A Personal Invitation to the June 7-11 Intuitive Medicine Summit

From Your Host, Lisa Bonnice

Hi, I’m Lisa Bonnice and I’m hosting The Shift Network’s very first Intuitive Medicine Summit, where we’ll explore ways to participate in our own healing.

Like many of you, I’ve spent decades dealing with chronic unwellness. Most of my life has been spent in a desperate search for the right medical practitioner who can, once and for all, figure out what’s “wrong with me” so I can finally feel well.

Too many of us are chronically suffering with illness. Those illnesses may... thank goodness... not be fatal, but they certainly affect our quality of life. Perhaps our doctors don’t have any good suggestions other than “take a pill...” Or maybe we have physical symptoms that can’t be easily diagnosed so no treatment — or worse, the wrong treatment — is offered. We’re left to wonder, Who can help me, because I can’t go on like this.

That’s what drove me to host this summit, so I could have conversations with people who might be able to help. From medical intuitives who can scan your body for possible conditions and treatments, to licensed medical practitioners who use their intuition when diagnosing and treating dis-ease, this is a great collection of experts.

We start with Dr. Norm Shealy, the father of medical intuition. Dr. Shealy has made this his life’s work for decades and he has a lot to say on the subject.

I also talked with Dr. Judith Orloff, author of Guide to Intuitive Healing, who offers practical techniques to tap into medical intuition and act on it to improve the quality of your decisions, health, and life.

Lavinia Plonka, an expert in the Feldenkrais method, shows us how paying attention to the way we move and how our bodies might be “frozen’ can educate us and lead to simple healing techniques.

Dr. Natasha Fallahi explains how being “too sensitive” can affect our thyroids, and Dr. Titus Chiu talks about why understanding the brain is so important for our health and intuition.

Dr. Beth McDougall beautifully illustrates our “Pristine Blueprint,” our healthiest self, and how to tune in to a higher degree of health.

I even offer some words about intuition and weight balancing. After all, if it was simply about “eat less, exercise more,” healthy weight would be a no-brainer. By listening to our bodies’ messages, we more easily express our healthiest selves hiding beneath the layers of excess weight.

If this topic interests you at all — if your intuition is giving you a nudge — go ahead and register to listen to this free summit, so you can share in these powerful conversations that are sure to change the way you think about your health... body, mind, and spirit.

I’ll see you there.

Lisa Bonnice is an award-winning writer and humorist, receiving two Excellence Awards from MSNBC.com during her tenure there as a news writer/associate producer. She also traveled the country as a stand-up comedienne, working with the likes of Tim Allen and Steve Harvey.

Her first book, Shape Shifting: Reclaiming Your Perfect Body, includes a foreword by Neale Donald Walsch, with whom she worked within the organization he founded, Humanity’s Team, as the Regional Director of the entire southern portion of the United States. Her True Crime novel, Fear of Our Father, was twice featured on the Investigation Discovery Network. Her newest novel, a metaphysical comedy called The Poppet Master, includes a foreword by Marc Allen, publisher at New World Library (and the man who discovered Eckhart Tolle).

Lisa hosted her own podcast, Shape Shifting, on BlogTalkRadio, featuring such guests as Lynne McTaggart, Edgar Mitchell, and Neale Donald Walsch. She has been a program host with The Shift Network for almost five years, where she has interviewed luminaries such as Gregg Braden, Robert Thurman, and Stanislov Grof. She also hosted an online chat show, Mind Yourself, where she interviewed experts in human transformation.

Her current writing project, based on actual events found in her family tree, spurred Lisa into her almost obsessive interest in ancestral healing. While doing genealogy research, she discovered an ancient witch trial and generational curse, which explained an awful lot about unusual patterns and illnesses in her life and those of her family. As her work with The Shift Network offered access to many of today’s leading-edge speakers, she noticed a common theme: many of them briefly referred to working with ancestors to heal illness and behavior patterns, but ancestral healing itself was never the main focus of the conversations. Lisa picked up these threads and tied them together, weaving together the Ancestral Healing Summit with Shift’s Summits team. This writing project, tentatively titled The Maxwell Curse, tells how ancestral legacies can ripple across time for centuries, leaving havoc in their wake. Lisa feels that it’s her life’s work to heal that curse by working with her ancestors, and sharing with others how they too can break the ties that bind them to their own families’ past histories.
