Heather and Vanessa interview Judyann McNamara, DHom, CCH, ND, ex-quantum physicist/biologist researcher, and homeopath-founder of the MICH Academy for Holism and Classical Homeopathy. 

Fascinated by life and living processes, consciousness and spirituality, but disappointed with the incomplete answers biology and medicine provided, Judyann sought to understand the energetic dimension emerging from consciousness that underlies our biology. As neither biophysics nor quantum biology were recognized disciplines in 1976, Judyann did both as separate disciplines and continued in physics research. In 1980 she witnessed the traces left on detectors by biophotons emitted by living cells. This led to studying and being qualified in subtle energy fields, Reiki, Cranial Sacral Therapy, Chinese Medicine, Homeopathy, Naturopathy and Qigong.

Holism, the metaphysical container for Quantum Biology provided the container for all the practices.  Recognizing how essential the paradigm shift from mechanism to holism is for the healing of humanity, she founded the International Association of Holistic Professionals.  The IAHP’s Friday morning experiential workshops explored healing presence and our challenging cases through the process of Dialog (a la David Bohm) and inquiry. The successes of the cases dialogued, and those of her clinical practice inspired a group of therapists to want to share and teach how to naturally align with Holism as the Force of creation and evolution,  with homeopathy as its central therapy in 2006. 

For the last 20 years, the MICH Academy for Holism and Classical Homeopathy has changed the lives of thousands of people through its the international 4 year fully accredited apprenticeship practitioner program based on one on one mentorships through live casetaking practice and continues to grow stronger. 

Judyann continues to keep a toe in research by collaborating with Drs Martin Picard and Nirosha Murugan. Martin and Judyann developed the ground-breaking Energy Resistance Principle during our dialog sessions last year.  Picard's upcoming book Energy has been designed to help readers make the important paradigm shift from the chemical-mechanical model of health to one that is based on Energy and the human experience. 

Judyann describes mitochondria as quantum organelles operating at the boundary between the material and immaterial—connecting us to the quantum field while transforming captured light into energy. We explore why understanding health may require us to move beyond a purely mechanistic view of the body and toward a truly holistic one.

We dive into:

✨ Why mitochondria may be understood as a bridge between the material and immaterial

✨ The connection between mitochondria, consciousness, and quantum fields

✨ How homeopathic remedies communicate information through energetic signatures

✨ Why the experience of a symptom may be more important than simply naming the symptom

✨ How the default mode network, overthinking, anxiety, and living in our stories can consume enormous amounts of energy

✨ Why presence, nature, connection, and heart intelligence may support mitochondrial health

✨ Disease as a call toward greater wholeness

✨ Moving beyond dualistic thinking and learning to hold opposing experiences as interconnected polarities

✨ Why some people become stuck in victim/perpetrator narratives and how shifting perspective requires energy

✨ The idea of experiencing ourselves as events rather than objects or nouns

✨ How different homeopathic modalities—from remedies and complexes to flower essences and cell salts—can work across different energetic levels

✨ Sensitivity, mitochondrial information processing, and why some people respond so strongly to both disease and remedies

✨ Potency, information, entropy, and what happens when too much information is introduced at once

✨ And how developing greater awareness of our body's signals can help us become active participants in our own healing

One of our favorite themes from this conversation is the idea that suffering itself can be understood as a longing for wholeness—and that healing may involve moving beyond the belief that we are separate from ourselves, each other, nature, and the greater whole.

This is a deep conversation that bridges homeopathy, quantum biology, consciousness, and the human experience in a really fascinating way.

In this episode of The Quantum Health Connection Podcast, Vanessa and Heather welcome Tina of Carrots & Cake to talk about her journey with ulcerative colitis, functional nutrition, and the often-overlooked impact of under-eating and overtraining.

Tina shares her story of being diagnosed with ulcerative colitis in 2011 and how her search for answers eventually led her to functional diagnostic nutrition and coaching. She also discusses how changing her mindset around chronic illness became an important part of her own healing journey.

We dive into why so many women—especially in their 40s and 50s—struggle with chronic under-eating, excessive exercise, perfectionism, and fear of gaining weight. Tina explains how consistently eating enough food and supporting muscle and metabolism can be foundational to better health.

