  • Medical Intuition
    May 2002 Volume 2, No. 2 Medical Intuition An interview with Nina Zimbelman and Patricia Johnson, MD Nina Zimbelman is a medical intuitive who works closely with Patricia Johnson, MD, a family physician in Robbinsville, North Carolina. IJHC: I am so impressed with how the two of you have come to work harmoniously together, blending intuitive awareness and holistic medical practice. Could you tell us, Nina, how your intuitive gifts developed? N: By the age of 35, I found I had achieved “The American Dream”. My husband and I had been very successful in business, making more money than we needed. Finding that money did not create happiness, I fell into a drug habit that brought me to the place where I had to choose whether to live or die. Knowing on some level it was not time for me to die, I gave up drugs and cleaned up my diet, working to regain my health. In doing so, I was led into macrobiotics, which led to Chinese Medicine. I discovered that the ancient Chinese physicians relied heavily on their intuition in tending to their patients. I began practicing with friends and colleagues, and discovered I have natural intuitive talents. IJHC: Nina, could you say a word about how you came to develop your community? N: Yes. There was never any intention around the community. I had been working in the spiritual world since 1983 and had been doing a lot of research in those dimensions. I just had a really clear connection with “the other world,” so to speak.

  • Burk L. Psychic/Intuitive Diagnosis: Two Case Reports and Commentary
    Burk L. Psychic/intuitive diagnosis: Two case reports and commentary. J Altern Complement Med 1997;3(3):209-211 The article by Young and Aung (1) on psychic diagnosis and the editorial call for response (2) prompted me to submit these two case reports with suggestions for future researchers. As an academic radiologist specializing in the use of MRI for musculoskeletal diseases since 1985, I found my diagnostic paradigm challenged by the following experience with a medical intuitive in 1992. Case Report #1 A thirteen year old white female who appeared younger than her stated age presented with left sciatica and was referred for radiographic evaluation. A normal film of the pelvis was followed by MR examinations of the pelvis and lumbar spine which revealed a large lesion in the left sacrum with an associated epidural mass at the L5-S1 level. The appearance was felt to be most consistent with a malignant tumor although involvement of the left sacroiliac joint raised the possibility of septic arthritis with osteomyelitis and an epidural abcess. Clinically the patient was not acutely ill or febrile so a biopsy was scheduled for several days later. In the interval between the MR studies and the biopsy a phone call was made to the medical intuitive in another part of the country, and she was given only the name and age of the patient without any information with regard to symptoms or prior imaging studies. After five seconds of silence she replied, "There is a tumor in the pelvis working its way into the spine. This is an immature girl with a terminal condition which is caused by a severe imbalance of her second energy center or chakra.

  • Medical Intuition: Healing Physical Illnesses Such As Autoimmune, Cancer, and Fear-Based Illnesses
    Medical Intuition: Healing Physical Illnesses such as Autoimmune, Cancer, and Fear-based Illnesses. What Is Medical Intuition? Medical Intuition is an alternative medicine process where the practitioner or Medical Intuitive uses their intuitive abilities to find the cause of a physical or emotional condition through the use of insight rather than modern medicine. Often the medical intuitive process relies on upper chakra intuition such as ​clairvoyance (seeing the energy body) or ​clairaudience​ (receiving information from guides and angels), because emphatically reading medical issues can result in transference of wounds or unprocessed energy. The Premise of Medical Intuition ​ The premise of medical intuition is that instead of addressing emotional and energetic issues first, the physical symptom presents and the approach is often on how to address what’s under the physical symptom. The premise is also that you are innately whole and the body can heal itself. Life force flows through the central channel from the earth and the cosmos to 72,000 meridians, each sourcing various organs in the body. When it’s fluid - the body is healthy. When there is a block in that flow, life force energy cannot access that organ or area of the body and disease forms and affects other areas of the body. The medical intuitive process is to identify the block and whether it is energetic, emotional or physical, and how old or layered it may be. Medical intuition is a phrase applied to intuitive energy healing to give it more credibility by including the word “medical”, but all intuitive energy healing addresses the layers underneath physical, emotional, and psychological issues.

  • The Natural Power of Intuition
    THE NATURAL POWER OF INTUITION: EXPLORING THE FORMATIVE DIMENSIONS OF INTUITION IN THE PRACTICES OF THREE VISUAL ARTISTS AND THREE BUSINESS EXECUTIVES by Jessica Jagtiani Dissertation Committee: Professor Judith Burton, Sponsor Professor Mary Hafeli Approved by the Committee on the Degree of Doctor of Education Date 16 May 2018 Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Education in Teachers College, Columbia University 2018 ABSTRACT THE NATURAL POWER OF INTUITION: EXPLORING THE FORMATIVE DIMENSIONS OF INTUITION IN THE PRACTICES OF THREE VISUAL ARTISTS AND THREE BUSINESS EXECUTIVES Jessica Jagtiani Both artists and business executives state the importance of intuition in their professional practice. Current research suggests that intuition plays a significant role in cognition, decision-making, and creativity. Intuitive perception is beneficial to management, entrepreneurship, learning, medical diagnosis, healing, spiritual growth, and overall well-being, and is furthermore, more accurate than deliberative thought under complex conditions. Accordingly, acquiring intuitive faculties seems indispensable amid present day’s fast-paced multifaceted society and growing complexity. Today, there is an overall rising interest in intuition and an existing pool of research on intuition in management, but interestingly an absence of research on intuition in the field of art. This qualitative-phenomenological study explores the experience of intuition in both professional practices in order to show comparability and extend the base of intuition, while at the same time revealing what is unique about its emergence in art practice. Data gathered from semi-structured interviews and online-journals provided the participants’ experience of intuition and are presented through individual portraits, including an introduction to their work, their worldview, and the experiences of intuition in their lives and professional practice.

  • Leaky Gut - Herbal, Nutritional, and Integrative Approaches by Stephen Byers
    Leaky Gut - Herbal, Nutritional, and Integrative Approaches By Stephen Byers WHAT IS “LEAKY GUT SYNDROME”? DEFINITION: Leaky Gut Syndrome – This term is not a medically recognized diagnosis. It uniquely refers to increased permeability or hyper-permeability of the intestinal walls which occurs when tight junctions of the epithelial cells become loosened or “leaky”. This can allow undesired foreign substances, including undigested food particles to more easily pass through into the bloodstream. It is believed that this intestinal permeability (IP) can contribute to a cascade of imbalances in the function of the body leading to a variety of immune, hepatic, and/or lymphatic associated conditions. Due to the variety of ways Leaky Gut Syndrome can manifest, this article will predominantly refer to research and treatments for IP rather than specifically for the more broad umbrella term Leaky Gut Syndrome. In response to the increasing public acceptance of Leaky Gut Syndrome, The UK National Health Service (2015) writes: “While it's true that some conditions and medications can cause a "leaky" gut (what scientists call increased intestinal permeability), there is currently little evidence to support the theory that a porous bowel is the direct cause of any significant, widespread problems. There is also little evidence that the "treatments" some people claim help to reduce bowel "leakiness", such as nutritional supplements and herbal remedies, have any beneficial effect for most of the conditions they supposedly help.” It is true that research on direct medical treatments for IP specifically is limited, but there are currently decades of research trials pointing to a clear relationship between IP and numerous diseases and conditions.
