Do It On Thursday™    

Experiment with:
Tuning In To Your Body

Emotional intelligence has been shown to have a powerful effect on the art and science of healing, yielding amazing results. But Western medicine is still often lacking in EQ - the mind, heart, body connections - that alternative and Eastern medicine practitioners have long recognized and used to heal. How do we remedy the situation of West vs. East and incorporate the best of both worlds for optimal healing? How can we use EQ to heal ourselves? How do you figure out what your body needs?

TOMORROW:

When you notice a physical issue, like a headache or a cramp in your leg, sit quietly and ask your body, "What's up?" Tune in and let yourself free-associate. Try not to judge, just listen to whatever crosses your mind. You might be surprised what you learn.

 






Fighting Cancer with EQ
June 29, 2011

EQ can save your business but could it save your life? Western medicine has made a tremendous difference in quality of life for many people. We now live longer, have more life-saving technology available to us and can even replace worn out body parts through the marvels of science. Progress has even been made in treating and curing many kinds of cancer. But Western medicine is still often lacking in the EQ – the mind, heart, body connections - that alternative and Eastern medicine practitioners have long recognized and used to heal. How do we remedy the situation of West vs. East and incorporate the best of both worlds for optimal healing? On this week’s episode of LEI, Esther Orioli and her featured guests Robert Gorter, M.D. and Erik Peper, Ph.D., discuss how modern medicine is often barking up the wrong tree when it comes to understanding and treating cancer and the new ways emotional intelligence can be used to fight disease.