We also discuss:

Under-eating, overtraining, and metabolic health

Muscle loss, fatigue, thyroid issues, and nutrient deficiencies

The importance of consistent meals and breakfast

Reverse dieting and learning to eat more

Perimenopause and changing nutritional needs

GLP-1s and peptides—and why foundational nutrition matters

Protein, strength training, and preserving muscle

Perfectionism and the emotional side of healing

Breaking free from diet culture

Tina's DRESS approach: Diet, Rest, Exercise, Stress Reduction & Supplementation

Tina's coaching programs, including Fit and Fueled and Stacked

This is an important conversation about moving away from restriction and punishment and toward adequate nourishment, strength, sustainability, and a healthier relationship with food.

Enjoy this enlightening episode!

In Part 2 of our Agree or Disagree series, Vanessa and Heather are back with another round of health topics that challenge the conventional wisdom.

Are calories really all that matters for weight loss? Are carbohydrates bad for women? Does fruit make us sick? Can you actually take too many supplements? And is more testing always better?

Vanessa and Heather unpack these questions from their own experiences and perspectives, exploring the bigger picture of health—including circadian rhythm, stress, sleep, hormones, mitochondrial health, nutrient quality, and emotional healing.

They also get personal, with Vanessa sharing how increasing her carbohydrate intake dramatically changed her energy, hormones, and libido after years of chronic illness and under-eating.

In this episode, they discuss:

Calories and weight loss: Why a calorie deficit isn't the whole story

How circadian rhythm, stress, sleep, hormones, and mitochondrial health can influence metabolism

Whether tracking macros is helpful—or potentially harmful—for different people

Why Vanessa believes adequate carbohydrates are especially important for women's health

The relationship between carbohydrates, libido, hormones, energy, and metabolic health

Heather's experiences with keto and carnivore diets

Why fruit isn't the enemy and how seasonal, whole-food eating can change the conversation around sugar

Seasonal eating and choosing foods that make sense for the time of year

Why more supplements don't necessarily mean better health

Targeted support vs. taking a long list of supplements “just in case”

Vanessa's perspective on homeopathy and tissue salts as energetic medicines rather than supplements

Why physical and emotional healing are interconnected

Why we agree that stress management may be even more important than nutrition

The importance of morning sunlight for circadian rhythm and overall health

Our skepticism around excessive testing and the idea that we always need more data

How social media can fuel fear, comparison, anxiety, and unrealistic expectations

Why individualized health strategies are more valuable than one-size-fits-all protocols

As always, this isn't about telling you what you should do. It's about questioning the health rules we've been handed, looking at the whole person, and figuring out what actually makes sense for you.

If you enjoyed Part 2, let us know what topics you'd like us to tackle in Part 3 of Agree or Disagree!

We are excited to bring you this episode with Jason Christoff, a mind control researcher. You may be thinking, "what does mind control have to do with health?", or "I'm definitely not under mind control!".

Well, we invite you to listen to this extremely important episode, and then let us know if your opinions have changed! Mind control leads us to unwittingly self-sabotage, and Jason is an expert in teaching how to recognize and mitigate the negative impact of this on our health. 

Jason has studied mind control for many years, and he has spoken on mind control to the US Senate as well as to the European, Japanese and Romanian Parliaments. Jason also wrote and directed a free and excellent documentary,  Planet Mind Control, that clearly shows how the ruling group weaponizes mind control against the general public constantly. You can watch Jason's documentary for free at www.planetmindcontrol.com (we dare you!).

What if some of the choices you make every day—what you eat, what you believe, what you consume, and even how you respond to fear—aren’t entirely your own?

Jason was a former fitness club owner and health educator who became deeply interested in the ways media, repetition, group dynamics, and subconscious programming can influence human behavior. He shares his personal journey of awakening to these ideas, beginning with questions about conventional nutrition guidelines and eventually leading him to study kinesiology, human behavior, and group dynamics. He explains how he began recognizing patterns in his own body and why he describes it as a kind of “walking lie detector”—responding differently when he encountered information he felt was true versus information that conflicted with his instincts.

