Nathan Crane
Thank you. I appreciate you. This is going to be a great conversation because I just love spending time with you, man. You’ve got such a wealth of knowledge yourself and the work you do helping people heal from all kinds of chronic diseases, including cancer. I learn something every time we get together, and I always have a good time. We laugh, we smile, and we get to help people.
Michael Karlfeldt, ND, PhD
At the end of the day, that’s the best medicine right there. Yes. Looking at obviously cancer as a riddle we are all trying to solve, I think a lot of times we always look ahead and not learn from what we’ve known in the past, and we become kind of wrapped up in our heads, thinking that we have to be brighter than we are and letting go of things that are foundational in order to be able to understand how to address this complex disorder that is becoming a pandemic. Share with me a little bit. Energy medicine is something that you are hugely into. Tell me a little bit about that and the landscape for people to understand what that is.
Nathan Crane
Yes, let’s give a little context. for people to realize what kind of pandemic we’re actually in right now. In 1905, cancer was believed to affect about 5% of people, compared to less than 2% in 1950. That was about 10% and was raised to 10%. Today, certainly in the West and in many civilized countries, you know what we would call first-world modernized technocratic countries. We see cancer in almost 50% of people. It went from almost nobody having cancer as a rare disease to everybody knowing somebody who has cancer. If you’re in a room of ten people, half of those people are likely to become diagnosed. It is earlier and earlier; it used to be at 60, 70, and 80 years old, and now it is the number one killer and the number one cause of death by disease in children under 19 and children 50 years old. Children never even had cancer. Now they’re dying by the tens of thousands every year. It’s insane. Hundreds of thousands of people are dying. Millions of people are actually dying around the world from cancer every single year. The most important part is that cancer is primarily preventable. It’s a preventable, lifestyle-related metabolic disease. That is the big thing here. So number one is to look at any kind of breakthrough solution for cancer, whether you have cancer and you’re tuning in and you’re looking for, Hey, what can I do? What changes can I make? What can I implement? That is backed by science and can actually help my body heal itself. Or maybe your doctor, your health care professional, or your coach is trying to help your patients improve their quality of life and extend their lifespan, or you’re just trying to learn for yourself or for a family member. Men who have been told it runs in my family—I just talked to someone this morning. She said I was actually getting a blood draw, which is an important thing to do from time to time. Just check where you’re at with your own biomarkers and see if your metabolic biomarkers are on track for health, or maybe they’re declining, and you should pay attention to that.
The nurse told me that my whole family had cancer, so we started talking, and I talked about diet, lifestyle, energy, and all these things. There’s only so much you can share with someone in five minutes. But she left feeling inspired and saying, “Hey, this is something that I need to look further into.” That is the important part: continue watching these kinds of interviews, learning from them, and owning this whole summit because you can spend your time going through it. That is what I did. I started over a decade ago, learning from hundreds of top cancer experts, cancer researchers, cancer conquers, and survivors. Through that journey, it led me down this interesting path of understanding what cancer is and what actually causes it. That is important. Then, number two, how can we empower our bodies, specifically our own immune systems, to fight against cancer? Because cancer is not something you get. It’s not something that is given to you. It’s very rarely hereditary. We even know that cancer.gov says less than 5% of cancers are hereditary. If you talk to an average geneticist, they’ll tell you that less than 1% of cancer is hereditary. We know that if you have the BRCA1 gene, 50% of the women with the BRCA1 gene never get cancer.
