The Life pulse Mystery

March 31, 2014May 26, 2014 Veerle de Bock

The Life pulse Mystery

Through this cosmic principle we engage with the limitless energy soup around us and affect our lives, our relationships and definitely our reality.

Are you familiar with this cosmic principle of the life pulse?

The whole process of how we create our reality in this moment is astonishing and complex. The life pulse is a cosmic principle, which can assist you to achieve more clarity.

Can you imagine our current reality being a mirror of what we believe?

The life pulse is the principle that engages with your beliefs of how the world is.

This article starts with defining the life pulse and weaves the cosmic principle of the life pulse through the sequences of our map of physics, enabling us to gain some insight into the concept of creation.

What is the life pulse?

The life pulse has different components, which alternate between expansion and contraction. There is always a moment of stasis, followed by a wave of expansion, ending in another moment of stasis and leading to a wave of contraction, completed again in a moment of stasis, which at the same time starts a new wave of expansion. Everything in nature follows this principle. You can recognize it in the trees, the plants, the animals and the seasons.

There is extensive spiritual literature in the Pathwork lectures around the cosmic principle of the life pulse. The scientific perspective is covered, amongst others, by Adrian Bejan, a physicist who developed the constructal law as the principle of life correlating with the life pulse.

How the life pulse affects our lives

Let us use a real story to exemplify this process. This is a story of an interaction between my husband and me. My husband is a wonderful sensitive caring man. We have been married for 27 years and have already learned a great deal in our relationship.

1. Stasis in the Zero Point Field
This is a moment of silence, the preparation for our outgoing movement in the expansion. We gather essence or energy from the Zero Point Field, deep within our cells. We retrieve specific information from the Quantum Hologram through resonance. What makes sense for us in this moment ‘now’.
In our story the stasis is a moment of silence right before we start to walk, a deep breathing, silence in and around us. An excitement for what will unfold ‘now’. The information that holds the possible scripts for our walk, are at this moment available.

2. Expansion through our energy field and into our physical body
A wave of expansion happens, in an expansion we always move outward into the world, we connect with other living beings, human beings or nature, our environment. It makes sense that in this outward movement we make sense of what is actually happening through our body-mind. The body-mind is the intimate relationship between our physical body and our mind (our personality).

In our series of articles around physics and reality we gained insight in the existence of an electromagnetic field that permeates and surrounds our physical body and which is generated within our physical body. This energy field contains seven levels with all our beliefs, images, expressions, feelings, thoughts, emotions and physical sensations as different vibrations. All these aspects of our personality engage in the wave of expansion.

The gift of any expansion is this moving outward towards the other. This always will affect our old stories, the pleasurable ones and the more difficult ones.
Our life pulse moves from the depth of the physical body outward through each level of our energy field. And it is hard to make sense of those different levels in an expansion. It feels as if this happens non-linear.

The information still present as possibilities in the moment of stasis becomes organized in a reality (superposition). A certain reality engages with thoughts or emotions that then will reinforce certain beliefs and create other emotions and eventually physical symptoms. All these thoughts, emotions, beliefs, physical symptoms are connected with old stories that are stored in our physical body.

My husband and I embark on a lovely walk without an appropriate map. We try to allow the unknown and to trust that we will get where we need to get. When we arrive back high in the mountains at 6 pm where we passed at noon, the situation gets difficult. I feel betrayed and angry. My husband jokes and reminds me that I get what I desire, I wanted a long walk. This is so fascinating. Instantly I feel like a victim and I make my husband the perpetrator.

3. Stasis after the phase of expansion
At the end of this expansion we have another moment of stasis. The life pulse resides now in the connectedness with the other and all living beings, we often do not perceive this moment of stillness. Yet it is important, this is our moment of choice and does prepare us for the inward movement of the contraction.

Let us return to our story. In the moment I become aware of a familiar pattern between my husband and me. I give away my power and I feel betrayed when circumstances are not as I expected.

I can make a choice, I deeply breathe in and out and decide not to go for any old pattern that exists between us.
Deeply breathing in and out is a simple tool to stay open, to become aware of choices. And it is a moment of silence, a reconnection between your soul and your body-mind.

