EP 090: Sitting Still Outside: How To Ditch The Chronic Illness Trap
Aug 22, 202401:06:01Tap to summarize“My life was giv[ing] me that door to say, ‘You need to stop and slow down. You don’t have another choice,’” says today’s guest, Vanessa Baldwin, a school teacher turned classical homeopath, ancestral health expert, and circadian biology coach. Vanessa’s health journey began with a series of chronic UTIs and bladder infections at the age of five. Over the years, she faced numerous health challenges that conventional medicine either failed to treat or, in some cases, worsened by suppressing her immune system. Living under constant stress, it wasn’t until she spent quiet moments outdoors that she discovered the healing power of circadian biology and homeopathy. In today’s episode of the Quantum Biology Collective podcast, Vanessa opens up about her experience as a vaccine injury survivor and the struggle of not being believed. She delves into homeopathy, explaining how healing can seem counterintuitive until we shift our perspective. Vanessa also discusses working with people’s energetic imprints and what symptoms are truly trying to communicate. The same Type-A personality that once contributed to Vanessa’s chronic stress now fuels her mission to share her insights with the world. Tune in to today’s discussion to learn what she wishes more people understood about circadian biology. Quotes “Just this go-go-go, hustle culture. When I look back at my life then, I think, ‘How did I survive that?’ I had to have been living on chronic stress hormones. I never stopped and repaired…all this depleting stuff. So, then I started racking up diseases all of a sudden. Here I am this really healthy, fit-looking person who runs a lot, and exercises a lot, and does meditation and yoga and all the things, people [would say] ‘You are so healthy.’” (15:18 | Vanessa Baldwin) “Nobody believed me that I had a jab injury. They totally didn’t; I was so dismissed…They said, ‘Here are your antidepressants. Move on.’ That’s how it felt.” (30:27 | Vanessa Baldwin and Meredith Oke) “That’s the magic, where it’s this strong aggravation, which is the immune system ramping up, the symptoms are causing—they’re nudging the body to do what it needed to do that it wasn’t doing. It’s telling the body, ‘OK, this is what you need to work on.’ So, that’s why the symptoms intensify. That’s the immune system finally revving up and doing its job to remove what needs to be removed.” (42:31 | Vanessa Baldwin) “The thing about homeopathy that I think is the most interesting is that you’re only taking an energetic imprint…that’s why it’s so pooh-poohed, because people say, ‘It’s nothing. You’re taking nothing.’...and people don’t understand that, but that’s what makes it so powerful and what makes it so effective.” (44:34 | Vanessa Baldwin) Links Connect with Vanessa Baldwin: Vanessa's Website: https://brightlightwellnesscoach.com/ Vanessa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bright_light_wellness/ https://www.instagram.com/healingfamilieswithhomeopathy/ Vanessa's podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-quantum-connection/id1687318126 Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@BrightLightWellness/videos Free Homeopathy At Home Guide http://gem.godaddy.com/signups/425d2c01be2848b79193824b3e00c71f/join Bon Charge Discount Code: at checkout enter the code: QBC to receive 15% off https://us.boncharge.com/collections/blue-light-blocking-glasses **If you're in the US and have a Health Savings Account (HSA or FSA) BonCharge products are an eligible expense** To receive a FREE infographic of the Ideal Circadian Day & join our email list:https://www.appliedquantumbiology.com/qbc-newsletter-aqb To find a practitioner who understands quantum biology: www.quantumbiologycollective.org To see details about the Applied Quantum Certification: www.appliedquantumbiology.com Follow on Instagram & Facebook: @quantumbiologycollecitve Twitter: @quantumhealthtv Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
Transcribe →EP 089: Circadian Regulation Starts At Conception & Matters For Life
