Through EEG measurements, the authors tried to measure relaxation
effects when persons apply a cosmetic for skin care to their face. Experiments
were done from July to August 2015. The experimental sample for the facial
application was an essence which has a high concentration of colloidal
platinum (200ppm; average diameter, 10nm), and the control sample was an
essence without colloidal platinum. Participants were categorized into two
groups. Group A consisted of 8 women (average age, 43.1y) who had previously
used cosmetics containing platinum and Group B consisted of 8 women (average
age, 40.6y) who had not used such cosmetics. The authors measured
participants' EEG on a single-blind condition before and after the
participants applied samples (0.45g) to their faces, and compared the averaged
power of the alpha wave. Before applying the samples, a stress task was given
to each participant. For application of the control sample, the EEG spectrum
(alpha waves) of both Groups A and B recovered to the initial level. For
application of the experimental sample, the EEG spectrum of Group B recovered
to the initial level, but that of Group A increased to 0.56dB. The essence
which contained colloidal platinum provided an additional relaxation effect
caused by the colloidal platinum, not only the relaxation effects caused by
the behavior of applying the essence and the base components of the essence.
However, more studies are needed to reveal the details of relaxation
mechanisms caused by the colloidal platinum.

- Abstract:
- The International Society of Life Information Science (ISLIS) is commemorating the 10th Anniversary of the camp format meetings and holding the 42nd Symposium on Life Information Science with the main theme “Healing and Wonderful Phenomena” on August 26-29, 2016 at “Kasuga Forest”, Kasuga Hot Spring, Saku-City, Nagano, Japan. Twenty-one years of activities of the ISLIS and the promotion of “Human Potential Science” are reviewed since the Society’s Foundation in 1995. ISLIS has sought and continues to seek the realization of the paradigm shift from material-oriented science and technology to a new paradigm including the consciousness, spirit and mind through research based on empirical and positive scientific methodologies, and consequently, to promote the development of health, social welfare, and education, as well as social and personal peace of mind, and to contribute to the making of a peaceful world, at one with nature. Since the foundation of ISLIS, 42 Life Information Science Symposia have been held and issues of the International Society of Life Information Science (Journal of ISLIS) have been published regularly twice a year. ISLIS held the “International Conference on Human Potential Science International Forum” in Chiba, Japan in 2002, the “International Conference on Mind Body Science” in Seoul, Korea in 2004 and the “7th Psi Meeting” in Curitiba, Brazil in August 2011 co-sponsored with the Facludades Integradas ‘Espirita’. ISLIS published the book Human Potential Science in 2004. ISLIS has a worldwide presence with 11 International Information Centers and about 230 members in 15 countries. The 43th Symposium will be held on March 18-19, 2017 at Ohmori Medical Center, Toho University, Tokyo, Japan.

- Abstract:
- The first author conducted a 90-minute lecture with students at a private university. The lecture entitled “Visualization Therapy Practice for Finding the Answers Within” covered the theory and practice of the coherence meditation technique developed by the HeartMath Institute in California to synchronize the heart and brain and capture insights from the subconscious mind. The present paper reports on the method and contents of the lecture and students’ response to the class. The written survey responses of 145 students were subjected to content analysis and text mining. The results demonstrated positive acceptance of the meditation technique and increased interest in the particular therapeutic approach and psychology in general among students.

Characteristics of Japanese Near-death Experience:
Text Mining Analysis of Narratives
- Fuko MIURA and Takehiko ITO
- Abstract:
- Near-death experiences, which refer to the consciousness of energy isolated from the body, and experienced by people who have recovered from cardiac arrest, have not been scientifically proved. However, there are several reports about such experiences. It is assumed that certain characteristics pertain to the near-death experience, after taking into account human universality and cultural differences. The world of the near-death experience, based on narratives by people with experience thereof, is investigated in this study. Analyzed text included narratives extracted from the book “Testimonies: Near-death experience (Tachinaba, 2001).” Narratives of near-death experiences were converted into text using text mining software, Text Mining Studio. Based on the results of word frequency and correspondence analysis, the characteristics of Japanese experiences were compared with those of Western experiences. A river and flowers emerged as frequently used descriptions in the narratives of Japanese near-death experiences. Twelve of the 22 people (more than half) applied both words to their description of the near-death experience. The depiction of a river, cited by many of the Japanese study subjects, was discussed in contrast to the depiction of a tunnel and light, as portrayed in the Western near-death experience. Commonalities in the experiences of Japanese and Western people were also noted.

