• Emotions will normally come and go in a natural way. However emotions can become locked into a persistent repeating pattern or 'tape loop', which may govern a person's behaviour.

• These tape loops act as 'information blockers' which may result in long-term errors in the body field and thus affect a person's health.

• Shocks of many types, stress, and tiredness can trigger new or re-trigger old emotional tape loops.

• A tape loop situation is indicated in the NES reports when a particular emotion is repeatedly indicated with a large score from one screening to the next.

Emotional Stress Release:

Microwave Oven Radiation  - Research indicates that microwave ovens used to heat food affect proteins in a way that can make them a possible form of toxin to the body.

Far Infrared Radiation - Far infrared is infrared light at the lower frequency range in the infrared spectrum. It is present naturally in sun light and is used for therapeutic and sauna applications.  It has been found to have an effect of linking disease centre foci and may affect the integrity of the body field. If this test gives a high reading then the body exposure to far infrared should be monitored.

Computer Radiation - The central processor units of modern personal computers operate at 1 to 3 Giga hertz frequencies. They also employ mechanical disk drives and fans which together output radiation at many levels, making a composite of many wavelengths.

Nuclear Radiation-fatigue due to atomic radiation exposure.

Blue Light - This reading indicates how much blue light the body field is able to tolerate. 
Blue light is part of the sunlight spectrum in the range between 380 and 490 nm. Our body reacts to blue light with high sensitivity in the range between 446 and 480 nm. Special retinal ganglion cells were found in the eyes in the deeper layers of the retina beyond the rods and cones. They sense the brightness of our environment and are directly connected to the SCN (suprachiasmatic nucleus) in the hypothalamus and produce a protein called melanopsin, which is mostly activated by wavelengths near 480 nm. Melanopsin starts a series of reactions influencing our sense of hunger, body temperature regulation, blood pressure regulation, heart frequency and how we register pain. How our brain reacts to the environment and has its knowledge about the circadian cycles (day and night rhythm) and the seasonal changes depends on the content of blue light in the environment. 
Modern artificial light from energy saving lamps and LCD/LED-screens contains much blue light. When we use this light in the evenings, we will not be able to activate melatonin and deep sleep at night for regeneration. Our hormone system will be affected including changes in cortisol and insulin production. It will also lead to low Vitamin D levels related with low DHEA levels and poor sleep. This would upset our metabolism and may be a cause of obesity, too. Too much blue light also reduces the DHA content in the cell membranes of our eyes. Macular degeneration might be a consequence. 
A high reading of blue light will indicate the need to reset the circadian cycle by creating a different environment in the evening and at night, reducing artificial light of any kind, or take the benefits of filtering blue light by using orange glasses when watching TV or working on computers.

• Vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are fundamental requirements for the body to function.
• Optimum health requires that nutrients are managed correctly.
• When nutrients are incorrectly metabolized, stored, and absorbed this affects both the biochemistry and the performance of the energy drivers and integrators of the Body Field.
• NES Infoceuticals are able to make corrections to the Body Field regardless of nutritional deficiencies but to maintain these corrections adequate nutritional levels are required.
• Biophysics suggests that nutritional issues are a result of environmental toxins interfering with the Body Field and hence inhibiting the proper uptake and balance of nutrients within cells all over the body.

Four percent of the human body is made from minerals. These minerals are elements that can be found in the periodic table, and are used mainly in the regulation and balancing of the body chemistry. The other major uses of minerals are in the constitution of bone, which requires calcium, phosphorus and magnesium, and in the control of water, which involves sodium and potassium. These five minerals are known as macro-minerals as relatively large amounts are needed every day (300-3000 mg). The other elements are known as trace minerals, as only small amounts are required (30mg - 30 mcg). All minerals are important in our diets, no matter how much or how little is required per day. If the body does not receive the minerals that it needs, then serious effects can occur.

B Vitamins are water-soluble and are needed on a daily basis. Collectively, they have many roles in keeping us healthy, such as immunity, hormonal balance, circulation, energy production, and stress regulation. Many B Vitamins are made in the small intestine.

Vitamin B1 - Thiamin may enhance circulation, helps with blood formation and the metabolism of carbohydrates. It is also required for the health of the nervous system and is used in the biosynthesis of a number of cell constituents, including the neurotransmitter acetylcholine and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). It is used in the manufacture of hydrochloric acid, and therefore plays a part in digestion.

It is also great for the brain and may help with depression and assist with memory and learning. In children it is required for growth and has shown some indication to assist in arthritis, and cataracts, as well as infertility.

Food sources of vitamin B1 - Sunflower seeds, peanuts, wheat bran, beef liver, pork, seafood, egg-yolk, beans all contain good amounts of thiamin. 

Vitamin B2 - Riboflavin is required by the body to use oxygen, and the metabolism of amino acids, fatty acids, and carbohydrates. Riboflavin is further needed to activate vitamin B6 (pyridoxine), helps to create niacin, and assists the adrenal gland. It may be used for red blood cell formation, antibody production, cell respiration, and growth.

It eases watery eye fatigue and may be helpful in the prevention and treatment of cataracts. Vitamin B2 is required for the health of the mucus membranes in the digestive tract, and helps with the absorption of iron, and vitamin B6.

Although it is needed for periods of rapid growth, it is also needed when protein intake is high, and is most beneficial to the skin, hair and nails.

Food sources of vitamin B2 - Organ meats, nuts, cheese, eggs, milk and lean meats are great sources of riboflavin, but is also available in good quantities in green leafy vegetables, fish, legumes, whole grains, and yogurt. 

Vitamin B3 - Nicotinic acid is required for cell respiration, helps in the release of energy, and metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, proper circulation and healthy skin, functioning of the nervous system, and normal secretion of bile and stomach fluids. It is used in the synthesis of sex hormones, treating schizophrenia and other mental illnesses, and a memory-enhancer.

Nicotinic acid (but not nicotinamide) given in drug dosage improves the blood cholesterol profile, and has been used to clear the body of organic poisons, such as certain insecticides. People report more mental alertness when this vitamin is in sufficient supply.

Food sources of vitamin B3 -Liver, lean meat, poultry, fish, rabbit, nuts, peanut yeast, meats including liver, cereals, legumes, asparagus, seeds, milk, green leafy vegetables, and fish. 

Vitamin B5 - Pantothenic Acid plays an important role in the secretion of hormones, such as cortisone because of the role it plays in supporting the adrenal gland. These hormones assist the metabolism, help to fight allergies, and are beneficial in the maintenance of healthy skin, muscles and nerves.

Pantothenic acid is also used in the release of energy as well as the metabolism of fat, protein and carbohydrates. It is used in the creation of lipids, neurotransmitters, steroid hormones and haemoglobin.  Some are of the opinion that pantothenic acid is also helpful to fight wrinkles as well as graying of the hair.

Food sources of vitamin B5 - Beef, brewer's yeast, eggs, fresh vegetables, kidney, legumes, liver, mushrooms, nuts, pork, royal jelly, saltwater fish, torula yeast, whole rye flour, and whole wheat.

Vitamin B6 - Pyridoxine is required for the balancing of hormonal changes in women as well as assisting the immune system and the growth of new cells. It is also used in the processing and metabolism of proteins, fats and carbohydrates, while assisting with controlling your mood as well as your behaviour. Pyridoxine might also be of benefit for children with learning difficulties, as well as assisting in the prevention of dandruff, eczema and psoriasis.

It assists in the balancing of sodium and potassium as well promotes red blood cell production. It is further involved in the nucleic acids RNA as well as DNA. It is further linked to cancer immunity and fights the formation of the toxic chemical homocysteine, which is detrimental to the heart muscle.

Women in particular may suffer from pre-menstrual fluid retention, severe period pains, emotional PMS symptoms, premenstrual acne and nausea in early pregnancy. Mood swings, depression as well as loss of sexual drive is sometimes noted when pyridoxine is in short supply and the person is on hormone replacement therapy or on birth control pills.

Food sources of vitamin B6 - Good sources to obtain pyridoxine from are brewer's yeast, eggs, chicken, carrots, fish, liver, kidneys, peas, wheat germ, walnuts.  

