Introduction

Human brains are extremely complex, and this leads to constant fluctuation in emotional states which we are often unable to control. Our mental state is able to govern the health of our entire body, with negative emotions harming our overall wellbeing.

F-effect provides a closed system, using visual and audio stimulation to focus the mind and body into a desired state. By removing external distractors and forcing an individual to focus on its immediate surroundings, F-Effect is able to govern the mental state of the individual. This can be useful for people who are struggling with mental health disorders such as generalised anxiety disorder or depression as it causes their negative emotions to subside, leading to a healthier body over time due to the lack of negative emotions experienced. F-Effect can also be useful for those who are suffering from neurological conditions such as dementia and autism, and even individuals recovering from physical conditions such as heart surgery.

Improving mental health with F-Effect

Different individuals experiencing specific mental health disorders respond differently to treatments. This means that there is a need for alternative approaches to treating mental health disorders, especially due to the large percentage of the population who suffer from mental health issues. Symptoms of poor mental health conditions such as anxiety include less efficient utilisation of oxygen, increased heart rate and increased blood pressure in the short term, and increased risk of coronary heart disease and stroke in the long term, making treatment extremely important (Olafiranye et al, 2011). The F-Effect can help treat these illnesses by using visual and audio stimulation to govern the emotions of the individual.

Depression, anxiety and chronic pain have all been shown to benefit from mindfulness meditation and using Fmri it was shown that meditation causes a permanent positive change in brain activity over time (Powell, 2018). The F-Effect works similarly to mindfulness meditation but to a much more extreme level, removing an individual from their environment and forcing them to focus on only the visual and audio cues presented by the F-Effect. This suggests that the F-Effect would have a much larger impact on brain activity than meditation alone. It was also shown that individuals who partook in mindfulness meditation over an eight-week period experienced noticeable thickening of the brain.

The benefits of F-Effect’s tailored audio stimulus

There is no known culture in human history in which music was not present. Music is extremely important in all societies, and humans feel strong emotions on different ends of the spectrum when presented with different music. F-Effect utilises the grip that music has over our emotions to dictate the way an individual feels during the experience. When presented with an endless list of health benefits shown from music treatment, it is hard to argue that the F-Effect has great potential to treat

 

a wide range of communities. Longwood Seminars in 2015 shed light on just how many health benefits there are from music treatment, with the following examples all being taken from this seminar.

 

There are many studies which show that listening to music can alleviate stress, causing a lower heart rate and lower blood pressure. These changes lead to better cardiac efficiency. Even when unconscious, music treatment led to lower heart rate and blood pressure, as well as lower blood adrenaline. Aerobic exercise is known for its many health benefits and listening to music causes an increase in blood flow similar to this.

Tailored music can also improve cognitive functioning. Individuals exposed to Mozart before a test showed a temporary IQ increase compared to those who did not. Stroke patients who listened to music showed much better verbal memory improvements compared to those who did not, and they also improved in controlling mental operations, an area in which non-music listeners did not improve at all. Listening to music can also help to retrieve stored memories and create new memories, which is especially helpful in the treatment of dementia.

Music has been shown to alleviate symptoms of depression over time, and also improve sleep quality in individuals with sleep disorders. Babies are able to gain weight faster and leave the unit earlier when exposed to background music in their unit.

Vulnerable people can benefit greatly from music. After heart bypass surgery, those in units with background music require less drugs for blood pressure treatment. Individuals undergoing painful procedures have been shown to require a lower dosage of anaesthetic when listening to music. Elderly people can also benefit greatly from listening to music. The elderly are much more prone to falling, however those trained to move in time to music showed much better balance over a six month period than those that were not trained. Also, music can be used to calm Alzheimer’s patients, therefore making them less confused and disagreeable.

An example not mentioned in this seminar is the recovery of alcoholics. A study found that sound waves at the frequency of 528 HZ can allow DNA to repair, showing that waves of this frequency can lower the impact of ethanol on cells and also enhance recovery in alcoholics (Babayi and Riazi, 2017). The F-Effect can utilise this by presenting alcoholics with sound waves of this frequency.

There are so many benefits shown for so many different groups of people from listening to music. Therefore, there is great potential in an innovation such as F-Effect to benefit such a large percentage of society through utilising different areas of music to induce health benefits in individuals.

F-Effect in treating autism

Autistic people use their senses differently to how we do. They are able to take in more sounds at a time and spot more continuity errors. Despite this, they are much more easily distracted due to their extra auditory capacity. Music can be used to focus autistic people (Remington, 2017), and the F-Effect can be used to focus the minds of autistic people by creating tailored audio which relaxes and focuses individuals.

The extra auditory capacity in autistic individuals likely comes from larger grey matter thickness in Heschl’s gyri, which is where auditory stimuli are first processed. Despite the extra auditory capacity being beneficial during some tasks, this large capacity can also lead to sensory overload (Remington

 

and Fairnie, 2017). The F-Effect can be used to focus attention and calm autistic individuals who experience this sensory overload.

