Babies Are the Best Yoga Teachers!
Gurudev reminds us: they live fully in the present moment — not in the past, not rushing to the future.

In every breath, they show us: Life is here, now.

These enlightened yogis in our homes radiate pure awareness.

Through the SKY Breath Meditation Course (AOL1) — the gateway to AOL2 — we awaken to the breath and to the present moment.

Why? Because awareness of each breath — in and out — anchors us here, now. We always breathe in the present.

Join us here: aolf.co/AllFTLAOLCourses (AOL1)

Through the Silent Retreat (AOL2), we immerse in deep stillness, resting in the joy of the Self.

Labor Day Weekend — Aug 29 to Sept 1, 2025

Quantum Inner Light: Howard U. and EPFL Reveal Brain’s Superradiant Secrets

🧬✨ Howard U. and EPFL Reveal Brain’s Inner Light Through Tryptophan Superradiance 🧬✨

Did you know your brain might be emitting light—on purpose?
In a landmark collaboration between Howard University’s Quantum Biology Laboratory and EPFL (École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne) in Switzerland, researchers have discovered superradiant behavior in tryptophan molecules—revealing that our brain’s proteins can absorb and re-emit UV light in perfect quantum coherence within trillionths of a second.

🧬 At room temperature. In living systems.

This was once thought impossible.

🧬 These light bursts may:
• Protect the brain from oxidative stress
• Prevent degeneration
• Act as a biological model for quantum information processing

🔗 Read the full piece here: https://tr.ee/rV0463

As a physician, spiritual teacher, holistic integrative coach and Howard alumna, I see this as more than a physics and neurobiological discovery—

It’s a bridge between science and soul, between neurobiology and spiritual knowing.

✨ What if what mystics have called inner light is not metaphor—but measurable?

What if meditation aligns us with this biological superradiance?

✨ Note on Interpretation

The scientific findings summarized in this document are based on published research from Howard University’s Quantum Biology Laboratory and École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne.

The spiritual reflections and interpretations shared here—regarding inner light, coherence, and meditation—are my own.
They are not claims made by the scientists or research institutions referenced but are offered as part of my integrative perspective on healing, consciousness, and the mind–body connection.

🧬 Howard University’s Quantum Biology Laboratory: Key Findings on Tryptophan Superradiance

1. Discovery of Superradiance in Tryptophan Networks
HU QBL identified that organized networks of tryptophan molecules within biological structures can exhibit superradiance, a quantum phenomenon where molecules emit light collectively and more intensely than individually. This was notably observed in structures like microtubules and amyloid fibrils

2. Implications for Neurodegenerative Diseases
These tryptophan networks can absorb harmful ultraviolet (UV) light and re-emit it at safer energy levels, suggesting a potential photoprotective mechanism. This could play a role in protecting neurons from oxidative stress associated with conditions like Alzheimer’s disease

3. Potential for Quantum Information Processing
The rapid, coherent energy transfer observed in these networks indicates that biological systems might utilize quantum effects for information processing, operating at speeds much faster than traditional biochemical pathways
4. Broader Biological Significance

The presence of superradiant behavior in various cellular structures suggests that quantum coherence could be a widespread feature in biology, potentially influencing processes from cellular communication to overall organismal function

🔬 What Howard University’s Scientific Findings Mean in Plain Language:

1. The Brain May Be Emitting Light—On Purpose
Howard scientists discovered that tryptophan molecules—found inside certain brain structures like microtubules and amyloid fibrils—can emit light together in perfect harmony.
This is called superradiance, a rare quantum behavior where molecules coordinate their energy emission like a symphony, not as individuals.

🟣 What this means:
Your brain may be using light—not just electricity or chemistry—as a fast, efficient way to communicate or protect itself.

2. A Built-In Light Shield Against Damage
These tryptophan networks also absorb harmful UV light and then release it safely at lower energy.
This suggests a natural self-protective mechanism—a kind of biological sunscreen for your neurons.

🟣 What this means:
The brain might be defending itself from damage (like oxidative stress or inflammation) by using these light-based processes—especially relevant in diseases like Alzheimer’s.

3. Quantum Processing May Be Happening in Us
The speed and coherence of this energy transfer hint that quantum information processing—long thought impossible in warm, living tissue—might actually happen in our bodies.

🟣 What this means:
Your brain may process information faster and more subtly than we’ve ever imagined—possibly using quantum principles like entanglement, coherence, or resonance.

4. This May Be Happening Throughout the Body
Howard’s findings weren’t limited to the brain. These superradiant tryptophan networks were found in multiple cellular structures—meaning this light-based harmony may be a universal design principle in biology.

🟣 What this means:
Your whole body—not just your brain—may be built to transmit, absorb, and harmonize light as part of its natural intelligence.
Let’s journey from movement to stillness, from sound to silence, and from scattered attention to radiant presence.