Vitamin B8 - Biotin is used in cell growth, the production of fatty acids, metabolism of fats, and proteins. It plays a role in the Krebs cycle, which is the process in which energy is released from food. Biotin is also indicated for healthy hair and skin, healthy sweat glands, nerve tissue, and bone marrow, and assisting with muscle pain. Vitamin B8 not only assists in various metabolic chemical conversions, but also helps with the transfer of carbon dioxide. Biotin is also helpful in maintaining a steady blood sugar level.

Food sources of vitamin B8  - is present in cheese, beef liver, cauliflower, eggs, mushrooms, chicken breasts, salmon, spinach, brewer's yeast, nuts and can be manufactured in the body should a small shortfall occur.

Vitamin B9 - Folic acid is required for DNA synthesis and cell growth and is important for red blood cell formation, energy production as well as the forming of amino acids. Folic acid is essential for creating heme, the iron containing substance in haemoglobin, crucial for oxygen transport.

It is important for healthy cell division and replication, since its involvement as coenzyme for RNA and DNA synthesis. It is also required for protein metabolism and in treating folic acid anaemia. Folic acid also assists in digestion, and the nervous system, and works at improving mental as well as emotional health. This nutrient may be effective in treating depression and anxiety.Shortage of folic acid may be indicated with diarrhoea, heartburn and constipation. Folic acid is very important in the development of the nervous system of a developing foetus.

Food sources of vitamin B9 - Fresh green vegetables, such as spinach and broccoli contain folic acid. It is also found in fruit, starchy vegetables, beans, whole grains and liver. 

Vitamin B11 - Choline assists in controlling your weight as well as cholesterol levels, keeping cell membranes healthy and in preventing gallstones. It is also most useful in the maintenance of the nervous system, assisting memory and learning, and may help to fight infections, including hepatitis and AIDS. Choline is critical for normal membrane structure and function. Choline is the major precursor of betaine, and it is used by the kidneys to maintain water balance and by the liver as a source of methyl-groups for methionine formation. It is also used to produce the important neurotransmitter acetylcholine. It assists in nerve impulse transmission, gallbladder regulation, liver functions and lecithin production.

Food sources of vitamin B11- Choline is found in egg yolks, beef, wheat germ, oats, nut.

Vitamin B12 - Cobalamin is needed in the manufacture of red blood cells and the maintenance of red blood cells and it stimulates appetite, promotes growth and release energy. It is often used with older people to give an energy boost, assist in preventing mental deterioration and helps with speeding up thought processes.

Some people are also of the opinion that it helps with clearing up infections and provide protection against allergies and cancer. This vitamin is also used in the metabolism of fats, proteins and carbohydrates.

Food sources of vitamin B12 - Vitamin B12 is present in liver, organ meat, muscle meat, shellfish, eggs, cheese, fish, and can be manufactured in the body. Although milk contains B12, processing of milk may lead to destruction of the vitamin. 

The indicator for Metabolism on the NES report screen shows the highest reading within the subcategories of: Base Metabolic rate, pH Balance, Carbohydrate Metabolism and Glucose Metabolism. It is not a separate indicator for Metabolism itself.

Metabolism is the set of chemical reactions that occur in living organisms in order to maintain life. These processes allow organisms to grow and reproduce, maintain their structures, and respond to their environments. Metabolism is usually divided into two categories. Catabolism breaks down large molecules, for example to harvest energy in cellular respiration. Anabolism, on the other hand, uses energy to construct components of cells such as proteins and nucleic acids.

The chemical reactions of metabolism are organized into metabolic pathways, in which one chemical is transformed into another by a sequence of enzymes. Enzymes are crucial to metabolism because they allow organisms to drive desirable but thermodynamically unfavourable reactions by coupling them to favourable ones. Enzymes also allow the regulation of metabolic pathways in response to changes in the cell's environment or signals from other cells.

The speed of metabolism, the metabolic rate, also influences how much food an organism will require.

Base Rate Metabolism - This is a metabolic field test for those whose metabolism may be affected by the environmental toxins that affect the function of the cells of the body, the liver, and the thyroid and pancreas. 

pH or Acid-Alkaline Balance of the Body Fluids - This is an indicator that the pH balance of the body may be incorrectly regulated. Addressing this issue involves balancing liver function (an important organ for pH regulation).

Carbohydrate Metabolism - The carbohydrate metabolic function can be addressed by correcting energetic field for the Small Intestine, and for the pancreas and stomach.

Glucose Metabolism - This is not the test for blood sugar regulation, but for the actual efficacy of glucose metabolism within the body cells. We have found it to be impeded by the environmental pollutants Dioxins and Allethrins.

The primary purpose of this report is to give indications for the need to reduce acute reactions, improve sensitivities, aid absorption of nutrients, and regulate sugars. Intolerances can be viewed as incorrect immune system response to food particles due to environmental pollution that has accumulated in their gut. The 4 main reports are:

• Lactose - this is an indicator of the ability to produce enzymes to digest lactose.
• Gluten - this is an indicator of the ability to produce enzymes to digest Gluten.
• Non-Fixed Allergens - a general indicator to food intolerances and sensitivities through incorrect immune system reactions to food particles generally which is often due to toxic build up in the digestive tract.
• Sugar regulation - this is an indicator of the ability to correctly regulate blood sugars.

Core beliefs are usually formed during childhood and represent deeply rooted convictions about who we perceive ourselves to be, and how we view the world at large. They form a personal perception of the truth that influences the way we shape and colour what we see, hear, and feel. Core beliefs have a profound influence on what we allow to happen in our lives and how life events are interpreted.

Core beliefs can be empowering or limiting.These beliefs may become an issue if there is:

• A lack of conviction of the empowering aspect.

• A dominance of the limiting aspect.

• Unstable convictions that fluctuate between empowering and limiting.

Core beliefs are immensely powerful aspects of the human psyche, mostly existing at the subconscious level. These beliefs can empower activity. Conversely they may lead to obstacles in life, poor self-esteem, and / or distrust of others. Becoming aware of core beliefs, questioning the purpose of these subconscious programs, listening to how our internal dialogue interprets our life events and our capabilities, can lead to a deeper understanding of our experiences. This can be a powerful tool for self-acceptance and growth.

The use of tools such as Constitutional Homeopathic Treatment, Hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique, or Neural Linguistic Programming may be used to successfully transform self-limiting, counterproductive, and restrictive beliefs. True health is the freedom to live in the moment, experiencing positive flow, contentment, and fulfillment.

I am lovable / I am unloved (Self Acceptance) - Love is an inner experience and is something that exists within everyone. Love is a gift we can choose to send to others. Sending love allows us to receive and experience love for our self. When we put conditions on how we allow love into our lives we experience suffering. A useful affirmation is " I am loved, loving, and lovable."

 I am perfect / I am flawed (Self Judgment) - We are all perfect just as we are, however our actions and behaviour may not be perfect. These can be refined and evolved. It may be our beliefs about perfection that are flawed. A useful affirmation is "I release the burden of striving for perfection."

 I am significant / I am insignificant (Self Worth) – what is significant to one person may be insignificant to another; it is a matter of choice and perspective. In the universe everything is interconnected, nothing exists in isolation. Everyone is a significant part of the whole. A useful affirmation is " I am a worthwhile person with valuable contributions to make."

I am unaffected by what others think of me / People must think well of me (Self Confidence) – What others think of our behaviour and personality is based on their beliefs and values. How we feel about ourselves is a personal choice. Accepting ourselves for who we are allows us to accept others for who they are. A useful affirmation is " I am free to be myself."

I can be helped / I am helpless (Self Growth) – A healthy environment is one that is one that supports growth and positive change. Being prepared to accept assistance opens up opportunities for a supportive environment to be found. A useful affirmation is " I build on my strengths."

My life is full of hope / I am hopeless (Competence) – All things in the universe are in a process of change; nothing is fixed. Hope is the capacity of looking into the future for positive change. Despair is denying the prospect of positive change. Accepting yourself and your situation in a non-judgmental way accelerates the movement towards a positive outcome.  A useful affirmation is " Fundamentally all is well."

I can trust / I must be in control (Freedom) – The more we control things the more our life is governed by the very things we seek to control. Trust is the opposite of fear.  The need for control often stems from our fears. A useful affirmation is "I let go and trust that it is all happening perfectly."

