The Macro Perspective of Life Through a Biophysics Lens

Each day you wake up, step into your strength, personal power, integrity, authenticity and self-love fullness to begin from this place. As you go on throughout the day remind yourself of how complete you are so you can continually access flow states.

Remember that it doesn’t matter what you do, it’s how you do it. It doesn’t matter what you say, it’s how you say it.

All that matters is the energetic marketing campaign that you give out. The way you feel about yourself will radiate from your being in all directions and even unconscious people will subconsciously feel it and be attracted or detracted.

How do you talk to yourself, feel about yourself, love yourself, and treat yourself? Kindness and self-compassion are key tools to maintain the self-love you must embody each and every moment. 

Unconditional self-love is your baseline of being. When you shine from this space insecurities melt away. When people show up in your life who are more capable or better than you, look to them as inspiration instead of looking inside at your inadequacy. If you feel inadequate, observe the feeling and bring awareness to the trigger which will ultimately reveal another puzzle piece about your wounded past and subsequent coping strategy. Feel into the shame, guilt, loneliness and struggle. 

Turn it to strength by owning it and continuing to show up as your beautiful radiant self-loving self. Go to sleep each night allowing the old self to die and birthing the new you with new optimism, new inspiration and another reason to continue the self-love you embody in each and every moment. In nature you realise the sun loves you, the earth loves you, the trees love you, the ocean loves you, and even the air loves you. It allows you to continue living, breathing, creating energy, supports you moving around and holds you buoyant cradling you safely.

All natures elements exist to support you because you exist within it. At its essence there is no separation. If you hold the energy of loving life, celebrating each moment and being unattached to each moment this broadcasts an energy of abundance and deep joy or jubilation. Being outcome independent focuses you on the journey and not grasping each moment but allowing each moment to inspire you. Holding the energy of love, honour and respect whilst being gracious for life is endearing to all.

How life works from a Biophysics perspective

• Macro Scale: The Theory of Relativity

• Middle Layer tying everything together: Thermodynamics – size and shape changes control this (Mitochondria)

• Small Scale: Quantum Mechanics

The theory of Light, Water and Magnetism and Living Systems

Nature is perfect. You ARE nature, not merely a part of it, yet that perspective, when provoking a grateful and appreciative response is also valid. The understanding of mitochondrial DNA at the centre of health aims to deeply reconnect you to this immutable truth. Everything your body/mind/physiology is currently doing is in balance at some level and a product of inputs and outputs in the human experience.

This understanding provides a clear, yet extensive, practical approach to nourishing the physical body and reconnecting to the smallest parts of you that are widely overlooked (yet right there for your utilisation) in the world we currently have shaped for ourselves. It’s so simple yet appears so complex and overwhelming to many seeking a way of feeling more centred, free in their body, energised and connected to ourselves, others and the world around us.

When we nourish our smallest components and our physical body it has an inextricable effect on the way we view our world and what we become open to exploring and experiencing. It’s amazing what a body will do when it has freedom, strength, energy and it’s operating system feels safe and open.

This is a perspective that economically (in the sense of efficiency) blasts through obstacles that have been adopted over the course of your life that are restricting the flow of enjoyment. In this way great success can be achieved in the rehabilitative and clinical sector all the way through to conscious high performance athletes and explorers who are enchanted with the ultimate limit of their mind/body capabilities. 

At the smallest scale of biology we find subatomic particles like protons, electrons and neutrinos.

We find these containing even smaller particles along with energetic fields of charged plasma, visible and invisible light, sound and consciousness. All these fields vibrate, oscillate and resonate the particles which then form a specific order, subject to change if prompted forming more and more solid density as they form communities within living systems and ecosystems.

The more mass or density the more coherent energy and information required to sculpt the structure into something different. But this weird and whacky world of biology at the very small scale reaches the land of theory usually reserved for philosophers, spiritual gurus and quantum theorists.

All you need to know for now is that we are made up of mostly water and proteins which are made up of energetic information fields that are in constant communication with the environment around you, with the most immediate fields being the most impactful.