Aug 15, 202401:07:49Tap to summarize“A lot of people think that the placenta is just nourishing the baby, but it’s the portal where they’re getting these hormonal cues from,” says today’s guest, Nikko Kennedy, who returns to the Quantum Biology Collective podcast. In this episode, she delves into the crucial role of circadian regulation starting at conception—even earlier. Nikko explains how a mother’s circadian rhythm influences everything from fertility and childbirth pain to the postpartum experience, shaping the baby’s vital early years. She also emphasizes the significance of nutrition and well-timed eating, particularly after birth, and draws insights from countries with extreme seasons. On a broader scale, Nikko highlights the societal impact of regulating light environments. She discusses how adjusting street lighting has protected endangered species, reduced crime, and supported the mental and emotional health of various communities. She also reveals the growing importance of circadian alignment in the medical, military, and airline industries and how these fields are working to better support their employees. Tune in as Nikko shares practical tips for enhancing circadian regulation in daily life and debunks one of the biggest misconceptions surrounding it. Quotes “This whole idea that [during] motherhood and postpartum you’re going to be completely fatigued, you’re going to be feeling terrible, it’s going to be the hardest thing you’ve ever been through…It still may be the hardest thing you’ve ever been through but it doesn’t have to be difficult in those particular ways if you can actually get your environment right, then we can naturally go into a polyphasic sleep.” (18:16 | Nikko Kennedy) “You can’t have a healthy circadian rhythm that’s not in line with the sun. So, it doesn’t matter what your schedule is, it matters that your body understands what solar time it is.” (32:36 | Nikko Kennedy) “When you think about the effects of circadian disruption on people who are living out on the streets…the potential impacts for a society where we actually had full circadian lighting in all public spaces [would be] so amazing and that group advocacy and awareness-building and moving into policy is really inspiring.” (38:34 | Nikko Kennedy) “A lot of people think that the placenta is just nourishing the baby…That’s the portal where they’re also getting these hormonal cues from the mom to know day from night, just to control all the things so that they happen in the right order across the day.” (48:31 | Nikko Kennedy) Links Connect with Nikko Kennedy: To work with Nikko: https://nikkokennedy.com Nikko's Substack: www.brighterdaysdarkernights.com Instagram: @brighterdays.darkernights linkedin.com/in/nikkokennedy Bon Charge Discount Code: at checkout enter the code: QBC to receive 15% off https://us.boncharge.com/collections/blue-light-blocking-glasses **If you're in the US and have a Health Savings Account (HSA or FSA) BonCharge products are an eligible expense** To receive a FREE infographic of the Ideal Circadian Day & join our email list: https://www.quantumbiologycollective.com/qbc-newsletter-aqb To find a practitioner who understands quantum biology: www.quantumbiologycollective.org To see details about the Applied Quantum Certification: www.appliedquantumbiology.com Follow on Instagram & Facebook: @quantumbiologycollecitve Twitter: @quantumhealthtv Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
Transcribe →EP 088: From Hospital Doctor To Unconventional MD: Navigating The Quantum Paradigm Shift
Aug 8, 202401:21:10Tap to summarize“If you don’t create your reality, your surroundings are going to create it for you, whether you like it or not,” says today’s guest Rachel Maurice, MD, on the Quantum Biology Collective podcast. Dr. Maurice discusses navigating personal and professional paradigm shifts, the power of the subconscious mind, and breaking out of the cult of medicine. After decades as an anesthesiologist at a leading hospital in British Columbia, Canada, the pandemic prompted her to question the traditional medical system. Inspired by Dr. Joe Dispenza’s work, she realized our potential to control our circumstances and explore possibilities beyond the status quo. In today’s episode, Dr. Maurice and host Meredith Oke delve into how conditioning keeps us in a state of fear. They discuss Jason Christoff’s work and the absorbency of the subconscious mind compared to the conscious mind, emphasizing the importance of cleaning up our systems to access our subconscious power. Tune in to hear Dr. Maurice share a story about a former patient that illustrates the possibilities beyond the limitations of our five senses. Quotes “Dr. Jack Kruse talks a lot about that, just how things have been designed and these protocols that are passed down from the people who make them and you just follow these protocols. That’s, in a sense, how