Nature vs. Nurture Debate in Psychology Where we are now? Researchers and experts still debate the degree to which biology and environment influence behavior. And many researchers today are interested in seeing how genes modulate environmental influences and vice versa. Complex and interwoven
Nature and Nurture
Scientific Discoveries Why Nature & Nurturing through Nature is Essential to our Human Sense of Well-Being & Joy in Life
Intelligences in Creation Nature Itself Plant Wisdom & Medicine Biology Cellular, Genetics, Epigenetics Science Medical, Quantum Physics, EMF, HeartMath & Consciousness Spiritual Universal & Cosmic Divine Energy Soul Womb Chakra
Nonlinearity of Nature Deep in the human unconscious is a pervasive need for a logical universe that makes sense. But the real universe is always one step beyond logic. Frank Herbert We shall see but little way if we are required to understand what we see. How few things can a man measure with the tape of his understanding! How many greater things might he be seeing in the meanwhile? Henry David Thoreau
Cells & Electromagnetic Waves We are all made plants and fish and casts and elephants and men of organisms built of tissue that is built of cells.
Birthright Reclaiming the capacity for direct perception that we once knew as babies, and which is our birthright, a capacity that (and the memory of which) is still within us. All phenomenon, all plants, give off meanings that alter their structure their content in a continual ebb and flow. We are meant to perceive them with a mode of consciousness other than the linear, analytical mind.
Bruce Lipton, Ph.D.
The Heart This other mode is accessed through the heart, as it feels the impact on us of the meanings we encounter. We are engaged in communicating through a highly complex, non-verbal form of linguistics, of which our language is only a reflection.
Dr. Rollin McCraty
Life Force Energy Prana, Chi, Qi The life force is in the cells protoplasm, made up of almost everything in the universe in infinitely minute particles. Now, because of that protoplasm is made up of almost everything in nature, it responds to almost everything in Nature. Protoplasm is the sensitized film on our bodily and intellectual plates; vibrations from about us strike it and gradually they made a dent. Luther Burbank
Electrical Cells & Action Potential When a cell exposed to an electric field on one side of the cell depolarizes the other side hyperpolarizes, creating what is called a diple a system with positive and negative fields on its opposite sides, much like an electric battery. This creates a tiny charge across the cellular membrane (between the inside and outside of the cell), giving the cell electrical potential, that is, energy it can use for carrying out its functions. (Action Potentials)
While these electrical signals are used by all organisms to promote health and functioning, they are also exchanged between organisms throughout the living world.

Ancient Knowledge & Pregnancy Practices Ancient Knowledge pre-dates known religion and focuses on the science of creation. It helps us to understand how creation works, who we are, why we are here, and what our greater purpose is in life. Foundational and universal truths are woven throughout ancient knowledge. Love, Forgiveness, Surrender, Discipline, Kindness, Service, Faith and Patience are just a few of these spiritual truths. These are the qualities of humanity that make us unified. It encourages us to see God, or the Divine, in everyone, no matter their race, class, religion, sexual preference, or political views. It brings us closer to the Union energy or Oneness, to God, and to the Divine source in ourselves and in each other.
It teaches us how to use the mechanisms found in creation to raise our consciousness and uplift ourselves on all levels. It is energetic medicine for the Soul s Growth & Spiritual Development. The knowledge shares powerful self-healing tools for managing the day-today ups & downs, as well as energetic tools for helping others heal physically, mentally, emotionally & spiritually.

Vibration Everything is made up of vibrations!
Dr. Masaru Emoto
Cymatics - John Reid Sound is just as much at work in the interior of a star as it is in the organs of a starfish or in the cells of your body. Sound lies at the heart of every aspect of Nature, underpinning all of Creation. Water, with its highly flexible and sensitive surface tension, reacts almost instantly to any sound, revealing very high levels of detail. The shape of sound is a bubble. Whether the sound is emitted from your voice or from some other source, such as a musical instrument, this bubble-in-a-hurry leaves a fleeting vibrational imprint on the surface of your body: every cell in the surface tissues of your body actually receives sound patterns from the bubbles that surround you.
