this woman suggests that scientific research has been carried that shows a mind heart connection .

you have a 40,000 neuron brain in your heart that connects directly to your free will in your brain.
james: this is a scientific fact?
caroline: this is a scientific fact. it is quite new research and it actually controls it, links directly to the part of your brain which is more or less over here --
james: you mean the physical heart, not just the emotional heart we call the heart -- the physical heart?
caroline: the actual physical heart has a 40,000 neuron, very sophisticated checking machine, which checks for congruence for interaction and it actually is a still small voice that goes up and helps with your decision making. you receive information, it comes in your brain and you start to formulate a thought. now as that information comes in, you make a decision of your will, is this good for me? is this bad for me? do i need this? am i going to accept this? am i going to reject this? and you rely on the heart to guide that decision. so the heart has a huge cognitive -- it secretes a chemical called anf, that actually has a cognitive impact. in other words, it controls the thinking process, and that is like a checking station to help us to actually make a good decision. hopefully this is more acceptable for the forum , its just that if this scientific research is for real the implications are obviously mind blowing in regards to human evolution .
what she basically implies is that forgiveness basically debugs you mind holding onto negative thoughts short circuits it causing one to be caught in a misery loop and stops a person from learning .
it kind of makes a lot of sense you can not love with out forgiveness well you can until some one steps on your toes then you get a choice to hold onto the negative experience or forgive let it go and continue to love.
i am kind of interested how they conducted the research hopefully one of my fellow wanders will guide me in the right direction.