evidence-based medicine was born…as opposed to doing individual-based medicine.” (22:26 | Rachel Maurice, MD) “Upon working through Joe Dispenza’s work, my whole outlook on life changed, and instead of focusing on a lot of fear and potential catastrophes that could happen… I really started to open myself to the possibilities that could happen and realize that I could make those possibilities happen, and that’s what started happening in my life.” (29:00 | Rachel Maurice, MD) “The more fear you’re in—and I think a lot of people can understand and see what comes out of the media, what’s on the news, what’s in our entertainment, who we surround ourselves with—that really helps shape how we see the world and actually how our physiology is run. So, the best way to empower yourself is to clean yourself up—clean up your mind, clean up your body, clean up your emotions.” (42:21 | Dr. Rachel Maurice) “A lot of people are really still stuck in wanting to go to the doctor, wanting them to give them something. They really want something to take, and that’s really conditioning. And some external authority figure to diagnose…we want that certainty and that finality and give me the things that’s going to make this better.” (50:52 | Rachel Maurice, MD and Meredith Oke) Links Connect with Rachel Maurice, MD: To work with Rachel as a client: rachelmauricemd.com To join Rachel's team as a Lifewave patch distributor: https://www.lifewave.com/rachelmaurice/enrollment/packs Instagram: @rachel_maurice_md FB: Rachel Maurice To purchase Lifewave X39 patches retail: lifewave.com/qbcpodcast Bon Charge Discount Code: at checkout enter the code: QBC to receive 15% off https://us.boncharge.com/collections/blue-light-blocking-glasses **If you're in the US and have a Health Savings Account (HSA or FSA) BonCharge products are an eligible expense** To receive a FREE infographic of the Ideal Circadian Day & join our email list: https://www.quantumbiologycollective.com/qbc-newsletter-aqb To find a practitioner who understands quantum biology: www.quantumbiologycollective.org To see details about the Applied Quantum Certification: www.appliedquantumbiology.com Follow on Instagram & Facebook: @quantumbiologycollecitve Twitter: @quantumhealthtv Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
Transcribe →EP 087: Leveraging Your Location For Optimal Quantum Health
Aug 1, 202401:09:43Tap to summarize“I’m not going to become a recluse; I’m just going to embrace it and find something positive about being wherever I am,” says Dr. Sara Pugh, returning for her third appearance on the Quantum Biology Collective podcast. Dr. Sara discusses how to live an optimal quantum healthy lifestyle no matter your location, sharing insights from her experiences in a remote Swiss mountain village, the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia, and her home in Yorkshire, England. She highlights the unique quantum benefits and challenges of each place, focusing on maximizing and appreciating all aspects of her surroundings, and choosing to view the world through love instead of fear. Dr. Sara also delves into the significance of structured water, emphasizing its importance on par with food and nutrition. She shares how she enhances her water with sacred geometry, filtering out negative information and incorporating positive energy. This perspective aligns with the belief of several thought leaders that humans are vessels for this sacred element. Join today’s episode of the Quantum Biology Collective podcast to learn practical tips for making the most of your environment, discover the healthiest airport and airline options, and hear about the humorous lengths Dr. Sara goes to create total darkness in her various homes. Quotes “I think it’s to do with this drinking water with energy and information in it, it can be profoundly life-changing because we are made of water and plasma, but the water, like I was saying before, some people think that we’re the vessels that carry the consciousness.” (19:13 | Dr. Sara Pugh) “Everything is energy and information and the information is more important than the energy.” (20:58 | Dr. Sara Pugh) “If someone waves a fancy machine at me, no, I’m not interested. If it’s something to do with water or nature or crystals or sacred geometry or all that kind of natural stuff I can’t hurt myself with, that doesn’t plug in the wall, that our ancients did, then I’m really up for it because it’s, like you said, it’s about reconnecting with natural things that aren’t