Holistic Edge Radio Podcast

Holistic Edge Radio is a podcast that explores choices for wellness to clarify, often cryptic to seemingly simplistic material or regarded as irrelevant to more complicated topics such as new ideas in the environment, or what other cultures in the US have to bring in ways of healing ourselves, others, and the land we live on. It is about a new understanding as these fields change and grow. The show will feature holistic practitioners, medical professionals, sustainability/environment pioneers, energy healers, pet/animal holistic practices, new ideas to address age old problems like hoarding/clutter, addressing psychological and emotional imbalances, ways to address writing, and much more. There will be a tendency to learn more from those located on the East Coast, but this is not a hard fast rule as the program grows.

Simmi Chopra Bhatia speaks to us about her incredible challenges such as surviving cancer, to going from being a molecular biologist to an ayurvedic practitioner now in NYC. She tells us about the specific system used to address each person's health, and how it is broken down by constitution, what foods best fit each type of person, how the purity of supplements are to be requested by patients, and how to be careful about taking up the next popular food on the horizon. Often not understanding that something like popular recipes online or on TV such as  smoothies with raw greens like kale or broccoli, when taken daily without cooking them can start to affect the body negatively without the person's knowledge, leading to other unseen health issues that have to be addressed. She put some light on the new way medical science has found that by studying how genes react to this form of healing it can track if this form of healing is a successful way to prevent disease or of healing of a disease or illness.

62. Bernie Siegel, MD Pioneer/Author of Love, Medicine, & Miracles Explains How Treating a Patient like a Person Not a Disease: How Listening To Their Dreams, Intuition, or Even a Drawing Can Reveal How to Save A Life Host E.A Brown, Feb 13, 2025
 
 
Listen to various stories by Bernie Siegel, MD during about his practice as a doctor with cancer patients and with children and how by conversing with each person, listening to their dreams, intuition, or even having a child do a drawing about their operation gave him great insights and sometime avoid mistakes while trying to save their life in an operating room. How he discovered how to understand a cancer patient and often raise their spiritual views so they could learn how to heal their own bodies; and at times how he would speak to their subconscious mind while in the operating room and request them to stay in this life, often proving to other doctors and staff that these methods work as the patient would survive and be well. Over the years he has trained several therapists to work with patients who are very ill or teach someone how to change their mindset. He  gives us a better understanding of how our mind works, and where our power to get well resides; as well as how we can decide to pass peacefully on our own terms from a point of strength and a sense of empowerment.Music Featured:Will Be By Your Side by MeloMance, and Superstar by Lee Seung Hyub (J.Don) (featuring Cheeze) Solo Debut

Starting to talk to animals did not happen right away, it was a journey, starting with a degree in biology, then training dogs professionally, graduate courses at Purdue University on wild animal behavior while working with wolves and coyotes, volunteering at the Denver Zoo hospital, and doing field studies with wildlife. In 1983 she graduated from Colorado State University as a veterinarian, with a residency in non-domestic animal medicine at UC Davis & the California Department of Fish & Game. She has served as zoological and wildlife veterinarian at several zoos and wildlife facilities in Africa and the United States with a focus on neonatal care; diagnosis; treatment; medical management; capture and re-locations; immobilizations; and necropsies.  But what changed her life came in 1989 when she spent a year in Africa. In 1992 Barbara started a new career in animal communication. She wanted to get to the root cause of an animal’s emotional and physical issues, and get to know who animals are as spiritual beings and what they want to communicate to us. Barbara is the author of Soul of the Wild: Intimate Messages from the Hearts & Souls of Elephants & Whales. Her other book is titled : “Soul of the Wild Book II: The Wisdom of Elephants.”She has a podcast called Animals & Us: Voices of a New Paradigm.

