The original research was conducted by nurses Lauren Khalifeh, RN and Linda Flar Lund, RN at St. Joseph’s Regional Medical Center in Paterson, New Jersey.

This peer-recognized achievement represents a significant milestone for the scientific validation of Pranic Healing within the mainstream medical community.

Nurses Lauren Khalifeh, RN and Linda Flar Lund, RN presented their research from St. Joseph’s Regional Medical Center’s geriatric emergency department in Paterson, New Jersey.

The study involved 48 patients in the geriatric ED presenting with acute and chronic pain. A control group received pain medications only, while the experimental group received pain medications combined with Pranic Healing.

Results demonstrated that Pranic Healing was significantly effective in reducing pain when used as a complement to standard pain management protocols.

The study was featured on NBC Nightly News, highlighting how St. Joseph’s ED staff were using Pranic Healing as an alternative approach to help reduce dependence on opioid painkillers.

The research was presented by Nichole Perez, MD at the AIHM conference, earning the top honor for poster presentations.

The study was selected for publication in Integrative Medicine: A Clinician’s Journal, a peer-reviewed medical publication focused on evidence-based integrative health practices.

This recognition further validates the health benefits of Meditation on Twin Hearts, one of the core meditation practices developed by GrandMaster Choa Kok Sui.
