Also Rudolf Steiner's work is where Dr Cowan came to understand biodynamic farming and natural medicines under the anthroposophy organization, greatly influencing his medical work. Dr. Cowan tells us how he has examined over the years how much of the explanations given to use don't prove themselves out as to how the body works. He now has several medical doctors in his wellness businesses who treat clients with natural medicine like green vegetables, ancient herbs, etc have made a significant difference in many cases to do with heart failure, cancer, and other illnesses.to infertility. Young doctors and other practitioners trained at his facility as well using these more natural approaches to resolve issues that today are only being treated by medications, operations but with a low success rate.

Dr Cowan is trained & experienced in Anthroposophic medicine which is part of the Rudolf Steiner organization. He is also one of the founding board members and served as Vice Pres. of the Weston A. Price Foundation. He is the author of several best-selling books such as How (and Why) to Eat More Vegetables which describes why eating small amounts of a wide variety of vegetables is key to optimal health or "Human Heart, Cosmic Heart: A Doctor's Quest to Understand, Treat, & Prevent Cardiovascular Disease” and "Cancer & the New Biology of Water," and "Vaccines, Autoimmunity, and the Changing Nature of Childhood Illness" to name a few.

Holistic Edge Radio - Lynn Schuster - How Animal Spirituality Works as a Seamless Tool to Assist Our Own Spiritual Growth 10.30.25

Telepathic animal communicator Lynn Schuster speaks to us today about her natural gifts of communication with the spiritual world, which includes spirit guides, angelic beings, and animals. Talents she was born with and were discouraged as seen by adults and the mind playing tricks with a child's mind. She abandoned it but later on came back to it through her work with art. She explains how animals we adopt have been traumatized by others in this life or in a past life and may still be affecting them, and often explains for odd or bad behavior, sadness, or anger which may not be understood by the guardian. Lynn explains and tries to let the pet know if he /she is in safe circumstances and how she is here to help them. She speaks about reincarnation, and often people want the same pet back after they pass on.  She has experience and helps the guardians locate returning souls of animals in this life. She sees how healing the life of one pet may heal their past lives traumas that may be affecting them in this life and may indirectly heal the past lives of ancestor animals. She tries to give them a clearer understanding of their circumstances so she removes behavior problems in this life as very little is explained to animals and though most think they don't understand, she believes they should have things explained like anyone else to cause less issues, and want to be loved and respected like anyone else. That this is part of our own spiritual growth.
 
Guest Bio:
Lynn Schuster started out in life as a child who could communicate with spirit guides and angels. This ability was dismissed by adults as just her imagination. Lynn now considers the ability to use her imagination as a tool to co-create with the Divine where we can bring into reality our deepest hopes and dreams. As she points out Albert Einstein once said: Imagination is more important than knowledge. In 1976 Lynn Schuster went to Illinois State University and majored in Fine Art, and the use of Fibers, which includes weaving, spinning yarn and many other artistic hands-on skills. And today she teaches weaving, coiled basketry and beadwork at Sievers School of Fiber Arts. She sees art as what helped her keep her mind open and realized that anything is possible, clearing the way for her to reconnect with her spirit guides. In 2004 she began to study Animal Communication and founded her company Animal Spirit Talker and calls herself a telepathic animal communicator. Her mission is to strengthen and bond the relationship between animals and their human families. She feels pets or animals offer us another way to truly heal our lives and can transform the human spirit. Through her work Lynn teaches people to communicate with animals, spirit guides, angelic beings and to reconnect to their actual feelings. She finds that these techniques often lead someone to truly transform themselves and their situation in order to start living a more authentic life. Lynn is also trained as a Reiki Master and Reiki teacher and has studied other healing techniques with her mentor Rebecca Moravec, which includes Shamanic Journeywork, Meditation, Breathwork, Past Life Regression, Soul Retrieval, Totem Animal work and so on. Lynn Schuster lives in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin.