From food and health recommendations to movies, television, advertising, social expectations, and fear-based messaging, Jason challenges listeners to become more aware of what they are repeatedly exposing themselves to.

In this episode, we explore:

• How repetitive information can influence the subconscious mind
• The powerful role of group dynamics and tribal affiliation in shaping behavior
• Why stepping outside the “average” can sometimes create subconscious resistance
• The relationship between individuality, maturation, and painful life experiences
• How social pressure can influence our choices around food, alcohol, caffeine, and lifestyle
• The potential physiological and spiritual effects of living in an environment filled with fear and negative messaging
• How media can normalize behaviors and beliefs through repetition
• What the COVID era revealed about fear, programming, and collective compliance
• Jason’s perspective on conspiracy theories and why some people instinctively reject information that challenges their existing worldview
• The importance of becoming conscious of what we allow into our mental and physical environment
• How intentionally surrounding yourself with positive, uplifting, and repetitive content can help reinforce the life you want to create
• The importance of individuation—learning to think, choose, and live independently of the pressure of the group
• Why awareness doesn't require perfection and why progress is the goal
• Becoming Conscious of Your Environment

One of the biggest takeaways from this conversation is the importance of paying attention to what you repeatedly consume. Just as we think about the quality of the food we put into our bodies, Jason encourages listeners to consider the quality of the information, images, entertainment, conversations, and messages we repeatedly expose ourselves to.

In this episode, Heather and Vanessa put their opinions on the table and ask: Do we actually agree?

Breakfast. Vitamin D. Detoxes. Coffee. Sunscreen. Raw milk. Parasite cleanses. Homeopathy. And even the idea that healing is supposed to be hard.

We don’t see everything the same way which is exactly what makes this conversation so interesting.

We talk about why our beliefs around health need to be allowed to evolve, why what works for one person may not work for another, and why supplements, research, and outside advice can never completely replace learning to understand your own body.

We also dive into the deeper side of healing: stress; emotions; spirituality; gratitude; trusting yourself; and recognizing that true health is about so much more than what you take.

Because healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. And you don’t have to blindly follow someone else’s rules to get healthier.

🎙 Listen to the episode and let us know what do YOU agree or disagree with!

This week on the podcast, Heather and Vanessa are joined by Miro Posavec, founder of Bestmade Natural Products, for a fascinating conversation about homeopathy, cell salts, remedy manufacturing, food, and what it really means to look at the whole person.

Miro’s journey into homeopathy began with his own son’s health, and eventually led him from practicing classical homeopathy to building a homeopathic pharmacy that has grown from shipping a single box of remedies in 2004 to working with suppliers and customers around the world.

We talk about:

✨ Miro’s journey into classical homeopathy and why he eventually left practice

✨ How Bestmade Natural Products grew over the last 20+ years

✨ Cell salts—what they are, how they’re made, and how Miro uses them

✨ Why he believes diet and obstacles to cure need to be addressed alongside remedies

✨ Classical remedies vs. newer, less-proven remedies

✨ Combination remedies and when Miro finds them useful

✨ His experience with remedy provings, and one particularly wild proving experience that changed his understanding of empathy and intuition

✨ Favorite remedies, flower essences, and some fascinating cases from his years of practice

✨ The importance of traditional food practices and what we’ve lost in modern life

✨ Regulatory challenges facing homeopathy

✨ His new 120-remedy kit and the Fast Remedy Picker software

✨ And so much more!

I especially loved hearing Miro’s perspective as someone who has spent decades not only studying and practicing homeopathy, but actually manufacturing remedies and seeing how they perform in the real world with thousands of customers.

This one is packed with stories, experience, opinions, and plenty to think about!

Wren Lloyd joins the Quantum Health Connection podcast for a wide-ranging conversation about the path from being called to homeopathy to becoming a confident, supported practitioner. She traces the experiences that led her from Montessori education and self-study into clinical practice, practice-building mentorship, international service, and the creation of the Inspired School of Homeopathic Practice.

