Meta-Health and EFT Tapping with Sam Neffendorf – Episode 205

The Story: Taking control of your own health

Sam Neffendorf is an expert in meta-health, a strategy for putting various health traditions and EFT, a healing technique that combines principles of acupressure and hypnosis. In this interview, Sam gives Kurt an overview of how meta-health can help people take control of their own healing, putting data from various sources into context.

Many people have the experience of going to their doctor and feeling like they’re not being taken seriously, given a prescription and ushered out of the office before the doctor’s next appointment in 12 minutes. Even so, it would be a mistake to dismiss western medicine entirely, as their diagnostic methods are the most advanced in the world, and the pills they prescribe can help in many extreme health situations.

There are also many things to learn from other medical traditions, such as the long and thorough consultations from homeopathy, guiding people towards knowledge of their own habits and helping them realise what is really beneficial for them, in addition to the treatments.

Here Sam explains how we can discover our own patterns of stress that often precede the symptoms, how life can be seen as a series of cycles involving stress and regeneration, and what to do when we get trapped in a part of this cycle. Join us on a personal health journey on this episode of The Paradise Paradox!

Homeopathy: Just water? – Episode 144

The Story: Are homeopathic solutions nothing more than water?

For many educated people, the argument against homeopathy as a system of medicine is pretty straightforward: it’s just water. That is to say, homeopathy involves diluting substances to a level that you can’t reasonably expect any of the original substance to remain, and therefore any medicinal effect that it has can’t be better than regular water, or a placebo. However, they’re mistaken.

This is a fallacy of composition – it assumes that because water molecules are identical, anything made from a bunch of water molecules must also be identical. A simple analogy to demonstrate the error in this line of thinking would be to say, all Tetris squares are identical, and so any Tetris board formed with 20 squares has the same properties. Or, all oxygen atoms are equal, and therefore any combination of them must also be equal – which is not true, oxygen atoms can form in molecules of O2, O3, O4 and O8.

In fact, there are at least three studies suggesting that homeopathic solutions are not “just water”, but something else – something with a measurable difference. Join me in finding out how in the next watered-down episode of The Paradise Paradox!