Air, water, temperature variation (cold to hot), light, sound, consciousness, other living organisms, artificial fields and so on are energy and information signallers of wisdom to our cells.

Our biology pays attention to these and orders itself to accommodate. When internal conscious or unconscious energy and information are received by our biology such as intention, emotion, behavioural patterning or our 5 senses become engaged we too send out signals to our environment impacting the living structures around us. This bidirectional energetic information field communication dictates our body’s strategy of health or disease. 

We can understand the impact of these electromagnetic field interactions through the science of biophysics.

I know it sounds complicated but I promise, I’ll break it down and keep it simple so it is perfectly applicable for adequate comprehension and easily digestible for you to make actionable practical strategies and integrate them within your everyday life.

Introducing Biophysics

Biophysics explains how our environmental signals impact our biochemistry and ultimately functional biology. The environment around us and the environments we spend most of our time in is vastly different, some would even say worlds apart from those environments with which our grandparents found themselves in.

We have migrated to an indoor existence, encountering a myriad of foreign light, sound, electric and magnetic signals. We have cut ourselves off from nature in order to withstand its unpredictability and seemingly inconvenient patterns.

This departure from our long-standing evolutionary connection with nature's harmonic symphony has led us to experience unusual adaptations which many call diseases or disorders.

These adaptive strategies are not to blame, but rather our tremendous courage yet lack of wisdom we possessed as a species as we migrated, leaving behind the energy and information sources and signals which we are so intimately impacted by.

Fortunately, we now have the field of life sciences called Biophysics which has for the first time ever shown us much of the intricate detail of how our environment speaks to our cells and the corresponding interpretation that results in the variety of our human living systems.

What is Biophysics

Biophysics takes into account quantum mechanics, electrodynamics, aquaphotonics, mitochondrial bioenergetics and the rhythms of life; including our circadian rhythm. All of these roll up into the Biophysics of Living Systems which explains how energy and information flow in our internal and external ecosystems signalling growth or death.

Energy can be perceived as waves of light (electromagnetism), sound or consciousness on which we find information in the form of frequencies, vibrations and resonance. Demonstrating that death is built into life, with health as the slowest form of death. I know I got a little esoteric there for a minute, but my point was to demonstrate to you that biology, emerging from biochemistry emerging from biophysics meeting biomechanics can form the most sturdy foundation of health.

Biomechanics can be thought of as what and how to say something, like a joke for example. And biophysics can be thought of as where and when to say it. Without the appropriate context or timing the perfect joke will never land. And without knowing what to say or do, the timing and context of a situation can only provide a platform to demonstrate greatness. 

One of the biggest challenges with optimising the biophysics of your health in a modern world is that strategies can be inconvenient and sometimes outright annoying. The perception of this can be shifted once you feel the results of the biophysics strategy you implement and understand the value in adopting the strategy, but this often involves an education which most are not willing to commit to shift mindsets But with knowledge comes power and to approach this new paradigm of understanding human health with a beginners mind can bring with it riches in health outcomes from your new actions you choose to implement.

As described by biophysics.org, “Biophysics is the field that applies the theories and methods of physics to understand how biological systems work. Biophysics has been critical to understanding the mechanics of how the molecules of life are made, how different parts of a cell move and function, and how complex systems in our bodies the brain, circulation, immune system, and others, work. Biophysics is a vibrant scientific field where scientists from many fields including math, chemistry, physics, engineering, pharmacology, and materials sciences, use their skills to explore and develop new tools for understanding how biology, all life, works.” So why should you care about biophysics? Because understanding even just the basics of the physics of nature and how it interacts with your biology will allow you to piece together the missing piece of health readily ignored or missed by our medical experts.

Our bodies, minds and energetic fields are impacted by our environment which ultimately dictate health or disease. A simple way to understand how our environment impacts us is through the foundational health principles of light, water and magnetism. These three principles appear to be the primary language in which our environment communicates to our human living system. Our ancestors didn’t need to think about the biophysics of light, water and magnetism, because it was built into all activities, rituals, celebrations and ceremonies they conducted. Now that we live in a world where we have created our own microenvironments, biophysics considerations in the way in which we undergo our lives has become very important.