4. The contraction back through the energy field
We make an inward movement, we reflect and introspect to digest what we discovered in our outward movement. Our contraction is strongly affected by the choice we made in our stasis. Do we stay in the one reality attached to the story or do we open up for new fresh possible realities.

Let us imagine travelling through the different levels of our energy field.
In our story I am still walking though I move inside, I do not move out towards my husband.

The seventh level brings my attention to my beliefs. We can change the belief that gave rise to the story we attracted from the Quantum Hologram and we might not yet be ready to completely let go. And need more cycling through this creative arc.
I know and gained insight not only in a repeating pattern in our relationship, I also received insight in this magic principle of the life pulse. I become part of a bigger whole.
The sixth level stands for Divine Love. We can either love our beliefs or open ourselves up for many more possibilities and experience a deep love for all the living beings in the Universe.
I perceive how unconditional love moves through me.
We arrive in our fifth level. This level holds the precise order of everything. How whatever happens is useful.
In the story I achieve a deep sense of understanding. I have the freedom to make another choice. I strengthen a clear and courageous will for the right action.
We continue our journey, in the fourth level we meet the whole area of the relationships that affect our story.
I discover that I do not really see my husband. I position a reality upon my husband that stems from an early event happened to me or around me. I feel how love flows through me when I let go of this projection.
Our third level holds space for our thoughts and how they affect our story. How we think what we believe is true.
I perceive different thoughts: I am a victim because my husband always pushes me over my limits. I easily push myself over my limits. I am a victim when I give my power away.
The thoughts are no longer stressful, they are simple thoughts and I let them pass by.
Our second level contains the emotions and feelings about ourselves.
I feel how anger and frustration move through me, without me engaging with them. It feels like vibrations moving through my energy field.
We finally arrive in the first level. This level brings our attention to our physicality, what it means to live in a human body, to the physical sensations in our body; we can be brought to a specific area in our sacred bodies. We may perceive pain or pleasure.
I literally perceive an opening of my cells, more energy moves through me. I feel how I still enjoy the walking, the simple rhythm of putting one step after another.

5. Back in the Zero Point Field, for another moment of stasis
We arrived back in the Zero Point Field deep within our cells, we can rest and gather momentum for yet another wave.

Conclusion

What we believe is truly creating our lives. Beliefs are how we assume the world is. Thoughts, emotions, feelings, expressions and physical sensations will affect our beliefs.

The moments of stasis are when our soul and body-mind reconnect. In these moments we have a choice.

The magic key is awareness of the different phases of the life pulse and how it operates with the laws of physics and energy in order to create our reality.

Creative waves happen continuously in and around us. An abundance Universe is real and at our disposal to manifest everything we truly desire. This is how we achieve access to our bigger potential.

This article offers hope for the creation of a more beautiful world that our hearts know is possible.

The life pulse is an amazing principle that is at work in our personal lives and affects the ‘beings’ of our organizations. You can read more in Becoming What is Changing: Exposition.

I welcome your personal experiences that bring light to this amazing cosmic principle. You can share them in the comment box.

The next article on this blog will reveal how the magic of the life pulse affects our inner split.

Physics and Reality – A Map for Human Potential Part 1

January 15, 2014February 5, 2014 Veerle de Bock

How can Quantum Physics affect our daily life? Author Veerle De Bock explores ‘the field of endless possibilities’ that surrounds us and permeates our bodies.

Physics is a map that can assist us as we navigate through our lives; delivering us insight and understanding into our fascinating life in this physical body. This map helps us become aware of our astonishing potential and the endless possibilities that exist in the ‘energy soup’ that surrounds us.

In this 3-part series, we will examine the different sequences (or categories) of this map and how they relate to our daily life.

In part one we will look at quantum physics
In part two we will explore electromagnetism, Newtonian mechanics and gravity.
Finally, part three will explain how magic resides in the connection between Quantum Physics and Classical Physics.

I invite you to embark with me on this fascinating journey as we ask, what is Quantum Physics? How can the different definitions within Quantum Physics affect your potential in your daily life?