We know genes don’t cause cancer. We know that it is not primarily genetic; in fact, it is primarily diet and lifestyle. Even according to the latest research in Nature, a big scientific publication that says most cancer and most chronic diseases, for that matter, are lifestyle-related, today, in my book that you can get for free at my website, in my master classes and programs, and a lot of the work you do, Dr. Karlfeldt, we talk about diet, we talk about nutrition, we talk about supplementation, we talk about sun, and we talk about sleep. We talk about a lot of these other diet and lifestyle factors that we know can help improve your body’s ability to fight against cancer. Because if your focus is to turn on your cancer-fighting mechanisms in your body, we need to focus on the immune system, and we need to focus on reducing chronic inflammation. But what a lot of people don’t know anything about and where my research has led me has been very interesting and fascinating to me over the years, as deep down this path of energy, medicine, and energy healing, which now is well understood, even though it is a multi-thousand-year-old practice and teaching and understanding. There are a lot of terms for it now, bio-regulatory medicine and therapy; there’s PMF; there are all kinds of therapies that have come out of understanding that we are energetic beings and that every cell in our body, including cancer cells and including the mitochondria inside the cancer cell, actually emanates a frequency, a magnetism, and an energy that determines the health of that cell. That’s the fascinating thing. so we can dive into some of that research and then also what we can do about it, because what’s cool is that when you understand the deeper, energetic mechanisms of the body, you now have a free, empowering resource within yourself to actually regulate the cell’s resonance, the energetic field that your cells emit, and you have within you right now the ability to turn on apoptosis, cancer, and cell death. This is it, and I’ll share some incredible science that shows you how to do this. That has also been shown in vitro in petri dishes, literally killing cancer cells. By the energy that we turn on within ourselves, as well as weakening the cell membrane around the cancer cell and bursting it. Then the nutrients that we put in our body and the natural anti-inflammatories are curcumins, and then the cancer-fighting nutrients in the sulforaphane from the green vegetables go into the bloodstream, where they can actually enter those cancer cells and help kill the cancer cells. This is fascinating stuff for a dive. Did you want me to just give you a chance? Maybe I have questions for you.
Michael Karlfeldt, ND, PhD
What’s so cool about you is that with all the work that you’ve done, like you mentioned, you’ve interviewed hundreds of cancer survivors and doctors. That was just kind of right in the beginning. I am sure we’re talking about thousands now because you’re somebody who’s on the cutting edge of this type of therapy. The cool thing is that you come with all that knowledge and all that experience, even though you are not a medical doctor or maybe an oncologist or anything, but you get so much more because you’re not stuck in that one box, just doing that one thing. You have that breadth of knowledge and understanding just based on all that information, light, energy, and medicine. To me, that is the frontier. I would say that that is the past history of energy, and it is the frontier of medicine. That’s where we need to go. As we were understanding who we are and the connection to the universe, that connection to each other, at the end of the day, like you mentioned, yes, we see these physical forms, but they’re not physical. If you go down into particles, you have these studies where you shoot electrons through two slits, and you recognize that, depending on how you look at those particles, you measure them as a wave, which means they are non-physical. You measure it as a physical component. When we look at cancer, we think of it as physical, but it is not; our bodies aren’t physical. So I am excited to kind of hear what the new is. Like, with what you’re talking about, disrupting the cell wall membrane, when you have a diseased cell wall membrane, it can handle all that energy and that frequency and then disrupt, and then you can kind of do a lot of things. That’s a challenge with a lot of medication and supplements. It can’t enter the cancer to have that therapeutic effect. To be able to bring these types of therapies on board to maximize care is what I call elegant medicine.
Nathan Crane
I love elegant medicine. That’s the first concept we need to accept before we can even continue, and you just said it. Humans are energetic beings, and this is not some belief system. It’s proven by science. We have measurable electrical and magnetic fields that resonate from our body and from every single cell. For instance, the physical heart uses an electrical field that can be measured through an electrocardiogram to regulate its beat. MRI’s. What’s MRI’s? Magnetic resonance imaging, it scans the body’s magnetic field. Then, through that, that’s how it produces the tissues to show you, oh, you’ve got a tear in your rotator cuff tendon, your supraspinatus, or whatever that MRI is looking at. It’s literally scanning the magnetic field of your body and the cells in your tissues to produce images. We know it is not people seeing them as some woo-woo thing, say energy, medicine, or whatever. It’s like we’re using it every day in modern science. They’re just not using it to its full potential yet. That’s the exciting part. One of the questions I had was, How did our ancient ancestors figure this stuff out? Because this actually goes back well over 5000 years, which is what was believed. There’s certainly documentation of this kind of self-regulated, energetic healing modality that goes back thousands of years, and some believe it actually goes back even further. But we do have documentation going back thousands of years. We have it going back to the yellow emperor, for example.