The discovery of fire, the invention of clothing, the light bulb, the electric power grid, radar, microwaves and radio wave technology, synthetic fabrics, synthetic food, agricultural chemicals and indoor living, just to choose a few, may seem like progress as a society but came with a cost.

We no longer experience true variation of seasons, day/night, temperature fluctuations, and instead experience artificial light sources, with artificial wireless frequencies, AC electricity, climate control, poor air quality, clothing and shoes or as my friend calls them, ‘foot prisons’. But we as humans are resilient, and if given an inch of optimal signalling our biology takes a mile, soaks it up, compensates for its usual starvation of optimal signalling and provides wisdom in the form of feelings and symptoms to communicate to you it needs more of the good stuff! This good stuff is natural light from our sun, it’s experiencing the earth’s magnetic field, it’s immersing yourself in earth’s natural water sources and breathing in fresh air produced by our tall green friends, trees.

These internal subtle cries for reconnection with nature come in the form of low vitamin d levels, high inflammation levels, dysregulation of blood pressure, metabolic disorders, neurological and mental health challenges and physical fragility just to name a few.

Consequently, using biophysics strategies, we can come up with strategies to compensate by choosing to spend more time connected to nature or to bring the language of nature into our homes, offices, workspaces, bedrooms and thus bodies, minds and spirits. If it’s not possible to spend most of your time connected to nature, small adjustments can be made to ensure we still receive optimal environmental signals that support our functional performance and movement.

When you cannot be in nature, bring nature to you as best you can.

The Biophysics of light, water and magnetism begins with our biologic surfaces. What happens at our surfaces (eyes, skin, gut & lungs), controls what goes on underneath. Let me explain. If you cover an orange tree with a plastic tarpaulin, the tree will die. If you stop feeding the orange tree nutrients and water, it will eventually die, if you stop the orange tree from breathing carbon dioxide, it will eventually die.

All of these sunlight, nutrients, water and carbon dioxide are required for plant life to exist. What most don’t realise is that from these inputs, plants output glucose and oxygen, which we humans and animals breathe in and consume to create energy for ourselves (ATP), water, carbon dioxide, internal electricity and internal light.

Plants complete their task as described above via the process of photosynthesis where they use magnesium loaded chlorophyll within the chloroplasts to perform the phototransduction. We humans, use our biological surfaces predominantly containing melanin to transduce the same sunlight into electrochemical and photoelectric energy to our iron loaded haemoglobin and mitochondria.

Plants and humans are a perfectly coupled system. Our mitochondria act like stars inside us imploding creating heat, water, energy, light, electricity and biochemicals like melatonin, steroids, ubiquinone, nitric oxide, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), peptides, free radical signals like reactive oxygen species (ROS), and so much more.

The human living system is a carbon-based hydrated semiconductive protein structure containing trillions of hydrogen powered heat engines (mitochondria) that work best in cold temperatures, fuelled by full spectrum sunlight and oxygen.

If that was a lot of information, take home this: know that humans turn full spectrum sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity in the body and all biochemistry including the creation of all our hormones occurs under the guidance of full spectrum sunlight.

You don’t need to know deep details of how your biochemistry works, all the pathways, cofactors or interactions, all you need to know is light, water and magnetism interacting with your eyes, skin, gut and lung exterior surfaces dictates almost every chemical reaction in your living system. So the key then becomes deciphering the energy and information signals contained within the light water and magnetism in your immediate environment. So the light you live under, the light and water contained within your food, and the magnetic flux in your environment all contain varied power and signalling which determines health or disease in your living system.

Light or Electromagnetism’s primary components are  light/darkness, sound, frequency, vibration, emotion, language, consciousness. Water’s primary considerations are  structure/coherence, mineral composition, elemental isotope fractionation  hydrogen vs deuterium, density/electrical conduction  dielectric constant and temperature variation hot/cold. And magnetism comprises  air quality including oxygen/nitrogen composition, the Schumann resonance, local geological magnetic properties, electron availability, artificial electric/magnetic field exposures, and grounding/earthing and conductance/insulation/resistance.

Thus, life on earth is the outcome of information and energy interacting with various forms of matter such as water.

