This is The Heart's Code. Not only does it open our minds, it opens our hearts. The Heart's Code is about the gift of life as it is expressed through the intel- ligence of the heart—an intelligence the brain is just beginning to be- come aware of. Our ancestors knew that the heart had energy—a powerful energy— and that it conveyed deep wisdom. However, as the human species devel- oped its brain, it began to lose sight of its heart. At this point in history as we venture into space, create global communications, and invent all sorts of technological tools and toys, we are poised to destroy ourselves, our children, and everything around us. Have we simply lost our minds, or have we lost something deeper? Have we lost our hearts? The intelligence of the brain is not to be faulted. On the contrary, as you will see as you read this book, the scientific tools created by the modern brain provide a new technology for conceiving and perceiving the energy and intelligence of the heart. While Paul Pearsall, Ph.D., the in- spired author of this book, has taken the vision even beyond the current technology, he reaches this vision not only from his understanding of the x Foreword ancient wisdom of his Hawaiian ancestors (the Kahuna—medicine women and men), but from his training in psychoneuroimmunology and his knowledge of modern physics, psychophysiology, and cardiology. These are big words for big ideas—but like all big ideas, they are wonderfully simple at their core. When we began our research in 1993 on what we called "energy cardi- ology," we drew upon the simplest ideas in physics and cardiology and integrated these ideas with modern systems theory.1-2 When these ideas were married—intellectually and emotionally—the result was a veritable explosion of testable predictions that could forever change how we view not only the human heart but hearts in general—the coded pulsations emanating throughout the cosmos that give frequency and form to the universe. Heinz Pagels, Ph.D., the late great physicist, understood the deep significance of such universal codes in his book The Cosmic Code: Quan- tum Physics as the Language of Nature} Scientists and physicians tend to be conservative, fearful of saying things in print that might be challenged by their peers as seemingly "un- scientific." When we began publishing our ideas and research in energy cardiology,1-2 we were most certainly fearful of our colleagues' emotional reactions to the inexorable logic inherent in modern systems theory. Integ- rity in science requires that we honor and follow the logic of theory, wher- ever it takes us, even if we do not like the implications of the predictions. Moreover, integrity in science requires that we honor and follow the data derived from observation and experiment, wherever it takes us, even if we do not like the implications of the findings. The Heart's Code honors and follows the clinical observations and empirical science suggesting, for ex- ample, that the heart stores energy and information that comprise the essence of who we are, and that sensitive persons who have received car- diac transplants may reveal the often invisible heart's code of the donor's organs living inside them. When Gary was a professor of psychology and psychiatry at Yale Uni- versity in the early 1980s, he unexpectedly discbvered the logic of the "systemic memory mechanism" (an explanation for how atoms, cells, and organs such as the heart naturally store coded information) and experi- enced three fears. The first fear was that to determine whether the logic was truly correct, he would have to write a paper outlining the logic and share it with his colleagues. Once his colleagues knew the implications of the logic—for example, that hearts could learn and carry one's personal code— Foreword xl they might question his credibility (to put it mildly). The second fear was that if the logic turned out to be wrong, this would be no small blunder (another understatement). But the third fear was the worst of all: the logic might actually be correct. If this was true, then Gary would have to dramat- ically change his cherished beliefs about how nature worked. How he handled these three fears was prototypic of the "sane" scientist—he didn't share the logic with virtually anyone, and kept it quiet for 12 years! However, when he shared the theory with Linda in 1993, she said "this logic must be communicated. The logic of storing information can be extended to storing energy, which provides a key to understanding deep implications of the work we are doing in energy cardiology." We decided it was time to be brave, and we began to share the logic with those in the scientific and clinical community who were open to changing their minds.4'5 One of the scientists and clinicians we shared the logic with was Paul Pearsall, Ph.D.

OPEN ACCESS and Medical Science Keywords • Qalb e Saleem Iqbal Akhtar Khan1* and Hamza Iltaf Malik2 • Qalb e Mareez • Healthy heart 1Independent Scholar, Pakistan • Diseased heart 2 Northampton General Hospital, UK • Brain in the heart Abstract Human heart, “a wondrous magic casket”, has been believed to be the seat of intelligence, emotion and sensation in ancient scriptures and non-Abrahamic religions. According to monotheistic religions, it has psychological, moral and spiritual functions. It could either be healthy or diseased. The modern scientific research has proved that an emotional brain is formed long before a rational one, and the heart has its own independent complex nervous system known as ‘the brain in the heart.’ The heart sends out electromagnetic field which controls our emotions. Whereas the theory of cellular memories states that memories, as well as personality traits, are not only stored in the brain but may also be stored in organs such as the heart, it has been reported that the heart transplant recipients seem to be the most susceptible to significant changes in personality, the possible mechanism being the transfer of memory through heart. The heart also manufactures and secretes oxytocin, referred as “love or social-bonding hormone”. Moreover, its role in cognition, tolerance, trust and friendship and the establishment of enduring pair-bonds has been well recognized.

    WILDERNESS SURVIVAL FOR ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS by Kyt Lyn Walken Bio: Kyt Lyn Walken is the official European representative and instructor for Hull's Tracking School (Virginia, USA), and is a certified Conservation Ranger for C.R.O.W. (Conservation Rangers Operations Worldwide). She has been an outdoors and tracking enthusiast since childhood. Kyt lives and works in Europe, and can be contacted at ww.thewayoftracking.com. "The most effective way to do it is.. to do it" Amelia Earhart INTRODUCTION Getting outside does represent a remarkable reward, especially for those hunker-down inside four walls for the most part of the week, maybe doing a job they absolutely hate. Dont take me wrong: having a job should be considered a luck today, but, hey: who didn't once a day look at the window, contemplating the trees or the clouds, dreaming of being in the backwoods instead of stuck at a desk? This is especially true considering the forced quarantine caused by the spreading of the COVID-19. Personally speaking, I dreamed to be outside quite 40000 times a day. And when it happened, even if strictly wearing the mask, I looked at the outdoors like I found myself being there for the very first time. Adrenaline and enthusiasm are very pretty common feelings when it comes to be in the great outdoors, especially after a long period of reclusion. Feeling again the fresh air gives special thrills, I reckon it. You immediately feel full of energies, getting the impression you can do anything, anywhere. But you simply can't.
