Why Energy Medicine?
America spends over 1.3 Trillion Dollars on health care a year but are only placed 37th in world healthcare tables. According to study carried out by the U.S government over a 10 year period over 300,000 deaths a year in the U.S alone result from the adverse reactions to prescription drugs. These are dismaying statistics, especially from a healing profession that has arrogantly dismissed three thousand years of effective Eastern medicine as unscientific, even though it is based on a deeper understanding of the universe. For thousands of years long before western scientists discovered the laws of quantum physics, Asians have honoured energy as the principle factor contributing to health and wellbeing.
Doctors - the pharmaceutical patsies
It would be easy to bash doctors who prescribe massive quantities of drugs that contribute to the health professions lethality. Medical doctors are caught between an intellectual rock and a corporate hard place; they are pawns in the huge medical industrial complex. Their healing abilities are hobbled by an archaic medical education founded on a Newtonian, matter only universe. Unfortunately that Philosophy went out of vogue seventy-five years ago, when physics officially adopted quantum mechanics and recognised the universe is actually made out of energy. In their postgraduate years, those same doctors receive their continuing education about pharmaceutical products from drug reps, the errand boys of the corporate health care industry. Essentially these non-professionals, whose primary goal is to sell product, provide doctors with "information" about the efficiency of new drugs. Drug companies freely offer this "education" so they can persuade doctors to "push" their products. It is evident that the massive quantities of drugs prescribed in the west violate the Hippocratic Oath taken by all doctors to "First do no harm." We need to step back and incorporate the discoveries of quantum physics into biomedicine so that we can create a new, safer system of medicine that is attuned to the laws of nature.
Physics and medicine
The physical sciences have already embraced quantum physics with sensational results. But while quantum physics has made possible diagnostic miracles such as the CAT, PET and MRI scans, machines which measure the body's energy fields, the list of advances in biomedical treatment is very short. In fact it is a list yet to be started. Hundreds upon hundreds of scientific studies over the last fifty years have consistently revealed that "Invisible forces." Of the electromagnetic spectrum profoundly impact every facet of biological regulation.
Buying the Pharm.
The major reason why energy research has all but been ignored comes down to money. The trillion Dollar pharmaceutical industry puts its research money into the search for the magic bullet in the form of chemicals because pills mean money. If energy healing could be put into a pill, drug manufacturers would get interested quickly. Meanwhile the media essentially avoids the issue of death by medicine by directing our attention to the dangers of illicit drugs. They admonish us that by using drugs to escape life's problems is not the way to resolve ones issues. Funny.. You could use that exact same statement to describe the overuse of prescription drugs. Are they dangerous? Ask the millions worldwide that died last year. Using prescription drugs to silence the body's symptoms enables us to ignore personal involvement we may have as to the onset of these symptoms. The over use of prescription drugs provide a holiday from personal responsibility. Metaphorically, it is comparable with having a flashing light on your cars dashboard. Upon taking the car to our local mechanic he simply removes the troublesome bulb - the light ceases to be an irritation surely the problem is now fixed? No? so why does this course of action seem reasonable in the case of taking medication to alleviate symptoms. At least removing the bulb is just a effective way of ignoring the problem - it's not going to cause the inescapable side effects that come with all prescription drugs. Just read those labels you have been conveniently ignoring.
Why do we get ill?
Even the medical professions agree that the vast majority of illness starts in the head through stress, anxiety or negative belief patterns and behaviours. Chemicals move through the body at 1cm per second, energy moves at the speed of light 186,000 miles per second. Next time you have a negative emotion; gauge how long it takes for that piece of information to travel from the brain to be experienced somewhere in your body. Is this a chemical response or an energetic one taking place? Your thoughts are energy at work. So logically, if most illness is being caused by your thoughts and emotions, which form of intervention makes the most logical sense to use? An energetic or a chemical solution? We are in the midst of a slow shift in medicine, propelled by consumers who are seeking out complimentary medicine practitioners in record numbers. It's been a long time coming. The medical establishment will eventually be dragged, half kicking and screaming full force into the quantum revolution.
