What is the ‘Energy’ in energy healing?

“What is the “energy” in energy healing? Every healer in this series uses the word. Every patient reaches for it. Ancient traditions built entire systems around it. But what is it — biologically, physically, measurably — and how does it move through the body to heal? “

This excerpt isn’t just an entry point into holistic thought; it represents the frontier where ancient wisdom meets cutting-edge science.

In this recent episode of the Phenomena Podcast, renowned mitochondrial scientist, Columbia University researcher, and MICH graduate Dr. Martin Picard delves into this intersection. He explains how mitochondria serve as the biological bridge between consciousness and matter, providing a scientific foundation for the brand-new medical paradigm that we guide our students in integrating; not only throughout their studies, but also in their lives and ultimately in their practice as homeopaths.

For centuries, conventional medicine has viewed the human body as a complex mechanical clock: a machine to be fixed piece by piece. At MICH, we advocate for a vital shift towards recognizing human beings and living creatures as dynamic organisms: full of meaning, energy, and deep biological interconnection.

Listen to the episode today to explore how science is finally catching up to holism, and to start exploring how MICH is training the next generation of practitioners to lead this shift in homeopathy.