very expensive and even if it’s all nonsense it will just do nothing, it won’t hurt me.” (22:41 | Dr. Sara Pugh) “What I’ve also learned and want to say about this is, and it’s something about the fear and love mindset: I’ve decided now, I can’t do anything about a lot of these things, so I’m not just going to become a recluse and live in a tent in Wales or not travel because of EMFs and being off the ground and all of these things. I’m just going to embrace it and find something positive about being in an airport or being in an airplane.” (50:33 | Dr. Sara Pugh) Links Connect with Sara Pugh, PhD: Socials & YouTube: @busysuperhuman Website: busysuperhuman.com Bon Charge Discount Code: at checkout enter the code: QBC to receive 15% off https://us.boncharge.com/collections/blue-light-blocking-glasses **If you're in the US and have a Health Savings Account (HSA or FSA) BonCharge products are an eligible expense** To receive a FREE infographic of the Ideal Circadian Day & join our email list: https://www.quantumbiologycollective.com/qbc-newsletter-aqb To find a practitioner who understands quantum biology: www.quantumbiologycollective.org To see details about the Applied Quantum Certification: www.appliedquantumbiology.com Follow on Instagram & Facebook: @quantumbiologycollecitve Twitter: @quantumhealthtv Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
Transcribe →EP 086: Back To Basics: Why Care About Quantum Biology?
Jul 25, 202400:54:08Tap to summarize“It’s amazing what happens when you step out of your comfort zone.” In the inaugural episode of “Quantum Healthy,” Meredith joins co-hosts Laura Kissman and Andeea Rae, alumnae of the Applied Quantum Certification program, as the first guest! They delve into the necessity of belief in quantum biology and quantum health, challenging conventional medicine and rigid scientific paradigms. Meredith shares the origin story of the Quantum Biology Collective and teases an exciting new direction it will soon take. They acknowledge Jim Al-Khalili and Johnjoe McFadden for their pioneering book, “Life on the Edge,” which introduced quantum biology to the public, and Dr. Jack Kruse for linking quantum biology to practical health applications and boldly advocating for it. Meredith sees her role as making quantum biology accessible to everyone, empowering them to connect with it. The creation of the Quantum Biology Collective podcast was as non-linear as quantum biology itself. Meredith discusses the importance of leveraging strengths, learning to pivot, and stepping out of established lanes—valuable lessons for new startups. Quotes “We're not just going to a chemical level, we're going to a subatomic level and looking at how biology functions from that perspective…what I was interested in and what the Institute of Applied Quantum Biology is interested in is like, ‘Okay, so if this is true, what does that mean practically? What does that mean for people in their everyday lives?...And I think that's the door that quantum biology opens up really, really wide.” (6:28 | Meredith Oke) “How many times have you heard, ‘Oh, it’s just an anomaly.’ It’s like, well, no, that’s something that can’t be explained by your formula or your paradigm…just because we can’t explain it, doesn’t mean it’s an anomaly.” (8:13 | Meredith Oke) “If that guru repels people or there are certain people who don’t like him, then they’re lost to the movement…So, from my perspective I thought, that’s what needs to happen with this it needs to belong to the people, as it were, so that everyone feels empowered to access it and connect to it.” 17:57 | Meredith Oke) “I would love for people to embrace their strengths, to see that about themselves…you have gifts, and so find them…You know how to make them happen, so why wouldn’t you just do it?’ That was a huge growth moment for me and I hope it helps other people to just do it, do their thing. Do your thing.” (37:20 | Meredith Oke) Links Bon Charge Discount Code: at checkout enter the code: QBC to receive 15% off https://us.boncharge.com/collections/blue-light-blocking-glasses **If you're in the US and have a Health Savings Account (HSA or FSA) BonCharge products are an eligible expense** To receive a FREE infographic of the Ideal Circadian Day & join our email list: https://www.quantumbiologycollective.com/qbc-newsletter-aqb To find a practitioner who understands quantum biology: www.quantumbiologycollective.org To see details about the Applied Quantum Certification: www.appliedquantumbiology.com Follow on Instagram & Facebook: @quantumbiologycollecitve Twitter: @quantumhealthtv Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
