Interesting Facts of Heart
- When assessing our health, the first vital sign the doctor or health worker looks for is our heartbeat.
- 10-ounce muscle can pump about 2,000 gallons of blood through some 60,000 miles of blood vessels each day.
- A tap should be open for 45 years to draw enough water to match the amount of blood pumped by the heart in an average life.
- The heart generates its own electrical energy and can continue to beat even when it is removed from the body provided it receives enough oxygen.
- The energy that the heart creates is enough to drive a truck 20 miles every day, and if you collect that energy during a person's life, you will have enough to drive to the moon and back.
- 4-In the human fetus, the heart begins to beat even before the brain has developed.
The heart continues to show its importance. Since the dawn of time, the seat of emotion, virtue, courage and wisdom has been considered.
What Ancient culture believes on heart?
Ancient cultures believed that the heart intervenes in the determination of our decisions. Poets and romantics have always celebrated the heart as the embodiment of love, romance and passion. Artists have rendered their hearts in infinite creative and surprising ways, from burning to being hard as stone.
In his classic "The Little Prince", the writer Antoine de Saint-Exupery raised it forever by declaring that "only with the heart can you see correctly."
It is ironic that science and human understanding are finally beginning to understand and validate what human consciousness has always been safe: there is more in the heart than it seems.
Beyond simply pumping blood to the rest of the body, scientists have discovered that the heart can play a larger and more robust role in the direction and alignment of many systems in the human body so that they all function harmoniously.
Brain and heart communication
A new discipline called neurocardiology has emerged, which focuses on the nervous system within the heart (also known as the "brain" of the heart) and how the heart and brain communicate with each other through the nervous system.
That the heart and the brain maintain a constant dialogue is significant. Previously it had been thought that the brain directed all other biological mechanisms of the human body. New evidence suggests that the brain is the object of control, rather than the controller.
In 2007, the eminent neuroscientist Dr. Richard Davidson of Harvard University presented his research on how social and emotional learning changes the brain. This and other discoveries tell us that the heart really controls the brain, particularly in matters of intuition, creativity, spirituality and other "right brain" thinking modes.
Research continues at the Institute of Mathematics of the Heart (IHM) has discovered that the heart communicates with the brain through four channels:
1. Neurological communication through the nervous system.
2. Biophysical communication through pulse waves.
3. Biochemical communication through hormones.
4. Energy communication through magnetic fields.
The heart sends instructions to the brain through each of these channels.
Our heart on emotion & decision making
The mind responds to these signals of the heart by transforming its state accordingly; It synchronizes with the current state of the heart. The interaction is nothing short of fascinating.
If the heart, for example, is in a negative emotional state, then it sends the corresponding negative signals to the brain. The brain processes these negative messages and directs the rest of the body accordingly. That's why when you suffer from a negative emotion, the rest of your being seems to echo that negativity as well.
There can even be coherence between two different people, when the magnetic field generated by one person's heart is synchronized with that of the other. Perhaps this is what people really mean when they say they feel "good vibes" with certain people, or "bad vibes" when they are with other people.
The importance of these two new discoveries opens up endless new possibilities in the growth of human consciousness and understanding.
If the heart can influence the mind, then it would be possible to create positive opportunities for the individual simply by encouraging positive thoughts and emotions, and keeping the heart in a positive or happy state.