With respect to human life, water forms the foundation of our fascinating biological system, and as Mae Wan Ho put it, “water is the stage life dances on”. Water is the smallest molecule in the body and the most common molecule in the human body, making up about 98% of all the molecules in your body! Water is key for human health and no one said it better than the Nobel Prize winner Albert Szent-Györgyi with his quote "Water is life's matter and matrix, mother and medium. There is no life without water." Water is most commonly known as H2O, meaning 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom.

The hydrogen in a water molecule is slightly electropositive and the oxygen is slightly electronegative, meaning oxygen attracts electrons more strongly than hydrogen. When water is inside our bodies blood (93%), cerebral spinal fluid (99%), lymphatic fluid (95%) and cytoplasm/cytosol inside our cells (80%), and energy is added from the environment, it forms a liquid crystal gel, called fourth phase water as described by Dr. Gerald Pollack.

This energy can be full spectrum sunlight, free electrons from grounding, electrons from drinking water or consuming food, exposure to a native magnetic field like a magnet, infrared light radiation and so on. This infinitely adaptive water inside our body in this form becomes an electromagnetic capacitor storing energy and information from our environmental light, sound, electric and magnetic field exposures. This water also becomes a superconductive charge channelling piezoelectric hexagonal crystalline pathway for electrons around the entire body.

It’s important to remember that water molecules connect everything in biology and our water constantly dances between its fourth phase structured state and it’s bulk water state.

It needs to transition back to its ‘bulk water’ state with the primary purpose of being a cofactor for every biochemical reaction body wide. Once the structured water is filled with these instructions and vibrational energetics it hydrates our DNA and all proteins to form the structure of our entire body. And this structure is continually held together because water holds an electromagnetic memory, as the Nobel Prize winner Dr. Luc Montagnier demonstrated with his experiments.

This memory is thus initially set up by our biologic surface (eyes, skin, gut, and lungs) exposure to the light, water and magnetism in our environment and is then coded into our proteins whilst we sleep. 

This is why our cell membranes are all loaded with structured water and why REM and deep sleep are so important for maintaining a healthy structure; evidenced by these stages of sleep showing such compelling evidence of benefits to brain health and memory retention respectively.

Water in our bodies takes all the environmental signals outside and transmits these to the mitochondria inside to put them to work. Thus, the mitochondria are electromagnetic sensors which decipher the information in sunlight with water helping facilitate this process.

Mitochondria then instructs cellular work, such as detoxification, regeneration, growth and metabolism, orchestrating hormones like leptin, melatonin, growth hormone, thyroid hormone and cortisol. This is why to put it simply, sunlight interacting with water is the Rosetta stone for deciphering biophysics within the living system.

Although the current belief in medicine is that the generation of ATP, via oxidative phosphorylation, is the body’s primary energy source that fuels all growth and metabolism in the human body, the study of aquaphotomics is now finding that coherent structured water, made by our colony of mitochondria, in its gel-like fourth phase, interacting with light primarily in the infrared range, is the dominant process by which energy is generated in order to fuel the body’s high energy demands.

Dr. Gilbert Ling pioneered this discovery after he showed that the amount of ATP required to carry out all biochemical tasks could not have been made by normal respiration of the mitochondria; and as such light-water interaction is even more primordial than the mitochondria.

To take this just a little further for you to the very edge of science at present, we are now realizing melanin’s central role in facilitating the light-water interaction, but that is a whole other exciting biophysics rabbit hole which demonstrates the importance of having as much melanin as possible on your surfaces to utilize nature’s light, water, and magnetism even more optimally. But back to water.

When this IR light (especially around 3,100nm) interacts with the water networks inside our body, the water becomes structured into coherent crystalline domains where so-called exclusion zones (EZ) exclude substances larger than the size of a proton. This zone excludes pesticides like glyphosate, heavy metals and other toxins carrying a positive charge. These EZs are a space where net negative charge dominates. These negatively charged EZs are what power the -50mV which Dr. Jerry Tennant showed us is required to allow the body to create new cells.

