Summary

Themes: Quantum Philosophy, Medicine, Health Freedom, Harmony, Biology, Nature, Culture, Anthroposophy Summary: Our inherent connection to the natural world is in a state of disharmony and Dr. Nathan Riley, who refers to himself as a recovering OB/GYN, joins us in this episode to talk about his experiences practicing within the constructs of the Western medical model, why he left, and how he pushes back against the template approach to human health + standardized medical intervention. Dr. Riley treats the whole being in order to facilitate an elevated, expansive, and embodied life (and a good death). Discover: The problem with the Western medical model's one-size-fits-all, template approach. Birthing practices, medical convenience, and coercion in “corporate” medicine. Death, rebirth, and ancient wisdom. Embracing the beauty of our natural death experience. Re-harmonizing with + reconnecting to the natural world.

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to the Mark Rose podcast.
0:10.0	I've been really excited to share this conversation with you with Dr. Nathan Riley, who is an MD, an OBGYN, and also works in palliative care. And I thought what an interesting intersection
0:23.8	of being able to be there when life is being welcomed in and also being there when life is
0:31.0	being sort of ushered or observed on its way, leaving the physical plane. And I've always, you know, having worked in the
0:40.0	medical industry for so long, I've always had a really, a big fascination with the medical
0:45.0	side of things, the physiological side of birth and death. And also from a psychological perspective,
0:51.0	not only our aversion to the conversations about death, but also our aversions to
0:55.8	just the mystical, what happens when we pass, and where do we come from when we are brought
1:00.7	into this portal? And through the portal of such a divine being, the woman, right? Like this
1:07.2	act of this sacred portal and in a lot of ways I'm also curious and concerned and
1:16.0	think about the industrialization of birth and the removal of the sacred from that process.
1:24.8	I was very excited to speak with Dr. Nathan Riley because his perspective
1:30.7	is so beautiful, this intersection of all these things, but also looking at it from a holistic
1:36.5	perspective. And I was reading his about page on his website, and I just had to share it because the
1:43.1	language of it is just, it is just powerful. At beloved
1:47.3	holistics, we envision a world in which birthing people are worshipped as the sacred
1:52.3	convergence point of the physical, etheric, astral, and other subtle bodies. We envision
1:58.8	conception, birth, and death as the natural consequence of love,
2:02.7	the creative force of the universe, which is a direct experience with the divine. In this world,
2:08.0	we thrive through our co-creation with soil, life, planet, and the cosmos. We envision a world
2:13.4	that honors humans as embodiments of the highest insight and intuition through which they are free to make
2:19.1	autonomous informed choices pertaining to body, spirit, and soul. Yes, more of that, please. So let's hop
