Quantum Biofield Energy Therapy for Psychological and Mental Health Problems

Life is very complex, nonlinear, and dynamic. Each life form has a biofield that controls the integrity of all organisms. Overall, health is an experience of harmony between our physical body, mind, and connection to society. Psychological and mental health are critical components of health. The mind-body-spirit is interlinked with each other that affects a person’s psychological, mental, and physical health. When symptoms affect cognitive thoughts, affective emotions, and physical behaviors, the consequences can be impairment of healthy human functioning and psychological distress. To cope with psychological and mental health problems, biofield energy therapies can provide an alternative therapy to treat and minimize the signs and symptoms of psychological and mental illness such as anxiety, depression, mood disorders, mental distress, emotional disorders, etc. The biofield energy treatments include Reiki, therapeutic touch, healing touch, blessing, prayer, Trivedi Effect®, external Qigong, etc. This holistic therapy is an effective, side-effect-free, and less expensive treatment. Biofield therapists/practitioners do local and nonlocal interventions to treat their clients’ problems. The mechanism of action of biofield energy therapy remains unknown. Based on quantum physics, authors assume and hypothesize that the effectiveness of biofield energy therapy occurs due to quantum entanglement through spiritual healing. This chapter focuses on the theory of body-mind-consciousness, human biofield energy, the current concept of quantum aspects of biofield energy therapy, and its effectiveness in dealing with psychological and mental health problems.