The dates aren’t that important. What’s important to understand is that for the past few decades, there’s been a large number of accomplished scientists from leading universities like UCSD, UCLA out of California, Harvard University, big universities, well-respected universities out of China, and some of the top scientists in the world. They have applied modern scientific methods and protocols to investigate the biological, chemical, and physical effects of something called QiGong. If anyone hasn’t heard of QiGong, we’ll talk a little bit about what it is. I’m sure everyone’s heard of Qi, spelled as QI. It’s basically lifeforce energy. That is what it translates to, and we all have it. What we’re measuring in our devices today is what, in ancient practice, they would call Qi. They say that’s your life force energy. Well, we’re measuring it with scientific methodologies today. Whether you call it lifeforce energy, your own body’s energy, or Qi, it doesn’t matter. But what the science has established very clearly is that one Qi physically exists. It’s measurable too. It can interact with and affect matter—physical matter—from molecular to atomic levels, all the way to the smallest level. It can affect the fundamental components of living organisms, from water to sugar to cell membranes. Like we talk about cancer cells, proteins, DNA, and even RNA, it can recognize and optimize genetic properties without adverse effects, which is interesting. It has been shown to induce apoptosis in cancer cells without harming healthy cells, and it can actually be applied in biotechnology and material processing to create chemical reactions. It’s fascinating stuff. So we’ll talk about a few different forms of energy mass.
The main one I want to talk about today is qigong, because qigong is not very familiar in the West, but if you ask anybody who comes from China about qigong, everybody knows about it because it has been a part of the culture for thousands of years. Then it was kind of hidden for a long time. then it had this big reemergence over the past 100 years. It had a big reemergence. A big part of that was because of these kinds of grand master practitioners who became trained in Western science and became trained Western medical doctors, but they studied this ancient form of healing from all the top masters and then combined the science with the ancient methodology so that it could be translated to our modern time. I feel like that’s part of my purpose for now, which is to help people recognize that Qigong—I think you know what yoga was like 100 years ago; probably nobody in Western culture knew about yoga. I’d never heard of it and had no idea what it was. then Yogananda, Paramahansa, Paramahansa Yogananda comes to the United States and starts teaching yoga, and then it expands and more teachers and more now every say the word yoga. Every single person, certainly in the United States and probably in Europe and other countries, has at least heard of it, has at least tried it, or has some understanding of what it is. I feel like we’re at that point right there where hundreds of thousands of people in the US know about qigong, and it is about to become tens of millions at that big breaking point. just because of this, because the science behind it is so fascinating. What’s your idea?
Michael Karlfeldt, ND, PhD
Correct me if I am wrong, but don’t they have hospitals in China where they use qigong as a main treatment for people dealing with cancer, and just by shifting the energy, they are then seeing cancer disappear?
Nathan Crane
A few years ago, I met a master qigong teacher in Santa Fe, where I live, who studied under a Grand Master Peng Ming in China and was the founder of what was called the Medicine Less Hospital in China. They had hundreds of thousands of people go through this hospital where they had no drugs, no medicine, medicine-less, and all they had was qigong. People would live there, and they would practice and learn how to direct the energy towards healing.They went there with just about every major chronic disease on the planet, and they saw a 95% reversal rate for every single disease on the planet. For some people, it happened in short periods of time, and for others, it took months and even years. But then some of the stage four incurable cancers, all these kinds of things, neurodegenerative diseases, Parkinson’s, and, you name it, all these kinds of chronic health conditions—many of which we’re seeing benefit very quickly. others, it just progressively improved over time. The fascinating thing was that there were no drugs or chemotherapy. There was no radiation, no surgery, nothing—just teaching how to regulate and direct our own body’s natural, energetic, healing capacity. It’s within every single one of us.
