The Mystical Heart

In mystical traditions, the heart is often considered the seat of the soul and a sacred vessel of divine love and universal consciousness. It is not merely a physical organ but represents the deeper, spiritual essence of a person. The mystical heart is believed to be the gateway through which divine wisdom, spiritual energy, and intuitive knowledge flow. It is through the heart that a person connects with the divine, experiencing love, compassion, and unity with all of creation.

Center of Divine Love:

The mystical heart is often described as the source of divine love, embodying unconditional compassion and a deep, intuitive understanding of truth. In spiritual terms, it is the center of connection with the higher self, the Divine, and all other beings. The heart’s energy is said to influence every aspect of our spiritual journey, from our emotional states to our relationship with the cosmos.

Heart as a Spiritual Conduit:

In many mystical traditions, such as Sufism and Christian mysticism, the heart is a conduit for divine grace. It is the spiritual center where one can achieve inner peace and enlightenment, where the soul’s purpose is revealed and where true spiritual wisdom can be accessed. This wisdom is not just intellectual, but a deep, intuitive knowing that transcends the mind and connects to the heart of the universe.

The Nervous System

The nervous system, from a mystical perspective, is the intricate network through which the body and mind communicate. It plays a crucial role in how we experience the world, process emotions, and respond to stimuli. Spiritually, the nervous system can be seen as a medium through which life force energy (or prana, chi, or ki) flows. It is how the soul communicates with the physical body and expresses the higher truths through physical sensations and emotional responses.

Connection to the Physical and Spiritual Realms:

The nervous system is deeply connected to the physical body, but in mystical traditions, it is also viewed as a spiritual channel that connects the individual to the divine realm. The flow of spiritual energy through the nervous system influences our perception of reality, emotional states, and spiritual consciousness. This is why practices like meditation, yoga, and breath work are used to calm and re-align the nervous system to foster spiritual awareness.

Energy Pathways:

The nervous system can be viewed as a network of energy pathways through which life force flows, particularly through the chakras (energy centers of the body). In mystical teachings, the alignment of the nervous system with the energy body is key to achieving spiritual health. The heart, as the central spiritual organ, works in harmony with the nervous system to align the physical and spiritual realms.

The Connection Between the Mystical Heart and the Nervous System

In mystical teachings, the mystical heart is the central point where the spiritual and physical realms converge. Here’s how the heart and the nervous system interact from a mystical perspective:

Heart as the Source of Energetic Communication:

The heart is not just an organ that pumps blood, but is considered a vortex of divine energy. This energy influences the nervous system through its emotional, spiritual, and energetic qualities. When the heart is open and aligned with divine love, it radiates an energetic field that affects the nervous system in profound ways. For example, when an individual feels deep compassion or love, their nervous system may relax, promoting calmness, peace, and balance.

Emotional Regulation and the Heart:

The nervous system governs the body’s fight or flight responses, emotional regulation, and mental clarity. When the heart’s energy is harmonized with the nervous system, it promotes a state of emotional balance. Heart-centered perception can lead to calmer emotional reactions because the heart, in its connection to divine love, helps to temper intense emotions and allows for higher consciousness to guide the body’s responses to external situations.

Transmutation of Negative Energy:

Mystically, the heart is often seen as a transformer of negative energy. The heart can help transmute fear, anger, or anxiety into positive energy when it is open and aligned with divine wisdom. In this process, the nervous system is also healed. The mystical heart is said to purify the emotional body, allowing for the smooth flow of energy through the nervous system and creating harmony between the mind and the body.

Healing Through Heart-Centered Perception:

Mystical traditions emphasize that healing occurs when one perceives life through the heart. This form of perception is not filtered through the ego or intellectual mind but comes directly from the heart’s connection to the Divine. As this perception flows through the nervous system, it helps to release stored trauma, emotional blockages, and tension in the body, leading to greater spiritual alignment and physical well-being.

Activation of Higher Frequencies:

The heart, in esoteric and mystical traditions, is seen as the center of divine light and love. When we cultivate heart-centered awareness, we activate higher frequencies of consciousness. These frequencies influence the nervous system, shifting it from lower states of fear and stress to higher states of love, compassion, and spiritual insight. In this state, the nervous system functions optimally, promoting health, peace, and spiritual awareness.

Aspects of the Nervous System being addresses:

Central Nervous System

The central nervous system (CNS) is responsible for a wide array of cognitive functions, which can be broadly categorized into memory, attention, language, executive functions, perception, motor control, emotional processing, decision-making, and social cognition. The brain processes sensory information, manages physical responses, and allows for higher-order thinking and decision-making. Dysfunction in the CNS can impact these cognitive abilities, leading to conditions like memory loss, cognitive impairment, attention deficits, motor disorders, and emotional dysregulation. Understanding the CNS’s role in these processes helps in diagnosing and treating various neurological and psychological conditions.

Addressing:

• Cognitive and Mental Processing 
• Perception 
• Memory
• Language 
• Emotional Processing
• Attention
• Executive Functions
• Motor Control
• Decision-Making
• Social Cognition

Peripheral Nervous System

The peripheral nervous system is an essential network that links the central nervous system to the body and facilitates communication between the brain and the rest of the body. It plays a vital role in sensation, movement, emotional response, and autonomic functions that regulate bodily systems.

Addressing:

• Streams of Consciousness 
• Bringing forth abilities from past lives
• Nervous System & Stress Patterns
• Chronic stress or trauma causes muscle bracing, especially in:
• Neck and shoulders (holding tension or fear)
• Jaw (suppressed emotion or control)
• Lower back and hips (safety and survival response)
• Stress and trauma also inhibit other muscles (e.g., glutes, diaphragm) due to nervous system shutdown (freeze or collapse).
• Homeostatic Emotions 
• Armoring
• Negative adaptive strategies
• External solutions for internal problems 
• Sensory Information 
• Pain Stimuli
• Muscle Memory
• Trauma Loops
• Self Sabotage 

Somatic Nervous System

The somatic nervous system (SNS) plays an essential role in regulating voluntary motor functions and sensory perception. It provides the pathway for the brain to communicate with the muscles and sensory receptors throughout the body, allowing for conscious control of movements and the experience of sensory stimuli. Through its control of voluntary movements and the processing of sensory information, the SNS is crucial for interacting with the environment and performing daily activities. It works in tandem with other systems in the body to ensure proper coordination, balance, and response to external stimuli.

Addressing:

• Harmonizing the body
• Accelerate and jump start the healing processes
• Releasing emotions
• Releasing thought forms
• Pain processing 
• Diminishing inner resistances to yourself
• Somatic- Contrary
• Somatic- Deserving / Expectation
• Somatic- Avoidance / Dismissiveness 
• Somatic- Fixation

Autonomic Nervous System

The autonomic nervous system is essential for maintaining the automatic functions of the body that are crucial for survival, such as heart rate, digestion, respiration, and temperature regulation. The ANS consists of two primary divisions—the sympathetic nervous system (which activates the “fight-or-flight” response) and the parasympathetic nervous system (which promotes “rest-and-digest” functions). These systems work together to keep the body in a balanced state, adjusting to both internal and external demands. By regulating these involuntary processes, the ANS ensures the body’s homeostasis and supports overall health and well-being.

Addressing:

• Improving rest and repair mod
• Diminishing the tendencies of the following responses-
• Fight
• Flight
• Freeze
• Fawn
