The human design is phenomenal! We are a combination of body, mind, and spirit.
Body
Our physical body has three different types of systems:
Physical
Our body has eleven separate, yet interdependent, major physical systems. Many of these have sub-systems of their own.
Sensory
Additionally we have a sensory system that includes taste, touch, sight, feel, smell, equilibrium, and the less frequently talked about clairs. Clair is the French word for clear, and to some degree we all have clairvoyance or clear seeing; clairaudience or clear hearing; clairsentience or clear feeling; and claircognizance or clear knowing.
Energy
The human body is sustained by life force energy. The laws governing quantum physics demonstrate that everything in the universe is made up of vibrational fields — the human body is no exception.
Located on the mid-line of the body there are seven major transition points for the distribution of life force energy. These are known as chakras (energy stations).
Energy travels from these stations on distribution paths that are similar to a highway system. They are known as meridians (energy pathways). The energy that travels through the meridians feeds all of the organs, glands, body systems, and sub-systems—ultimately every muscle, nerve, tissue, and cell.
Surrounding the outside of the body there are several electrical energy fields which are collectively referred to as the electromagnetic field; Human Energy Field (HEF); or aura (energy shell).
The chakras, meridians, and aura are intrinsically linked—forming an intricate network that distributes life force energy. It is this complex system of energy transfer and distribution that is the focus of all energy-based therapies.
Mind
The mind itself is comprised of three separate, yet interdependent aspects. These three aspects make up the human personality.
Mental – Thinking
The mental/thinking aspect is cognitive — it pertains to perception, memory, judgment, and reasoning.
Emotional – Feeling
The emotional/feeling aspect is an affective state of consciousness in which joy, sorrow, fear, hate, or the like, is experienced.
Volitional – Will
The volitional/will aspect is the act of willing, choosing, or resolving — a choice or decision made by the will, usually based on core beliefs.
Spirit
The spirit is the vital principal in humans — it is our very essence, our being, our soul. The spiritual part of humans is distinctly separate from the physical part. It is our inner self — the unseen part of us. It is divine. Unlike the body and mind which are interdependent, it is a different entity, separable from the body. It departs from our physical body upon death.
The soul’s responsibility, in part, is to guide the personality (thinking, feeling, and will) to determine and fulfill its life’s purpose.
Many metaphysicians believe that illnesses and diseases begin in the emotional, mental, and spiritual energies that are in and around us.
