WAVE 2023: The Science of Vitalism (Lipton, online 2024)
Overview
Since its inception by D. D. Palmer in 1895, Chiropractic has been based on the role of vitalism in shaping an individual’s health. Until recently, conventional medical science has dismissed the role of a vital force in human biology. The new science of epigenetics, in conjunction with quantum physics, has precipitated a scientific renaissance that fully recognizes the influence of vitalism in controlling behavior and health.
1.5 Hour Philosophy
Learning Objectives
A) Participants will be able to describe current science that reveals how perception of environmental signals controls behavior and gene expression - the science of epigenetics.
B) Participants will describe how quantum mechanical energy fields, including thought, control the nervous system and shape behavior.
C) Participants will understand the Growth-Protection switching mechanism in humans: Stress and the role of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis.