The interesting sequence of Quantum Physics

Nobel prize-winning physicists know, beyond doubt, that our physical world is one large soup of energy, which is organized in a specific way.

In the world of quantum physics, nothing is solid. Creation in the Universe happens continuously through flashes of energy that come in and out of being in milliseconds.

In order to understand the sequence of quantum physics, we define the Zero Point Field (see the work of Steven Hawking), the Quantum Hologram and Quantum Superposition (see the work of Edgar Mitchell) and Morphogenetic Fields (see the work of Rupert Sheldrake) and, look at the inter-relationship between them.

The Universe, a field of endless possibilities

The Zero Point Field is the almost unlimited, ubiquitous energy source (or essence) that permeates and sustains all matter and all living beings – it is everywhere.

This amazing Field points to our interconnectedness – to how everything in the Universe is linked.

In spiritual terms, the Zero Point Field is often called ‘the field of endless possibilities’ and is considered to be the source of all our ideas and dreams as well as the essence of who we are. Nature is an ongoing resource that allows us to experience the endless possibilities that lie outside of us in our daily life. There are many examples. You can perceive them through simply gazing into a cloud-filled sky, through connecting deeply with a tree, through sensing the mountains or perceiving even a single flower.

This Zero Point Field is also present inside of us, at our heart. An easy way to connect with it is through our core qualities – those qualities that define who ‘you’ are (empathy, love, integrity, intelligence, purity, endurance, clarity, etc.). Our core qualities are our ‘essence’, the same essence that makes up the field of endless possibilities.

Essence relates to our potential. As spiritual beings (or souls) that incarnate to the human realm in order to experience and progress on a personal path while also offering something to the world, we engage with the Zero Point Field, both internally and externally in order to perform our tasks.

Information Storage

Within the Zero Point Field resides the Quantum Hologram – where all the information present in the Universe is stored. No experience, story or emotion is ever lost in the Universe; all the information related to any of our experiences is carried forward within the Quantum Hologram.

Holograms store three-dimensional images of information using interference patterns that occur between the waves emitted by two particles. This explains how there is a fluidity in the Universe – nothing is solid.

This fluidity makes sense of the different time relationship that exists at a quantum level. The hologram not only contains what has already happened, but also everything that will emerge in the future. This is a fascinating idea, because it offers us the possibility of making another choice; to change what is happening and to access the field of endless possibilities.

What is the practicality of this knowledge? How can a Quantum Hologram affect our daily life? Our soul has this amazing Quantum Hologram at its disposal to help it achieve its task on Earth.

If our life task mainly involves finding safety within ourselves then the Quantum Hologram will provide us with many different stories, emotions and events that all are related to safety. Someone shares a story with us that describes harsh circumstances and, suddenly we perceive anxiety about something that happened to us, an accident resulting in physical injury that could unfold.

You can read more about how the Quantum Hologram relates to the smallest events in our lives in my earlier article, Whatever Happens is Useful.

Different Available Realities

While the Quantum Hologram contains all that has ever happened and is yet to happen in the Universe, Quantum Superposition is the phenomenon that organizes all these available realities. These Superpositions contain every possible version of existence and history. They explain how, the moment we give our attention to one possibility (or Superposition), all the other possibilities collapse, thus becoming temporarily unavailable. So, when you give your attention to a specific story from your past that is stored in the Quantum Hologram, that Superposition becomes your reality – you live your life ‘now’ as if the story is happening ‘now’.

Here’s an example. On a recent trip to Zimbabwe, I arrived at the airport in Harare to find that there was nobody there to pick me up. I perceived anxiety. I had never been to Zimbabwe before and I was completely alone with nobody to take care of me. In that moment, I gave my attention to an old story from my childhood in which I was too young to care for myself, I felt alone and unsafe. Life was harsh. This reality became mine as I stood in Harare airport wondering what to do.

Slowly, I became aware, I breathed deeply in and out and gently let go of my old story.

