Imagine your body constantly emitting light—and this is not just poetic imagery. Scientific discoveries confirm that human cells release faint light particles known as biophotons, and this light changes depending on your emotional and mental state.
Light in Every Cell
Biophotons are subtle light particles emitted by the cells of living beings, including humans. This light is invisible to the naked eye, but sensitive instruments can detect it.
What’s especially fascinating is that the intensity and quality of this emitted light shifts when we’re in a state of inner peace, meditation, or love. In these moments, our bodies literally glow brighter.
Stress “Turns Off” Your Light
When we’re stressed, anxious, or angry, the body emits fewer biophotons. This suggests that negative emotional states quite literally dim your inner light.
On the other hand, deep gratitude, stillness, and presence “switch on the light” within us, making us biologically and energetically brighter.
What This Means for Spiritual Growth
Ancient traditions have always spoken of the “light within you.” Now, science confirms it’s not just a metaphor. Your inner state directly shapes your body’s luminous field.
