The word “heart” is an anagram
for the word “earth”. Hence, the
phrase “home is where the heart
is”.

Did you know that the human
heart is the organ that
generates the strongest
electromagnetic field of any
organ of the human body? In
fact, the electromagnetic field
of your heart can be measured up
to a few feet away from your
body. Furthermore,
this energy field changes in
relation to your emotions.
One thing you should know about
electromagnetic field is that
every organ and cell in your
body generate an energy field.
Because the heart generates the
strongest electromagnetic field,
the information stored in its
electromagnetic field affects
every organ and cell in your
body. Could this be why the
heart is the first organ to
function in a fetus? Besides
generating the strongest
electromagnetic field, the heart
has an intelligence of its own,
which is why certain
neurocardiologists refer to it
as the heart-brain or the fifth
brain.
According to neurocardiologists,
the heart is not only made of
muscle cells but also neurons.
Researchers at the Institute of
HeartMath have done experiments
proving that the heart’s role is
not limited to just pumping
blood. They believe it has
intelligence and plays a major
role in the perception of
reality.
Here is an excerpt from my book
Staradigm that talks about the
deeper roles of the heart:
The heart is one of the most
important organs in the human
body, because it is one of the
main mediums for connecting us
to each other and the Universe.
Conventional science has taught
us that the main role of the
heart is to pump blood to all
the systems of the body. This
definition of the heart is not
very accurate. Besides pumping
blood, the heart also has an
intelligence of its own.
According to neurocardiologists,
60 to 65 percent of heart cells
are neuron cells, not muscle
cells.1This discovery has helped
them to develop experiments that
have proved the heart works
similar to the brain and in some
ways is even superior to the
brain. This may be the reason
why the heart is the first organ
to function after conception.
Within about 20 days after
conception the heart starts to
function, but the brain does not
function until after roughly 90
days. This information tells us
that the brain is secondary to
the heart.
The Heart, Brain, and Feelings
The brain and the heart are
sometimes said to work in
opposition. We are constantly
trying to determine whether to
place more emphasis on our
thoughts or feelings. Rational
people would say that the mind
is the key to keeping us out of
trouble, as the mind thinks in
terms of what has the most
payoff and is quite possible the
safest or most calculated risk.
The heart on the other hand
allows us to feel what is best
at an internal level that
connects to our intuition.
Operating with either one of
these alone, only the mind or
the heart, can sometimes lead us
into trouble. The mind can be
afraid to seek happiness outside
of the comfort zone, and the
heart sometimes urges decisions
that are unknown and risky, but
using the two in balance can
bring great clarity to a person.
Follow the heart is a common
phrase that is tossed around,
but it is not necessarily easy
to enact. Follow the heart means
letting deep feelings draw us
one way or another without a
logical answer or obvious
reasoning. This organ provides a
feeling of intuition or
guidance, but we must have the
contentment and the confidence
to understand when it is pushing
us in a direction, and then act
upon this with complete faith in
the outcome. Our feelings are
what help us to understand the
world beyond logic and therefore
they are the keys to
understanding the spiritual
aspects of ourselves.
The Intelligence of the Heart
Some researchers and
neurocardiologists are pushing
the idea that the heart can
actually act like another brain,
helping to guide us with a
different form of intelligence.
Many physiological studies are
currently being done regarding
the interconnection of the heart
and the brain, and why certain
sensations and feelings are
experienced at the level of the
heart. Generally, love and
certain emotional states are
felt at the heart level,
producing different
physiological reactions of the
heart.
Heartbeats have been found to be
affected by inner states and
emotions, including disorder in
heart rhythms when we are
experiencing stress or negative
emotion. Conversely, when we are
feeling positively, the heart
rhythms are more cohesive and
beat more regularly and
steadily.
The nervous system of the heart
contains roughly 40,000 neurons
or sensory neurites. One of its
roles is to monitor the heart’s
hormones, neurochemicals, heart
rate, and pressure information.
The information of how these
chemicals behave is also sent to
the brain. The heart and brain
are always communicating through
the vagus nerve system and the
electromagnetic field of the
body. It is through this dynamic
communication process that the
consciousness of the heart can
change how the brain process
information. This process can
also affect how energy flows in
the body.
These findings indicate that the
heart works with the brain and
body, including the amygdala, to
process emotions and incorporate
emotional memories. The amygdala
is the part of the brain that
assists us in making decisions
about incoming information and
processing them based on our
past experiences. This shows a
link between the emotions and
feelings and the actual brain
and body physiology.
Other mental attitudes and
stress also affect the body and
our overall health, and these
issues can be linked to the
heart as well. Recent scientific
research has determined that the
emotions of anger, anxiety, and
other negative feelings can
significantly increase the risk
of heart disease. Therefore,
stressful situations and high
anxiety levels negatively affect
the heart as an organ.
Connecting the brain and the
heart as its own emotional
processing center is a topic
that many researchers are
focusing on. It has been shown
that emotions experienced
mentally will also manifest
physically in the body, and
feelings can affect the rhythms
and beating of the heart. The
best way to maintain a healthy
heart is to not only eat a
healthy diet, but also
incorporate meditation
techniques to balance the energy
of the heart and brain.
Why the Heart Holds the key to
World Peace
The heart helps us to understand
the world through feelings. It
allows us to understand our
reality in a universal kind of
way, giving us universal
characteristics. This biological
electromagnetic field generator
allows us to understand each
other at the emotional level and
beyond, giving us a sense of
connection to all things. This
emotional connection is what
creates bonding between
individuals.
When we learn how to think with
our hearts, it becomes easier
for us to understand others and
live in harmony with them. For
these reasons, the heart holds
the key to uniting humanity and
achieving world peace.
