Purpose Boosts Immunity with Wayne Topping
By Alexis Costello
F
or this issue, it felt important to address the immune system as a multi-layered and holistic structure – not just the T-cells and B-cells, but how emotions and energetic flows affect it. Who better to discuss this with than Wayne Topping? He offers far too many studies and stories to accurately share everything here; visit YouTube for video of the complete interview.
A: How do stuck emotions affect the immune system? W: We know that when we are experiencing any type of negative emotion it tends to shut down the frontal part of the brain – redirecting energy to the limbic system so we then react. We have a non-specific response in the body such as blood being pulled away from the skin and extremities, the body changes in various ways as it prepares for a fight/flight response. Most people don’t recognize what’s happening with the immune system. Many years ago, I read a book by John Diamond – you’ve probably read it – “Your Body Doesn’t Lie”.