It is teachable and duplicated through practice. It is easy to learn this stuff, which is cool. But they documented this scientifically, and then this teacher, a master Mingtong Gu, studied in the Master Teacher program, which is why they call him a master teacher. Then he came here to the west over 20 years ago and started teaching qigong. I met him—I don’t know—five, six, or seven years ago. I started practicing with him, working with him, going to the retreats, learning the methodology, the philosophy, and the teaching, and saw a tremendous benefit in my own life in so many ways, including my own health in abundance and well-being, energy, and mental clarity. Then I did. Because I am a documentary filmmaker, I have done multiple documentaries on incredible healing stories that happened. Bianca Molle, who had Parkinson’s disease, says that Parkinson’s is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that basically incapacitates you until you die. It’s a very challenging disease because people go through a lot of pain and suffer from depression because Parkinson’s downregulates your dopamine. Imagine just not having dopamine every day and feeling so terrible all the time, while also your brain is degenerating. She started practicing this qigong, and within months, she developed Parkinson’s. So she had a clinical medical diagnosis of Parkinson’s. She had tremors; she had everything. Within months, Parkinson’s disease was free. She still practices to this day, and she’s still Parkinson’s-free.
Michael Karlfeldt, ND, PhD
Isn’t this cool, though, because you have this is a primary example of where we think that these illnesses are of physical origin, that we have a chemical like dopamine, a neurotransmitter, and the effect? Because you’re deficient in it, you’re then experiencing or exhibiting this type of physical illness, but then recognizing that beyond or prior to this physical manifestation of neurotransmitters and how the brain functions, the energetic quality is the energetic flow of things. By shifting that, we are then shifting how reality manifests, how these particles are produced, how the brain functions, how it signals, and how the immune system works, just by shifting the energy, which is a prior existence before your physical body. These are just prime examples of exactly that; like you’re saying, scientists and physicists know this. Yes. It’s just that the medical profession is just a little slower.
Nathan Crane
A little slower—decades slower. Which is why I feel like we’re getting to that tipping point because this came here over 20 years ago, and it is like, “Hey, we’re starting to reach more people with this, and more people are experiencing the transformation in their health for themselves.” Tom Loeswick is a great example. He had six or seven diagnoses. He was in a wheelchair. He was in a wheelchair because he was in so much pain. He had chronic fatigue. He felt like he was going to die. He had cancer, or he had been on over a dozen medications. He finally turned to qigong, came to this retreat in Santa Fe, and left there feeling, after, I think, one week, so much hope and possibility, more energy and clarity than he had in a long time, and a will and a desire to live when he was giving up, ready on his way out. I met him when I interviewed him, when I interviewed his therapist at the time, and she says, You can see this in the documentary that’s on YouTube. She says,When I asked him, how much do you want to live and how much do you want to go? He says, honestly, it is. I think he said it was 50/50. He’s like, I am 60/40 or 70/30 or something like that, where he had a higher percentage of wanting to die. He was so over the pain and the suffering. I am sure many people can relate to that. Within a short time of practicing every single day, not only did he completely get off all his medications, his cancer went away, his immune system came back online, his chronic pain went away, and all these kinds of issues that he was dealing with, his doctors told him that because he had spinal fusion all the way down to his lower vertebrae, Tommy could never twist again or anything like that. He was a big surfer, so that was depressing. I went out to Northern California in San Francisco, and we were swimming in the freezing cold ocean in the winter together. He was like 30 years younger; his energy, his vitality, his clarity—everything about his whole life—transformed for the better. He’s swimming again, surfing again, and doing all these kinds of things that truly saved his life. They’re just case study after case study of this.
