In this deeply moving episode of the Conscious Fertility Podcast, Dr. Paul Dieppe shares his remarkable journey from conventional medicine into the world of healing, consciousness, and spiritual care. 

A respected academic and rheumatologist, Dr. Dieppe recounts transformative experiences—including surviving as a hostage and spontaneous healing—that reshaped his understanding of what it truly means to heal. We explore how love, compassion, and presence may be the most potent medicines of all.

Key takeaways:

• Healing is more than curing physical symptoms—it's about integration of mind, body, and spirit.
• Conscious intention, compassion, and caring presence can activate the body’s innate healing capacity.
• Near-death and noetic experiences challenged and redefined Paul’s materialist worldview.
• Western medicine and alternative healing are not enemies—they’re complementary tools.
• Love, not logic, is often the driving force behind true healing.
