Thinking is something all of us do plenty of every day.

The question is: How does our thinking effect how we “are”?  (Such as our state of health for example)

Generally speaking thinking comes in just two sizes: positive and negative.

Let’s take a quick look at positive thinking first.

According to author Deepack Chopra “thoughts become biology”. If this is true then it follows that if you’re consistently thinking negatively your body will be expressing this attitude in its own state of health. Indeed patients who have a poor outlook about their recovery seem to impede the healing process taking place within them

But positive thinking patients don’t always automatically do well just because they think good thoughts.

For example, after radical bone cancer treatment, one-legged cross-Canada runner Terry Fox, had to interrupt his “Marathon Of Hope” and was again back in hospital after cancer was found in his lungs. Publicly he always said that he would soon return to finish the run but, sadly, never did. He died soon afterwards at the age of just 23.

So, does how we “think” soon become how we “are” physically?

The jury is still out and the debate rages on.

Want my two cents?

I think it’s not just thought that can appear to affect our biology but the state of our nature. A positive nature is not quite the same domain as a mind that only works to positive think on demand.

Having a positive nature is way more organic. It is a state that is established more from what you ‘feel’ inside of you than what your head can think up. Compare the two and thinking just doesn’t cut it at all.

The old maxim I often quote here is the famous mantra “Be, Do, Have”. A state of “being” is a powerful thing not subject to the rapid changes often found in our thoughts or in the attitudes formed by them. Interestingly, a positive nature is something that as very young children we almost all possess.

In my H.E.R.O. workshops conducted over the last thirty years or so, I have witnessed many participants who have declared that they felt more youthful and indeed went on to become better at being themselves.  It seems that when we’re closer to a state of joy we are naturally more open to maintaining a healthy, more youthful body too.

Till next time, more power to you all.

Meet Max

This is Part 4 of a series. ( Part 1 / Part 2 / Part 3 )

For years he’s been a practicing cosmetic surgeon who spots an unusual trend. He can’t help but notice that, even though he performs hundreds of very successful operations, many of his patients remain depressed as if the physical improvements made to their faces had never happened. He decides to author a book and in it he describes his observations as well as his impressions about such things as self-image. He also details his thoughts about the unseen world of energy within us that he believes somehow directs the healing process.

The book he writes is titled Psycho-Cybernetics.

Max is Dr. Maxwell Maltz and when his book came out it soon became a best seller. People were very interested to learn more about building a good self-image. It played well in the age of angst that existed in the youth of the sixties and seventies.

This is an interesting book and one of the first that I picked up when I started my long journey that culminated in the creation of the H.E.R.O. Discover eMachine. Back then I really didn’t know what I was doing but, with the results that I observed in those who I convinced to use H.E.R.O. , I knew I was on to something.

Through reading books like this I became very interested in the twists and turns of human behavior. I was also quite taken by Maltz’s belief, which precisely echoed daVinci’s before him, that the physical body is a machine. He points out that he believed that man himself is NOT a machine but rather “the essence of man is that which animates this machine; that which inhabits the machine, directs and controls it, and uses it as a vehicle.“

He goes on to report that “individual scientists – psychologists, physiologists, biologists – have suspected that there was some sort of universal energy or vitality which ran the human machine.”

I was blown away. Here again I was seeing references to two distinct realities living as one. Another clear indication of a phenomenon that I’d been tracing back through history and on up to today. I was getting ever closer to the certainty that the ‘human mobius’ really existed. I became immersed in the search for more.

In my own work with H.E.R.O. I was also finding that there was a dividing line between these two realities. Most of the subjects that I persuaded to use H.E.R.O. reported soon afterward that they could feel an unusual energy-like feeling emanating from the gut region of the body that caused an odd and very subtle relaxation effect. I could see it in their faces . Although, like me they struggled to explain it, they went on to say that this feeling was like the excitement they had experienced as youth – perhaps even as children.

(Astoundingly, Dr. Maltz had stated in his book that further research involving this energy appeared to touch upon the fundamentals of ageing.)

The overall effect that seemed to be a common factor in all my participants is that they felt “happy” for no apparent reason except that they we’re alive. This “happy feeling” seemed to have an immediate buffering effect on any stress they had been experiencing in their lives. The benefits also seemed to persist for many years and were not dulled despite constant stress-producing challenges .  I can certainly attest to that.

My test subjects commonly reported being more adaptable in many situations requiring critical thinking. Problems got solved a lot faster than before and, they admitted, they were more productive at work. All this even though they hadn’t studied any “how to” information at all within the context of their personal H.E.R.O. seminar experience.

In my next post, the final installment in this series, I’ll introduce you to yet another eminent physician, a contemporary of Max’s, who will lend even more credence to the existence of this mysterious energy at play within all humans and yet more proof of this phenomenon.

Until then,

More power to you my friend.

David Parsons (aka Mobiusman)
