The Science of The Reconnection

While the workings of Reconnective Healing and The Reconnection cannot be clearly explained by our current science, scientists are excited by the ways in which Reconnective Healing seems to be unique. Scientific research has shown that Reconnective Healing is very different from Reiki and other types of energy healing in various ways. There are still many unanswered questions, but here are some of the results that have been obtained so far:

Reconnective Healing elicits great interest from doctors and medical researchers at hospitals and universities worldwide. Here is what some of the scientists conducting the research have to say:

Professional Comments and Research

 

William A. Tiller, Ph.D. Emeritus Professor, Stanford University When Eric Pearl talks about Reconnective Healing, then really what is happening is that many kinds of energy and light are flowing through the healer and into the healee [sic]. In other words, what we're talking about is bringing it beyond just what has been classically known as energy healing into a broader spectrum of energy, light and information.

I have come to the view that we are always radiating and receiving from each other on many, many bands, and the only band that our present science knows about is the electromagnetic one. The higher dimensional bands are not yet quantitatively available to us because the instruments we have are designed primarily on the electric atom molecule level of reality, and therefore confined to radiations that go slower or equal to the velocity of electromagnetic light.  
 
But, in the reference frame that I use to understand the experiments that I've been dealing with for 35 years, and that other people have been doing as well, many of these [energies], I feel, travel faster than the velocity of light and therefore cannot be accessed by the conventional instruments.  

We've also developed an instrument now, which can access these higher dimensional levels of reality. It's just a beginning, but at least it's one in which we can have a readout. That's very important, so that we can begin to monitor the space in which healers work and describe the level of effectiveness of what they're doing on an energy level, in terms of a quantitative measurement of that particular space.
 
We did an experiment with one of Eric's healing workshops in Sedona last February and the data that we gathered was quite remarkable.  First of all, we found that when we started monitoring the room, which was about five hours before anyone - any of Eric's crew, or Eric himself, or the healees [sic] - ever came into the room, we measured a higher gauge symmetry state than in normal reality. It was already a conditioned space! So something had happened before people even gathered. That space was set up, and that made it easy then for healers to work.  
 
As we continued to monitor that space, we found two days later the increase in this effective energy content was huge.  Let me put it in terms that might be understandable. If we look at a normal reality and we say 'What is the effective temperature increase for that normal space, how much must it go up to give the same excess energy content as was in Eric's workshop two days after he started?' [The answer is] The effective temperature increase for a normal space would have been 300 degrees Centigrade! That is huge!"

 

Mark O'Connell, M.D. "What Eric does, which we don't understand at all, intrigues us enough that we want to investigate it further," says Mark O'Connell, MD, internal medicine specialist and Senior Associate Dean for Medical Education at the University of Miami School of Medicine.

"I am a very traditional doc," O'Connell says. "I teach internal medicine. I'm on the faculty of a medical school. I'm one of the Deans. I'm definitely not out there on the fringe. And this definitely rattled my construct of how the body works - how disease works."

"What I personally witnessed with my own patients definitely got me wondering,"he says. "Where does all this fit? There is definitely a mind-body connection - nobody can deny that, whether you are an integrative medicine person or a traditional western medicine practitioner. The mind and the body are one. And anybody who denies that is not paying attention."

O'Connell recalls observing firsthand, one of Pearl's healing sessions with a patient who had serious chronic medical problems which were going to require surgery. O'Connell says that as he watched Pearl "waving his hands around over her," he witnessed a dramatic improvement in her condition.

Intrigued, O'Connell says he then selected a few other chronically ill patients and asked them if they too, would like to try a session with Pearl. In exchange, he asked each of them if they would be willing to answer some questions after their session, and he asked them not to discuss with others what they experienced. O'Connell says they returned with surprisingly similar reports and dramatic improvements. One of his patients with great difficulty walking, walked around easily after a few sessions with Pearl. Still another, a child with cerebral palsy who couldn't walk into O'Connell's clinic without leg braces and help from his mom, was able to run out after Pearl's session, carrying his brace.