I did another documentary on Otis Wollan, who’s also on YouTube, who also had kidney cancer and liver lesions and had all kinds of issues going on and the same thing: practicing, learning the practices, and learning how to direct the energy. He had a pulmonary embolism. His lungs were collapsing. They were blocked by 80%, with 20% breathing capacity left. There is a chance he was going to die. Through the practice of qigong, he completely recovered his health and improved his relationship with his spouse at the same time, because there’s a beautiful thing that happens as you start diving into this practice, where it becomes not just a health practice but a mind-body spirit and emotional healing practice all at the same time, and he completely reclaimed his health.
The stories go on and on. But I want to share some of the science and then share with people how they can start experiencing this for themselves. If you look at a kind of overview or scientific article on qigong, there’s one called Qigong in Cancer Care Theory and Evidence-Based Practice. You can go read this on PubMed. But what they say is that regular practice of qigong exercise therapy has the potential to improve cancer-related quality of life and is indirectly linked to cancer prevention and survival. They say, “Yes, we need more studies; we need to understand it more.” But what’s cool is that when you start looking into the studies on it, there’s a lot of studies that most scientists don’t even know exist because they haven’t done the deep research on it like I have. Some of those studies, like the one for 2006, are called External Qi of Yan Xin Qigong differentially regulates the Akt and extracellular signal-regulated kinase pathways and is cytotoxic to cancer cells but not to normal cells. Let’s clarify for people real quick what akt is, because that’s important. You know what that is, obviously, but protein kinase B, also known as Akt, is a collective name for a set of three serine/threonine-specific protein kinases that play key roles in multiple cellular processes such as glucose metabolism, apoptosis, which is cell death, and cell proliferation. We know cancer cells proliferate at rapid speeds, and we need to reduce that transcription and cell migration.
What they were able to show was that it regulates these pathways and kills cancer cells. In the study, they were sending Qi these lifeforce energies within every single one of us directed to pancreatic cancer cells in a petri dish. They did it for five minutes initially, and they found that it was sent by direct energy. This is the energy within all of us. It caused rapid lysis of the pancreatic cancer cells, which we talked about earlier. That is the cancer cell membrane. It caused it to burst. That’s where we get the nutrients in there because, as you said, many of these things can’t get to that cancer cell membrane. The Qi literally burst the cancer cell membrane and also showed that the Qigong energy caused apoptosis of the cancer cell, which means it helped kill the cancer. There was another study that showed the exact same thing, but in colon cancer, colorectal cancer cells, and it is fascinating stuff because when you look into it and you see that you have a petri dish, you have cancer cells, and all you’re doing and saying all you’re doing, it is a powerful thing to send this intentionally directed Qi life force energy within you to the cancer cells, and those cancer cells are dying. It makes you think, “What the heck is going on? How is this even possible?” It sounds like a science-fiction movie. It sounds like, if you watch Marvel or DC Comics, like any of the Avengers or powers that people have. Powers of a good example would be what those are like martial arts. They are like a martial arts show where they have all these incredible powers.
Michael Karlfeldt, ND, PhD
Are you talking about KungFu?
Nathan Crane
It is like we have these powers within us. We have just been shut off from them for a long time. We have been lied to about it. Maybe they’ve been hidden. We know that it was popular for a long time, and then all of a sudden, nobody knew about it. Something happened, and it gained popularity again over the past 100 years. then guess what happened when that hospital in China was thriving and they had millions of practitioners and thousands and tens of thousands of case studies of healing and all these peaceful qigong practitioners that were getting together every day and practicing qigong and basically healing chronic disease. Guess what the Chinese government did? They put that Grand Master Peng Ming on house arrest, and they shut down the hospital. For whatever reason, the people were becoming too powerful. The government doesn’t want you to have that power. Imagine the potential that you have—the self-healing, self-regulating power within you—to stop disease, to blow up the membranes of cancer cells, and to kill cancer cells within you. You have the healing potential within you to stop disease, increase longevity, and thrive. That is bad for a lot of corporations, greedy corporations that depend on our sickness for their profiteering. It’s bad for people in power who want more power and who don’t like wise, intelligent, powerful, individualized human beings taking control of their own health and not being sick. It’s bad for the people who are greedy and who want more power, but it is good for you and me because we want to thrive. We want to be healthy, we want to stop disease, and we want to do it without paying millions of dollars and destroying our immune systems in the process.
