Your Body Is In Your Mind: Energy Healing With Chance Garton (Mirrored from Apocatastasis Institute)
I joined John Coleman of the Apocatastasis Institute to talk about biofield tuning, and why I believe the body lives in the mind and not the other way around.

Core themes
Memory, Mind, and the Human Biofield
Chance defined biofield tuning as the centropic process of bringing lost life force back into the body. He described the human biofield as a plasma around the body that holds the record of life experience, and said that neuroscience had never found memory stored in the brain, citing maze experiments on rats. From that, Chance concluded that the body was in the mind rather than the mind in the body. He said frozen or stuck fragments of the field limited the energy a person could reach, and that he held all injury and disease to be psychosomatic.
Cognitive Dissonance and Bodily Pain
The host asked about cognitive dissonance, and Chance said that in his experience it was the chief cause, if not the only cause, of pain and distortion in the body. He described it as holding two beliefs that were directly at odds yet fully believed. Chance said that recurring or chronic issues often turned out to involve such a clash, and that beliefs and expectations returned to people as repeating patterns in life. He added that these patterns were hard to see because they sat too close, like a nose, and that he was finding this kind of clash more often as his pattern recognition improved.
Simple Tools for Raising Your Energy
Chance recommended a weighted tuning fork, which he called the sonic slider, applied to the matching reflexology spot on the foot, and said he had used it for chest constriction and head and sinus discomfort. The host raised earthing, and Chance agreed that grounding mattered, since he saw the body as an electrical system. He also listed rest, deep breathing, fresh whole foods, spring water, and consciously receiving love and appreciation. He urged listeners to ask whether an activity or person felt like a drain or a gain, and to favor the gains.
Chance and John Question Official Narratives
Early in the talk Chance described what he called forged ancient manuscripts, naming the papal secretary Poggio Bracciolini and a bounty paid for old texts, while the host recalled museum curators who could not trace their documents. The host later argued that modernity broke reality into artificial parts and that much science relied on models. Chance relayed claims from Mark Gober's book that no virus had been isolated or shown to cause illness, and described worldview warfare as the real struggle. These were their views and were not independently verified.
How Remote Biofield Sessions Worked
The host asked how tuning worked over Zoom, and Chance explained that he used a table and a surrogate body built from crystals and candles matched in color and symbolism to the energy centers. He said he believed remote work was more effective for him, and that a loud music festival, where he could not hear the forks, convinced him distance was no obstacle. Chance said he made no promises or guarantees, described the work as collaborative pattern recognition with the client, and said nearly half of his sessions were repeat clients.
Quotes
“When you flip this paradigm, you realize that your mind is not in your body, your body is in your mind. So we're all the way back to the old Hermetic principle of mentalism.”
“What's striking me is that this is a very pre-modern, ancient or medieval way of understanding reality, as opposed to modernity, which has broken everything up into the clock, and everything's an hour, or the periodic table of elements. Everything is broken up artificially into these pure elements.”
“What does us harm is assuming things are true that are not true. So I'm a big fan of the apophatic method of gnosis, which is knowing a thing by knowing what it's not.”
“Whenever there are two minds present in an environment, the more coherent mind entrains the dissonant mind, and that applies to everything physical too. All of this physical stuff is made of the same vibrating mental energy, or God's imagination, as everything else.”
“Worldview healing and self-view healing are actually kind of one and the same, and the way they are is that you have to reverse the belief that life is happening to you and realize you are happening to life.”
“Whatever is dissonant or not coherent or not harmonious, we have to spend a certain amount of our life force energy to filter it out, and the more things that we're filtering out, the more of a hit on our boundaries or our shields.”
“How do you have a little child who is given by their adults these beautiful sentiments on the columns, and then how does that baby turn into the washed out middle-aged, white knuckling it through life parent in the parking lot at the pickup?”
“How does this work when you're doing this at a distance with Zoom? Are you just pretending you have like a table there and just pretending there's a body there?”
Kyle and Serena Denton are community herbalists creating wild-crafted and organic plant medicines out of Milwaukee since 2015. I have used their teas and tinctures on an almost daily basis for years now. Kyle is a great friend of InnerVerse and has appeared on the channel more times than I can count. These products work, not in the allopathic "pharma-medicine" way, but in a terrain-support, consciousness bolstering plant-teacher sort of way.
