Greetings Project Avalon, I'd like to extend an offer to anyone on the who is interested in holistic healing with light. There is no cost involved.
I've recently using a unique diagnostic and treatment program called Virtual Scanning that was developed in Russia. The system uses a really interesting color perceptual/memory test to construct a model of their autonomic nervous system. Through the use of some hi tech math it can actually register the "signal" of distress present in most of the major organ systems and provides a really detailed report about physiological and psychological processes at work. It also creates individually tailored light therapy programs which are installed on the client's computer and used on a daily basis at home.
I've learned how to do this remotely using Team Viewer and Skype and am able to do free evaluation/treatment up to May 10, 2015. I've done a few remote sessions with a smaller circle of Avalon members and the results are really spot on. Both people also notice a significant improvement in some area related to the therapy.
In addition to addressing regular health issue the program measure biological versus chronological age and offers an interesting "Age Reversal" and "Weight Optimization" treatment.
If anyone would like to try it out please PM me and we'll set up a time. You'll need the Team Viewer program which is a free download and Skype would be helpful as a way to audio chat about the results and treatment protocol questions. The actual evaluation takes about 20 minutes but getting all the details right with communications and practice can take quite a bit longer. I'd allow an hour just to be on the safe side.
Those interested in having an evaluation should down load Team Viewer 10 (https://www.teamviewer.com/en/index.aspx) and chose a Basic installation. Ignore prompts for "unattended" installation or "one time use". If you chose a personal noncommercial usage all the necessary features will be there.
Team Viewer will allow you to take the evaluation on my desktop using the diagnostic software that is installed on my computer. Then I will Skype you the set up files to install the treatment program on you computer. Team Viewer creates a one time only password for each session. Once we finish the session no one will have access to your computer.
Here are some links that provide further information.

This is interesting and hope to hear feedback. I am also interested in grounding pads (earthing mat) as a healing tool and wonder if you have any input on using these techniques together.
When I saw this post I immediately thought of this thread. http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?81672-Ischemic-stroke-in-young-adults-requesting-recovery-and-treatment-advice

Hi Fairy Friend, I haven't heard of Earthing Mats and didn't see it mentioned on the thread link you provided. I'm always interested in synergy though Virtual Scanning appears to use particular neurological responses that may be attenuated when other forms of energy from outside the body are brought into the mix. Could you send a link to Earthing Mats? Thank you.

there is one in particular I am trying to find I believe it is called "grounded" and is put out by mercola.com. I was wondering if the techniques might actually work together nicely.

© Christine Daniloff/MIT - Scientists use optogenetics to reactivate memories that could not otherwise be retrieved.
Memories that have been "lost" as a result of amnesia can be recalled by activating brain cells with light.
In a paper published today in the journal Science, researchers at MIT reveal that they were able to reactivate memories that could not otherwise be retrieved, using a technology known as optogenetics.
The finding answers a fiercely debated question in neuroscience as to the nature of amnesia, according to Susumu Tonegawa, the Picower Professor in MIT's Department of Biology and director of the RIKEN-MIT Center at the Picower Institute for Learning and Memory, who directed the research by lead authors Tomas Ryan, Dheeraj Roy, and Michelle Pignatelli.
Neuroscience researchers have for many years debated whether retrograde amnesia -- which follows traumatic injury, stress, or diseases such as Alzheimer's -- is caused by damage to specific brain cells, meaning a memory cannot be stored, or if access to that memory is somehow blocked, preventing its recall.
"The majority of researchers have favored the storage theory, but we have shown in this paper that this majority theory is probably wrong," Tonegawa says. "Amnesia is a problem of retrieval impairment."
Memory researchers have previously speculated that somewhere in the brain network is a population of neurons that are activated during the process of acquiring a memory, causing enduring physical or chemical changes.
If these groups of neurons are subsequently reactivated by a trigger such as a particular sight or smell, for example, the entire memory is recalled. These neurons are known as "memory engram cells."
Shedding light
In 2012 Tonegawa's group used optogenetics -- in which proteins are added to neurons to allow them to be activated with light -- to demonstrate for the first time that such a population of neurons does indeed exist in an area of the brain called the hippocampus.
However, until now no one has been able to show that these groups of neurons do undergo enduring chemical changes, in a process known as memory consolidation. One such change, known as "long-term potentiation" (LTP), involves the strengthening of synapses, the structures that allow groups of neurons to send signals to each other, as a result of learning and experience.
To find out if these chemical changes do indeed take place, the researchers first identified a group of engram cells in the hippocampus that, when activated using optogenetic tools, were able to express a memory.
When they then recorded the activity of this particular group of cells, they found that the synapses connecting them had been strengthened. "We were able to demonstrate for the first time that these specific cells -- a small group of cells in the hippocampus -- had undergone this augmentation of synaptic strength," Tonegawa says.
The researchers then attempted to discover what happens to memories without this consolidation process. By administering a compound called anisomycin, which blocks protein synthesis within neurons, immediately after mice had formed a new memory, the researchers were able to prevent the synapses from strengthening.
When they returned one day later and attempted to reactivate the memory using an emotional trigger, they could find no trace of it. "So even though the engram cells are there, without protein synthesis those cell synapses are not strengthened, and the memory is lost," Tonegawa says.
But startlingly, when the researchers then reactivated the protein synthesis-blocked engram cells using optogenetic tools, they found that the mice exhibited all the signs of recalling the memory in full.
"If you test memory recall with natural recall triggers in an anisomycin-treated animal, it will be amnesiac, you cannot induce memory recall," Tonegawa says. "But if you go directly to the putative engram-bearing cells and activate them with light, you can restore the memory, despite the fact that there has been no LTP."
"Groundbreaking paper"
Further studies carried out by Tonegawa's group demonstrated that memories are stored not in synapses strengthened by protein synthesis in individual engram cells, but in a circuit, or "pathway" of multiple groups of engram cells and the connections between them.
"We are proposing a new concept, in which there is an engram cell ensemble pathway, or circuit, for each memory," he says. "This circuit encompasses multiple brain areas and the engram cell ensembles in these areas are connected specifically for a particular memory."
The research dissociates the mechanisms used in memory storage from those of memory retrieval, according to Ryan. "The strengthening of engram synapses is crucial for the brain's ability to access or retrieve those specific memories, while the connectivity pathways between engram cells allows the encoding and storage of the memory information itself," he says.
Changes in synaptic strength and in spine properties have long been associated with learning and memory, according to Alcino Silva, director of the Integrative Center for Learning and Memory at the University of California at Los Angeles. "This groundbreaking paper suggests that these changes may not be as critical for memory as once thought, since under certain conditions, it seems to be possible to disrupt these changes and still preserve memory," he says. "Instead, it appears that these changes may be needed for memory retrieval, a mysterious process that has so far evaded neuroscientists."
