Summary

"It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society" -J. Krishnamurti

"Medical science has made such tremendous progress that there is hardly a healthy human left." -Aldous Huxley

"All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident." -Arthur Schopenhauer

IN THE INTRO:

  • Remembering that radical literally means “back to the root"- what we consider today to be radical health care is actually just our ancestral human biological inheritance

IN THE INTERVIEW:

  • How Dr. Brogan’s own diagnosis, and sitting with the cognitive dissonance that came with it, turned what she had been taught about health and healing on its head
  • Searching for the science that we aren’t given
  • It’s not so much information wars as competing paradigms that are causing the divisions in modern medicine
  • Embracing complexity and critical thinking
  • Psychiatric pharmaceuticals are the most habit-forming substances on the planet (Dr. Brogan hasn’t written a prescription since 2010)
  • Walking away from labels and tapering off psych meds
  • How a diagnosis can act as a hex, or as an opening into a more authentic connection to self
  • The dehumanizing that has to happen when medicine is practiced at scale
  • Suffering ends where meaning begins
  • How the Evolutionary Mismatch between our ancestral human bodies and our modern lives underlies so many physical and mental disorders
  • We have tremendous capacity to change our gene expression
  • Precision and bioindividual (the future of!) medicine v vaccine mandates (everyone gets the same 72 highly complex and inherently risky injections, no matter their individual health profiles)
  • How two of Dr. Brogan’s patients having 2nd trimester stillbirths after receiving the flu shot sent her down the path of 10,000 hours of vaccine research
  • The germ warfare paradigm is the ultimate expression of a control, fear-based paradigm of medicine
  • Creating the conditions that allow people to heal themselves
  • Kelly’s personal experience transforming motherline pain and trauma, and raising her daughters to report only to themselves

IN THE OUTRO:

  • The conversation they are trying to silence is the very conversation we need to be having; the information they are trying to censor is the exact information you need to know
  • The cultural cognitive dissonance wherein we live in a society that censors the hashtag #vaccineinjury while simultaneously paying out $4,182,078,646 through the government run national Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (as of August 2019, link below)
  • Google and social media search censorship
  • Some great accounts, websites, and one podcast for real vaccine information
  • How censorship and vaccine mandates will backfire on the Pharmaceutical industry

It's all meaningful.

I am your host Amber Magnolia Hill and this is episode 57

0:34.0

At the beginning here, I'm wanting to define a word for you.

0:39.0

This definition has become so central, so foundational to the work that I do. So that's the word

0:47.4

radical. Radical is an adjective that has definitely been applied to Kelly Brogan. It's been applied to me as well.

0:58.0

And you know, we tend to think of it as subversive outside the mainstream, revolutionary maybe. I mean radical, you know what it means.

1:11.1

So the root of this word, I'm looking at etymology online right now, late 14th century in a

1:18.6

medieval philosophical sense from late Latin radicalis of or having roots from Latin radix root meaning

1:31.0

going to the origin essential and some of you might be familiar with

1:35.8

radical as spelled R-A-C-L-E instead of R-A-C-I-C-A-L, that LE spelling literally means root, like the root of a plant.

1:49.2

So what we tend to call or think of as radical today

1:53.4

actually means getting back to the root.

1:56.8

You know, so eating organic food,

1:59.6

having your baby at home

2:01.6

without any medication, breastfeeding, perhaps not vaccinating.

2:08.4

We think of these as radical and yeah they are.

2:11.7

They're going back to the root of humanity to how our species lived for over 99.9% of our history as Homo sapiens on the earth. So just keep that in mind. When you hear

2:27.2
