The evidence that human health and behaviors are influenced by geomagnetic activity is quite strong and convincing. However, there is experimental evidence that human bio emotional energy can have a subtle but significant (scientifically measurable) non-local effect on people, events. It is becoming clear that a bio electromagnetic field radiated by each human heart and brain, can affect other individuals. For example research conducted in the Heartmath Institute confirmed the hypothesis that when an individual is in a state of heart coherence, the heart radiates a more coherent electromagnetic signal into the environment that can be detected by nearby animals or the nervous systems of other people. Of all the organs, the heart generates the largest rhythmic electromagnetic field, one that is approximately 100 times stronger than that produced by the brain. This field can be detected several feet from the body with sensitive magnetometers. This shows we can “feel” or sense another person’s presence and emotional state independent of body language or other factors. It has also been found that there is a direct relationship between the heart rhythm patterns and the spectral information encoded in the heart's magnetic field. Thus, information about a person’s emotional state is encoded in the heart’s magnetic field, which is communicated throughout the body and into the environment. This was also was supported in a study examining the possibility that people achieving high states of heart coherence could facilitate coherence in other people in close proximity. The results showed that the coherence of untrained participants was indeed facilitated by others who were in a coherent state. this means that If you train your heart to get into a coherent state and maintain it, you would potentially influence those around you. Evidence of heart rhythm synchronization among group participants was revealed through several evaluation methods. In another study, Kathi Kemper at Wake Forest University, Winston-Salem, North Carolina, conducted a blinded study to evaluate the direct psychophysiological benefits of the nonverbal communication of loving kindness and compassion to others. The study participants did not know of the true purpose of the study and did not know that the practitioner was at the time practicing being in a more heart coherent state of loving kindness and compassion. After the periods the practitioner was in this state, the participants had significantly reduced stress and increased feelings of relaxation and peacefulness. The participants also had significant improvements in their measures of HRV, which was used as an objective measure of autonomic activity. The study concluded that extending compassion to others has measurable affects and is “good medicine"
