Did you know that each one of your cells holds more power than a lightning strike?
The mitochondria of healthy cells have an electrical field strength of around 30 million volts per meter. That number is enormous because the membrane potential of -180mV (on average) is applied to a minuscule area (5 nm). Every cell contains hundreds to thousands of these little engine-like organelles. And your body is made of approximately 36 trillion cells. This is an outstanding amount of power. Ponder that for an instant. You are way more powerful than you might think.
The human body is an exquisite living system of incomparable complexity and intelligence. The feats accomplished by your body at every instant without you even realizing it are executed through the movement of electrons. Cellular voltage reflects how many electrons are available to execute biological activity.
Your cells bathe in water in which charged ions are dissolved. The ionic gradient between the internal and external environment is what is referred to as cellular voltage. The more charge your cells hold, the more electrons they have to perform work. Hence, your capacity to heal is directly proportional to the voltage stored in your cells. This is the premise that led Dr. Jerry Tennant to write the book called Healing is Voltage.
Dr. Tennant’s work lays out that a normal healthy cell operates at around -25 mV. Note here that the value is negative because it measures a quantity of electrons, which are negatively charged. Children will generally operate at a slightly higher level of electrical potential, around -35 mV. To replicate itself into a brand new cell, the internal environment has to increase to -50 mV.
When one is feeling fatigued, that is reflected in a decrease in voltage to about -15 mV. Illness arises when cells drop to -10 mV (or their charge rises to -10 mV, since these are negative values). Cancer occurs when the internal environment is at +30 mV. Here the value is positive, meaning that the cell is in an electronic deficit (it has more protons than electrons). This polarity reversal is characteristic of cancer cells and explains why they can’t use oxygen properly and exhibit anomalous, anarchical behaviors. A future blog about the biophysics of cancer will be written. Stay tuned.
As you can see, health is not black or white. It exists on a spectrum. The more charge is available to your cells, the more biological activity they can accomplish, the better you become at fighting entropy—the loss of energy and information leading to aging and disease.
Everyone can benefit from taking care of their health, because how well one feels has no limits. If health is not already a priority to you, perhaps because you are already somewhat healthy (living symptom and illness-free), I would like to highlight that when your cells have more power than needed to do their daily maintenance and activities, that remaining charge goes to power your mind, your creativity, elevate your mood, and your performance so that you can become truly limitless. This is also when you can reach the realms of higher consciousness. This is how you can truly actualize your full potential and savour the gift of life. Beyond merely being fine, the work proposed in the Floraissance Path aims to take you to the highest level of human experience. Start dreaming, because your cells hold the power to make your wildest dreams a reality.
On the other hand, if you are experiencing symptoms of any kind, this is a sign that your cells are running on low battery. If you are dealing with chronic illness, the battery is on “energy-saving mode” and not only is biological function compromised, so is your quality of life is most likely close to nonexistent. Trust me, I’ve been there, and this is why I am deeply passionate about helping others reclaim their cellular power.
In this technological era, we routinely charge our electronic devices. We understand that if our phone has no battery, it will not work. Well, the same goes for our bodies. The more you accumulate cells running on low battery, the harder your life will feel and disease will slowly creep in. The pattern I see all around is people going for sugar or coffee to pretend like they have energy. This is just stressing their cells further and draining them even more. This is not sustainable. I highly encourage everybody to take a look at the resources available on the Floraissance website to start elevating your life, and consider getting some personalized guidance if you are already dealing with the unpleasant consequences of living on “low battery mode.”
Do not forget: when the power returns, the body remembers.
In flow,
Florence