I am capable / I am incapable (Self Ability) – Being realistic abut our capacity and our abilities is important. Being aware of why we believe we have limitations is also important. A useful affirmation is " I am capable and worthy."

I am good / I am bad (Integrity) – We are all individuals doing the best we can within our circumstances. Goodness resides in all of us. Sometimes our thoughts or actions may be judged to be bad. Be aware of who is doing the judging and against what standard. A useful affirmation is " I use my personal power wisely."

Something good will happen / Something bad will happen (Intention) – something will always happen. Where we put our intention and what we look for will influence our interpretation of what happens. A useful affirmation is " As I cultivate myself, all else follows."

I feel safe in the world / The world is a dangerous place (Security) – Feeling in danger brings a sense of isolation. Feeling safe is a process of trusting ourselves and others, and feeling connected to a greater whole. Fear is the process of predicting the future, and from the many possible options magnifying the worst outcomes. A useful affirmation is " Nothing and no one in this universe is against me."

I can trust people / People will take advantage of me (Trust) – The better we know our true nature the more we can trust ourselves and have the confidence to be who we are. The more confidence and trust we have in ourselves the less likely it is that others will be able to take advantage of us. A useful affirmation is " I recognize trust and follow my intuition."

I feel supported by others / People are out to get me (Self Support) – Being in a vulnerable position exposes a unprotected aspect of our psyche. Acknowledging, accepting, and examining our vulnerabilities will open us to opportunities to mature. A useful affirmation is " It is safe for me to express my thoughts and feelings."

All is fair / Life is not fair (Justice) – Life will give us many experiences and opportunities. Acknowledgment and gratitude facilitates our getting what we need and want.  Obstacles offer opportunities for growth. A useful affirmation is " Every adversity has the seed of an equal or greater benefit."

I am forgiven / I am unforgivable (Self Forgiveness) – The consequence of out actions may remain but we have the capacity to forgive others and ourselves. Forgiveness is an unconditional process that imbues our past with love and understanding enabling us to move more freely in the present. A useful affirmation is " As I feel forgiveness, I cultivate compassion."

I am OK as I am / something must change for me to be OK (Self Acceptance) – Accepting ourselves for who we are and not who we want to be brings us into contact with our true selves. Self-acceptance is essential for a feeling of contentment. A useful affirmation is " Loving myself nurtures healing in my life."

I can be loved just as I am / I must be perfect to be loved (Self Love) – Accepting ourselves for who we are allows the love that resides within us to shine through. A useful affirmation is " I am loved, loving, and lovable."

I am good enough as I am / I am not good enough (Self Judgment) – Judging ourselves and others is filtered through acquired beliefs and values. If we could really see ourselves clearly we would realize we are perfectly good the way we are. A useful affirmation is " I am whole and unique, just the way I am."

Understand Your World ( Sections 1 -11)

1 – Enquirer - Understanding, Roots, Openness, Skills, Passions

Enquiry encourages us to look at the world and to look at ourselves.

When we look outward we observe the repetitive cycles of nature. The repeating, cyclic pattern in nature is fractal; the same pattern repeats itself on both larger and smaller scales. Since we are part of nature we can observe nature’s patterns within our own bodies; the cyclic beat of the heart compares with the cyclic rotation of the Earth, which is responsible for the cycle of night and day; the spiral nature of our DNA is comparable to the spiral motion of the galaxies and even the swirl of water currents. Blood vessels resemble river deltas; neural networks in the brain resemble super clusters in the galactic cosmos. The overall oscillatory nature of life and biology can even be compared with the oscillatory behaviour of subatomic particles.

As well as finding fractals of nature’s structures inside our bodies we also find that our life experiences follow fractal patterns. This is because we are subject to nature’s cyclic influences. To take one example , body chemistry is affected by the cycle of night and day, which is a consequence of the Earth’s rotation. This gives us periodic changes in the hormone melatonin which regulates our sleep. And so as nature runs its patterns, we can expect similar kinds of patterns in our lives. This is a factor on both a personal and global scale in why events repeat themselves.

Through being an enquirer we can learn to appreciate how the outside world is linked to our inner world.

In even more fundamental ways, the entire universe is interconnected. This is described through the phenomenon known as entanglement. We are in constant interaction with the world. We exchange energy and information with it. Every choice we make therefore has consequences.

Enquiry also shines light on the contents of our minds. The oracle at Delphi exhorted us to `Know Thyself`

Through inquiry we can become more aware of how we feel about certain things, how we behave in certain situations, and even why we think the way we do. We can learn more about our skills, our inner motivations, our loves, our fears, and even our deepest hopes and dreams. Honest inquiry requires openness with one’s self but leads to more meaning experiences.

Deeper inquiry also shows us  life reflects our own thoughts, beliefs, loves and fears back at us, so by observing our personal world we can learn more about ourselves, providing us with a powerful way too change things around us merely by altering what’s  in our minds.

2 – Creator – Holographic Reality, Self-responsibility, Manifestation, Projections, Power, Confidence, Resourcefulness

We are creators of much of our own experiences in life. Many achievements began as ideas in people’s minds.

We can think of the ideas and its achievement as the same pattern, only existing on different scales.  Just as fractal patterns exist on different scales in nature, so to do our thoughts and our reality. Our thoughts “scale up” in time just as fractal patterns grow in time. Picture how a tree grows.

In many ways, we may think of our lives as projections of our ideas – of our imaginations. The world is a holographic projection of the mind.

With this empowering ideas part of being a creator is to stretch our imagination and conceive of new, greater possibilities for our lives which can then be projected outwards to become our reality.

As we observe the creative process at play, it gives us self-belief and confidence that we can achieve great heights. As we think – so we create.

With this in mind, we need to take responsibility for our lives if we want to move forward. A person who consistently blames others, the universe, or bad luck for their situation is less likely to have the ability to change their circumstances. Blaming puts the capacity to change our lives outside of ones’ self. It presupposes that other people, God, or the universe, are the architects of our lives and that we are therefore puppets whose strings are pulled against our wishes.

Taking responsibility for our lives places the power back into our own hands. It’s saying “My life is up to me from this moment on.”

It’s easy to take responsibility for the good stuff in our lives. But it is harder to accept the negative stuff. We when we lose out on something, it takes courage to look at ourselves and ask if we did all we could do; if we had the correct mindset.

Taking responsibility for negative experiences is not about blaming ourselves for our past mistakes. In the past we might not have been fully aware of the power we had to shape our lives. We have been merely children in the Creator sense. Responsibility is not about looking back. It’s about looking forward and saying  “What can I do now that I am in charge of my own life?”

Of course there are events and circumstances in life that are part of larger patterns of which we are not the sole creators. Many people are also born into situations and locations where there are fewer opportunities. But even in these circumstances, as creators we recognize that we have the power to choose who we are going to be, regardless of the context to create ourselves.

3- Endings – Impermanence, Transformation, End of a Cycle, Change, Death of Ego

The only constant in life is Change.

Everything is changing, always has changed, and will always change in one way or another. Nature flows and changes and we are part of it so our lives also change. When we get comfortable with the idea of change, that what we are doing and experiencing is impermanent, then we don’t waste as much mental and emotional effort resisting change. We can let things change and flow with them as they do so.

Think of change as evolution. With every new piece of knowledge every new experience we become more than we were before.  We gain wisdom.

Reality is filled with cycles and a cycle must by its very nature come to an end then begin anew.

From the very small to the very large life operates in cycles. 1the heart beats, we breathe in and out, the Moon orbits the Earth, and the Sun orbits the \milky Way. This is nature and you are part of it. You cannot be separate from nature. Think of nature’s cycles like waves on the surface of water. Life is like being on a boat. It is lifted n dropped by the waves. One cannot disentangle one’s self from nature.

Instead you can start to appreciate that just as nature’s cycles end and new ones begin so many aspects of your life flow cyclic patterns. With this realization you can become more comfortable with the idea of impermanence.

Cycles also present us with opportunities especially as a cycle ends and a new one begins. As creators we can make choices in our lives to let go of old aspects of ourselves that no longer serve who we are or what we wish to become. We can choose to leave a cycle behind. In this way the cycles of life can spiral upwards. We still experience patterns and cycles around us but they move in an upwards direction.

