Healing by Proximity: What an Egg Experiment Can Teach Us About Human Coherence
Nov 07, 2025What if healing didn’t always require effort?
What if it could happen just by being near someone whose system was regulated, loving, and coherent?
That’s exactly what New Zealand water researcher Veda Austin suggests in her groundbreaking study, shared in Chapter 19 of her book The Living Language of Water — and it mirrors exactly what we experience in The Boom Room every single day.
The Egg Experiment That Changed Everything
In her study, Veda froze the albumen (egg white) of both caged hen eggs and organic free-range eggs, photographing the crystallographic structures that formed.
The difference was astonishing.
- Free-range eggs displayed six distinct, beautiful, complex patterns.
- Caged eggs had fractured, chaotic, or nearly absent structures.
So far, this wasn’t surprising — one system had more life force, integrity, and health than the other. But then came the experiment that changed everything. Veda placed a single organic egg at the centre of a circle of caged eggs overnight.
No contact. No cracking. No exchange of fluids.
Just proximity.
And the next morning?
The caged eggs had transformed. Their internal crystalline structure became more ordered, more beautiful — more alive. Just by being near the coherent egg.

So… What Does This Mean?
If albumen — 90% water — can receive information and patterning from a coherent system just by being nearby…
What do you think happens when a human being steps into a field of heart-brain coherence?
Welcome to The Boom Room
We’ve been holding daily Boom Room sessions at The Inner Harmony Movement for over 18 months now. Every single day, our community comes together online — eyes closed, hearts open, breathing into coherence. Some have been practicing for over a year. They’ve built emotional regulation, energetic steadiness, and a calm baseline through daily commitment. They are, in many ways, the “organic eggs.”
Then come the new Boomies.
Maybe they feel scattered, overstimulated, overwhelmed. Their nervous systems are still learning. They’re carrying a lifetime of static and stress in their field.
They are the “caged eggs.”
And yet…
Within days — sometimes hours — something begins to shift.
The overwhelm eases.
The sleep deepens.
The tears soften.
The kids calm down.
The miracles begin.
Why? Because healing happens by proximity.
Just like the eggs.
Coherence Is Contagious
In HeartMath science, we know this to be true: The heart's electromagnetic field extends several feet beyond the body — and is strong enough to influence others. When one heart is regulated and coherent, it sends out a signal — an invisible invitation — to every other heart in the room: “It’s safe here. You can regulate now.”
This is the power of collective practice.
This is why we don’t just meditate alone.
This is why we breathe together.
In the Boom Room, coherence isn’t just personal — it’s transpersonal.
It Ripples Through Families
We’ve seen it again and again:
- One parent starts regulating their nervous system…
→ The kids stop melting down at bedtime. - One person commits to daily coherence…
→ The partner softens, arguments ease, connection returns. - One woman breathes peace into her morning…
→ Her entire home becomes a sanctuary.
You don’t have to teach it.
You don’t have to explain it.
You just have to become it.
Just like the free-range egg.
You Are the Medicine
This is the deeper truth that Veda’s study reflects back to us:
You don’t heal others by trying to fix them.
You heal others by becoming coherent yourself.
By choosing stillness.
By regulating your breath.
By opening your heart.
By returning to the frequency of love.
You become a transmitter of healing.
You change the field — first your own, then the room, then the family, then the world.
Final Reflection
We often underestimate the power of our presence.
But what if just by being in the room — calm, coherent, connected—you’re already transforming the people you love? What if healing doesn’t need to be dramatic? What if it starts with one quiet breath?
In The Boom Room, we’re not just showing up for ourselves. We’re becoming the coherent centre of our homes, our families, our communities.
Just like the egg.
Just like the field.
Just by being here.
