Emotion is the Language of Cells
The feelings we attach to what we think are the real catalyst for manifestation.

hen When it comes to consciously creating our lives, it seems we talk about thoughts most of the time. However, the truth is that the feelings we attach to what we think are the real catalyst for manifestation. We live in a feeling universe and therefore, emotion is the language of our cells. Emotions are energy in motion, and we can direct that energy to our benefit by choosing what we feel in any given moment. Instead of struggling with which thoughts to think or not to think, the fastest way to plug into the energy of what you desire is to be it now. Whatever it is you want, imagine what it would feel like to already have received it and then step into that state of being right now. When you’re feeling that you have your desire right now, collecting your thoughts is unnecessary because your conscious and subconscious minds are aligned, and they’re sending your cells a new blueprint for how to be in this moment. As we consciously change our being, this ever evolving being will eventually become our constant (subconscious) new state of being. In his book, Feeling is the Secret, author and teacher, Neville Goddard, reminds us that, “The only reality is consciousness, and consciousness becomes what it knows.” Whether you call it “acting AS IF,” or “faking it until you make it,” there’s much scientific proof behind this spiritual principle. One of the most amazing examples of this concept comes from a study Dr. Ellen J. Langer conducted at Harvard University in 1981. Dr. Langer placed two different groups of men, all in their 70s and early 80s, in an old monastery in New Hampshire one week apart. Unbeknownst to the men, before they arrived, she had transformed the entire place to look and feel as if it was still the 1950’s. Leave It to Beaver, Ozzie & Harriet and similar iconic ‘50’s shows played on all the TVs. The news reported on Nikita Khrushchev and the sportscasts on Mickey Mantle. The radios only played doo-wop music, and LIFE magazine was scattered across the period furniture. The pink Cadillac parked out front was the finishing touch to her time capsule. The first group was told to have fun and reminisce about the good old days. One week later, the second group took their place but was given a different set of instructions. They were told to be as you were in the 1950’s. Don’t remember the past, but act as if you are there now as your younger selves. Feel the way you felt 0

Dr. Habib Sadeghi then. Dr. Langer’s original intention was to study how preconceived ideas about aging affect the body. Her results were completely unexpected, and truly exciting. After one week, the group that was told to simply reminisce about their past showed improvement in all their biomarkers including skin elasticity, hearing, flexibility, systolic blood pressure and sight. Bone density increased and their posture was dramatically straighter. Arthritis that had gnarled many of their hands had begun to loosen its grip. The second group that was acting like their younger selves, instead of just remembering old times, experienced all the same improvements but at dramatically increased levels. Skin elasticity improved so much that their wrinkles started to disappear. Scores on intelligence tests improved, as well.
The quality of life we experience depends on understanding the difference between what is and what can be, releasing all preconceived notions and consciously acting on a new assumption. Dr. Langer’s study shows us that how we feel about anything, especially ourselves, is what drives the power of manifestation. Her work is proof of “As Above, So Below.” The mind doesn’t just have the power to halt illness and aging, it can reverse them too. The most amazing outcome of this study was the biological
