Chapter One

I was sitting in a dark psychology classroom, rays of light shining over my shoulder onto a silver screen. The loud rhythmic clicking of the projector distracted me from the chatter of the other students. The film was introducing case histories of various personality disorders. This seemingly inconsequential film had me riveted. I was particularly interested in the case of a woman with multiple personality disorder, and the manifestation of her two very distinct personalities. I was fascinated that whenever she shifted from one personality to the other, her physical appearance changed dramatically as well. There were demonstrative morphological changes in her posture, facial expressions, and gait. What wasn't clear to me then but is very clear now, is that these physical changes were in response to changes in her thoughts, beliefs and interactions with life events. Her two personalities had completely different personal beliefs therefore she reacted differently to the same life events depending on which personality was present.

This phenomenon is much the same in the case of monozygotic twins. These are twins that occur when a single egg is fertilized to form one zygote, which then divides into two separate embryos. The twins have identical DNA, but likely do not share the same personalities. Two genetically identical beings should develop into virtually identical adults but they do not. This proves that personality is not rigidly tied to DNA. Also, these genetically identical twins do not necessarily develop the same propensity for disease, longevity, and IQ. Each twin not only has a unique hardwired personality but each experiences life in their own unique way. From the very moment of conception, each twin's unique personality steers their destiny and their physical development. As the twins age, they become more distinct.

Traditional psychological theory further supports the idea that personality is linked to physicality. The psychologist William Herbert Sheldon Jr. correlated body morphology to personality type, organizing people into three primary types: endomorph, ectomorph and mesomorph. There are other theories as well correlating body shape, posture, and facial expressions with personalities and disease, particularly in the field of bioenergetics. The idea that personality can alter the physicality of the human being as it grows and develops has become clear to me as a physician. The longer we live the more our thoughts manifest our physicality.

The multiple personality patient in the film had different physical pathology in each of her personalities. One personality had symptoms of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The symptoms of this autoimmune disease are a red or malar rash below her eyes, inflamed and painful joints, and a mildly elevated blood level of rheumatoid factor. When the patient manifested the second personality for a sustained period of time, those SLE symptoms would disappear. The second personality had cardiac symptoms, including mitral valve pathology. It became clear to me that dis-ease was impermanent and that it could be changed and even eradicated by altering the personality. Idiopathic diseases came to my mind. These diseases have no known cause or origin and they often have an autoimmune component, where the body shuts down or even attacks itself for no known reason.

Here is an example from my own practice. I received a call from a distressed mother whose son had gone off to college and he started to experiment with drugs. While under the influence of the drugs, her son was involved in an altercation and sustained a head trauma. His behavior became more extreme, to the point he would be classified as psychotic. Though the head trauma caused no physical damage, he outwardly looked so different that his family and friends had a hard time believing he was the same guy. His mother, his girlfriend and many of his long-term friends were baffled because his whole demeanor changed completely and the more paranoid and delusional he became, the more pronounced the change was in his physical appearance. Unfortunately, these psycho-emotional changes also affected his internal physiology which in turn affected his overall health status. Physicality is intimately connected to the energetic blueprint of the body.

The E3 technique starts with energetics. This term comes from the physics principle that all things of this world exist in a minimum of two different states. One state is physical and the other is energetic and scientists have come to realize that matter exists in both these states simultaneously. Everything in our physical world is made up of atomic and eventually, subatomic particles. Albert Einstein devoted over twenty years of his life discerning whether subatomic particles were particles of...
