For all of the advances in our modern, industrialized society, we are still one of the sickest nations in the world! We are suffering from inadequate nutrition, increased exposure to toxins, and we're subject to unprecedented amounts of stress. There is no question that conventional medicine has its’ strengths, and can save lives. However, prevention and natural cures are not typically in the scope of their offerings. Nutritional science is bringing to our attention that what we eat has a profound influence on our state of health. At the same time, Energy Medicine is being recognized as the New Frontier of Healthcare.
What does Energy Wellness mean? First, that natural energies in our environment are crucial to our physiological functioning, and can be used to facilitate health and healing. Secondly, the energy fields in and around our bodies are essential to our achieving and maintaining wellness. Why?
It is understood that we are energetic beings, and are affected at a cellular level by natural energies found in our environment. Many of these energies have been extensively researched in biology, chemistry, and physics, and are known to be pre-conditions for all forms of life. Eastern medicine has known for some time that we can harness and use these energies to positively affect our health and well- being. Western medicine is beginning to embrace these approaches in such therapies as acupuncture, healing touch, homeopathy, and magnetic therapy for bone healing and diabetic neuropathy. The testimonies of millions of people around the world, and continuing research studies are confirming the efficacy of energy technologies and practices.
"Energy medicine is the future of all medicine. We're beginning now to understand things that we know in our hearts are true but we could never measure. As we get better at understanding how little we know about the body, we begin to realize that the next big frontier in medicine is energy medicine. It's not the mechanistic part of the joints moving. It's not the chemistry of our body - it's understanding for the first time how energy influences how we feel."