77. Holistic Edge Radio Sandy Wesson, , Part 2:How Clairvoyance Can Heal Humans on Multiple Levels & Heal & Release Spirits Trapped Between Earth & Heaven, Repairs Relationships & Raises the Love Vibration in Humanity Host: E.A.B 9.25.25
 
Sandy Wesson a former RN, and a functional medicine practitioner is moving her career into a new direction. After 30 years of also practicing energy healing to help her clients, she is focused now on only this form of healing as she feels her practical forms or healing are necessary but are now able to be given by many other practitioners she can refer to, such as cell detoxification specialist. In energy healing and clairvoyance she is able to go deeper and assess the client on many levels, so she can address emotional traumas, psychological imbalances, and spiritual setbacks that need correcting, which often she sees are problems created by human error. She also feels more she is receiving direction and more has to be done to help humans that after their passing into the next life get stuck. Sometimes  some are known as ghosts, trapped in time due to fear about being chastised by God, trauma, or confusion.. Some people may have been killed in a group such as in the apartheid or the holocaust. The trauma these souls experience confuses them and they cannot cross over to meet the creator and stay trapped between heaven and earth. It is something  created by human action and these souls need assistance to move forward, as heavenly masters await our arrival to continue on our journey of learning.

Sandy Wesson is a registered nurse from Portland Oregan who after a career working in emergency rooms and palliative care, she decided to move train in functional medicine practiced by naturopaths, or functional medicine medical doctors. Then she learned the power of holistic medicine as she was able to heal herself of Irritable Bowel lSyndrome, mold, a concussion, and other toxins. Often she tells how children or adults do not realize that a hit on the head can result in upsetting the digestion in the stomach 3 days after. And how often this is not corrected, and then leads to new problems such as immunity system problems where your cells attack your body when it detects such things as food particles in the bloodstream due to leaky gut syndrome or small pin holes in the digestive tract due to not chewing our food well. Chunks of food in the stomach cause a breakdown in the stomach lining, and indirectly causes diseases to emerge over time.. How the gut is connected to the heart  and the brain and how cleansing of one means cleansing of the other to be free of future ailments that many die from in old age. Sandy's aim to empower the everyday person with information so they do not have to depend on doctors, when they can find other ways

By focusing on nutrition and gut health, she overcame gastric reflux, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), and brain fog. Incorporating neurofeedback helped her heal from a concussion, enhancing her memory and cognitive function. Sandy Wesson is also known as a clairvoyant and Energy Medicine Practitioner with over 30 years of experience, which she uses to help clients address the deeper, non-physical aspects of their health. Such as Emotional traumas which can cause the breakdown of physical health. Her goal as a healer is to put the power of health back in the hands of each person, rather than being dependent on doctors.

Through the use of an MRI he is able to tell the improvement's on someone's brain and he has also researched the work done with Mathiew Ricard, a buddhist monk know for several years of meditation who was observed with,an MRI. This way they can see the comparison with someone who does Eco Meditation achieving the same results.  The actual ways you yourself can practice these techniques are offered as free instructions about Eco-mediation on /EFTUniverse.com, also for how to do EFT tapping you can go to dawsonchurch.com. (Do not confuse this information with the baptist minister Dawson Church website.)

74. Holistic Edge Radio Dr. Ken Grey, Expert of Oriental Medicine Works in a Medical Setting, Brings Acupuncture to Surgery, & Resolves Patient Conditions Often Ignored as Non-Solvable

74. Holistic Edge Radio Dr. Ken Grey, Expert of Oriental Medicine Works in a Medical Setting, Brings Acupuncture to Surgery, & Resolves Patient Conditions Often Ignored as Non-Solvable with Revolutionary Approaches Host E. A. Brown, June 26, 2025
 
