Scott, this episode is really challenging my efforts to be open and curious. I certainly believe that unresolved conflicts or shocks can manifest as "disease". But the degree to which one man refuted decades of validated scientific and medical discoveries (i.e. antibodies, contagious illnesses, vaccines, etc) makes it hard to accept this episode at face value. Plus, I'm not finding much in the way of proactive steps. How, for example, might someone who is battling cancer discover the triggering thought or feeling their parent or they had decades earlier? And how do millions of people triggered by the current state of the world turn their health around? Finally, when I visited Melissa's website, she basically credits her current thriving state to a course her boyfriend created, Mind Mastery: The Ever Better Life Course. She doesn't describe how she came to be an expert in German New Medicine. I'm saying this not to be critical, but in an effort to understand what I'm missing.
Thanks Bruce, appreciate your perspective and pointed questioning here. I think a healthy dose of skepticism can definitely be a good thing. One thing I'll share is that at one point science thought the concept of germs were ridiculous. There are so many things that we have a very fractional understanding of that we pretend like we can see the full truth and totality of. I'm not saying that everything Dr. Sell is correct. However, I do believe there is a clear limitation in what our current science understands. It will probably always be that way, but to take it as complete truth to me is also precarious.
In terms of actionable stuff, I believe German New Medicine, as well as many other modalities, do work directly with people one-on-one on their psychosomatic health issues. I know Dr. Katie Deming, who I previously had in the podcast, incorporates this into her healing with cancer patients because it was completely devoid of this in the traditional system, which is why she left. I also know of a company called Liberate that works specifically on emotional healing for cancer patients and seems to be creating groundbreaking stuff. Here's their website to check out. https://liber8.health/
I have often pondered the long lists of “side effects” of medications. Does the removal or over ride of the symptom by the medication, reveal the underlying issue being so cleverly tended to by the symptom.
Those long, long lists of side effects that could reveal by taking those one magic pills.
How many times do you hear “ suicidal tendencies” as a “ side effect”
What role was a symptom playing in the relationship with that tendency?
I feel there is some wisdom to be found in this phenomenon.
I’m totally into the idea of buried stories making us ill, and our ability to at least partially overcome some illnesses with our own body’s healing ability when we address our mental and emotional pain points.
I find the idea of telling parents that they are harming their children by getting them vaccinated dangerous and irresponsible though. There is apparently an outbreak of the freaking MEASLES in Texas right now, because so many people haven’t been getting their kids vaccinated. That disease was nearly eradicated thanks to the vaccine, but now it’s back. Are we prepared to train all those sick kids in how to heal themselves?
I’m all for exploring alternative healing modalities, but not at the complete expense of modern medicine which has been proven effective.

I also have had and continue to have direct experience with many topics addressed here.
My training in micro-organisms (which I call lovebugs) - human cell interactions have only helped illuminate things more.
Very cool. I don’t know much about lovebugs, but like the sound of them!
Fascinating
Amazing ❤️
What we call disease might just be the body’s most misunderstood language, a biological Morse code of healing.
If symptoms are intelligent adaptations, then perhaps healing is more about listening than resisting.
