Mary Jo Kreitzer teleseminar on "Creating Optimal Healing Environments"

(1 rating)

Dr. Mary Jo Kreitzer, the founder and director of the Center for Spirituality and Healing at the University of Minnesota, discusses with host, Marilyn Schlitz, the relationship between the design of spaces and health outcomes and how this knowledge is being applied in health care settings. Dr. Kreitzer sites the growing interest in academia and research studies which support the weaving of integrative practices with allopathic medicine into the fabric of health care. There have been well over 1000 studies that resulted in evidence that the physical environment can affect health outcome. She tells us this is a rich time to utilize the finding from these studies, as $16 billion dollars have been invested to construct new hospitals. Mary Jo offers inspiration and advocates the effectiveness of personal action to make changes in our current health care system.

Most Advanced Healing Places! Where???????

Great seminar and inspiring.

However my vote for the best place is http://www.patchadams.org/
and it needs your support to make it real. I would love to see where you would go to recover your wellbeing. Please add your places.

I also recommend AHMA at http://www.holisticmedicine.org

I am curious what your thinking is about Michael Moore's Sicko movie?http://www.michaelmoore.com/sicko/index.html
He details distressing information in regards to the profit motive and how much and what care you receive.

I like the comment that Americans have a rugged individualism gene implanted as a GMO and that this needs to be cut out to achieve the "Take care of each other" maxim.

Also a guest on these seminars just a while back stated that there would be NO change to the status quo regarding a National Health Care Plan from any of the presidential candidates as they were preapproved by the AMA and all the extremely wealthy established medical industry interests. So Thank You very much for you interest BUT forget any National Plan for changes to American Health.

Any change needs to center around personal responsibility and factual information. Stories of success are just as valid as double blind scientific research. Please don't swallow these hook-line-sinker.

I would like to hear more about the social groups around aging as this has become my primary interest. Let's start an old folks' home on the IONS campus!

I'd hate to give an impression that my own favourite is best: we probably need to see which of the many holistic places suits our own profile - to help in choosing.

http://www.Sanoviv.com worked very well for diagnosing my heavy metal toxicities and starting a set of treatments; which were: chelation synergised by eating more raw vegetarian food. Clay and seaweed wraps were also offered, so I became aware of a variety of treatments.

Joining some of the autism lists, later, led to the ideas of Vit. MB12 opening up the glutathione detoxification pathway; and so on. Multiple paths are versatile, and with some luck, synergysitic. Heavy metals lead to some kinds of autism. Heavy metals can be chelated; autism can't; according to some gold mining theorists.

Another way of looking at "Americans have a rugged individualism gene implanted as a GMO and that this needs to be cut out to achieve the "Take care of each other" maxim;" might be that it works great a lot of the time. Nurture it.

When it doesn't work so well it just needs another perspective or three that suggest supporting frames of mind. No need to throw the Rugged Baby out with the Individualistic Bathwater: just put sets of perspectives together for all kinds of situations that come up in such a diverse society.

Six Hat Thinking is formal logical; Mind Mapping is intuitive. Put them together if you are agile. You can work on a rugged branch before coffee and a co-operative branch before lunch; because it may be confusing to work on both at once.

Aging...? Alzheimer's is a Senile expression of Autism: at least in the sense that some treatments are in common... Now excuse me while I get my earthquake survival kit dusted off. :;--)

Sanoviv is partly funded by the wealth of USANA, I believe: with all that is good about those marketeering plans and only a little that is difficult. It might be one way of supporting progressive health in many areas ?
