Do our intentions affect the physical world, including health? Can science or religion provide an answer to this question? This book answers these questions with an emphatic yes. In volume two of the series, Steve Tonsager introduces the world of whisperology, a place in which matters of science and spirit are no longer at odds with each other. Tonsager believes that his work furnishes one more example of the power of intention to create change and positively influence health. He uses the metaphor of a whisper to bring the nonphysical and physical domains together in a manner that celebrates the power and efficacy of intention. Tonsager introduces Intention Based Field Resonance Testing to describe his intentions, methodologies, and findings in the use of bioresonance testing. The book offers exercises and encouragement to anyone who believes that the cultivation of intention can have a significant impact personally and professionally.
