I tested a "spiritual technology" on my genes and discovered a deception detector [Book Review of David R. Hawkins’s "Power vs. Force"]

David R. Hawkins’s Power vs. Force is one of those books that makes you pause, tilt your head, and think: Did I just stumble across a secret manual for decoding reality? Or is this spiritual snake oil with footnotes?Hawkins claims to have discovered a way to objectively distinguish truth from falsehood using nothing more than the body’s response to statements. The tool is Applied Kinesiology, a technique where a subject’s muscle strength is tested while holding a thought, statement, or stimulus in mind. If the statement is true, the muscle “goes strong.” If it is false, the muscle “goes weak.”I conceived of an N of 1 experiment to test the bold claim that Applied Kinesiology makes: Since I have my whole genome sequenced, I can muscle test specific statements about my DNA and then check them against the raw report. If my body can consistently verify the truth or falsity of genetic facts, I can verify by checking my own genes, which would be a powerful confirmation of Hawkins’s central claim. The results were surprising...1:25 Applied Kinesiology "Truth-Testing"4:01 The Essential Message5:53 The Testing Technique9:27 The Map of Consciousness15:23 Philosophical takeaways20:38 Hawkins’s Biases24:12 Dense Language, Big Ideas27:07 Music vs Growth Mindset30:09 My Truth-Testing Experiments39:13 Skepticism is Well-WarrantedRead 📑 Everything mentioned herehttps://www.limitlessmindset.com/Power-vs-ForceOrder 🛒 Bookhttps://amzn.to/3VqhPdDConfused?Clarity is a confidential VOIP call away - book an illuminating and edifying 45-minute Biohacking/Lifehacking consultation with mehttps://www.limitlessmindset.com/breakthrough-consultationJoin the Limitless Mindset Newsletterhttps://www.limitlessmindset.com/newsletterSupport My WorkLimitless Mindset Storehttps://store.limitlessmindset.com/Limitless Mindset Substack ($7/monthly)https://jonathanroseland.substack.com/My bookshttps://www.limitlessmindset.com/jr-booksDonate cryptocurrencyhttps://www.limitlessmindset.com/support#cryptocurrencyConnect with Jonathanon Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/limitlessmindseton Twitterhttp://twitter.com/jroselandon Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/roselandjonathan/on Mindshttps://www.minds.com/jroselandon Odyseehttps://odysee.com/$/invite/@jroseland:fon Telegramhttps://t.me/limitlessjrI'm not a doctor, medical professional, or trained therapist. I'm a researcher and pragmatic biohacking practitioner exercising free speech to share evidence as I find it.