My friend Maaianne was supposed to be at the airport to pick me up and unfortunately, we hadn’t exchanged cell phone numbers. I continued breathing deeply in and out and, as I relaxed, I remembered that Maaianne’s cell phone number was at the end of all her emails. As I tried to make contact with her I started to enjoy the warmth and the bustle of the people around me and I began to feel safe within myself. At that moment I didn’t know which reality would become mine – I was open to several possibilities.

At that moment, my reality was not yet organized; this brings me to another phenomenon in Quantum Physics.

Organizing Principles

The various available realities are closely related to the existence of Morphogenetic Fields – underlying energy fields within the larger Field of Endless Possibilities that act as organizing principles, giving form to various levels of reality.

For example, each disease process has its own Morphogenetic Field that gives it its form in the physical body.

And let us stretch this concept a bit further. You and I also have our own Morphogenetic Fields which give form to our own personal individuality – to that which makes us uniquely ‘us’. Our personal Morphogenetic Field contains our soul, with its unique purpose that gives rise to our intentions for this specific incarnation. Within our Morphogenetic Field we make use of all the available realities to create an actual reality for ourselves in this moment using the stories, emotions and experiences from the Quantum Hologram.

Conclusion

Quantum Physics is a fascinating way to access your potential. In order to make sense of what is happening to you and around you, to understand who ‘you’ are and your unique mission on Earth, your soul acts through Quantum Physics.

This amazing field of endless possibilities is an ongoing resource to constantly renew and redefine yourself. It offers you hope for the future, not a hope based on old beliefs and patterns but a hope for new, as yet unknown, possibilities or realities.

Quantum Physics shows us that the world is not the hard and unchangeable place it may appear to be. Instead, it is a very fluid place, continually creating, using essence from the field of endless possibilities.

So fascinating!

In my book, Becoming What is Changing: Exposition, you can explore more about our human potential.

I hope I have conveyed to you the beauty and excitement of experiencing Quantum Physics in your daily life.

Part 2 of this article series will explore how Classical Physics relates to our physical body and to our personality.

All your comments are amazing energy flashes and are very welcome.

Why Everything that Happens Affects Everything – Part 2

November 14, 2013 Veerle de Bock

Any story people share with you may offer an opportunity to expand yourself. Author Veerle De Bock invites you to assimilate your own hidden stories.

This series of articles invites you on a journey to explore how everything is connected and affects everything. Whatever happens in your life is useful – whether it is a simple event that passes unnoticed or it’s something you do notice but miss the underlying richness of possibilities.

In part 1 I introduced the fascinating triad ‘witnessing, asking and experiencing’. We explored how, by extending our awareness, we are more able to pay attention to the moment that is happening ‘now’. We discovered how a simple event such as stumbling on a stone can become a doorway to another reality, which was previously invisible to us. If you missed this article you can read it here.

In today’s article, we will look at the importance of paying attention to the stories that people share with you. Each story – whether complex or simple, emotional or rational, spiritual or down-to-Earth – is part of the ‘quantum hologram’ described by physicists. In this quantum hologram all these stories are related – connected with everything that has ever happened in the past and everything that might still emerge in the future. This is the physical law behind my encouragement to pay attention to the stories people tell you – if other people’s stories are connected to our own then we can learn from them.

People share their stories with us all the time but how can we learn from them?

We apply the ‘witness’ to really listen to the story. The witness becomes an external process where we completely receive the storyteller without ‘doing’ anything or acting upon the story. This open and non-judgemental listening creates an environment in which the storyteller can feel able to share his or her story.
The ‘asking’ is an internal process where the story we are being told merges with our own stories. We can gently ask ourselves the simple question: “What is here ‘now’?”
The ‘experiencing’ is the internal process of integration through which we become able to perceive pain or other physical sensations, emotions, feelings and thoughts. Often our deeply hidden stories are touched and released as energy moves through us.

To illustrate how this works, I invite you to join me on my journey along the Flemish part of the old pilgrimage path, the Way of St. James – one of several paths across Europe that converge on the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela in Galicia, northern Spain.

I have been walking all day as I arrive at a Bed & Breakfast. During the evening the woman who hosts the B&B shares with me a story of her childhood.