"Many members of our faculty have seen Eric's work," O'Connell says. "And almost everybody is intrigued by what they've seen."

 

Gary Schwartz, PhD (author of The Living Energy Universe) Professor of Psychology, Surgery, Medicine, Neurology and Psychiatry Director, Center for Frontier Medicine in Biofield Science Director, Laboratory for Advances in Consciousness and Health, University of Arizona www.drgaryschwartz.com

The Human Energy Systems Laboratory, which Gary Schwartz previously directed, conducted four carefully designed, controlled experiments to determine whether Reconnective Healing energy was something basic science in the laboratory could prove. In the studies Eric Pearl and two of his students served as senders while volunteers acted as receivers. The first test showed that blindfolded subjects could detect the energy up to 83 percent of the time. The second showed that the energy functions like an electromagnetic signal, Schwartz reported. The third showed that the sender's heart wave, measured by electrocardiogram (EKG) imprints itself on the receiver's brainwave, measured by electroencephalogram (EEG), particularly when the sender intends to send the energy.

"Most significant in this third experiment," Schwartz says, "is that whether or not the receiver was consciously aware of the energy, the EKG imprinted just the same, so there is unconscious energy detection that can be recorded electromagnetically." The fourth experiment recorded the brainwaves and eye movements of 30 subjects under three different conditions. The lab is still analyzing data from the fourth experiment.

In another study, Dr Schwartz focused his research on the people who attend Reconnective Healing seminars. He conducted baseline energy healing studies which measured people's abilities to work with, feel, transmit and receive light and other electromagnetic frequencies before and after they attended the seminar.  What they found was dramatic. Of the more than 100 people who participated in the study, all walked out with permanently expanded and new electromagnetic abilities following the Reconnective Healing seminar, whether they had never studied healing or if they were masters/teachers of the various energy healing techniques known today, old or new.

 

Professor Konstantin G Korotkov, PhD Deputy Director of Saint-Petersburg Federal Research Institute of Physical Culture Professor of Computer Science and Biophysics, Saint-Petersburg Federal University of Informational Technologies Member of the Federal Russian University Scientific Board on New Medical Technologies http://korotkov.org/

While Dr Tiller has been measuring the incredible field effects that occur at seminars and Dr Schwartz has been focusing his research on those who attend those seminars, Dr Korotokov has studied both of these things. Using his proprietary methodologies and cutting edge imaging and measurement devices, his research corroborates the work of both Tiller and Schwartz. More specifically, he has also measured and documented a very large field effect at these seminars, calling them 'coherence effects', that occur during the teaching of the seminars. These effects are most dramatic and powerful whenever a new concept or exercise is taught during the seminars, and these teachings result in dramatic spikes in both the intensity and size of the field in the room. He theorizes these 'coherence effect' are what might be allowing normal people to gain these new abilities and become master healers in just one weekend.

Additionally, Dr Korotkov's work demonstrates that most of those who are simply sitting in the seminar room itself receive positive health effects. In fact, it is not uncommon for people to have physical and other healings just from sitting in the seminar room during the class!

 

John Day, M.D. Several years ago, John Day, MD, board-certified general and vascular surgeon, decided to put down his scalpel and practice Reconnective Healing instead. Day graduated from Tulane Medical School in 1977 and completed his surgical residency in Baltimore at University of Maryland before joining the large Boulder, Colorado, surgical practice where he spent the next 25 years.

Through his own career-long series of questions and discoveries, including an intense personal study of Eastern and other holistic healing systems with world-renowned authorities including the Dalai Lama's personal physician, Day decided the current mentality of Western medicine is not as conducive to healing as what he felt he could accomplish by other means. "I made this decision because I knew it would take me into higher levels of understanding. It would help me heal myself and others more completely," he says.