Silent thoughts contain sound vibrations, silent prayer contains sound vibrations. Thus, what we think, what we intend, and what we say becomes the frequency we vibrate at. Mantra meditation through the Sai Shakti philosophy uses specific seed words, also known as bijas, and when practiced and repeated, internally or aloud, automatically the vibrational frequency of the body, mind, emotions, and spirit are raised to a higher divine state or higher stage of consciousness. Nina Ketscher, MA, PPNE, CEIM
The Science Behind Mantra Chanting Goldman, J. 2010. The Science Behind Mantra Chanting. http://www.shiftyourlife.com/2010/the-science-behindmantra-chanting-by-jonathan-goldman/ Frequency + Intent = Healing Vocalization + Visualization = Manifestation
Meditation on the Mantra OM Kumar, S. et.al. Meditation on OM: Relevance from ancient texts and contemporary science. International Journal of Yoga 2010 Jan-Jun;3(1):2-5 concluded The utterance of OM consisting of the three letters A, U, M covers the whole process of articulation. This sound represents the primal vibration from which all others sounds and creation emerge. It is considered that one who attains Om, merges with the Absolute. Scientific studies on Om suggest that the mental repetition of Om results in physiological alertness, increased sensitivity as well as synchronicity of certain biorhythms, and an increased sensitivity to sensory transmission.
All the universe including our bodies, is simply made of vibration a concept, incidentally, that the new Superstring theory of physics supports. Everything is in a state of vibration and when we are in a natural, resonate vibration, we are in a state of health. But if some part of the body begins to vibrate at a counter frequency, the energy becomes stuck and disease sets in. Therefore, by mantric chanting, one can cause stuck energy to become released, and we can return to our natural state of resonance, effecting a cure. - Jonathan Goldman
Sound & Intention It is not only the sound that creates the effect of the sound, but also the intention of the person making the sound. The vowel sounds are considered sacred in many different traditions from Hebrew Kaballah to Tibetan Buddhism. So people can chant vowels with no religious conflicts and still experience the benefits of chanting. There are of course, healing mantras as well as specific mantras to balance and align the chakras.
Mantra + Yantra = New Divine Energy Vibrational Seeds + Sacred Geometry = New High Divine Creation
Benefits of Mantra Meditation Mantra chanting observed years ago by Dr. Herbert Benson helps to induce the relaxation response, causing reduction of heart beat, brain waves and respiration. Dr. David Schananoff-Khalsa has found mantra chanting to shrink tumors and enhance sleep. Dr. Alfred Tomatis has utilized sound frequencies to stimulate and charge the cortex of the brain and the nervous system.
Some believe that the recitation of sacred mantras actually causes the physical and etheric bodies to change their vibrational frequency level - becoming more attuned with divine energy. Superstring theory says that the entire universe, including our bodies, is simply made up of vibration. And, if some part of the body begins to vibrate at a counter frequency then the energy becomes stuck and disease sets in. Therefore, by mantric chanting, one can cause stuck energy to become released, and we can return to our natural state of resonance, effecting a cure.