- Abstract:
-
The present study gives the results of a questionnaire survey for Japanese university students of the Digital Native Generation on their anomalous (paranormal) experiences and trust for other persons. The survey data from 871 respondents (330 males, 541 females; including 285 respondents of the author's previous survey) were used. Respondents were divided into three groups: Group A (300 female students), women at an all-women’s university; Group B (241 female students), women at a co-educational university; and Group C (330 male students), men at the same co-educational university as Group B. Analysis showed there were differences among groups. Differences of response rates were within 10 points for anomalous experiences, while the differences were 10 or 24 points for trust for other persons. Scheffe's multiple comparison showed there was no significant difference among groups for the following questionnaire items: one item of trust, déjà vu, sleep paralysis, presentiment, signs of ghosts, 6th sense belief, and other experiences. The replies to these items were considered as relatively stable. Additionally, there were weak positive correlations and significant differences among telepathy, clairvoyance, and out-of-body experience.

Clinical Improvement in Cancer
Patients through Integrative Medicine Mainly Low - Molecular Fucoidan
- Abstract:
-
Cancer therapy in integrative medicine combined with the stellate ganglion
block, sugar restricted diet, Chinese herbal medicine and qigong augmented by
low-molecular fucoidan supplementation gave rise to the favorably improved
clinical courses. I report the results of a case of 80-year-old male patient
with over 5 years of history with stage IV hepatocellular carcinoma; a case of
66-year-old female patient with stage IV lung cancer who had upper lobectomy
of the right lung 4 years ago even though the following treatments with oral
molecular targeted and anti-cancer drugs resulted in the level two
plus-pleural effusion; a case of 60-year-old female patient with less than 5
year history bearing stage IIA breast cancer who clearly reduced the level of
an apoptotic marker of anti-p53 antibody, and report the changes of autonomic
nerve function adjustability, vascular age and ketone body levels through
integrative medical treatment together with 3 days fasting;
and a case of 73-year-old male patient with stage III
recurrent pancreatic cancer was
monitored for the levels of serotonin, adiponectin and ketone bogy.
Messages
suggested by the clinical courses experienced in my clinic are delivered to
propose in considering the
4present protocol as a better future
alternative clinical approach.

- Abstract:
-
Our purpose is to study scientifically and to apply the so called pyramid
effect. In 2013, we proved with very high statistical accuracy a meditator’s
non-contact effect on bio-sensors (cucumber
slices) placed on the pyramidal
structure (PS) peak by strict experiments and an analysis method. In 2015, the
non-contact effect was detected over an extended period of time (10 plus days)
after the meditation. Thus we proved the existence of a new phenomenon "an
anomalous non-contact effect with a delay associated with a pyramidal
structure" from this result. In 2016, we identified the necessary
conditions for the anomalous phenomenon discovered with a pyramidal structure.
From the result of a new verification experiment in which the experimental
conditions for the meditator and the PS were varied, it was verified that the
non-contact effect was not detected in the meditation period regardless of the
existence or non-existence of the meditator and the existence or non-existence
of the PS. Furthermore, we showed that the condition in which the meditator is
in the pyramidal structure during the meditation period is the only condition
for the non-contact effect to be detected after the meditation period. These
research results further solidified the hypothesis we proposed in 2015 about
the origin of the non-contact effect associated with a pyramidal structure.

Evolution of Life and the Autonomic Nervous System Function
-
Institute for Living Body Measurements, International Research Institute
- Abstract:
- All living things on the earth control their own lives and activities in accordance with the environment of the earth which revolves around the sun and with the sun itself. The autonomic nervous system was born and has evolved as an autonomous and integrated control mechanism in creatures. It is said that a human fetus traces the entire process of the evolution of human life in its mother’s womb. Some reports say that the autonomic nervous system balance is probably immature in preterm infants. And it can be considered that a subtle sense such as qi or extremely delicate stimulation to the skin surface by some kind of healings drives reaction of the autonomic nervous system faster than a projection to the sensory area of the brain from the somatosensory receptors. In this report, EEGs and the autonomic nervous system balance are discussed by comparing data from children with a developmental disorder to data from children of a standard development group while performing some tasks. And also the autonomic nervous activity on the skin is considered using data obtained with various taping methods. Then, the functions of the autonomic nerves in the life system are discussed with consideration of the brain as the place for the function of mental activity and the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves as the place for the mutual regulation of visceral organs.
