I agree there are more subtle energies associated with your body but I don't believe there is no correlation between our EM fields and the more
subtle energy fields. The EM field itself is simply a more subtle part of our body than our physical flesh and bones.
Already scientists at Stanford are looking to discover (be able to build instruments that can quantify) the energies that precede electrical
"decisions" in the brain, which arise at least partially from "random" quantum effects that bias individual neuron firings.

Care to explain?
Well this is actually a hard question to answer because the language itself is very deceiving in how simple it is so I can only offer a long
explanation for the technical stuff...
But basically the answer is the same way/reason why the EM field breaks down when you turn a TV or other electrical appliance off. All these
appliances have EM fields around them when they're running, even your computer right now, that extends beyond its physical location and can even
interact with your own body's EM field. But when an open circuit is introduced somewhere along the line or a power source fails, the field
attenuates, the same way hot water gets cold in a cold environment or cold water gets warm in a hot environment, the environment is always seeking
equilibrium so differences (either in temperature or electrical charge) are eventually evened out through natural processes. The mechanics of those
processes aren't really known down to the smallest levels for the same reason we still don't fully understand quantum mechanics. We just don't
understand that stuff scientifically yet.
Now the more technical reality of your EM body...
The EM field of your body is a complex
group of fields that are in some ways independent of one another and in other ways all inter-related
with each other. For example your brain has its own EM signals than your heart most of the time, your nerves and spinal column all have different
kinds of electrical activity associated with them, and then if you want to get really technical each cell has its own charges within itself, and even
every atom has an electrical field. Every time there is an electrical current there is a magnetic field.
I am a firm mystic, and simultaneously a firm scientist, and I believe science here is pointing to a very revealing and awe-inspiring vision for your
mystical side to consider, the way reality (ie just EM energy in your body) is working on so many levels simultaneously that all influence each other
but are also all different from one another.
The EM activity of your brain is mostly guided by your conscious thoughts and actions but different general frequencies are associated with different
states of mind (awake, concentrating, tired, etc.). It fires whenever thoughts occur, and for automatic body communications that are subconscious and
you personally miss out on.
The heart generates strong magnetic pulses, FAR stronger than your brain's EM field but not nearly as high-frequency, ie not as much "data" in the
signal as from your brain, but just sharp pulses that are very powerful. When you approach people it's been proven that your hearts' EM fields
interfere with one another. You notice that when you get within a foot or two of someone, you can get a much better idea of what they're feeling,
probably also because you can see miniature muscle movements more easily and hear breathing more easily as well, which are also clues.
Also your cells have EM fields that appear "static," like a constant negative charge inside the cells and a constant positive charge in the
surrounding environment inside the body. This is to attract particles to the cell, whether it's food or whatever the case may be, it's turned into
an "ion" that is polarized against the cell and drawn to it. A lot of cell biology works off of charges like this, or even smaller electrical
activity between protein bonding on a molecular/atom level inside the different parts of individual cells.
All of these fields surround each other and influence each other because they occupy the same physical space.
When you clear your mind in meditation, and just stay attentive but blank-minded, not "self-talk" thoughts and things, your mind naturally
synchronizes with your heart beat because the same space inside your head is noticeably energized by your heartbeat pulse compared to the relative
quiet from your lack of active thinking. Remember the heartbeat pulse itself is a lot stronger than your brain's EM radiation to begin with. This
synchronized state of activity between heart and mind has been shown to have medical benefits aside from any spiritual ones. There is a website
called "HeartMath" that you can search for on Google for more information on all of this.