Transcribe →EP 085: How To Claim Control Over Our Tech
Jul 18, 202401:03:18Tap to summarize“We’re sort of becoming the AA of the digital world,” says today’s guest Andrew Laubacher, executive director of the new nonprofit Humanality. The organization helps college students redefine their relationship with technology, encouraging intentional use and control rather than being controlled by it. Students participate in various levels of “detox,” including reducing screen time, trading smartphones for “dummy” phones, and deleting social media accounts. Andrew knows the struggle firsthand. As a touring musician, he was constantly on social media to promote his band and gigs, leading to a smartphone addiction. After removing himself from social media, he experienced numerous benefits, such as an increased attention span, deepened relationships, and an enhanced capacity for learning. Humanality is not anti-technology. Instead, it aims to help young people realize their true selves, free from the need for social validation, novelty, and positive feedback that devices exploit, while fostering real-world interpersonal relationships. In today’s episode of The Quantum Biology Collective podcast, Andrew and host Meredith Oke discuss the natural world as our portal to God’s grace and why more adults should incorporate play into their lives. Quotes “I just started to notice in myself, over the year, man, I was on this way too much. I was way too concerned with myself. It was making me really anxious because I was literally able to see everything happening in the world all at once, and I really do believe the human person was not designed to experience an attribute of God, which is namely His omnipresence. He is the only one that has the capacity to be able to handle that power, but I had it in the palm of my hand.” (9:52 | Andrew Laubacher) “Studying the minds behind these designs, they really weren’t well-intentioned and they weren’t really thinking of our well-being. They were thinking of our attention and, really, monetizing it.” (14:09 | Andrew Laubacher) “I do believe people are waking up to the deleterious effects of online life. And really how we believe at Humanality that engaging reality is worth it, and that being a human person, in person, while utilizing the good of technology is more optimal.” (15:46 | Andrew Laubacher) “There’s sort of a biological mismatch we’re in right now, where pretty much all the insta-ficatation of everything…and I honestly enjoy a lot of them, but they’re also, largely, not what our biology was designed for and making us sick. So, it’s this really weird experience where the convenience is amazing but it’s kind of also killing us.” (24:20 | Andrew Laubacher) Links Connect with Andrew Laubacher: www.humanality.org Bon Charge Discount Code: at checkout enter the code: QBC to receive 15% off https://us.boncharge.com/collections/blue-light-blocking-glasses **If you're in the US and have a Health Savings Account (HSA or FSA) BonCharge products are an eligible expense** To receive a FREE infographic of the Ideal Circadian Day & join our email list: https://www.quantumbiologycollective.com/qbc-newsletter-aqb To find a practitioner who understands quantum biology: www.quantumbiologycollective.org To see details about the Applied Quantum Certification: www.appliedquantumbiology.com Follow on Instagram & Facebook: @quantumbiologycollecitve Twitter: @quantumhealthtv Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
Transcribe →EP 084: Back To Basics: BLOCK BLUE LIGHT AT NIGHT
Jul 11, 202401:04:49Tap to summarize“Why take the chance with light?” says Andy Mant, founder of Bon Charge, a holistic wellness company that manufactures blue-blocking glasses and other products designed to prevent circadian disruption and promote health. He joins the Quantum Biology Collective podcast to discuss the importance of minimizing blue light exposure, especially at night. Even those who prioritize their health through diet, exercise, and supplementation often overlook light as a crucial factor in health and disease prevention. We might believe we’re functioning optimally, but many of us don’t truly understand what it means to experience restorative sleep. Andy shares simple changes that can enhance health benefits and offers tips for convincing a hesitant partner or spouse to embrace these changes. Join today’s discussion to learn about the origins of Bon Charge and Andy’s advice for aspiring entrepreneurs. Quotes “We've created artificial suns in our environment. We’re now living under artificial suns inside during the evening, during the day. The frequencies of light in those artificial suns impacts us hormonally very differently to natural light.” (14:38 | Andy Mant) “You know, you’ve got to sort out that light environment. There’s no quick fix here. There’s no, ‘My husband or my wife, they want to keep the lights on.’ No, you’ve got to take control and educate them that no, this is bad, because otherwise you’re just going to have the negative effects. It’s like dating someone that doesn’t understand nutrition, but they’re cooking for you every night. So, you’re eating hot dogs and burgers and pizza every night going, but you know, that’s all they know. You’ve got to educate them. But during that education process, obviously, it’s not spooking them saying, ‘Right, got to do this, got to do that, or you’re going to die.’ It’s little bits at a time and try to get them into it slowly.” (20:49 | Andy Mant) “Why take the chance with light causing you these issues? Just popping on a pair of glasses for two hours before you go to bed or getting sunlight in your eyes first thing in the morning before you see any other light, installing a few lightbulbs in your house that don’t emit blue light to put on after dark, and not scrolling your phone an hour before bed. What compromise is that? It’s nothing. It’s such a small thing to do to have that piece of mind that you’re then protecting your future self against any kind of potential harmful impact that this artificial light could be having on your circadian biology.” (31:17 | Andy Mant) Links Connect with Andy Mant: Website: boncharge.com (enter code QBC at checkout) Instagram: @iamandymant Bon Charge Discount Code: at checkout enter the code: QBC to receive 15% off https://us.boncharge.com/collections/blue-light-blocking-glasses **If you're in the US and have a Health Savings Account (HSA or FSA) BonCharge products are an eligible expense** To receive a FREE infographic of the Ideal Circadian Day & join our email list: https://www.quantumbiologycollective.com/qbc-newsletter-aqb To find a practitioner who understands quantum biology: www.quantumbiologycollective.org To see details about the Applied Quantum Certification: www.appliedquantumbiology.com Follow on Instagram & Facebook: @quantumbiologycollecitve Twitter: @quantumhealthtv Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
Transcribe →EP 083: The Non Linear Nature of Healing
Jul 4, 202401:44:34Tap to summarize“Unresolved emotions are such an overlooked piece. It’s huge,” says Dr. Calvin Ng, a chiropractor specializing in applied kinesiology and “neuro-emotional technique,” about the impact of the nervous system on our health. In modern Western society, we often live in a state of constant sympathetic dominance—fight or flight. This unhealed trauma, stored resentment, anger, and misalignment with our true values and desires lead to cellular chaos, also known as inflammation, the cornerstone of disease. Our nervous system shapes our cellular beliefs. Childhood trauma causes our nervous system to keep us in a perpetual state of stress for safety. This results in self-protective false narratives and limiting beliefs. However, speaking positively to ourselves can change not just our health but our lives entirely. Dr. Calvin explains how he helps clients uncover the root of their issues, “clear the fog,” and move towards their dreams. Despite not being “woo-woo,” Dr. Calvin emphasizes the importance of connecting to our subconscious to truly experience positive change at the level of our nervous system. No amount of nutrition or exercise can replace this connection. He shares the story of his parents’ differing attitudes toward their jobs and the resulting health outcomes. Dr. Calvin also highlights the natural world as an example of circadian harmony, a true sense of belonging, and the time to think and find answers. Join today’s episode of the Quantum Biology Collective podcast to hear him discuss the power of hope and why he believes light is the future of medicine. Quotes “We have this pride in this hustle culture. Working hard, working overtime. And so, this stress that we’re under… I think this is really the cause of disease.” (17:53 | Dr. Calvin Ng) “The same way we as Americans need to look at other parts of the world to see how they’re living, we need