Understanding the biofield

What is it, and what does it mean?

These illustrations of the cat, the grasshopper, and the flowers, show how the auric fields surrounding them would look to us if they were visible to our eyes. Some people with extrasensory perception are able to see this. Animals see these auric fields, and this capability gives them an essential source of information needed for understanding and responding to their environment.

The physical forms of living things are cradled within their own vibrational field of consciousness. When you look at plants, animals, and people, you are seeing the visible forms that have crystallized within the envelope of their non-visible force field. This invisible envelope is their bioenergy field, or auric field.

To people with psychic vision, the biofield, or aura, shows up as a translucent light around the physical body. The biofield includes the chakras, which are the psychic magnets that connect us together emotionally, and it includes the meridians, the slender rivers of light that flow throughout the body carrying vibrational information to the tissues. The biofield is brilliantly enhanced whenever you feel happy and successful. If your situation becomes difficult, the biofield contracts, and will create protective strategies to help you handle the difficulty.

Protective strategies, at one time essential, tend to continue long after the threatening situation is over. Out-dated reactions based upon the past can become a hindrance, and may limit your perception and narrow your choices, by drawing you into fear-based patterns that alter your biofield.

Your conscious mind is not usually aware of the uncomfortable messages your body-consciousness is holding. Stressful events, even those from a long time ago, can still maintain significant metabolic errors. After a time, these biochemical imbalances are likely to create distressing physical symptoms.

Metabolic errors take the form of enzyme repression, or inaccuracies in the way you are processing the biochemical cascades of your amino acids, even errors in the molecular construction of the cholesterol and the hormones. Changes in your physical process usually reflect emotional decisions, and can show up as a diverse array of health problems, allergies, depression, or digestive difficulty, muscle tension, or joint pain.

Toxic substances can also create many of these effects. Sometimes an uncomfortable symptom has no emotional basis at all, it might be due entirely to a toxic exposure, or an invasive microorganism. Once the toxin or the organism is identified, it can almost always be released.

Your body-consciousness still remembers exactly how to synthesize the required enzymes and hormones, how to utilize amino acids, how to initiate muscular movement, and how to maintain conscious awareness, no matter what adaptive dysfunction your body is experiencing.

Your inner knowledge is what engages internal healing forces. When you activate this force within you, and focus your intention, you can move toward self-healing. When you make a vibrational change, it sends a different wave-form to your physical structures. If you are receptive to change, it could have an impact that would create a cellular shift.

The biofield does not perceive your physical systems directly, nor can it predict with any certainty what changes will occur, or when, regarding your physical health. Sometimes unexpected things intervene, or perhaps you may be hesitant to allow yourself to make the shift. In that case more work would need to be done before you could experience a positive physical change.

Balancing Center practitioners always suggest that you connect with the medical system when there is any possibility that a medically treatable disease may be in process.