She was the youngest of two girls and many times she felt blamed, humbled and spited by her sister. She is convinced that her role was to be the scapegoat in order for her sister to feel that she was important and of value.

This memory is still vivid and hurts because what happened passed unnoticed by her mother and sister.

I sense how this story represents huge humiliation for her.

This is how I moved through the triad:

Witnessing

As she shares her story, I witness this lovely woman. I notice that my first impulse is to feel sorry for her and judge her sister and mother. I tend to perceive her as a victim and as a consequence I feel I need to do something in order to save her.

I breathe, and notice that when I am able to listen deeply and completely receive her and her story, something happens: a connection appears between me and this woman, with the story she is sharing and with what is present in the moment ‘now’. My awareness becomes more all-inclusive and there are fewer boundaries between us.

Asking

Later, when I am alone, I wonder why she decided to share this story with me and I observe that there is a particularly strong energy attached to it. I stop and ask myself, “What is here ‘now’?” I gently stay here ‘now’ with this story and wait – with no effort, no struggle, just the purity of curiosity.

So fascinating! How does this story of humiliation relate to me?

I have no clue. And yet I know that there is a deeper hidden meaning, a link to a reality not yet visible for me.

Experiencing

I have a headache during the night, with lots of pain in my body and tension in my neck. I keep on relaxing – breathing deeply in and out. I am patient and wait, my heart is open and I let go. This is truly ‘experiencing’ the energy of my own stories in my sacred body. My stories related to this woman’s story. I allow the energy to move through me.

Eventually, I fall asleep and have many dreams. I only remember parts of these dreams and nothing really makes sense. However, in the morning I suddenly begin to receive more clarity.

I realize that nobody is humiliating this lovely lady any more and yet she continues to be defined through her story of humiliation.

My body recognises this humiliation and releases a great deal of energy. I feel more alive.

Through the story this precious B&B host shared with me, my own deeply hidden stories related to humiliation were touched. Old stories that unconsciously still define me. It’s an amazing insight – I had no idea I was still humiliating, confining and restricting myself.

What is true for me is true for you as well. When we learn to listen to the stories that people share with us in a new way something miraculous happens, we access our deeply hidden old stories. We are able to let go of these old stories, thus ending a vicious cycle of defining ourselves through them.

Something special happens then, and our reality becomes expanded as we gain access to much more of ourselves.

My book Becoming What is Changing: Exposition talks about how ‘witnessing, asking and experiencing’ can heal, not only yourself at a personal level, but also whole organizations. Many different stories function as the material for applying this fascinating triad. If you want to find out more, you can do so here.

Why Everything That Happens Affects Everything – Part 1

November 8, 2013 Veerle de Bock

To be in the ‘now’ we must ’witness, ask and experience.’ Author, Veerle de Bock discusses how this fascinating triad offers a doorway to other possibilities.

So much occurs, within us and around us, all the time. Most of the time, what is happening passes unnoticed and what we do notice is often not seen as a possibility – whether that be another choice, a broader perspective or insight, or even a completely new reality.

You could imagine the Universe as a giant biocomputer and all these amazing possibilities as the hard drive. You are the software and can apply your amazing potential to experience, integrate and assimilate everything that happens.

In the Universe, everything is connected and affects everything. Physicists describe this as a ‘quantum hologram’ that contains all that has ever happened in the past and all that can possibly happen in the future. In this quantum hologram all the different realities are available. This physical law lies behind my invitation to see everything that happens in your life as useful.

Even if only one single possibility becomes our reality there are still many other possibilities available in the quantum hologram of the Universe. The link towards those other possibilities lies in what happens in the moment.

In this article, I encourage you to pay more attention to what is happening ‘now’, in this moment. I will introduce you to a wonderful tool – ‘Witnessing, Asking and Experiencing’.

I invite you now, to join me on one of my walks. The rhythm of walking makes it easier to open your mind and let go of preconceived ideas and concepts, which will help you to be more open to what is happening ‘now’. A walk always confronts you with many events -both foreseen and unforeseen, obvious and less obvious. Walking, metaphorically, represents our journey on our life path.