56. Wendie Colter A Medical Intuitive Who Thru Research is Redefining Healthcare by Training Nurses, Doctors  to Read the Body's Biofields to Assess Disease, Emotional & Mental History That Can Harm the Body,  Host E. A.Brown Dec 12, 2024
 
Wendie Colter, MCWC, CMIP® is an educator and practicing medical intuitive who redefines what the term Medical Intuitive, (known as human MRI's) now means, mostly through research, and training professionals like doctors and nurses to use these skills in their practice. As well as the everyday person who learns these skills so they can assess their own health. She has made it a more inclusive skill and talent. The goal being to make it part of the healthcare industry by putting the same skills in the hands of doctors and nurses. It will lessen conflict between patients, doctors, and insurance companies because it will lessen the expense of long-term treatments of mystery illnesses . These skills also work wonderfully with veterinarians who work with pets and also doctors who treat children or those who treat autism in children and adults, etc. Basically you are taught how to read the biofields of the body which some call chakras and auras which contain the entire history of someone's life, and it can tell a practitioner the root of the problem. After much testing in the medical community, she and her graduates went in blind to see patients with no information and were rated at 94% accuracy at finding problems the doctors had already diagnosed and gave additional information to help the doctor do a better job for the patient.

Description:  Roger Jahnke, as a child was moved by his father's death and wanted to become a doctor when he grew up. Once there he learned the medical profession only studied disease but not wellness to prevent disease. His world changed once he learned about reading the Taoist book called Tao Te Ching, the ancient understanding of how human beings should live life. He left medical school and became a Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor, administering acupuncture and herbs. He later moved on to teach only Qigong & Tai Chi as a way to empower people  to start healing themselves through a daily practice at home, not just do it in a class. When you trigger the body through movement and breath medicine, the body understands what to do in order to expel toxins, and maintain healthy organs. This knowledge comes from the indigenous people of China, who understood how to commune with nature and therefore came to understand the body and what we need to do to tap into our own form of internal medicine.

 Luke Blue Eagle is an Indigenous Canadian who is the creator of natural healing products and discusses what healing tools he uses to heal others. He will discuss how ancient indigenous nations used crystals, an amplifier of energy, and how they have no other power, other than the healer, but has seen much misinformation about them in books today. He recommends meditation and other practices to make the healer strong and clear. He has also created an essential oils mix for smudging as the smoke of usual smudging is not possible in hospital settings where he was often called to work on indigenous people. He will also speak about the underestimated importance of having a spiritual practice. How lack of a spiritual practice creates mental weakness, misdirection, and confusion. How not being close to nature also adds to this lack of a spiritual practice and has been creating damage to the planet in several ways, to youth commiiting suicide at an alarming rate to mishandling the care of the physical planet, and aiding in its destruction.

Guest Bio: Luke Blue Eagle is a Saskatchewan Metis from Algonquin, Pawnee, Abenaki and French-Canadian ancestry.  His entire life has been dedicated to the healing of others. .He was not born on a reservation and did not suffer the horrors of the residential schools.  In fact, as a young man, his family never revealed his Native American ancestry to him, although they had four Native American ancestors, they did not adopt the culture or reveal it. At the age of 17 he left the family circle to study music at the Laval Université in Quebec City.   His native origins were later confirmed to him by a genealogist and from his family. This was followed by 25 years of quest during which he was trained in Ancestral Native American Health Care techniques. Not being officially Indian (i.e., not being recognized by the Canadian government as such) he has kept the door open to criticism and pettiness of all kinds. However, as such, it preserved him from the traumas that most Native Americans of his generation suffered.He has written 8 books and is the author of First Nations Crystal Healing: Working with Teachers of the Mineral Kingdom. He is the owner of a company called Invocation Canada for products he has developed. Luke Blue Eagle is part of a series on Gaia.com about Indigenous Crystal Healing Techniques on Gaia TV. He is a recognized expert on crystal use and has taught in North America, Europe, Mongolia, and Asia.Guest Contact:ancestralwisdomtoday.com , invocation.ca, https://blueeagecrystals.com, blueeagleshop.com, blog: aiglebleu.net/en/