Michael Karlfeldt, ND, PhD
The key is that we become focused and have a little bit of fear as well in regards to the chemicals we are exposed to. We would talk about things like the COVID thing and mRNA and what they do to the body. We’re afraid of different cell phones, cell phone towers, and all of these things. Yes, they are scary, and they’re impacting our health. Yes. But at the end of the day, if we look upon it on a frequency level, on an energetic level, if you then drive your own energy and recognize that power that exists within you, you can take these photos of your body that are currently in photography, or, as you know, I was playing around in the nineties with other technology where we can see this energy field around an individual. You’re now talking about martial arts. When you break a brick, you can actually see that the brick is broken prior to the hand touching it, and it’s the energy out of the hand that’s actually breaking the brick. So recognizing that we have this power that exists within us, we can then neutralize something so that the frequency of these other things, even though they look physical, is not going to impact us. We have that empowerment and realize that we can guide our immune system; we can guide all of that on an energetic level. It becomes very freeing.
Nathan Crane
Yes, exactly. Very freeing. Yes, those things do matter. Toxins do matter. Food does matter. You know that I know that you work with patients every single day. I work with clients every single day. WiFi—that’s another form of energy. Invisible energy. That is what we know is damaging our cells and potentially leading to cancer. It is important to recognize the invisible energies around us, the toxins in the air and water that we breathe, and the toxins you’re breathing from the formaldehyde in your cupboards and kitchen right now. You can’t see them, but they are being brought into your body, and it is potentially damaging mitochondria and leading to cancer. We know we’re surrounded by all this stuff. But at the end of the day, if you can regenerate your cells, if you clean up your diet, clean up your water, clean up your air, and clean up your environment the best you can, we all should do that. I’ve been doing that for over 15 years. It is like practicing what you preach. We should clean all those things up and eat as healthy as we can. I also practice qigong every single morning, and I have for a few years now. Why? Because I know it is so powerful. I know it makes a tremendous difference in my own life, not only because I feel it and I’ve seen the benefits of others, but I’ve also looked at all the science behind it that’s backing it up as well. Is there a qigong form of qigong that’s better than others? Here’s my experience. So far, all qigong is beneficial.
That is the number one thing. then, depending on who you talk to, you may say this Qigong is better than this one. This one’s better than this one. At the end of the day, the best qigong is the one that you practice. That is the most important. Yes. This form of what’s called wisdom, healing, or qigong, which is the one that I primarily have learned from, for Mingtong, from Master Mingtong, is a one that is primarily currently taught through my company Healing Life, which is healing lifting that people can learn about. But we’re bringing qigong masters from all over the world to bring all their methods into one place because it is all beneficial. Qigong is traditional qigong; an ancient qigong is a combination of a variety of multiple healing practices that we know today or that many people know today. But ancient Chinese medicine had already figured out that all these things were incredibly healing. then put them together into a full system of healing and longevity. That is where people aren’t getting the full benefits of qigong today because they’re doing one of these things by itself in a silo. Not getting the complete benefits. A qigong system should include, or at least include, the ones that I’ve seen that have been called the number one medical qigong in all of China: the teachings, the wisdom, the knowledge you need to have, the understanding that the theory and the teachings of life, of emotions, of energy, etc. we need to understand things. Number two, sound healing is important, and it is powerful stuff. The science backs this up.