to think of us as human animals and say, ‘What are the other animals doing?...look at what’s happening in nature and not get caught up with society, the modern life that we have created for ourselves.” (44:23 | Dr. Calvin Ng) “If you don’t address that emotional component of being truly aligned with getting healthier, helping yourself, starting a new life, going toward a life you truly, truly want, then we are just going to be spinning our wheels… Everything has to be in order, has to be truly aligned.” (1:10:30 | Dr. Calvin Ng) “The reason we feel so peaceful [in nature] is because it’s a belonging. We feel like we actually belong there–not think—we feel we belong there. That’s the difference.” (1:20:26 | Dr. Calvin Ng) Links Connect with Dr. Calvin Ng: Website: www.drcalvinng.com Socials: @drcalvinng Bon Charge Discount Code: at checkout enter the code: QBC to receive 15% off https://us.boncharge.com/collections/blue-light-blocking-glasses **If you're in the US and have a Health Savings Account (HSA or FSA) BonCharge products are an eligible expense** To receive a FREE infographic of the Ideal Circadian Day & join our email list: https://www.quantumbiologycollective.com/qbc-newsletter-aqb To find a practitioner who understands quantum biology: www.quantumbiologycollective.org To see details about the Applied Quantum Certification: www.appliedquantumbiology.com Follow on Instagram & Facebook: @quantumbiologycollecitve Twitter: @quantumhealthtv Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
Transcribe →EP 082: Launching A Light Revolution: The Book That Could Change Everything
Jun 27, 202400:57:13Tap to summarize“We’re contributing to epidemics of psychiatric illness and cancer in the name of energy conservation and climate change without realizing the harm being done,” says Dr. Martin Moore-Ede, who returns to the Quantum Biology Collective Podcast just ahead of the release of his book “The Light Doctor.” Host Meredith Oke predicts the book will have the same impact on revealing the devastating effects of poor light on circadian biology as Rachel Carson’s 1962 book Silent Spring had on the now-banned pesticide DDT. In this episode, Dr. Moore-Ede explains how advancements in light technology—from the brightness of Thomas Edison’s lightbulb to the blue light emitted by LEDs—are linked to physical disorders such as diabetes and various cancers, particularly breast cancer, as well as mental health issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. He also claims there’s no evidence that LED lights save the energy they are supposed to. With the threat of a full ban on healthy light bulbs looming, we need to act fast. Tune in to learn the most important thing we can do each day to protect ourselves. Quotes “Many, many aspects of sunlight are curative, the infrared and the violet and many many other aspects are green. But in the context of circadian rhythms, it synchronizes robustly with our circadian clock and is associated with longevity and not just living longer but living healthier longer, which is what we all hope for.” (12:46 | Dr. Moore-Ede) “Night is a time for not only sleep but for the rest/restorative features of the body. So, melatonin is something that helps trigger restorative actions of the body. Growth hormone coming out in the evening hours, for example, it comes out early in the sleep period. All those systems in the body are now repairing the cells.” (21:27 | Dr. Moore-Ede) “We know, for example, women who don’t see electric light rarely get breast cancer. It was very rare to see these before Edison invented the light bulb. We know that women who are in a non-electrified part of the world, and there are quite a few million people in that state, don’t get breast cancer or rarely get it. And we also know that women who are blind from an early age rarely get breast cancer.” (25:55 | Dr. Moore-Ede) “We’re contributing to the epidemics of psychiatric illness and anxiety, depression, PTSD. We’re contributing to the epidemics of cancer… in the name of energy conservation and climate change and being positive in this arena, without realizing the harm done by, really, a false metric.” (44:10 | Dr. Moore-Ede) Links Connect with Dr. Martin Moore-Ede: https://thelightdoctor.com/ https://circadianlight.org/ Substack: lightdoctormartinmooreede.substack.