When we diminish our vital energy by using it to suppress emotional energy, our body becomes deprived of the energy it needs and this leads to depression, anxiety and physical illness.
We know from the science of physics that energy vibrates at different rates and that these vibrations result in differences of appearance and experience—the denser the energy, the more solid the object appears. Similarly, each color has its own vibration, and the difference in the rate of vibration creates the distinction between red, green, yellow, blue and so on. Musical notes also vibrate at different rates, resulting in different sounds like B-flat, D-sharp, high C.