Visual stimulation can also be used to manage autism, especially in children. Most children lean towards harsher colours such as red, but autistic children prefer cooler colours such as green, as

 

warmer colours increase their stress levels and can even cause them to experience physical pain. A 2017 article from Renk Etkisi shows that this is because children on the autistic spectrum experience colours much more intensely due to chemical imbalances and neural deficits in the rod and cone cells. Yellow is especially likely to cause sensory overloading in autistic people as two different types of cone cell are used in the perception of this colour, which can be challenging for the sensitive eyes of these individuals to manage (Grandgeorge and Masataki, 2016). F-Effect can use dull, soothing colour patterns in its visual stimulation, while removing the individual from any outside distractions , to calm autistic people, making it perfect for treating individuals on this spectrum who are prone to stress. Colours are not only beneficial for autistic people, but as bold colours have also been shown to enhance learning in introverted children, whereas hyperactive children react much better to calmer colours. F-Effect can tailor its visual stimulation to different individuals, allowing for it to be beneficial in productivity in the majority of children.

F-Effect can change genetic coding

If used over time, it is possible to use the F-Effect to manipulate DNA structure in individuals to lead to desirable genetic characteristics. The F-effect has already been shown to be able to govern emotions, which has major health benefits for individuals.

Heart coherence refers to a more orderly and harmonious heart rhythm pattern. Heart coherence fluctuates in an individual, being more coherent when positive emotions such as love are felt, and more erratic and disorganised when negative emotions such as frustration or stress are felt (Mccraty et al, 2003). The electromagnetic field of the heart can be felt throughout the body’s cells and can have physiologically relevant effects on a person standing up to five feet away. Experiencing positive emotions which lead to greater heart coherence increases the impact that the heart’s electromagnetic field can have on endogenous tissue and exogenous systems. Electrical signals from the heart also interact with the brain, so it is likely that heart energy can modulate interactions between the mind and the body, with an individual experiencing more positive emotions benefitting a greater amount from this.

Not only can heart coherence greatly impact cell behaviour in the short term, but it can also have long term benefits. A study by Rein and Rollin, 1993 showed that individuals with more coherent heart electrocardiogram (ECG) measurements were able to alter the structure of in vitro DNA samples according to their will, compared to individuals with less coherent ECG measurements who were unable to change the structure of the DNA. This suggests that emotions have a very large impact on DNA makeup, and as a person’s own DNA is endogenous it is likely even more responsive to the mind’s intentions. This experiment related to the denaturation and renaturation of DNA, which is biologically relevant in many important cell functions such as DNA replication and transcription. This shows the potential for F-Effect, as the ability for this innovation to govern emotions can have large impacts on important cellular functions.

 

 

It is likely that these changes in DNA structure experienced in this experiment were caused by the electromagnetic waves emitted from the heart. This can be supported by a study from Marvi et al, 2020 which shows that different types of waves, including EM waves, are able to alter the structure of DNA. These waves cause the DNA to vibrate with large amplitude oscillations. As the DNA shakes, the DNA strands move up and down, and with enough shakes a base in a nucleotide may form a hydrogen bond with a base on a different level. This causes disorganisation in the structure of DNA.

 

 

The restriction enzyme endonuclease can be used to remove remaining nucleotides. This can be used to disrupt cancerous cells, preventing them from the ability to biosynthesise.

There is clearly very large potential for the F-effect to impact cellular functions as well as govern DNA structure. Through the ability of F-effect to govern emotions in individuals, EM waves emitted from the heart under coherent conditions could alter the DNA structure in an individual to their desire. It is also clear that EM waves can disrupt cancerous cells, so there is potential for further studies on cancer patients to observe whether F-Effect can assist in cancer treatment. It is likely that strange phenomena such as the placebo effect, spontaneous remission in cancer and the positive effect of prayers can all be related to more coherent heart signals, suggesting that the governing of emotions which the F-effect can provide is invaluable to improving healing and health in individuals.

Conclusion

It is clear that there are many benefits to the audio and visual stimulation that the F-Effect can offer, and that most individuals in society can benefit from this innovation. Autistic individuals can be calmed and focused when exposed to this, individuals recovering from surgery can recover faster, those with mental health issues can see their symptoms subside, alcoholics can recover faster and if correctly used it even has the potential to improve IQ scores for a short period after usage. There is also potential for the F-Effect to be used to change DNA structure to enhance an individual’s genetic coding, as the improvement in heart coherence caused by the F-Effect can lead to DNA restructuring. Therefore, the F-Effect has vast potential to have a very positive impact on society, as so many

 

different communities can benefit from the fine-tuned audio and visual stimulation that the F-Effect can offer.
