The Emotion Code: How to Release Your Trapped Emotions for Abundant Health, Love, and Happiness (Updated and Expanded Edition)

by Bradley Nelson

In 1939, a Russian electrical technician named Semyon Kirlian discovered what is now known as Kirlian photography.1 Kirlian photography uses no light as in traditional photography; instead it uses pulsed, high-voltage frequencies to take pictures of the radiating energy fields that surround all living things. The technique is also referred to as gas discharge visualization, or GDV. Since its discovery, Russian scientists have done a significant amount of research using Kirlian photography. They have found that all things exhibit the characteristics of an energy field, although living things have a much more vibrant energy field than inanimate objects.2 Perhaps the most striking Kirlian images are those of leaves that have been cut in half yet still show the complete, intact energy fields of the whole leaves.