Dr. Ken Grey is an ex-New Yorker who found his calling after a car accident while living in Florida. This incident  exposed him to  healing work by a Chiropractor. It brought him to understand other ways of healing he was not aware of. He trained in oriental medicine but since then has not stopped training in new and unusual approaches such as how to use homeopathic remedies with an acupuncture needle. An approach that helped a woman stop mouth pain she had suffered with for six years, that no dentist could fix, from root canal to taking the tooth the pain would not go away until Dr Grey used this particular approach. His concern with the medical community is if they cannot heal someone then ask the patient to look for alternatives, because it shows a form of compassion instead an attitude of there is nothing that can be done for this person. We've done everything possible, which is often not true. He points out that often families are the ones who send him patients who have given up hope with a certain condition. The person can no longer find a solution and runs the danger of ending their life through overdosing on too much pain medication. He continues to learn and is always finding new approaches on how to help a patient who cannot be helped the conventional way. For example patients who have severe reactions to anesthesia will call him into the surgery room to apply acupuncture needs while the patient is being operated on so they can metabolize the anesthesia well and will not become addicted to a drug if the person has been known for that, even through post op, Dr. Grey continues to apply the needles to help the patient recover well and have no side effects from the operation, so they will heal very quickly and experience a better quality of life afterwards.  Dr. Grey has also started a patient holistic health app on his website called Vell Health, to help anyone who like to optimize their health on demand based on The Five Pillars which are Nutrition, Supplements, Fitness, Mind-Body, and Treatments such as physical therapy, acupuncture, chiropractic, and cranial sacral therapy. The system acts like a virtual holistic Dr. Grey.

73. Holistic Edge Radio Lorraine Goldbloom&VortexHealing: Energy Healing Has Existed Over the Ages Sent by The Divine to Heal Us -VortexHealing Has Raised the Bar by Also Offering A Way to Awaken

73. Holistic Edge Radio Lorraine Goldbloom & VortexHealing: Energy Healing Has Existed Over the Ages Sent by The Divine to Heal Us - VortexHealing Has Raised the Bar by Also Offering A Way to  Awaken the Divine In Ourselves Thru Lineage & Transmission  Host: E. A. Brown June, 19, 2025
 
Lorraine Goldbloom is one of the only five training practitioners and founding members of VortexHealing in the world for this healing path, explains her attraction for this work as a chosen field she searched for in order to help others heal of everyday issues. She did not expect that it would also evolve into a path where she can transmit this healing lineage to her students and observe how the energy, she sees as one sent by the Divine  can  advance a person's "awakening" to the Divine; where one can start to experience what it means to awaken to the Divine within ourselves. This is done so we can stop experiencing each other as separate beings, and put issues in our life to the side. This healing path is one which would seem to many as woo woo, because of the trigger words associated with it. For example the roots of this path is connected to channeling a divine consciousness that was sent to help humanity over many generations associated with a divinity known as Merlin, not the wizard  of King Arthur fame. The name Merlin was used because at one time it was a name that would be accepted in the country  it appeared in, but has had other incarnations in other parts of the world and lived under different names.  Ric Weiman is the founder of VortexHealing and named it VortexHealing as that is how he encountered it, when he came in contact with it, as a swirling vortex in front of him.  At the time he was a practitioner at that time using other forms of healing. There are few practitioners of VortexHealing because the person who carries it has to be strong enough to handle the vastness of the energy for themselves and to hold it in place for others to receive it.  Vortexhealing can address relationship problems, family issues, work conflicts, to name a few things.. This path addresses the very complicated concept that has been hard to understand over the centuries of what is meant by we are part of the Divine, we are not separate from Divine or from others around us;  who are the avatars and how do they understand this, and how do we experience the Divine and stop  thinking of ourselves as separate beings.

It was through this journey she came to find the many approaches in holistic medicine, and to know how the body works in balance with nature, how our psychological balance can affect our physical body, and why its important we all start understanding eco-spirituality or involve our presence n nature. She gives some advice on how to best try out an herbal supplements so its safe, and to not self medicate with herbals because of the delicate balance between different constitutions,  and psychological balance, that it is best to consult with a professional practitioner to figure out what is the best treatment and perhaps what medical professional to consult with if needed.  She then goes on to speak about the use of Tallow and Lard, and her company thefatladytallow.com and how many people who used Tallow of beef fat on the skin that suffer with problems such as eczema found relief and healed, especially children, who often don't find relief through conventional means.The feedback on her website is telling on how the customer is experiencing these products and what success they have had with it.
