What Healers Have Said for Centuries, Neuroscience Now Backs Up
For centuries, mystics, meditators, and healers have said: we are all connected.
Now neuroscience is beginning to catch up, and I’m excited about that!
Recent research shows that the human brain doesn’t just generate thoughts inside the skull — it emits extremely low frequency (ELF) electromagnetic waves. These waves are subtle but measurable, and can extend beyond the body. And here’s the wild part: they seem to resonate across people.
In other words, our brains may be quietly “tuning into” one another all the time. (And that can be good or bad).
Every day Proof We Already Know This
Think about it:
Walk into a room where everyone is anxious, and your body tenses before anyone says a word.
Sit with someone calm and grounded, and you feel your breath deepen because they are a safe space.
Dance, chant, or sing in a group, and suddenly everyone is moving in rhythm — not just physically, but mentally.
We’ve always had language for this: “the vibe was off” … “she has a calming presence” … “the energy shifted.”
Now neuroscience may be giving us a mechanism: ELF brainwave entrainment.
The Subconscious as a Relational System
We often think of the subconscious as something private — our inner programming, our hidden stories. But here’s the truth:
Your subconscious doesn’t live in isolation.
It’s always scanning, always attuning — not just to your personal history, but also to the subtle nervous-system signals around you.
That’s why:
Scarcity isn’t just a personal belief — it gets reinforced in environments where everyone is hustling in fear. (Where systems are predicated on keeping that fear alive to consolidate power.)
Fear of rejection isn’t just about you — your body picks up on subtle signals of exclusion from the group.
Safety isn’t just an internal mantra — it’s something your system feels when someone nearby is regulated and present.
Your subconscious is relational. It listens to the field.
Healing Isn’t Just Personal
If this research holds, it changes how we see healing and transformation.
When you regulate your nervous system, you’re not just changing your own patterns — you’re changing what you broadcast into the field.
When you stop looping scarcity, you stop reinforcing scarcity for others.
When you soften shame, you make it easier for others to feel safe too.
It’s like ripples in a pond: every personal shift contributes to the collective environment.
A Shared Field of Possibility
Some scientists even point to the Earth’s natural Schumann resonances — electromagnetic frequencies created by lightning storms — that overlap with human brainwaves. Which means we may not only be connected to one another, but also to the planet itself.
Whether or not that holds as definitively provable scientifically, the implications are profound:
We live inside an invisible commons.
Every thought and feeling isn’t just private — it’s participatory.
Personal healing is a form of collective stewardship.
The Invitation
Here’s the question I keep circling back to:
What if every calm breath, every unlearned fear, every moment of compassion isn’t just healing you — but reshaping the field we all share?
That means when we heal ourselves, we heal the world too.
The science is still emerging, but the invitation is ancient:
By transforming our inner world, we change the collective one too.
