Through my energy medicine training, I have learned to use energy testing techniques to assess patients' function. From my testing results, I have come to believe that many of my patients have difficulty with detoxification beyond the typical issues with methylation due to single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).

They also struggle with inadequate metabolic pathways involving glutathione and/or metallothionein. Glutathione helps with the detoxification of chemicals such as medications and metallothionein helps with the detoxification of heavy metals.

Imagine how difficult it would be not to be able to detoxify these toxins at the necessary rates. Over time, these toxins accumulate and overwhelm the ability of the body to handle normal, daily amounts of toxins.

Typically as toxins increase, anxiety symptoms increase as well. However, it's difficult to remove toxins using supplements without increasing negative side effects such as experiencing even more anxiety. Because of this, I turned to energy medicine for additional help.

This podcast records a session where I am using energy medicine to try to strengthen the glutathione and metallothionein systems and to help the patient, Cindy, recover from being injected with Abilify, an antipsychotic medication.

Almost all psychiatric medications are xenobiotics, foreign substances, that require detoxification to clear them properly from the body. Unfortunately, not all patients have what it takes to do so properly.

This podcast records Cindy's energy healing process to benefit others. Cindy was happy to have the opportunity to share how the energy healing felt and also her experience after being injected with Abilify.

I hope that you will be able to share this podcast with those who experience anxiety, because they may also have underlying problems with detoxification. I hope this recording will benefit those who might be open to a free source of healing energy.

Building well-being from the thought up may be a novel idea, but as a holistic clinician, I've found the approach very versatile and helpful--not just in terms of psychotherapeutic benefits but as a way to support the physical healing process.

This podcast provides a tool to help those whose endocannabinoid system (ECS) had been undermined by repeated exposure to marijuana or CBD/THC compounds. None of these products provide bioidentical cannabinoids and may undermine the body's production of innate endocannabinoids and initiate the immune system's hypersensitivity (inflammatory reaction) to exogenous cannabinoids and the ECS.

If the ECS is damaged, people may experience paranoia, delusions, and insomnia. If the person then stops using marijuana or CBD/THC abruptly, withdrawals may also lead to paranoia, delusions, and insomnia as well.

This situation often ends with a prescription for an antipsychotic medication to resolve marijuana-induced psychosis.

To assist those who become psychotic from exposure to marijuana, I've had success using energy medicine techniques, which use thoughts to connect to an idealized source of energy and direct them through intentions and words to facilitate specific healing processes. As the ECS recovers, the antipsychotic medication can be gradually and safely lowered (with nutritional supplement support).

This recording directs your thoughts and intentions for the specific purpose of healing the ECS. I am using it to help my patients in my practice to lower their antipsychotic medications that were a necessary treatment for marijuana-induced/withdrawal psychosis. I hope you'll find it helpful or share it with someone you hope might benefit from it.

Energy medicine can be applied to a wide variety of problems. However, instead of using a pill or machine, energy medicine uses focus, thoughts, intentions, words, and imagery to resolve difficult problems. Its healing potential is supported by true beliefs, receptivity, and gratitude.

In this podcast, I share a short recording of an energy-healing session aimed at resolving cigarette addiction. You may focus on other addictive substances you wish to resolve as the recording progresses. 

During the clinical session, the patient reported a lot of tearing, yawning, and some chest discomfort which may accompany the energy-healing process. I also yawned and teared up during energy work which are signs to me that shifts are happening during the energy work. To my patients and me, these subtle signs suggest that the intentions are shifting biology as well as energy.

If you notice some physical reactions to the recording, don't worry, it may be a sign that your intentions and thoughts are helping you shift things at the energy level. Since everything is made of energy, these healing thoughts will have a ripple effect on your mental, emotional, physical, social, and spiritual life.

Warning: be careful and attentive to evolving biochemical changes from your intentions/energy work. It may cause you to become more sensitive to the addictive substances and their negative side effects. These negative side effects can result in significant harm to you if they include decreased respiratory function, increased excitability, or blocking of essential biochemical functions.

On the other hand, you may notice an easier process of coming off these addictive substances.

Give it a try! I hope that you'll find this meditation tool helpful.

Interview with Author Russell Kramer on his podcast, Visitors at the Temple.
Russell Kramer, the new author of Hocus Focus: Coming of Age With ADD and Its Medicines, interviews me on his podcast, Visitors at the Temple, about my experiences with using Zoloft and withdrawal from it. I had the honor of writing the forward for his insightful and courageous book. In this podcast, we share intimate details about how the use of psychiatric medication influenced and changed us. Also, we reflect on life's unexpected turns and discuss our creative aspirations.

Generally, I don't like to open up and share intimate details about my experiences and perspectives. I was taught to be extremely private as part of my psychiatric training. But in this podcast, through Russell Kramer's questions and a cordial, relaxed setting, I reveal some of the toughest moments in my life. Times that I joke about as "my year-long near-death experience--without the light at the end of the tunnel." Times when my life disintegrated and needed reintegration for me to survive. Times that profoundly altered the trajectory and focus of my life--for my good.

Since my presentation of Empower Energy Technique (EET) on June 4, 2023 during the ACEP conference, I've been curious about how well EET has been working out for them.

I've heard from several skilled energy medicine practitioners who began applying EET in their practices. One of them who emailed me about his use of EET is Mark Bottinick, LCSW, who has been using energy medicine techniques since the 1990s and was the first person who taught me Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).

He's been using EET with great success and came on my podcast to talk about some of his positive experiences with EET. We also explore EET's limitations and how to use it most productively.

Find out more when you listen to this podcast!

Have a great week!

Sometimes psychiatrists reach for psychiatric medications to treat people who are socially different and struggling with their place in the world. When in kindergarten, Kiki tested at the college level. However, she was pressured to socialize and not skip any grades. She also struggled with Autism spectrum disorder and identified as being queer. Growing up in a conservative Christian community made it even more difficult for her to fit in.

Between 1996 to 2009, Kiki was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and prescribed 49 different medications, sometimes taking nine at a time. She was able to wean off these medications before her holistic treatment with Dr. Lee in 2020.

Over the past three years, Kiki has worked with Dr. Lee on two separate occasions to continue her healing process. Kiki shares her challenges with belonging in the world and creating her way in life. How did she heal along the way and where is she headed? Listen to her amazing journey as she evolves from stressful isolation to finding her groove in life.
