We also unpack the cerebellum constellation (and why it can look like emotional numbness, coldness, or “I just don’t care anymore”), and why understanding the biological purpose can ...

Ep 26 - Understanding the Seeming Phenomenon of Contagion with Mark Gober (PART 2)

So, if it’s not germs or viruses causing disease, and if viruses don’t even exist, then what does explain the seeming phenomenon of contagion? In Part 2 of our series with Mark Gober, we examine "contagion" through the lens of German New Medicine but then we also venture beyond the 5 Biological Laws. We discuss the concept of "energetic contagion" - the idea that what we perceive as spreading illness may actually be a shared experience on a metaphysical level.
