Your thoughts can actually stimulate and prolong intense physiological activity. By physiological activity, we mean the functions and processes of your body, its parts, and organs. That’s one of the key points of how Dr. Morter’s concept of the body-mind connection affects your long-term health: thoughts actually generate energy. This has been established scientifically time and time again. Proven scientific devices have recorded the energy generated by the brain. It has also been established scientifically that the body is surrounded by energy, which leads us to a second key point – the connection between thoughts and health. This is a biggie. The connection between thoughts and health is the mind-field connection.

Dr. Morter always said, what you think about, you bring about. Your body responds constantly to your mind’s messages. In his book Quantum Healing, Dr. Chopra says, “You may not think you can talk to your DNA, but, in fact, you do continually.” He goes on to say that people who often think and say, “I’m sick and tired . . . ,” shouldn’t be surprised when they get sick or tired. Your verbal expressions and thoughts actually send messages to your body, which it displays in physical symptoms. In fact, specific feelings and emotions have been linked with particular symptoms and diseases. There are a variety of lists that make these connections, but one that you may wish to refer to is in Karol Truman’s book, Feelings Buried Alive, Never Die.

It seems that negative feelings are generally associated with the production of disease. If that is so, then the opposite postulate would be that positive feelings produce health. Proverbs 16:24 says, “Pleasant words are as a honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.”  Feeding the physical body positive thoughts from the conscious mind leads to health—food for thought – a mind-field connection.

We can’t state strongly enough that your conscious mind is very powerful. You know this, yet you may not realize the full potential of your conscious mind. God gave us the ability to think with our conscious mind – free will. Furthermore, our use of our conscious mind creates the energy field, which is our soul.