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-moore-ede-80630a12/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/circadianlightdoctor/ Twitter (X): https://twitter.com/DrMooreEde/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@drmartinmoore-ede1539 Google Scholar: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=lFyCIC0AAAAJ&hl=en Bon Charge Discount Code: at checkout enter the code: QBC to receive 15% off https://us.boncharge.com/collections/blue-light-blocking-glasses **If you're in the US and have a Health Savings Account (HSA or FSA) BonCharge products are an eligible expense** To receive a FREE infographic of the Ideal Circadian Day & join our email list: https://www.quantumbiologycollective.com/qbc-newsletter-aqb To find a practitioner who understands quantum biology: www.quantumbiologycollective.org To see details about the Applied Quantum Certification: www.appliedquantumbiology.com Follow on Instagram & Facebook: @quantumbiologycollecitve Twitter: @quantumhealthtv Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
Transcribe →EP 081: Quantum Herbalism And The Power of Plants
Jun 20, 202401:12:53Tap to summarize“Plants heal themselves; they are their own doctors,” explains Amber Hargroder, a quantum herbalist and listener favorite. She returns to the Quantum Biology Collective podcast to discuss how plants offer the same healing to us by behaving in the body as they do in response to environmental stress. In our modern world, including contemporary science and medicine, we speak in "logos", or logic and rational proof, whereas herbalists speak in “phasis” (faw-sis), the language of knowledge through experience, nature, metaphor, and dreams. They let nature speak for itself from its experience. Amber talks to host Meredith Oke about how barriers in language, culture, and socio-economic class have historically prevented people from embracing the healing properties of the natural world. She exposes the flaws in scientific studies that deem plants ineffectual and discusses how advances in technology are pushing us to rediscover our humanity and our relationship with the earth. Tune in for another engaging conversation with Amber as she explains how lies are embedded in our language and reveals the true, surprising origins of the Santa Claus tale. Quotes “Whatever environment that a plant is growing in, if it’s an environment that has a certain type of stress, the plant creates its own medicine to deal with that stress, and then we use that plant to also heal a similar stress.” (4:28 | Amber Hargroder) “When you look at a traditional allopathic doctor today, more and more—there are outliers of course—but more and more you’re looking at patients as being a machine. They’re all widgets; they’re all the same. ‘I will give you this pill because this is the result that we get in the study and it’s uniform,’ whereas an herbalist is healing as an individual with an individual.” (10:49 | Amber Hargroder) “Phasis is observation versus an argument. It’s not linear. Nature is not linear. Spirituality is not linear. Healing is not linear.” (15:21 | Amber Hargroder) “I think this is perhaps why people are starting to get more interested in herbalism and healing with sunlight and water and all these things, is because we’re trying to redefine what it means to be human. And a big part of that is phasis— it is the dream world, it is the visionary state, it is your intuition, which a computer doesn’t have.” (25:51 | Amber Hargroder) “We have to get back into the body, and I think plants help you do that. Plants when you sit with them and you’re aware while you’re drinking them they help you, not only understand the plant and the embodiment of the plant, the essence of it, but the essence of yourself.” (1:09:37 | Amber Hargroder) Links Connect with Amber Hargroder: Website: www.amberhargroder.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/amberhargroder Newsletter: https://www.amberhargrodernewsletter.com/signup Bon Charge Discount Code: at checkout enter the code "QBC" to receive 15% off https://us.boncharge.com/collections/blue-light-blocking-glasses **If you're in the US and have a Health Savings Account (HSA or FSA) BonCharge products are an eligible expense** To receive a FREE infographic of the Ideal Circadian Day & join our email list: https://www.quantumbiologycollective.com/qbc-newsletter-aqb To find a practitioner who understands quantum biology: www.quantumbiologycollective.org To see details about the Applied Quantum Certification: www.appliedquantumbiology.com Follow on Instagram & Facebook: @quantumbiologycollective Twitter: @quantumhealthtv Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