Many people are fearful of change because it represents the end of something that may seem comfortable or safe. We may face resistance from others as we go through a process of change as change for us may have an impact on them. Our ideas and even our sanity may be questioned. If one is not committed to the change and resonates with the doubts of others, one may be rendered less capable of making the change and thus find one’s self repeating old patterns.

So as we prepare to change it can be useful to expect resistance so that we can mentally equip ourselves with empathy for the concerns of others, and also the determination to strive for forward movement.

4 – Forgiveness – Self-forgiveness, Acceptance, Harmony

Forgiveness can set you free. You can forgive yourself and you can forgive others.

We tend to be our own harshest critic and judge. Many people beat themselves for even the smallest mistake, being harder on themselves than they are on others. This can be painful. This is why forgiving is one of the most powerful things we can do. Forgiveness sets us free from the invisible bonds that bind us to the past, restricting happiness and fulfilment.

Many people carry hurts from their past; memories of regrets, failures, bad behaviour and misdemeanors. The goal is to forgive both ourselves and others. We also need to be able to let go of anger. Anger blocks our ability to forgive and distorts how we see things.

As creators we take responsibility for our lives so we see each situation as an opportunity to grow and move beyond our fears and limitations, enabling ourselves to become increasingly whole.

A choice to forgive can be a declaration of personal freedom. It is not about excusing the behaviour of others or letting them off the hook. It is about freeing oneself and moving forward. It is a choice, and a gift we give to our self.

5 – Ask Questions – Detachment, Observation, Patterns, Interconnection, Affect

Asking questions can unlock the world for us. Research helps us find the answers we need in our lives.

It helps us gain a wider perspective of the world, helping us to spot trends, identify directions of currents of change, giving us the opportunity to paddle with current rather than against them, staying ahead of change rather than reacting to it.

We also learn that rather than trying to create everything we want, that some currents pf change and growth in the world are more favoured than others, more supported by nature – so researching and asking questions helps us select those that are most supported.

There is a skill to be learned in asking the right questions. In time, we become an expert on knowing which questions to ask and therefore the information we gain becomes even more poignant.

We might ask questions through researching in books, media or through the internet, and we can also ask questions of others. A natural sides-effect of the latter is that it can help us connect with each other, which is healthy in and of itself.  Scientific research for instance shows that we are genetically wired to connect with each other. It is natural with us and leads to greater quality of life.

Through the connections we forge we become part of various social networks through which information travels thus opening broader avenues through which to receive the answers we seek. We become part of a circuit where information flows.

There is no shame in asking questions of people. Some people see asking as a form of failure, a shortcoming within them if they can’t find the answers. However asking questions is a wise and intelligent act. The benefits gained from researching and asking questions far outweigh any slight’s to one’s pride.

Not only is there a skill in asking the right question, there is a skill to be learned in listening to the answers we receive. We need to be open and receptive to answers without bias. Of course we needn’t blindly accept everything we learn. We must continue to question, thus developing the knack of separating wheat from chaff and developing true discernment.

6 – Empathy – Feeling, Sensing, Matching, Ego-less Worldview, Understanding

As we start to ask questions of the world around us, we discover that through having empathy with others we are able to gain deeper insight and understanding of others and their points of view. This improves the answers we receive and helps to build a solid foundation for relationships with others.

Empathy is the ability to mutually experience the thoughts, emotions, and direct experience of others. It goes beyond sympathy, which is a feeling of care and understanding for the suffering of others.

We need to cultivate empathy on a personal scale as well as within society at large. It helps us to see situations from another person’s perspective and understand that most people are suffering in some way in this life. With empathy we can solve many of our own problems and society’s as well. A lack of empathy can fracture relationships   and create emotional distance and misunderstanding.

When young children learn empathy it makes them more responsible adults and sets them up for better quality relationships. Empathy lends harmony to one`s life.

Empathy is natural to us. It’s wired in the brain; however our own experiences in life can dampen it. We learn to judge others because judgement constantly surrounds us.  We learn to create reasons why this person does or does not deserve this or that. An important part of our journey is to unlearn the act of judging others. Empathy is a crucial part of life in this regard. Empathy helps us to build solid relationships in our own lives and in society. It facilitates interconnectedness. This helps us to be able to recognize patterns, and how to align ourselves with them.

Empathy also facilitates emotional contagion; others “catch” our positive moods from us.

Empathy might be viewed as a kind of fractal entanglement, the state in quantum physics wherein one particle is intimately connected with another – through empathy we become entangled with the emotional state of others.

As emotional “contagion” also facilitates the possibility of carrying other people’s emotional baggage. We need to find balance and set boundaries when we define our emotional responsibilities in both our social, and our intimate relationships.

7 – Intuition – Gut instinct, Psychic ability, Pattern recognition

Intuition is natural to us. It draws upon many of the cues around us that are outside our conscious awareness or focus. We draw upon information from our environment, from people around us, from their behaviour patterns, from information we glean from many sources, even from things we learned in the past.

Even though information might be outside your present conscious awareness your mind draws on it when you are seeking an answer or focusing on a goal.  The result can be a feeling of intuition, a source of positive information about life, guiding us to possible choices we can make.

Just as anything improves with practice, so in time does intuition become a reliable source of guidance .

It can help us to recognize patterns where none seem to exist.

It can help us achieve our goals by keeping us on the right path. If we have a strong sense of purpose and we are pursuing a goal then we will frequently absorb information that is relevant to the goal. Though much of the data may seem to be forgotten our intuition draws upon it and we can get a feeling regarding which action to take or which path to pursue. Intuition can help us to make the decisions that are best for us.

Not all feelings are intuitions though. Some feelings are based on fear or false beliefs. We need to be discerning. We need to learn the difference between intuition and wishful thinking or even intuition and fear.

It takes confidence to trust intuition but by understanding that intuition is natural and it is the brain making sense of the information around us, when we focus  on the answers we seek we can learn to be more confident about our hunches.

It is important to develop intuition but it is not enough on its own. We need balance. Through combining the four ways of understanding our world- asking questions, having empathy, intuition and paying attention to signs – we are able to effectively synthesize the intelligence  of the head with the understanding of the heart.

8 – Signs

Reality is always giving us signs of the future and our role in it. Signs exist because of the fractal nature of reality. This means that what is about to unfold is also revealed in small ways in the present. This is especially important if you are aligned with a pattern in society that is about to unfold. You will see signs in your everyday life.

As we engage with our reality, we start to notice that reality is always answering our questions and that synchronistic answers exist everywhere.

If you look for the signs you can act on them, always staying ahead of change instead of reacting to it.

But one is also cautioned not to be obsessively looking everywhere for signs, misreading everything as a sign. One cultivates a relaxed awareness that reality around you reflects the answers you seek in both direct and symbolic ways.

9 – Destiny – On track, Fractal Scaling, Fate, Consequence           

Think of destiny as a point along a river and there is a current that you have paddled into on your canoe that pulls you toward that point.

Think of these currents as patterns in society, patterns of growth or learning, business or technology. If a person is aligned with a pattern (current) they go where the pattern goes, just as the current guides your canoe. The pattern has a destiny, in that if has an overall direction and end point. So when we are aligned with get carried along with it so that our destiny becomes wrapped up in the pattern to which we are aligned.

One of the ways that fractal patterns grow and carry us with them, that our creative thoughts become reality, is that behaviour is contagious. People follow other people or are inspired by them and thus they become aligned with the same patterns too. Others follow and in time the number of people aligned with an idea increases and so the pattern scales up (aligning with the pattern) and as the pattern scales up we are carried along to the bigger thing – perhaps even to a height previously unimagined.

Can we change our destiny? Of course - the future is not set in stone! It is merely the direction of the pattern with which we are aligned. If we make a choice to align with a different current then we experience a new destination. (Destiny-ation?)

Indeed some approaches to quantum physics consider the future to be “probabilistic” in that the future ahead is only a probability, just as a dice has a certain probability of landing on a specific number. Some events have a higher probability of occurring than others. We can always make different choices thus changing the future as we go along. This applies to both our personal future as well as the future of the planet.

10 – Illusions – Off track, Delusion, Ignorance, Ego, Enslavement

If we don’t understand our world we can become deluded into believing all of our own thoughts and become disconnected from reality and the world around us.

This can pull us off track in that we move away from the path towards what we seek in our life, because our delusions align us with a different pattern.

