Research accounts for the power of premonition in terms of brain wave synchronization and brain-heart synchrony.
In November 2003, writer John Jay Harper and his wife went to a movie in downtown Spokane. When they reached the top of the escalator on the 4th floor, John Jay Harper experienced an overwhelming urge to jump over the unguarded railing to the concrete floor some 40 feet below. Grasping his wife’s arm, he deliberately steered himself away from what he felt were “negative force fields” at the site. Four days later, the Harpers, on entering the same building, saw to their horror, the body of a man who had unaccountably leaped over the 4th floor railing onto the concrete entrance area below. Harper’s experience is an example of the power of premonition. Recent research accounts for this phenomenon in terms of brain entrainment and brain-heart synchrony. Brain EntrainmentIn 1665, Dutch mathematician Christiaan Huygens discovered that two of his pendulum clocks standing near each other had begun to swing in unison. He coined the word “entrainment” to explain the way oscillating systems tend to move in synchrony with each other. Physicists believe that exchanges of energy between two systems that are “out of sync” eventually bring them back “in sync” by speeding one system and slowing the other. When this happens, the receiver receives a premonition of the energy sent out by the sender. Synchronization of brain wave activity occurs when two people exchange energy in the form of thought. Brain Heart SynchronyStudies also indicate that the receiver “receives” the anticipated information a few seconds before the actual message. The human body has the ability to anticipate its future emotional state by reacting moments before the actual event itself. It is as though man has the power to be subliminally primed for a future event. Volunteers, wired to physiological monitors that recorded skin, heart rate and blood pressure, were shown randomly arranged pictures that elicited calm, shocking or arousing responses. Scientist Dean Radin discovered that his subjects registered physiological responses well before they saw the pictures. Dr. Rollin McClarty, director of research at the HeartMath Institute in Boulder Creek, California, located this power to receive “forebodings “of good or bad news in the receiver’s heart and brain system. The heart appears to be the first to receive the information, which it then forwards the message to the brain. Developing the Power of PremonitionIn his book on energy medicine, Dr. Peter Hanfileti speaks of energy exchanges that take place between children and parents, even when they are far apart. Parents attuned to the energy dynamics of their child are able to resonate and communicate more effectively with the child. Like any power that can be trained and developed, the power of premonition can be heightened through practice and use. Here are some guidelines.
Harper’s experience was a frightening one; however, there is comfort in knowing that the power of premonition can generate positive exchanges as well. Source:
