TED Controversy Sparks Heated Debate Over Scientism, Religion, and Medicine

TED Controversy Sparks Heated Debate Over Scientism, Religion, and Medicine

Recent developments within the TEDx conference (Technology, Entertainment, and Design) community of organizers are indicative of a rising tide of intolerance in the world of science. Historically, TED has provided an influential forum for cutting edge ideas that may not otherwise have had a fair hearing in the public arena. Recent events, however, should cause one to question the credibility of TED and are a

Year of the Snake 2013: A Time of Transformation and Healing

By Larry Malerba, DO, DHt  (Reality Sandwich) Before our very eyes, a deeply polarized America seething with hatred for the “other” side has erupted into a landscape of violence. As we stand on the brink of destroying ourselves from within, genuine healing is needed now more than ever.

2012: A Vision for Planetary Healing

By Larry Malerba, DO, DHt (The Green Forum) With the end of the Mayan calendar now upon us, I would like to offer some thoughts regarding where we have been, where we are going, and what this may all mean for our present lives and the future of humankind.

What is Suppression and Why Does it Cause Chronic Illness?

What is Suppression and Why Does it Cause Chronic Illness?

by Larry Malerba, DO, DHt (The Green Forum) Medical professionals and their patients tend to take the term suppression for granted. They have only a vague sense of what it means as it applies to medicine—but what is it really and what impact does it have upon health? I believe that all green health practitioners have an obligation to increase awareness of this phenomenon in

Holistic Medicine and True Health Care Reform

Holistic Medicine and True Health Care Reform

By Dr. Larry Malerba, DO, DHt (Dynamic Living Magazine) The system is badly broken and in need of repair: While universal health coverage for all Americans regardless of age, infirmity, or economic status would be a critical step in the right direction, it would still only provide access to the same flawed and dangerous practices that make medical care the third leading cause of death

Is Depression Caused by a Chemical Imbalance or Not?

Is Depression Caused by a Chemical Imbalance or Not?

By Larry Malerba, DO, DHt (NaturalNews) Contemporary scientific culture has fed us the mantra that depression is the result of a chemical imbalance for so long now that the premise is rarely questioned by the general public. Such an overly simplistic explanation suits the needs of a medical establishment that can only think of illness in biochemical terms. It conveniently dispenses with the inherent messiness of

The Biases that Shape our Broken Health Care System

The Biases that Shape our Broken Health Care System

By Larry Malerba, DO, DHt (American Holistic Medical Association Blog) We can probably all agree that the profit motive is the greatest source of dysfunction in American medicine. But aside from the obvious fact that medicine has devolved into an industry that markets products to medical “consumers,” there are a number of more fundamental problems that must be addressed if the health care system is ever

What Is the Green Medicine Revolution? (Part III)

What Is the Green Medicine Revolution? (Part III)

by Larry Malerba, DO, DHt (Huffington Post) One Size Does Not Fit All: The rising green revolution will not settle for the conventional medical status quo. Green medicine transcends the cookie-cutter model that erroneously believes that most, if not all, persons with the same medical condition should respond to the same treatment. It seeks to improve upon the pharmaceutical/surgical tunnel vision of corporate medicine in

The Paradox of the Wounded Healer

The Paradox of the Wounded Healer

by Larry Malerba, DO, DHt (The Healers Blog) Archeologists recently discovered yet another ancient sanctuary dedicated to Asklepios thanks to a road construction project about 125 miles north of Athens in Greece. Over 300 such temples have been previously identified all across Europe and Northern Africa. While many are familiar with Hippokrates, the father of medicine, few are aware of Asklepios, the Greek god of

What Is the Green Medicine Revolution? (Part II)

What Is the Green Medicine Revolution? (Part II)

by Larry Malerba, DO, DHt (Huffington Post/AOL) A green medical approach seeks innovation and is open to all healing methodologies, new or old, Western or Eastern, left-brained or right. The Green Revolution in medicine will bring together the best of conventional and alternative resources. It is not about eliminating one in favor of the other. It is about achieving a balanced approach that seeks unity

How Today’s Medical Apartheid Is Sinking Health Care

How Today's Medical Apartheid Is Sinking Health Care

by Larry Malerba, DO, DHt (Huffington Post/AOL) Let’s face it, we have created an increasingly divided medical system that resembles a form of apartheid. This medical apartheid is, not surprisingly, a reflection the polarized society in which we live. The etymology of the term “apart-heid” essentially translates into “separate” “hood.” The unnatural divide has reached extreme proportions as the balance of power tips more in

The Bioenergetic Basis of Illness (part I)

The Bioenergetic Basis of Illness (part I)

by Larry Malerba, DO, DHt (Natural News) Mainstream medicine tends to balk at the suggestion that there may be subtler energetic forces at play in disease processes, as if this notion was some sort of science fiction fantasy. However, if the laws of physics determine all chemical and, therefore, all biological processes, then the answers that we seek in the quest to heal human ills

What is the Green Medicine Revolution? (part 1)

by Larry Malerba, DO, DHt (Huffington Post/Aol) Everywhere we hear the call for the greening of American culture, and many are coming to understand that the same is needed for our medical culture. The complex issues surrounding the human experience of illness, disease, death, recovery, health and cure are too diverse and multifactorial to be confined to the limited parameters that orthodox Western medicine uses

Is modern medicine more science or religion?

Is modern medicine more science or religion?

by Larry Malerba, DO, DHt (Natural News) Is it science or religion? Modern medicine projects the image of scientific rigor but has all the hallmarks of a system of religious belief. The practical consequence of its insular perspective is the dead-end system of Western medical materialism that we have today. Repair of the physical body is erroneously equated with healing. Never mind whether it is

Could grief be causing your chronic illness?

Could grief be causing your chronic illness?

by Larry Malerba, DO, DHt (NaturalNews) Aside from the many self-inflicted and medically induced causes of illness such as smoking, poor nutrition, alcohol and drug abuse, pharmaceutical side effects, allopathic suppression, and surgeries gone awry, perhaps the most common “natural” cause of chronic illness is unresolved grief. Grief is natural in the sense that everyone is faced with the issue at some point in his

Notable Quotes

"In the last century or so, science has unwittingly fallen prey to the very habit of mind it was designed to avoid. In its desire to distance itself from doctrine in order to delve dispassionately into the nature of things, science has come dangerously close to advocating a doctrinaire materialism." - from Yoga Psychology and the Transformation of Consciousness by Don Salmon & Jan Maslow