The discussion moves beyond remedies into the inner life of the practitioner. Wren explains how The Three Principles inform her approach to self-responsibility, perception, client care, trauma narratives, and professional resilience. Wren also shares about her model of apprenticeship-based education, about building community, ethical niche marketing, homeopathic detox, and the importance of helping graduates build viable practices.

In this episode:

• The early experience that first placed homeopathy on Wren’s radar
• How education, motherhood, self-study, and formal training shaped her professional path
• Why many graduates know how to do homeopathy but do not yet know how to be practicing homeopaths
• The Inspired School’s apprenticeship model, live cases, small cohorts, and practice-building emphasis
• Using a defined niche to communicate clearly without limiting who a practitioner can serve
• The role of practitioner self-awareness and The Three Principles in client care
• Creating supportive professional communities and reducing post-graduation isolation
• Wren’s evolution from strictly classical training toward a broader clinical toolkit, including detox approaches
• A nuanced discussion of thought, trauma, resilience, insight, and the meanings attached to experience

In Part 2 of our conversation with Jonathan Jarecki, we move beyond the basic advice to “get more sunlight” and dive deeply into the emerging science of how light interacts with our mitochondria, cellular water, circulation, and circadian biology.

Jonathan begins by challenging the familiar explanation that ATP is simply the “energy currency” of the cell. Drawing from the work of researchers such as Gilbert Ling and Gerald Pollack, he explores another possibility: ATP may play a crucial role in organizing water and building exclusion-zone—or EZ—water inside the body.

We then examine how red and near-infrared light may support mitochondrial function. Jonathan explains proposed mechanisms involving cytochrome c oxidase, ATP synthase, electron flow through the mitochondrial electron transport chain, nitric oxide, and the production of subcellular melatonin. He also discusses why the absence of infrared light—and the abundance of isolated blue light—in modern indoor environments may place additional stress on our mitochondria.

The conversation also takes an honest look at red-light therapy devices. Are high-intensity panels always better, or could the lower intensity and balanced spectrum of natural sunlight be more biologically appropriate? Jonathan shares his concerns about extremely powerful devices, explains how distance can reduce intensity, and discusses simple alternatives such as incandescent bulbs and reflected near-infrared light.

We also explore the often-demonized ultraviolet portion of sunlight. Jonathan discusses vitamin D as a possible marker of sun exposure rather than the sole reason sunlight is associated with better health outcomes. He explains how UVA stimulates nitric oxide release, why that matters for blood pressure and circulation, and what research suggests about regular sun exposure, melanoma mortality, cardiovascular health, and other cancers.

Finally, Jonathan offers realistic ways to create a more light-supportive lifestyle even if you work indoors or are not ready for direct midday sun.

In this episode, we discuss:

• What mitochondria do and why they are essential to nearly every cell in the body
• Whether ATP is truly the body’s cellular energy currency
• Gilbert Ling’s ideas about ATP and cellular water
• Gerald Pollack’s research into exclusion-zone water
• How infrared light may affect electron flow and ATP production
• Cytochrome c oxidase, ATP synthase and the mitochondrial membrane potential
• How near-infrared light penetrates deeply into the body
• Why trees and green spaces create infrared-rich environments
• Whether infrared light can penetrate clothing
• Natural fibers versus synthetic fabrics
• The mitochondrial effects of isolated blue light
• Subcellular melatonin and the body’s antioxidant defenses
• Red-light therapy panels versus natural sunlight
• Why more intensity may not always produce better results
• Incandescent bulbs as a simple source of red and infrared light
• Why vitamin D supplements do not fully reproduce sunlight exposure
• UVA, nitric oxide, blood pressure and cardiovascular health
• The difference between chronic, regular sun exposure and intermittent burning
• Sun exposure, melanoma mortality and other cancer risks
• Why reductionist studies may fail to capture the full effects of sunlight
• Morning light and nighttime darkness as the foundations of circadian health
• Practical ways to improve your light environment at home and work

The science may be complex, but the central message is beautifully simple: our bodies developed in relationship with the full spectrum of natural light. Improving that relationship does not have to involve an expensive device or a complete lifestyle overhaul. It can begin with stepping outside in the morning, welcoming more natural light into the day, and allowing true darkness to return at night.