There is a 2000 study from Finland that observed that stroke patients who were given access to a form of sound healing called cognitive therapy improved their recovery from stroke. Other research showed that patients who suffered from a loss of speech due to a brain injury were able to regain it more quickly. The phenomenon of music as a sound-healing device after stroke is called Kenny Rogers. It’s very well studied for addiction. It’s shown that learning instruments, for example, improves addiction recovery. A study at the University of Wisconsin showed exposure to the right frequencies and tones actually produces dopamine, which is, as we know, a big issue for Parkinson’s, but we also know it is a big issue for depression. We also know it is an essential precursor for upregulating the immune system, which is the number one system in your body. You need full capacity to fight cancer, and their studies go on and on and on about sound. In fact, what’s cool is that Qigong teaches you to use your own voice for sound healing. They did this small study with the five-organ sound system and sound healing from Master Mingtong. They saw it, and they did it with Parkinson’s patients. They actually saw the dopamine levels increase higher than the drugs were giving them. So this wasn’t a published, peer-reviewed study. It was just something they did in a small setting where they were testing the dopamine while they were doing the sound healing. But that was promising because, yes, we need a lot more science today to explain everything that’s going on. But we’re seeing more. If it is going to increase your dopamine, we know it is going to increase your immune system. Your immune system is essential for everything. It should include sound healing, visualization, meditation, and subtle movement so that the qigong system of healing is basically all five. It’s wisdom; it’s sound healing; it’s subtle movement; it’s subtle energy; it’s movement, visualization, and meditation.
That combination is what is showing these incredible healing results. I can just theorize why all the research I’ve looked at with cancer, specifically just one mechanism of action, is clear when you look at the autonomic nervous system. You know all about this; hopefully your audience knows about it. If they don’t, the shortest answer is that we are sympathetic and parasympathetic. The more often your sympathetic nervous system is kicked on to fight or flight, the fear mode from distress, from trauma, from the challenges of life. Then your immune systems are downregulated, and disease can thrive. We kick up the parasympathetic meditation, visualization, and sound healing. All the things that are in qigong and your immune system boom turn on, get activated, and go to work, sending out all the different molecules that are needed to destroy inflammation, fight against cancer, repair tissue damage, and clean up oxidative oxidation in the body. So it is like, yes, you can theorize what’s going on. But the studies that I shared start to look at the deeper pathways and understand why it is happening. The coolest thing is that we can learn this and practice it in our daily lives, and it takes 20 minutes a day. That’s it. You can start with 20 minutes a day, learn these practices, start your day, and feel amazing. You feel you have more energy; you feel you started your day with good intention and visualization. The sound is powerful. You can feel more invigorated. Some people will start at five or 10 minutes a day, and they love it. They go to 20 minutes a day; they love it more; they go to 30 minutes a day. These people that I interviewed who reversed these diseases in a few months were going up to like 3 hours a day because they were just getting so much benefit from it. They couldn’t stop doing it. so, but I would recommend people start at 20 minutes a day and just start experiencing it for themselves. It is incredible what happens.

You’re meaning that people don’t have to take their blood pressure medication, that they can get off their antidepressants, and that they can boost their immune system. They don’t need to take a bunch of vaccines. They can kind of boost it naturally. And then they’re also preventing cancer at the same time.

If that happens through a simple practice like qigong, what can I say? I can’t guarantee it is going to happen for anybody. But we see it again and again. It is not only thousands of years old but also incredibly safe. There are no adverse effects from it that I’ve ever seen. If you can get some potential benefit from it, why wouldn’t you do it? I guess that’s the question.

The medicine will do no harm. I would say this is the first to do no harm. I would argue that some of the things in the medical field are doing harm, since it is a third leading cause of death.
Nathan Crane
You don’t have to argue that. I think we all agree.