Many people are unaware of living such an illusion. We can sometimes spot when we are off track because life becomes less fluid and more stressful. Sometimes we repeat negative patterns where we move from one set of circumstances only to find ourselves in a different place but repeating the same pattern.

The good news is that once we notice this, we can recognize that we haven’t fully understood our world. We can address this by taking steps to align ourselves with a different pattern through a change in our thinking. We can choose a pattern that serves our ambitions and aspirations. Changing tracks is then about taking responsibility and making a choice to go in a different direction.

The challenge is to notice when we are not on track and to mark what it is about our thinking, believing, emotions or even our actions that is not congruent to making the necessary changes inside ourselves so that we move onto the right track.

11 – Understand Your World – Self-assured, Knowledge, Aware, Mastery

When you understand your worlds you understand yourself and where you are heading. You are more self-assured. You are the master of your own world and you are ready to expand your horizons taking your life to another level.

You now have the understanding of the nature of cycles and patterns in life and therefore can choose more easily your direction in life and align your purpose.

You also understand how your outside world reflects your inner world. There is great power in this because you no longer walk through life with dark glasses obscuring your view.

Understanding your world helps you to appreciate the patterns and trends in the world, and you understand the needs and desires of others. You are able to see that life naturally moves in the directions of serving those needs. Therefore you can appreciate that when you align your purpose in life with this direction then your own life will be carried by the pattern as it grows.

This is the time to be aware of how far you have come, how much you have understood about your inner and outer world. It is time to reflect on your strengths and make decisions about your future.

Align Your Purpose (Sections 12-18)

12 – Choice Point – Turning Point, Window, Opportunity

Everyone is aligned with patterns whether they are aware of them or not, and we follow the currents of the fractal patterns to which we are aligned.

This awareness can present us with a Choice Point. Do we want to continue on this path or do we seek to make a change?

A Choice Point is that window of opportunity where you can make a choice between repeating the same kind of thinking and behaviours of the past, or to think differently and be different. A Choice Point is a window of opportunity where you have the chance to align yourself with harmonious patterns in the world - those that serve the needs and desires of humanity.

We can choose a new future, a new destiny or path that may not have been previously available to us.

We might choose to change only some aspects of our life, those aspects that feel off-track, that don’t fully represent our skills, abilities, and passions.

We align with new fractal patterns in three key ways: first through our minds, where we absorb information from books,  TV, conversations with people. As we focus our minds on this content we become aligned with that pattern.  Secondly (and more powerful) is when we align with our heart, where we feel the emotion of actually being part of this new world to which we are aligning. The third way is with our bodies, where we actually perform the actions and behaviours that align us.

When we make a choice at the Choice Point we adopt these three ways and move forward into the new current aligning ourselves with our newly chosen destination.

13 - Humility – Tolerance, Serve others, Interdependence, Selfless, Letting Go, Surrender, Universal flow

As we start to recognize the greater forces at play in bringing us through a Choice Point, life often invites us to gain humility.

As we end a cycle in our lives and begin another there is potential for some of our old world to dissolve or collapse.

This is because nature follows cycles, and these cycles are not just circles that come back to the same place again, but cycles that actually move through time more like spirals. They can go up or down. This is what we call Universal Flow because the universe is expanding and we as part of it are expanding also.

Thinking of life as fractal cycles of expansion as a cycle in our life approaches an end it involves reorganizing onto a higher level. This shift often means letting go of many of our old ways to facilitate this.

When we are aware of the nature of cycles and how we align with patterns in life, or if we resist going with the flow these changes can be a shock to the system. We can be faced with a crisis or a series of crises. The experience can be humbling as we recognize the force of nature pulling us to a higher level.

Opportunity always lies hidden amid crises. From a place of humility we can let go of resistance. We can surrender to the flow. Here lies an opportunity to learn non-attachment, to let go of our attachment to things being a certain way.

Ultimately letting go of attachment to all things material and ego-based produces deep peace and freedom.

Since the universe is expanding we can consider that the universal flow will pull us towards expansion since we are interconnected and interdependent. Interconnection is a fractal phenomenon present on all levels from the quantum to the cosmic. Expansion can be expressed in serving others, in helping them expand, and thus in this way we all expand. We are invited to move from looking out for ourselves to understanding - It`s about ALL of us. We can transcend self-interest.

This helps us align with a much more powerful fractal pattern in the human experience that takes all of us in the direction of well-being.

14 – Wake Up – Realization, Rebirth, Rising, Integration

At a Choice Point in our lives we need to fully wake up to what we are doing and where we are going with our lives. It is time to rise up and integrate all we know about our world and our part in its creation. We need to fully choose between continuing the in the cycle of which we are a part, or moving along a better path, a path that provides a much more consciously fulfilling journey for us.

Life is offering a wake-up call to notice what is happening around us. We have the choice to repeat the past or to do something different. We have an opportunity for rebirth – a new self with a new future.

For some people this wake-up comes in the form of an unfulfilling relationship, a crisis, a financial scare, a career setback, or it might even be the end of one’s line of work.  There are myriad indications that it is time to wake up and take control of one’s life.

For many people the rebirth is a time to start over with a stronger foundation and purpose. For others the wake up can lead to them feeling desperate especially if they view their current life through the eyes of the past. Some can feel hopeless. But if stock is taken of all that has been learned thus far one can be encouraged that the move is towards an expanded state. The wake-up call is an opportunity to change and fully grasp within one’s heart and one’s mind the possibility of a better future.

We need to step fully into the future with energy, passion, and conviction. It is time to no longer merely talk about the future – It is time to actually create it.

It is time to be fully conscious of what we can do to shape our lives, and then we must act to shape it.

15 – Define Your Purpose – Clarity, Vision, Centered

Now that you understand the patterns in your world and how to create your life through the patterns o which you align, you’ll want to engage your understanding and wisdom in defining your purpose.

In Stage One of understanding your world as the enquirer you set out researching your world based on your passions interest and skills. Now that you’ve understood your world and know where your patterns are going you can begin to more clearly define your purpose so that when you take action it will be aligned with the patterns that are most likely to scale up where you wish to be heading. I makes sense to choose to apply your passions in a direction that supports the desires and needs of the world in a harmonious way, since these needs and desires will form the patterns in the future. Defining your purpose is about clearly setting a direction for your life, and applying your skills towards a goal.

A purpose can be anything that inspires you, anything that feels right for you. It doesn’t necessarily require a total transformation of your life. Many people can align their purpose by merely making some small changes of focus within their existing life.

A feeling that we are not aligned is often felt as stress. Defining our purpose doesn’t need to be scary. It is merely aligning ourselves with what feels right to us and then ACTING on it.

 16 – Align Your Purpose - Harmony, Direction, Focus, Patterns

Align with purpose means that now we’ve understood our world and we have defined our purpose to be in harmony with our understanding of where patterns are going, we now must engage, take action, and fully align with purpose in the direction the patterns are going.

We need to ensure that our desires are in harmony with what people want because patterns are made up of thousands and in many cases millions of people with the same needs and desires.

If you apply your purpose to align it with a harmonious pattern then you will move with it a s it grows as it serves more and more people. The stronger your alignment, the more your own growth is pulled along with the patterns. Aligning your purpose in this way ensures that it takes much less effort to accomplish your goal (than if you align with a pattern that is not harmonious and does not serve the needs of large numbers of people). It’s like being buoyed upward rather than having to do all the paddling by oneself.

The most harmonious patterns are the ones that serve the needs of many people. So when you align with a pattern that serves a genuine needs expect to be supported in it.

We can predict that there is a pattern moving toward greater connectedness. This is because crises are solved through cooperation; that how nature works and how our ancient ancestors survived and evolved. Communication is a demonstration on interconnectedness.



17 – Engage With Passion – Sacrifice, Energy, Concentration, Goals, Drive, Determination

Even though we align ourselves with purpose and the universal flow supports it, it may not necessarily come easy. There can be challenges especially if we need to change within to keep pace with the process. However stress and difficulty can be a choice. We can just as easily choose for things to be easy and graceful.

We need to be prepared to do what it takes to overcome challenges and make our dreams a reality. Sometimes sacrifice is required, as may be effort and determination also.

If you have a goal to make a positive difference – will it serve you to just think and talk about it as you may have done in the past? Or is now the time to engage your purpose with passion, energy and commitment?

If you can see it in your mind, feel it in your heart as a real possibility, and believe that is it IS POSSIBLE

Then it can be for you. Go for it. Do it. Believe in yourself and trust that opportunities will present themselves as a consequence of your alignment.

The good news is that as you engage with passion, you gain wisdom easing the way forward.

18  - Wisdom – Knowledge, Efficiency, Accomplishment

You gain wisdom as you continue to understand your world and as you reflect on and learn from your experiences of aligning your purpose.

This enables you to make even better choices in the future as you grow to have a larger perspective on the world and how you can create your reality.

With an understanding of how harmonious patterns are supported, and the opportunities present themselves as a consequence; this enables you to live with more simplicity. You are able to do more with less effort.

You don’t need to waste energy and effort trying to paddle against the current. With more wisdom you will more easily flow with the current. With wisdom you begin to spot patterns ss they emerge in the world and have an instinctual feel for how you can best align with the ones that are most harmonious.

As a consequence, all of your efforts are directed exactly where they need to be with a minimum of wasted effort. This frees up more of your energy to develop yourself and your life and to contribute to the life of others.

Wisdom is gained through experience so just following one path and neglecting others does not result in wisdom. It’s a continual process of researching, taking action, and reflecting on what has happened before refining your new path of action. It’s a continual life-long process that helps over time to achieve more with less.

When we choose paths that challenge us, and really engage with passion, we gain discernment and the ability to make better decisions as we grow.

Wisdom is also in knowing how to communicate effectively with people. Wisdom helps us see that having enemies is futile, and that we should always seek solutions that serve the highest good.

Wisdom recognizes that we gain the most when everyone gains when we do. Self-serving decisions produce short term results.

Wisdom broadens our vision and our understanding.



 Life is a journey that encompasses a myriad of events, situations, and adventures along the way. Sometimes our goals, aspirations, dreams, and wishes are achieved with ease, and other times there are struggles, blocks and obstacles along the way.

 The success of a venture is dependent on many factors, however a significant aspect is the level to which a person is open, or conversely, restricted, in allowing themselves to succeed. Most people have inner mind blocks to their creative capacity, where some part of them restricts the possibilities of what can manifest. These blocks can inhibit the progress and prevents an enjoyable and fulfilling flow in life.

The process of manifesting a dream or goal involves generating and COMMUNICATING a clear INTENTION, having a clear IDENTITY of who we are and being AWARE of our journey’s experiences, identifying with the creative FLOW and connecting with EMOTIONAL drive, allowing CHANGES, developing the ability to receive and ASSIMILATE life’s nourishments, ANIMATING ourselves into actions while forming clear BOUNDARIES between ourselves and others. TRANSFORMING restrictive behaviours, clearly ANALYSING situations and what we want and don’t want, feeling SECURE and CENTERED enough to make decisions, MANAGING our activities and setting up good SUPPORT structures around us.

Each of these 16 aspects corresponds with an Energetic Driver and the use of the Energetic Driver Infoceuticals can loosen restrictions and aid the creative manifestation process.

 INTENTION –Key words: Purpose, concept, idea, creativity, survival, resolve, gather resources, initiate, and activity.  Source energy is the vital element required to activate the human body-field and initiate all the Energetic Driver activity. In the creative cycle this equates to the process of developing an intention. Source energy can be thought of as intention energy, the energy required to initiate an activity, the initial concept, and the spark to ignite action, the dream, and the start of the process.Intention is the primal impulse for all organized activity in the universe. Intention sets a purpose and outcome for the creative cycle. Without these attributes activity becomes aimless.Intention corresponds to Energetic Driver 1 (Source Driver). When Intention is indicated in a scan this can reflect a difficulty in generating clear intention, purpose and aim of what is wanted and required. There may be resistance to initiating a process. Source Driver is about gathering energy and Intention may be indicated when there is an inability to gather the resources to start a project. Setting intention involves creatively thinking about change and possibilities. When Intention is indicated there may be a creative block, an inability to see what could be, and conceive a concept of what is wanted. The primary intention innate in everyone is a resolve to survive. When Intention is indicated there may be lack of determined resolve for a project, or goal a lack of aspiration to survive. One may be floundering, lacking the basic intention to exist.Intention is as simple as considering changes to restrictive beliefs, habits, and behavioural patterns, allowing us to open up better prospects, and move forward towards a goal. Intentions are the start of change.

 COMMUNICATE – Key words: Radiate out intention, confidence to ask, express self clearly.  Intention is the first aspect of manifesting something however intention needs to be communicated and radiated outwards from the mind if it is to manifest in reality. If the intention is not clearly communicated it will remain a dream.Imprinter Driver communicates the body-field information to the body at large. In the creative cycle concept it is about sending a message, communicating, transmitting to other people and the universe our wants, needs, and desires.When Communication is indicated as an issue, this can relate to requiring assistance in communicating one’s intentions. We can be lacking confidence or a belief that we are allowed to ask for what we want. Perhaps we are communicating in an unclear way, or maybe we are not even sure how to communicate our wishes.

 IDENTITY – Key words: Sense of self, individuality, responsibility, true to self, cooperation, energy, and building blocks.  Cells are the basic building blocks of biological life forms. Humans start life as single cells, which through a division process multiply into billions of cells that together form a physical person. Each cell is a discreet unit, a building block for the body. However each cell has a unique identity and the survival of each cell is dependent on all cells of the body working together.Among the billions of people on earth we are each a unique individual with our own identity. The clearer we are about whom we are (and whom we are not) the easier it is to manifest our aspirations.  A good sense of self leads to taking responsibility for our behaviour and actions. It allows us to be true to ourselves and to let others be true to themselves.  It is about making the move from the world of wishes and dreams to the real world where things actually happen.Lacking a clear sense of identity leads to an unclear nature that inhibits clear intention and action.  We can be unclear about what is us and what is not. The potential to manifest becomes muddled. Even though we are individuals with our own goals, achieving them relies on cooperation with others. Cooperation is more easily attained if one has a clear identity, and a clear aim. Differentiating our own skills and abilities from others is an important step in our creative journey.Each cell of the body generates the energy required to perform its functions. In the creative cycle this translates into having the energy to maintain a clear identity of who we are and a clear concept of what we want.  Identity may show as a priority when we are unclear about who we are, what we want, or if we are stuck in the wishing stage; not taking responsibility for our actions. Perhaps we blame others for our troubles and for things not working out. Perhaps we do not take the initiative for the life we desire.

 AWARENESS – Key words: Feedback, acknowledge messages, sense environment/self, observing, connected up, come to senses, balance, learn lessons, being in the present.  The nervous system forms a physical network of cellular pathways linking the our outermost extremities to the deepest part of our body and brain. The nervous system provides awareness and feedback between the experienced physical outer world, the body organs, and the inner world of the mind.Awareness is fundamental to the creative cycle. Without awareness there is no connection between intention and activity, no knowledge of whether something is happening or not, no feedback on progress. Awareness is about acknowledging the message we receive so we can appreciate progress and make adjustments as required. When Awareness shows in a scan it may indicate that we are not acknowledging what is happening in the real world around us. We may be so intent on reaching our goal that we are ignoring or overlooking feedback from our experience or from others around us. This may lead to us going round and round, repeating the same patterns of behaviour, never moving forward in our quest.Life is a continual series of events and learning involves being aware how changes in behaviours and approaches can change outcomes. Solely concentrating on the end goal restricts the opportunities to learn better ways of doing things; to improve what we are creating.  Nerve Driver correlates with brain waves; delta (sleep), theta (creative), alpha (relaxed), beta (thinking).  In a state of balance well-being all these states are experienced throughout the day. Awareness is about achieving balance in life AND living in the present. Nerves connect all parts of the body if Awareness is indicated as an issue, we may appear disconnected from ourselves, and our approach to life.

 FLOW – Key words: Move forward, cycle, nourish, enrich, refresh, trust, go with flow, integrating inner and outer. The flow of blood through the body is essential to give it life. Blood provides a transport mechanism for nutrients, oxygen, hormones, heat, immune functions, and waste products and more. If blood stops flowing to a region of the body it will quickly die. When ‘FLOW” shows on a scan it may indicate being stuck on the journey, perhaps we have stopped flowing freely, and has become stagnant in some area. Perhaps there is the belief that we have all we can have and there is no possibility of change. Alternately we may be moving in the wrong direction, on a course that takes us away from our desires. Maybe we feel life is flowing too fast. Flowing through life is what nourishes us, enriches us, and allows us to change as we experience things on our journey. A flow of change allows old, outdated, and no-longer useful ideas, beliefs, and notions to be left behind and fresh ones taken on like water flowing under a bridge. Flow is about the free flow of a journey. When flow or circulation stagnates we become stuck in our lives, and desires remain dreams. Flow is an indication of our ability to be flexible, to be able to be carried along,  and trust we that we will end up where we need to be. Trust is an important word associated with flow, and is required in order to move towards our goals. Trust is the opposite of fear. Fear restricts options by predicting undesirable outcomes. Fear of the future restricts free flow. There are two distinct blood circulatory routes in the body. One goes from the heart to the lungs, and the other goes from the heart to the rest of the body. These could be considered as external (lungs) and internal (body). For free flow in life, and to manifest our desires, we need to be free flowing internally and externally. Some people can active and free minds but be restricted in the external flow of their life. Others can be very active in the outer world but be restricted in their ability to move forward in their inner lives. Flow is about integrating and balances both of these experiences.

 EMOTION – Key words: emotional, drive, energy, motivation, fulfillment, connection, balance, expressing feelings, reason for being/doing. The physical heart is associated with pumping blood around the body. Modern scientific studies and ancient wisdom, also strongly link the heart with emotions. This equates in the creative cycle to the emotional reason and motivation for making a journey and the emotional experiences gained from that journey. Emotional fulfillment is a major reason why people set out on a course of action. The qualities of our actions are governed by the emotions attached to them. A single task can be carried out with love, peace, wonder, humour, anger, fear, or spite. Having a clear, balanced, and good motivation is a powerful way of ensuring success, fulfillment, and a higher sense of well being. When we are connected with our emotional motivations, both constructive and destructive, we are more likely to grow, change, learn, and move forward with our experiences, than if we are unaware of our mivations. Some people are so emotionally reactive that they consistently overreact to their experiences. It is difficult to achieve goals when emotions continually override considerate action. Some people end up on endless quests in search of satisfaction and relentlessly pursue endless goals. They look to the outside world for their emotional satisfaction and continually want more no matter how much they have. However true fulfillment, peace, joy, satisfaction and contentment come from within. Learning to connect with these inner senses is part of the growing process, and is an essential step to manifesting one’s dreams.

 EXCHANGE – Key words: Change, give and take, receive, release, let go of, rhythm, relax. The lungs take in nourishing oxygenated air and this is exchanged with expelled air laden with carbon dioxide. In the creative cycle the lungs represent the flowing process of exchange and change.  Change is the nature of life and without the process of exchange there is no possibility of reaching goals and aspirations. The process of exchange is one of giving and receiving. It is the general of rule of life that in order to receive something we need, we must give something away. For something new to come into our life we need to make way for it by letting go of that which does not serve us. If we find that life is not giving us what we want, we need to look for what is blocking us from receiving. By holding onto old values, outmoded beliefs and patterns we may be short-circuiting our ability to manifest. When we want to change our life we have to exchange a current experienced state for a new experience; the letting go can be the hard part. The lungs move in a rhythmical way; expanding and contracting as the air flows in and out. When people concentrate on doing something they often tense up and breathing becomes shallow, or may actually cease temporarily. When we pursue a goal, we can become intense on acting upon it and we can forget to breathe. The process of exchange is restricted. Flowing through life involves the process of give and take; exchange. We can be clear on our intentions, motivated, energized, integrated, and filled with positive emotion, but if the exchange process is blocked our journey’s progress will be slowed, like a runner who becomes breathless. Progress involves letting in new experiences and letting go of outdated ones. It is the process of give and take.

ASSIMILATE – Key words: absorb good, break down into manageable parts, nourish, resources, satisfaction, fulfillment, hunger drive. When food is ingested the digestive process breaks food down into digestible parts, which are absorbed into the blood to nourish the body. The indigestible parts are excreted as waste. In this context of the creative cycle this is about taking in the real world around us and breaking this down into manageable parts, absorbing the useful bits  and letting go of the rest. If this is an issue then there may be difficulty in taking in and making sense of what life is presenting. There may be an overload of things, or the nature of what is being presented may be overwhelming.  ASSIMILATE may be indicated when we do not have the hunger and drive to actually do what we need to do. Absorbing the goodness of a creative journey is in many ways the purpose of the journey. Reaching the end goal is desirable but assimilating the nourishing experiences along the way is equally important. To “digest” the less useful experiences we need to “excrete” that which does not serve us. ASSIMILATE can also relate to gaining the skills, resources, and abilities required to further a project or venture or goal. Eating a good meal in agreeable surroundings leads to a profound sense of satisfaction and contentment. Assimilation is about identifying, accepting, and taking on the joys of life as well as its lessons. ASSIMILATE in its broadest terms can be summarized as going out into the world and gathering goodness.

 ANIMATE – Key words: Expression , independence, cooperation (relax / tense). Movement, free will, strength, stamina, resolve, change direction, emotional / trauma memory, express emotions / identity, respond.  Muscles give us mobility and the ability to physically bring animation to our thoughts and emotions. We can choose to move our arms, legs, walk to a certain place, and open our mouth to speak or eat. Muscles reflect our ability to express our independence in life. The creative cycle is in many ways an animation process; bringing life to our wishes, dreams and desires. ANIMATION may be indicated when we feel we cannot animate our wishes , or our free will. We may feel constrained or restricted, lacing freedom to move in a free way.  Muscles contracting and releasing achieve body movement. Muscles can only contract with power; they cannot push. For this reason body muscle groups working with cooperation in groups achieve movements. When we experience stress it is common for muscle groups to tense against each other like a tug-of-war. Grinding teeth, furrowed foreheads, hunched shoulders, and tapping feet are common examples.  When tensed, the muscles ability to react is reduced. This restricts movement and uses a lot of energy. ANIMATE may indicate tension, a tendency to fight one’s self, or beat up one’s self. A tense attitude restricts the ability to react, to move towards opportunities,  or to back away from danger.  Physical activity gives muscles strength and stamina by working against resistance. Reaching a goal often requires mental resolve and stamina. Our experiences can provide opportunities to build up our strengths. When ANIMATE is indicated there may be a perceived lack of strength or stamina to complete a task, or to overcome an obstacle. We may lack resolve to commit or change. We may feel mentally ready but still lack something required to complete or commit a task. Our inner emotions are expressed outwardly by our muscle activity. When we are happy, feeling alive or pleased, our faces and our bodies take on certain expressions and animations. When we are sad, unhappy, fed up, depressed, or defensive, our body language and our facial expressions reflect this. How we appear in the outer world can be an expression of what is happening within. Our inner world created our outer world. It has been observed that muscles store memories of past shocks and traumas.  The physical may heal but memory of the trauma lives on and manifest in muscular tensions.  Our animation expresses our identity.

 BOUNDARY – Key words: clearly define want/don’t want, included/ not included, adapt, flexible, firm, let in/out. Skin forms the outer surface of the body, the part that is presented to the world, the physical part others see; the boundary between the inside and the outside. The physical skin has a number of important functions including protection, regulation of water loss, heat regulation, excretion, and absorption.  In the creative cycle boundaries are important for defining what is desirable and what is to be excluded. Distinct understanding of an aspiration’s boundaries allows it to become a known quantity. Boundaries can be physical, mental, or emotional and the more clearly defined they are the easier it is to manifest the things within those bounds. For the body to physically move the skin must offer a flexible boundary. In life it is often necessary to adapt plans and boundaries as circumstances change. Sometimes BOUNDARY shows in a scan because our definition of what is required, and our approach to getting it is not adapting as our situation changes. Conversely we may adapt too readily to outside pressures. We may develop a fuzzy notion of the boundary between ourselves and others., thus being easily influences and diverted from achieving our own wishes. Our sense of identity may be blurred. Boundaries require a degree of firmness. Another function of boundaries is that of deciding what to let in and out. Boundaries can be impervious and simply keep things separated but in life many transactions occur across boundaries so part of the boundary’s function is that of gatekeeper. Healthy boundaries appropriately regulate what passes through thus protecting us from undesirable things. Boundaries need to adapt and respond to changes occurring both within us and outside us. Boundaries should reflect a flexible approach to life while remaining firm and clear and vigilant.

 TRANSFORM – Key words: transform, beliefs, thoughts, emotions, experience, past, process, evolve, opportunities, possibilities. In western physiology the liver has many functions including generating heat, neutralizing toxins, storing fats and nutrients, producing bile, and much else. Overall the liver has the job of transforming and processing. When TRANSFORM shows as an issue we may be limited in the ability to transform life experiences into something that will help us move forward. Instead we may feel restricted, put upon,  or oppressed by life. It is as if the toxins of limiting beliefs and negative mind patterns become ingrained and will not let go. As we journey through life our encounters are transformed into internal reaction, thoughts, and emotions. To gain the most from a creative journey, it is necessary to transform life experiences into nourishing opportunities rather than draining restrictions. Conditioning from our upbringing tends to constrain, limit, and predefine what our reactions should be to certain situations. This learned behaviour can have benefits but can also limit potential for new things to happen. Part of the process of opening up potential involves unlearning limiting behaviours and beliefs. This is a process of transforming limitations into possibilities. It is the process of examining our attitudes and deciding if they are helpful or hindering.  Whatever we are in life; we have what we have, we are where we are, and we have done what we have done. How we choose to experience these things is indeed our choice. There is always more than one way to look at any situation and changing a view can transform a seemingly bad situation into something completely different. TRANSFORM may show when limitations are put on possibilities. A valuable part of the transformation process is looking at memories of situations and exploring them from different points of view. It is possible to transform past memories and their effects on us by giving them love, and understanding and accepting the lessons they hold. Transformation is the process of evolving capabilities, and this can often involve transforming memories that anchor us to the past, freeing us up to move into the future.

 ANALYZE – Key words: distinguish, filter, sense (real/perceived), determine want/don’t want, inner balance, harmony, cope with stress. The main renal function is one of filtering urea from blood to form urine. The kidneys are also an important sensing organ for chemical concentration in the blood such as ions of sodium, potassium, hydrogen, oxygen, and compounds such as amino acids, and glucose. The kidneys also play an important role in regulation of blood pressure and glucose metabolism. In essence the kidneys are about analyzing, filtering, and regulating. In the creative cycle this equates to analyzing possibilities and situations, and filtering opportunities that are the most useful to advance a creative journey. This is the process of determining between what we want and don’t want, and what will or will not benefit us. The kidney’s function of regulation provides a sense of what is required for internal balance. Where ANALYZE shows as an issue, there may be difficulty is sensing what is required and what is not in order to maintain balance in life, and regulate activity. The adrenal glands sit on top of the kidneys and their function is linked. The adrenals secrete hormones, in particular adrenaline, which affects body metabolism. Adrenaline can induce a surge of energy when danger is perceived or immediate physical action is required. When adrenaline is released the body senses are heightened. Mental stress from pressures of everyday life can result in adrenaline release. If this is maintained over a long period of time it is detrimental to our health and well-being. It can also affect our ability to creatively manifest our wishes as this process requires us to calmly analyze situations  and decide how to react. If ANALYZE is indicated log-term stress may be present. Learning to deal with stress is being able to sense what is a real stress factor, thus life-threatening, and what is merely perceived as life-threatening. Our ability to filter the important from the mundane is part of the ANALYZE function.

 SECURITY – Key words: decisive, definite, forceful, tenacious, commitment, face up to things, know what is right, judge situation, insecurity. The body’s immune system forms a security mechanism for protection from both external invaders and internal disturbances. Immunity is a highly evolved and complex physiological process. This security involves detection, resistance, neutralization, and repair. It becomes operational when a threat is detected and acts in a decisive, definite, forceful, and tenacious way. There is nothing wishy-washy about the immune system.  When SECURITY is indicated we may have difficulty in making definite decisions and acting on them decisively. This may be due to an inability to make a clear distinction of a “threat” to achieving a goal. The threat can be internal such as a limiting belief or behavioural pattern, or outside, such as the actions of others. Security also involves neutralizing threats and when SECURITY is indicated there may be a tendency to shy away from situations that need to be met head on. This includes looking at fears and insecurities. SECURITY is an instinctive process; knowing what is right for us and what is not. It involves committing to a goal and making definite decisions to fulfill that goal, and sticking to the plan. Te consequence of an over-sensitive security system is an hyper-defensive attitude where criticism results in over reaction (like an allergic reaction). There is a fine balance between reacting in an appropriate way and over-reaction. A state of constant alert does not lend itself to peace and enjoyment, so, security is also about being able to judge when to be wary and when to relax.

 CENTERED – Key words: state of being calm, balanced, grounded, open, clear, relaxed, aware, alert, ready to react, confidence, vulnerable, reserves. The spleen has a number of functions including forming a reservoir of blood for use in emergency (i.e. hemorrhage). CENTERED as it pertains to the creative cycle, relates to the abdomen forming the physical center of the body (center of gravity) which in Eastern culture is referred to as the Hara or Dantian. The abdomen is a vulnerable area of the body where many vital organs have only a thin layer of muscle to protect them from the outside. Bones protect the heart, lungs, liver, etc.  A centered state of being involves being calm, balanced, grounded, open, clear, relaxed but aware, alert, and ready to act. There is a confident attitude.  A centered state provides a powerful position from which to creatively manifest desires and wishes. To be centered involves having the confidence to be open and vulnerable. This is akin to exposing a relaxed abdomen. A centered emotional state involves being able to face our vulnerabilities and expose them to the world. To fully connect with the world requires trust.  The spleen provides reserves of our most vital substance – blood. The omentum provides reserves of vital nutrients for the abdominal organs. Having a sense of reserves is part of feeling centered. If we are extended to our limits with no reserves we feel exposed and unable to cope with more demands. Pursuing a goal will at times call on our reserves. To make changes involves risk of the unexpected occurring.  To be centered is to be ready for any eventuality.

 MANAGE – Key words: control, facilitate, regulate, coordinate, delegate, organize, direct energy/activity.  The pancreas produces digestive enzymes to break down food so nutrients can be absorbed into the blood. It also secretes hormones to manage the levels of blood nutrients, and regulate blood sugar levels.  In the creative cycle this is all about management.  Enzymes manage chemical reactions throughout the body. They initiate and oversee processes but do not do the processing themselves. They act as catalysts. Just as an office manager directs, guides and instructs activity in a n office without doing the activities.  MANAGE may show in a scan when we experience difficulty in managing and coordinating activities to accomplish our goals or desires. There may be difficulty in delegating tasks and a need to do everything ourselves.  There may be a poor ability to regulate or organize our activities. There may be a tendency to put our energy into non-productive activities and a mismanagement of our energy.  It ay also be indicated when we are “micro-managing” a situation. Excessive regulation may be applied to the smallest of tasks. Management of activities is required in order to manifest a goal but at the same time excessive management restricts the creative process. Learning to go with the flow, and when to direct is part of the creative cycle.

 SUPPORT – Key words: structure, network, protect, absorb knocks, attached, end, complete, matrix of life.  Bones provide support, give protection and shape to the body. They also provide the attachment points for muscles. A good support structure maximizes the ability to absorb impacts, stress, and buffeting that life sends our way.  SUPPORT may show when we feel we have a limited support structure or network.  We may feel exposed and unprotected.  This sense can be about ourselves or about something we are undertaking.  Muscles are attached, anchored to bones; this is how we are able to move.  When SUPPORT is indicated we may have a sense that we are unattached and drifting, with no control over what is happening.  Bones are formed from a number of types of cells and these cells arrange themselves in a matrix, which maximizes strength and reduces weight. Having a strong support structure in life is reassuring and opens up opportunities to progress, change, grow, and manifest our desires. Support can be moral, emotional, or purely practical. Life can feel very lonely without support. Conversely a highly structured environment can lead to a sense of being stifled, weighed down and restricted. When SUPPORT shows in a scan we may be experiencing difficulty in completing a goal or project. We may feel unable to “close the deal”.  Support ultimately comes from the realization that everyone and everything is part of an interconnected  and interdependent whole; a matrix of life.
