Periodicity: A Universal Energetic Aspect of Health

Today's podcast provides a meditation directed toward healing problems with dysfunctional biorhythms and periodicity.What is periodicity? It means the quality, state, or fact of being regularly recurrent or having periods. It is an innate aspect of energy which carries a rhythmic quality that we detect in all vibrations.We can find periodicity and rhythm in almost every aspect of biological function: respiration, heart rate, heart rate variability, circadian rhythm, menstrual cycle, blood sugar regulation, and mood regulation.One universal function that starts to deteriorate with the loss of health is biological periodicity. The importance of regulatory function is found in the amount of information devoted to it in our DNA: "Humans actually seem to have as few as 19,000 such genes— a mere 1–2% of the genome. The key to our complexity lies in how these genes are regulated by the remaining 99% of our DNA, known as the genome's 'dark matter.' " (1) The timing and regulation of genes and enzymatic functions have an informational aspect that may be supported through energy medicine techniques. I have used this approach in the past and have found the approach surprisingly effective.  Enjoy!Reference: 1. (Chi, K. The dark side of the human genome.