And the cool thing is that, yes, this is something we’re talking about since it is a cancer summit. We know that this way we can then control, because the mitochondria control genetic expression in a lot of ways. By using this type of therapy, we are then adjusting the signaling from the mitochondria to your genes, which means that you will be expressing less of what’s called an oncogene, which means that this cell is going to stay vibrant and healthy. We know that cancer cells in themselves are when the cell feels like it is not supported enough and it needs to separate itself from the identity of the whole because it feels that it needs to function in a different way than normal functions or reverts back to another way of gaining energy and surviving. By infusing energy and supporting mitochondrial signaling, there’s no reason for these cells to shift into cancer expression. In addition to that, we have the cancer cells themselves. We’re looking at cancer as something that we liken to how fetuses develop. We have that kind of rapid growth, rapid differentiation, or rapid cellular production, and then differentiation takes place later. We’re looking at that, and we are then wondering, Well, what is the switch that she said switches that back to stop that process? So if we can use these types of therapies to kind of shift that switch backwards, we can then shift a cell that expresses cancer behavior into normal cellular behavior, which is cool. If the cell is too damaged, it will trigger apoptosis. then we use the material from that to build healthy cells, so that, but it is just that what’s so cool when you look at these types of therapies is that they have those potentials and have helped so many people in the past.

There’s a whole body of medicine now focused on energy medicine, primarily in the manufacture, research, development, and manufacturing of energy healing devices. We talked about PEMF, pulse, and electromagnetic frequency. We don’t have time to go into the science of that. But you know a lot about that. You use different energetic healing devices. We know light therapy, again, is energy. We know that there’s a lot of biomass modulation, part of photomodulation, light therapy, sound therapy, PEMF pulse, and electromagnetic frequency therapy that are doing exactly what you just talked about, which is helping to activate that turning an unhealthy cell into a healthy cell or inducing apoptosis assists or helps to basically burst open the cell membrane so that the nutrients can get in there and take care of the cell. We have devices that are being manufactured with a lot of science. It’s supporting them not only for cancer but for pain, chronic inflammation, neurodegenerative disease, and all kinds of things. You can use those devices. I use a PEMF therapy pad as well, and I recommend learning more about them and looking into them. But I believe, and what I think the science is starting to support, is that we have those devices; we have everything those devices have built within us. Where it comes from, I don’t exactly know—from our spirit, from God, from the universe, from the combination of our brain and our heart. But we know it is there because our ancient ancestors knew it was there. Everybody who practices knows it is there. The science is validating that it is there. It’s up to each of us to turn it on and activate it. The only way to do that is through practice. I’ve put it together: if people want to learn it and try it for themselves, try these different qigong practices for themselves. I can share a free resource. People can go on a free trial to learn this from real masters who’ve been practicing and who’ve been learning these ancient practices, from sound healing to visualization to meditation to the whole system. People can try it and experience it for themselves. What I hear, even from a ten-minute practice, I see every day, man. I feel lighter. I feel like I have more energy. I feel like I have clarity of mind. I just feel better overall. It’s like I see it again and again. I do too. That is why I practice every single morning, because I feel better when I do it. If so, if what we do is improve the quality of life so that you feel better and have more energy, well, guess what? We know that that has a downstream effect on all of our organs and all of our healing systems. I just encourage people to try it for themselves and let us know what they think.

Where do they go for that?
Nathan Crane
Yes. Thank you. Healinglife.net.

Yes. Because it is not only our health but also how we relate to others and how we experience life. If you’re a businessperson and an executive, how effective is your brain health? By being in this state, we reduce inflammation, and we know that things like Alzheimer’s disease occur when the brain is continually inflamed. Over a period of time, you have neurons and death. By putting the body into this parasympathetic state, you’re not only increasing your help and your lifespan; you’re also increasing your health and your brain span at the same time. Thank you so much, Nathan. This is awesome. You always bring such cool stuff that is actionable and that people can incorporate into their lives to make huge improvements quickly. Thank you so much.
Nathan Crane
Yes, it is my pleasure. Thanks for having me.
