Brain Waves
Columbia Presbyterian Hospital Sleep Lab-2002-New York
“Jeff and I went to the sleep lab at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital to conduct an experiment on the use of Jeff’s energy system and it’s effect on the brain waves.
EEG leads were connected to my head (for what seemed like hours!!!) and the results were measured. I was very aware of what was going on in the room. There were approximately 7 or 8 people in the room, whispering and milling around. It was a big deal to see if this form of energy work could affect brain waves. Needless to say, the scientists and medical personnel were skeptical. Measurements were taken in a separate room and recorded. I was sitting down when Jeff applied his technique. We were all surprised when my standing alpha brain waves (we found out later) went from normal to theta in less than half of a second. I was very relaxed yet aware of what was going on in the room. We repeated this experiment 5 or 6 times. When Jeff took away the application of his energy technique, my brainwaves went back to a normal alpha state. Immediately upon application of his technique, the brainwaves went into theta in less than half a second.” — Cathy L.
