"What is Holistic Immunity?" with Melissa Greer, D.O. and Gillian Schoemaker

  • Camphhill Village, Kimberton Hills, Rose Hall 1601 Pughtown Road Phoenixville, PA, 19460 United States (map)

All of life is a process of forming, moving and dissolving. We are at all times building who we are on all levels- forming ourselves, shifting/growing and dissolving again. A wonderful question to ask oneself is, "What forms am I making in my life?" 

Join us in considering these questions together as well as experience eurythmy together with new eyes.  

A wonderful change which came from the pandemic is that people are awakening to deeper questions of what health actually is. Many have learned that just stopping inflammatory processes and calling it health is near sighted. Many have awakened to the fact that self participation in health is of utmost importance! Also many have realized that old approaches like supplementing (taking zinc and other vitamins, etc.) for health has its limits. 

In fact this way of treating the body through automatic daily supplementation is similar to fertilizing a field in conventional farming! This way of looking is the same kind of reductionist thinking which we are so accustomed to and try to move away from in organic agriculture. Why do we keep these approaches for how we treat our own bodies? How can we grow beyond this, become more sensitive to what is truly needed and participate in building new forms for ourselves like a rich soil?

There is much to say and consider on this topic! We will touch upon a fourfold way of seeing immunity in health maintenance and diseases such as acute/chronic inflammations, autoimmune disease, allergies and cancer?

We recommend watching this video by Dr. Jeff Green on a four-fold way of seeing as a review and new perspective of what has been shared in previous talks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqhRAYRumrQ
