MIND-BODY & CD4+ / T CELLS

A STUDY revealed that front line healthcare workers who had elevated T Cell / CD 4 Cell counts were profoundly less likely to contract COVID 19 than their peers who did.

Pre-Existing T Cells Play Key Role in SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Vaccination

The researchers identified a peptide (S816-830) in the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein that CD4+ T cells in all groups—even those unexposed to SARS-CoV-2—recognized. The S816-830 protein was recognized by CD4+ T cells in 20% of unexposed individuals, in over 50% of SARS-CoV-2 convalescents, and in 97% of subjects treated with the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine.

The GLOBAL TRANSFORMATION PROJECT is a worldwide citizen campaign to USE SCIENCE in PUBLIC EDUCATION ... to save the world TRILLIONS ANNUALLY & create a kinder world

Our nation spends nearly $3.5 trillion each year, according to a February 2018 Reuters’ article by Yasmeen Abutaleb “U.S. Healthcare Spending to Climb 5.3% in 2018” [1]. Therefore, you could put this book down right now and walk away knowing that meditation should already be taught in all schools starting today. The Reuter’s article went on to explain that by 2026 current trends show health spending will reach $5.7 trillion, if things do not change—and they can so easily change by simply educating every school child in mind-body meditation.

60% to 90% of all health issues are caused by stress & best treated by Mind-Body Education

Trillions in Healthcare Savings!
Beginning with the most tangible and practical of benefits, we will start with how the world can easily and inexpensively save trillions of dollars in saved future annual healthcare costs.

The world spends over 8 trillion dollars per year on healthcare[1]. Several years ago, I read a multi-year study conducted by one of the world’s largest health institutions revealing that around 70% of all the illness sending people to their doctors was caused by stress. Not aggravated by stress, but caused by stress. After seeing this study, I called Dr. David Sobel, a Kaiser Permanente physician familiar with the research, to make sure I read this amazing fact correctly. He excitedly explained that depending on how you looked at the data, that number could go even higher than 70% of illness being caused by stress! Dr. Herbert Benson of Harvard states that between 60% to 90% of illness can be most effectively treated with Mind Body Education—Meditation, Tai Chi, Yoga, Qigong, Mindfulness.

MIND-BODY EDUCATION CAN BE OFFERED K-12 IN AGE APPROPRIATE WAYS. Mind Body Experts Worldwide are Already Teaching Mind-Body Education K-University

Israel's World Tai Chi Day teaching children

ANIMAL QIGONG (CHI KUNG)

The Global Transformation Project starts with a United Nations Resolution advocating Mind Body Education as a "core" part of Public Education worldwide. Of course, no country would be "required" to use this science, and we advocate that no child/student should be "forced" to take the daily Mind-Body course GTP advocates for schools worldwide. Our UN Resolution is to utilize the UN, WHO, etc. to spread the science on Mind-Body Education to public educators worldwide.

Once the UN Resolution is achieved, a next step is creating a model curriculum ... involving the big 5 science based Mind Body sciences; Yoga, Tai Chi, Qigong (Chi Kung), Meditation & Mindfulness

Here, we show how Mind Body Education can be taught at age appropriate ways, that would result after 12 years of Public Education (one hour per day) is a vastly improved global immunity, trillions in saved health costs annually, less violent crime and social distortion, less depressed and anxious citizens, and ultimately a more harmonious planet -- according to science.

Reduce Police / Prison Costs and Reduce Violent Crime Worldwide!

Neurological, Crime, and Social/Behavioral Scientific Data Reveals the World Can Solve Many Expensive Social Costs via Mind-Body Education in Public Education Worldwide!

Yet this hospital experience revealed to me an even greater potential of these practices, one of changing the consciousness and behavior of our entire planet.

Report from a meditation student in class:
“You know Bill, I’ve noticed since I started meditation, I don’t flip nearly as many people off on the freeway as I used to.”

My imagination was initially sparked when one of the health professionals attending that first hospital session, an ER (Emergency Room) physician, was so affected by these practices I introduced him to that he resigned from his ER position and began a private naturopathic medical practice in another city where he is very successful today. He was at first perplexed and a bit frustrated

by the meditation practices taught in my class. Then a few weeks later, he told me, “Bill, I think I get the meditation now.”

When I asked him to expand on that, he replied, “My ER staff told me this week, ‘John, we don’t know what you’ve been doing, but you are way easier to get along with, so please keep doing it.’”

Years later, because of a best-selling Tai Chi book I had written, I was invited to present Tai Chi and Meditation to inmates at Folsom State Prison in California, where I discovered that they had actually had a Tai Chi Chih program for about 2 years before I arrived. One inmate in that group tracking prison statistics over those years found that not only had behavior rates improved for the meditation group, but for the entire prison. The recidivism rates (return to prison rates) which are normally as high as 70% in American prisons, had dropped to about 30% for the meditation group—and again, incident rates/behavior rates for the entire prison had improved.

I would later learn of Apodaca Prison in Mexico—the site of one of Mexico’s most violent prison events—which saw ZERO events of extreme violence after implementing a meditation program for 700 inmates, and prison guards and administrators, as reported by Mimi Yagoub, writing for InSight Crime, in a November 16, 2016 article entitled, “How Meditation Reduced Violence in a Mexico Prison.” [1]

I began to wonder ‘What the heck is going on here?’ How could a mind-body technique improve the behavior of not just meditators, but of the entire institution? This sparked my interest in not just the medical research on physical health aspects of mind-body practices, but on the effects in the brain, nervous system, and behavior of practitioners of meditation—eventually leading me to breakthroughs in physics and chaos mathematics, as I strove to understand how changes “inside meditator’s brains” could somehow affect the people, institutions, and communities around those meditators.

BOOST IMMUNITY, Increase Intelligence/Creativity, Reduce Depression, Anxiety, and a Host of Health Challenges Worldwide!

According to an April 8, 2011 article in Harvard Health Publications, “Mindfulness meditation improves connections in the brain” [1] by Carolyn Schatz; science is finding that mindfulness meditation helps with many physical and psychological problems: high blood pressure, chronic pain, psoriasis, sleep trouble, anxiety, and depression, to name a few. In February 2014 an article by Timothy Eden, was published by HuffingtonPost, titled “Meditation: Are Scientists Missing the Point?” [2] This article cited a Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) report on a meta-analysis showing that meditation is as effective as medication in treating people dealing with depression and anxiety disorders. It went on to cite evidence that meditation offers multitudinous physical health benefits, pointing out that meditation is recommended by the American Heart Association for preventing stroke and heart disease.

Harvard Health Publishing’s Caroline Schatz article mentioned above, also reported meditation’s ability to bolster immune function and to end binge eating in practitioners. Other studies found mindful meditation reduced common colds by half, and Qigong (chi

kung), a Chinese form of meditation, profoundly reduced respiratory infections in athletes. An October 2014 article published on power20method.com,[3] “Meditation & Exercise May Reduce Colds & Flu,” cited a University of Wisconsin-Madison Medical School’s Department of Family Medicine study involving a meditating group, an exercising group, and a control group. They found that the group practicing exercise did miss half as many days from work as the non-exercising control group—however, the group practicing meditation only missed half as many days as the exercising group did.

Anecdotal reports in my classes match this, many students sharing how many fewer sick days they suffer, and how their allergies lessen or go away over time, after starting my Tai Chi, Qigong, and Meditation classes.

I mentioned meditation can actually have a healing effect on our DNA. Research has shown that meditation fundamentally changes our physical body’s basic building block–the genes within our DNA structure. Dr. Herbert Benson (author of “The Relaxation Response;” “Beyond the Relaxation Response;” and “Relaxation Revolution”), a pioneer in mind-body research at Harvard, said that research indicates that meditation may turn certain genes on and off, including genes involved with controlling how the body handles free radicals, cell death, and inflammation processes. An April 2011 article by Harvard Health Publications titled “Relaxation response affects gene activity” [4] reported on how ‘relaxation response’ [meditative] techniques can turn certain genes on or off.

Research reported in the International Journal of Neuroscience 16: 53-58, 1982, published on PubMed.gov, titled “The effects of the transcendental meditation and TM-Sidhi program on the aging process” by RK Wallace; M. Dillbeck; E. Jacobe; and B. Harrington;[5] showed long-term meditators’ biological age indicators were 12 years younger than people’s normal mean biological age indicators.

Meditation increases the size of gray matter. In a study published December 2010, on ScienceDirect.com, titled “Mindfulness practice leads to increases in regional brain gray matter density” by Britta K.Hölzel, James Carmody, Mark Vangel, Christina Congleton, Sita M.Yerramsetti, Tim Gard, and Sara W. Lazara,[6] density in gray matter increased in the mindfulness group over the control group, in various areas of the brain including those associated with learning, memory and emotional regulation.

Following my 2013 Hong Kong meeting with U.S. Consulate staff about the value of expanding awareness of Tai Chi and Qigong Meditation benefits; Professor William Tsang of Hong Kong Polytechnic University shared data from their laboratory research. It showed that elderly Tai Chi practitioners showed perceptual and reactive accuracy similar to much younger test subjects, while their elderly non-Tai Chi practicing counterparts were much less able to detect and react to stimulus on a computer screen, indicating Tai Chi Meditation slows aspects of aging.

Some schools worldwide are beginning to teach mindfulness meditation to students. A March 15, 2013 article in ScienceDaily, “Mindfulness at school reduces (likelihood of) depression-related symptoms in adolescents”[7] by KU Leuven, found benefits students got from meditation were still enjoyed even 6 months after the study.

Other research on Tai Chi Meditation techniques has shown that people dealing with type 2 diabetes, heart disease, COPD, chronic pain, and other chronic health issues can benefit from Tai Chi, and that these techniques are powerful stress management tools that can actually repair damaged DNA. Find details on more Tai Chi Meditation benefits in a September 2012 article by Patrick B. Massey, M.D., Ph.D., titled “Practicing Tai Chi May Promote a Longer Life,” [8]published by the Daily Herald.

Harvard Women’s Health Watch published an article on Harvard Health Publishing in August 2019, titled “Health Benefits of Tai

Chi” [9]which referred to the mindfulness meditation of Tai Chi as "medication in motion" for all the myriad health benefits it offers.

A February 2012 New England Journal of Medicine published study by Fuzhong Li Ph.D.; Peter Harmer Ph.D., M.P.H.; Kathleen Fitzgerald, M.D.; Elizabeth Eckstrom, M.D., M.P.H.; Ronald Stock, M.D.; Johnny Galver, P.T.; Gianni F. Maddalozza, Ph.D.; and Sara S. Batya, M.D.; titled “Postural Stability in Patients with Parkinson’s Disease,” [10] found Tai Chi is very beneficial to those with Parkinson’s disease, over standard exercise.

The Harvard Medical School Guide to Tai Chi, by Peter Wayne, Ph.D., in a section on ‘cognitive function, neuroplasticity, and dementia’[11], reported on a large trial finding that after 1 year a Tai Chi group showed greater improvements in cognitive performance than a group assigned to a stretching toning program, and fewer of the Tai Chi group progressed to dementia. This book reported that Tai Chi reduced symptoms in those with arthritis and fibromyalgia over control groups, and helped reduce stress, anxiety and depression, and reduced ADHD symptoms in teens and children, who showed better results with Tai Chi than in a typical gym class where symptoms worsened.

The Harvard Medical School Guide to Tai Chi also covers research showing that Tai Chi can improve bone density. It also reported studies showing Tai Chi improved quality of life, self-esteem, and function (including aerobic capacity, muscular strength, and flexibility) for those dealing with breast cancer while those in a control group getting supportive therapy declined in these areas.

Again and again you find something special and unique about mind-body meditative exercise like Tai Chi over standard physical exercise. There is something about that meditative mind state that Tai Chi requires. A December 12, 2018 study—published on European Review of Aging and Physical Activity at eurapa.biomedcentral.com, titled “Effects of Tai Chi Yunshou exercise on community-based stroke patients: a cluster randomized controlled trial,”[12] done by Guanli Xie, Ting Rao, Lili Lin, Zhengkun Lin, Tianshen Xiao, Ming’ge Yang, Ying Xu, Jinmei Fan, Shufang Lin, Jinsong Wu, Xiaodong Feng, Li Li, Jing Tao, & Lidian Chen—found that the Tai Chi therapy outperformed balance rehabilitation training in several categories.

The Mayo Clinic’s website, in an article titled “Meditation: A simple, fast way to reduce stress” [13]by the Mayo Clinic Staff, cited research showing that meditation can wipe away daily stress. This is hugely important because stress wreaks havoc by saturating the body with stress hormones. On the Dr. Oz Show’s website, Dr. Natasha Turner, naturopathic physician and author of The Supercharged Hormone Diet, [14] explained on DoctorOz.com, that when we experience constant increases in stress hormone levels it hurts our health—causing us to eat more and crave more, become depressed more, lose bone density and muscle mass, and essentially become older than we are. [15]

Research on meditation shows human consciousness may be a highly evolved pharmacy or nanotechnology that can powerfully impact our cellular biology. In March 2007, an article by Miranda Hitti on WebMD cited a UCLA study on Tai Chi titled “Tai Chi May Boost Immune System,” [16]finding that a Tai Chi group boosted their immune system’s response to nearly twice that of a control group. Not mentioned in this article, though, was a European study which saw helper T cell counts increase by 100% for Tai Chi practitioners. Helper T cells consume virus, bacteria, and even tumor cells.

A February 2003 article in the New York Times by Daniel Goleman titled “Finding Happiness: Cajole Your Brain to Lean to the Left,” [17] cited research by Dr. Richard Davidson, the director of the Laboratory for Affective Neuroscience at the University of Wisconsin, using functional M.R.I. and advanced EEG analysis, which found that the most active brain circuitry during emotional distress—depression, anger, and anxiety—were the amygdala and right frontal cortex areas.

Stressed-out workers who served as test subjects were taught how to practice mindfulness meditation. Researchers saw their brain activity shift more to the left frontal cortex, which Dr. Davidson believed inhibited the anxiety messages from the amygdala that power unsettling emotions. These workers experienced boosted immune system function in the form of higher levels of flu antibodies in their blood following a flu shot, as compared to workers who did not meditate. Also, Dr. Davidson cited other research showing that those who learned meditation, who did contract the flu, experienced less severe flu symptoms.

Europe PMC published an abstract from Psychosomatic Medicine, 49: 493-507,[18]reporting a study on insurance statistics for over 2,000 people practicing meditation over a 5-year period, which showed these meditators had less than half the hospitalization than did the other groups with comparable age, gender, profession, and insurance terms. Meditators had less incidents of illness in 17 major categories, including 87% less hospitalization for heart disease and 55% less for cancer. In a Meditation 24/7 article (see footnote link), are a list of even more benefits.[19]

As these mind-body tools spread aggressively and massively throughout society through education, healthcare, senior care, corporate wellness, etc., because they can relieve physical/mental suffering and save trillions nationally and worldwide in health costs—other profound shifts and possibilities unfold.

Emerging research follows that shows meditation enhances the brain’s ability to think creatively, to be more flexible and open minded to new information, and ultimately increases our intelligence—thereby creating a new evolutionary generation with expanded intelligence, creativity, and cognitive skills. With access to trillions of dollars each year saved from health cost savings, these expanded minds could lead to the creation of a whole new world of profoundly exciting possibility.

Sue McGreevey reported on in a Harvard Gazette article from January 2011 titled “Eight Weeks to a Better Brain,” [20] research at Massachusetts General Hospital finding the density of gray matter increased in regions associated with learning and memory (hippocampus), compassion, and self-awareness, and shrinkage in the amygdala part of the brain governing fear and stress, resulting in lower stress levels.

A Harvard Health Publishing’s article “Mindfulness meditation practice changes the brain,” [21]cited research showing meditators’ computing or processing neurons had higher concentrations, and they were able to regulate their emotions, taking in information while being less judgmental. Their brains had increased concentration of neurons associated with introspection, empathy, and the ability to acknowledge the viewpoints of others—in other words becoming more open-minded. Imagine for a moment, meditation being integrated into public education worldwide, and in 12 years having a new generation of more “open-minded” people.

A Meditation 24/7 article “What are the benefits of meditation?”[22] cited research showing meditation can enable us to become more creative thinkers as well, as shown by a study published in the Journal of Creative Behavior, and Dissertation Abstracts International. Using the Torrance Test of Creative Thinking to measure figural and verbal creativity in a control group and in a group that subsequently learned meditation, the researchers found that 5 months later when tested the meditation group scored significantly higher on figural originality and flexibility and on verbal fluency. Imagine, in a world exploding in possibility with technological advances happening at blinding speed—what a new generation of youth with increased creativity, flexibility, and enhanced communication skills could create—is very literally beyond anything we could imagine.

Not only does meditation improve our behavior, making us more humane, and also enhance our creativity, but it also can make us more intelligent. As evidenced by two studies: Personality and Individual Differences and Perceptual and Motor Skills, cited in Meditation 24-7 in their article “What are the benefits of meditation?” [25]The studies involved university students who regularly practiced meditation who saw significant increase in intelligence over a two-year period, compared to control subjects. Imagine a world filled with more intelligent people!