The larger the EZ, the larger the net negative charge available to do ‘work’ whatever that may be for the body in any given moment; build more muscle, send blood to the feet, clear out toxins, wire new neurons in the brain, and so on. This positions the interaction of sunlight (especially the IR portion) and water (made by the mitochondria) in our physiology as perhaps the most foundational energy source for human life. 

We can now determine that water within the body is paramount. Most biology text books will tell you that a byproduct of cellular energy production is water. We now know that this water production is vital in creating the hydrated structural interface with which our entire body facilitates internal and external communication and energy transfer. It may be controversial to say but we would suggest that the byproduct of water production is energy production in the form of ATP. That’s how important we believe water is! And even more importantly this water is unique from water we drink not just because it is structured but also because it is deuterium depleted and hence more metabolically optimized to work with sunlight.

The sun provides our body with electric and magnetic field energy, light energy, biochemical instructions and facilitates charge channeling. Mitochondria do the job of the sun within our body. They produce magnetic fields via their electric charge channelling, they produce electric fields by their large potential energy voltages, they release light in the form of biophotons and thus structure water within cells. They signal the production of biomolecules and they make structured water. Thus, mitochondria are our internal sun!

If the outside signals are as nature intended such as the sound of the birds singing, waves crashing, tree leaves blowing, fresh clean air, sunlight shining, earth beneath your bare feet supporting you, content people, animals and plants around you and present consciousness without overthinking anything, then the mitochondria will work to optimise your health. When the environment is filled with artificial light, wireless telecommunication radiation, dopaminergic notifications and alarms waking you up and keeping you on edge, manufactured sounds aimed to addict you to their calls, construction work ongoing down the road, industrial polluted air, synthetic food, chemicals like chlorine and fluorine in drinking water, overthinking and analysing because of daily repetitive stressors, and being around other stressed organisms will mobilise the mitochondria to attempt to save your life by creating dis-ease or dis-order in your body to slow you down and give you the message to change the environmental information signals.

Everything in your body occurs because it is signalled to do so.

Without the signal, there is no function. The most basic of this signalling is your ultradian, circadian and infradian rhythms.

Scientists have shown that proteins are only created when circadian signals are received at the right time, demonstrating the importance of your cells to know what time it is. When you stand on the earth with your bare feet and face the sun, it is akin to looking at a clock. Your cells ask “Is it time for me to make a specific hormone yet?” and your biologic rhythms reply with precision instantly “not yet, but it will be in 7.824561 seconds”.

Once the timing is right the gears start turning, the amino acids are selected, proteins are assembled and hormones are created. If you are unplugged from the earth and/or the sun, and your cells ask the same question, but your body will be searching in the dark through its memory banks and the best it can do is to take a guess at whether the time is right.

Your answer will be less precise and thus, the protein you need in order to grow new cells and perform at your best, will be mistimed to some degree or somewhat incoherent.

Let’s say you are standing barefoot on the grass outdoors once again with the sun shining on you. But you are wearing a t-shirt. Your stomach cells begin yelling out, “is it time yet, is it time yet!?” and your forearm cells yell back “it’s time, it’s time” but unfortunately there is a delay in the signal being received and the questions are being asked faster than the answer is being delivered.

This leaves your stomach playing catch up and experiencing a most basic circadian mismatch in timing.

The same signalling internal signalling issues occur when eating food out of season that did not grow in your local environment; but that’s a whole other rabbit hole which ends with eat locally/seasonally/fresh and during sunlight hours.

The less barriers between you and nature, the more precise your ability to tell time and consequently the more timely your biologic mechanisms to deliver you optimal function. Because you are a health and performance seeker, we can bet that you would like to know how to make your biological timing even more accurate beyond your cells looking directly at the clock!

The answer is revealed when you experience the disconnection from man-made environments and reconnect with nature's stacked energy and information waveforms of sound, light, electric and magnetic flux. When you are touching the earth, with minimal clothing on, under the power of full spectrum sunlight (51% red and infrared) and have exposure to a cold stimulus, the result will be the best version of your mitochondrial performance available to you. While all this is going on the biophysics is at work in the background sculpting the mechanisms that shape your energy and structure.