Conscious Parenting Starts Before Conception Health of Mother during Pregnancy & Birth Health of Baby s biological & energetic development Talking/Listening to Baby Touching/Sensing Baby through Mother s Belly
As human beings, we share a common experience that connects us universally we are birthed into this creation through a mother s womb. The journey of pregnancy into motherhood and fatherhood can be divinely guided and nurtured. This gives a growing baby an environment where they can thrive, beyond what we commonly know today about pregnancy and birth. A divine pregnancy implements ancient formulas and technology focusing parents-to-be on conscious conception, pregnancy, and birth. Nina Ketscher, MA, PPNE, CEIM
Conscious Parenting Practices Mantras for fertility and for a healthy & protected pregnancy & birth Healing a pregnant Mother and baby Divine Baby Blessing (energy transmission from a Sai Shakti Healer) Mantras to calm and help babies & children go to sleep Healing a child from addiction Mantras to support consciousness during every stage of human development
I was given a specific mantra when I was about 4 months pregnant with my first child, 17 years ago. I had never meditated before, nor did I have any experience with Sanskrit mantras. It was completely new to me. I was told it was for the highest happiness of mother and child. That sounded good to me, so I began chanting this prayer as much as I could make time for. The more I chanted the more I wanted to chant it. I would chant day and night, as I went about my day singing it out loud and inwardly depending on what I was doing at the time. When my son was ready to come out, I chanted it as he crowned and came from my body, I had birth partners there to remind me to chant. My experience of this prayer is that it changed my pregnancy from confusing and disconnected into a connection with my unborn son that has grown, lasted and blossomed these last 17 years. I know in my soul that my son brought me to spirituality, which is the same as bringing me to myself. I had a visceral experience of becoming whole with the birth of my first child. I credit this simple meditation as that catalyst for what has blossomed into a life of pure love and unconditional service. My son is an amazing, smart, funny, wise beyond his years person. He is calm and steady, he is infinitely creative and loving. He has a deep and palpable respect for humanity and especially women. Ami Oryazabal, CMT, CEIM

Decharging Consciously Nurturing Yourself and Others Through Nature
Obvious Symptoms for Decharging eyes burning Legs painful and tight Head aching Mental disturbances painful skull, brain or neck Irritation and angry feelings Nausea Feel a little sick Lack of appetite Trouble digesting Feeling wired, super-charged, hyperactive Strange negativity happening in your life Thoughts not clear or trouble focusing When you are doing something wonderful and something happens to stop it
Charging is essential. Decharging is more essential. If you know how to decharge, you re a powerful, successful person. Sri Kaleshwar
Gratitude & Intention Dear Source, God, Lord, Mother Nature, Universe, Divine Intelligence, Jesus, Buddha, Allah, Divine Mother, thank you for creating this beautiful (insert element) in the form of (insert the form of the element. Ex. water). Right now I am decharging any and all negativity or stress in me through this earth element. *modify the wording and speak from your heart
Earth Element Black rock Fresh cut flowers Holding dirt/earth in your hand Walking outside in a natural setting, park, field, beach, etc with the intention to decharge into Nature. You can also put a rose behind bent knees for 30 minutes to relieve mental stress. If the situation is severe, laying or walking barefoot on the ground will relieve it.
Fire Element Looking into any kind of fire, including candles, de-charging through the eyes. Watch the sunrise with the intention to decharge. Holding your hand out with fingers spread, pointing towards the fire with your fingertips.
Decharging Excess Energy + or - Always decharge after giving a healing, a performance, a presentation, or any situation where many people s attention is focused on you. Always decharge at least 10% of the total time you spend doing a healing (at least 6 minutes for every hour of healing done that day). Also decharge after an emotional disturbance, like an argument, a scolding, etc. Always decharge at the end of the day and preferably before eating a meal.
Case Study Two beautiful souls came to me for the Sai Shakti Womb Healings. The first one was a man who wanted to heal his past heartbreaks, relationships and family karmas and wanted to find his true soulmate. Some months after completing the healings, he met a lovely woman. After hearing his experience with the womb healings she also wanted to purify her past relationships and heal family karma in particular with her mother before they really got into a committed relationship. They learned additional ancient mediation practices and self-healing techniques for creating a healthy relationship. Within a year they married and soon after found out they were pregnant.
In Conclusion Nurture Your Children by Connecting Consciously with Nature s Divine Vibrations
Such babies, if the mothers implement it, from today onwards on this planet, after fifteen, twenty, thirty years later every person will become such a loving character. ~ Sri Kaleshwar
Imagine what a wonderful world this would be! As we rebalance, purify our blocks, and heal trauma in our body-mind and hearts, our future generations then can be welcomed into this world, embraced and held with love and aligned with their purpose in life, and ushered out of this creation in the most beautiful and sacred ways. A benefit for the whole of humanity!