What happens this time is something very simple. Most of the time it passes unnoticed.

I am walking on one of the Camino paths that cross Belgium and converge on the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia in nortwestern Spain. The Camino, or Way of St. James is a pilgrimage route that has a special attraction to me.

I stumble over a little stone on the road. How fascinating!

I curiously ask myself: “What is here now?” There is no attachment, my mind is open. I perceive the purity of curiosity. I gently come back here, to ‘now’. There is no effort, no struggle.

This curious ‘asking’ invites in me the ‘experiencing’. I perceive a little pain in my right big toe, where I hit the stone. I wait, and allow more to unfold. There is a tenderness in my heart region, moving up to my throat. I feel a bit insecure. I am patient, and slowly I perceive more and more energy moving through my body, my legs become alive and so does my pelvis. I feel how my mind is still open, and gently my heart also opens. I am here – ‘now’.

Now I am present, the ‘witnessing’ opens – I look around me and see the environment, I see the houses, the people, the cars, a few trees, the road.

I simply witness, I do not judge myself or anything around me. I am not influencing what is happening and yet I am deeply connected with what happens. My awareness is all-inclusive and boundless.

So fascinating

My reality (and focus) was fixed on arriving at the end of my walk, I lost sight of all the other realities that surround me.

I notice how I forget to see and perceive what is around me when I am glued on getting to where I’m going….. Wow! Amazing!…. I guess much of my life is about getting to where I’m going …. What about the road? Even if it, literally and metaphorically, guides me through cities, suburbs, factory areas, along highways, brick-built walls and a variety of fencings.

I laugh with myself. This little event of stumbling over a stone suddenly stops me in the moment and asks for my attention. There is a doorway to many more realities in the moment ‘now’. I perceive my body, the environment and the interaction between my body and the environment.

Is that familiar to you? How often do you forget to see what is happening ‘now’ and only strive to reach your goal?

If we want to explore the ‘gift’ in any event, we need to pay attention to what is happening ‘now’. But, how do we ‘pay attention’?

Let’s have a closer look at this precious tool of ‘witnessing, asking and experiencing’.

‘Asking’ is a dance between the inner process and the external event that is happening in the environment. It engages with the self-created boundary between inner and outer. It is a curiosity about “What is here ‘now’” You can try asking yourself this question with whatever happens to you and get a sense of how it allows you to arrive here – ‘now’.
The act of ‘asking’ prompts us to ‘experience’ what is happening in our body. It leads us deep into our sacred bodies and often extends to a variety of expressions – sensory, emotional, mental and spiritual.
Once we are ‘experiencing’ the sensations in our body, we are then able to acknowledge where we are through impartially ‘witnessing’ what is happening ‘now’. There is no judgment; we simply notice what is happening. We do not do anything; we just allow whatever happens to unfold.

Awareness is closely related to our ability to ‘ask, experience and witness’. This amazing triad is a treasure for our ability to love what is. The triad is of great assistance on our life path and the more experienced you become at using it, the more you will receive until finally it connects you with Source. In other words, you connect with the quantum hologram of the Universe and you receive access to many more realities at the same time.

The three aspects of the triad are closely related and intertwined. Each experience can bring forth the question “what’s here now?” and at the same time invites the witnessing.

Are you ready to explore this further?

Remember, you are the perfect software to engage with the Universal biocomputer of endless possibilities. Whatever happens is useful and can become a doorway to another reality that is invisible in the moment. Our tool to become aware of the moment ‘now’ is this amazing triad. ‘Ask’ enquiringly, ‘experience’ intensively and ‘witness’ without prejudice. Through applying this fascinating tool, even the simplest events make sense in the astonishing scene of life.

Paying attention to what is here ‘now’ is a basic ingredient of our personal transformation work but it also affects the ‘living organism’ of organizations and has the ability to create a happy satisfying and continuously growing workplace.

Her book, Becoming What is Changing: Exposition, is the first part of a trilogy aimed at managers, team leaders and responsible employees who wish to bring this kind of transformation into the workplace, so they can create an environment where people are happy, satisfied and continuously growing.
