In this episode of The Matcha Guardians Podcast, we talk with Ann Marie Chiasson, a respected figure in the field of integrative medicine and energy healing. Ann Marie shares her unique journey from an energy healer to a medical doctor, emphasizing the seamless blend of conventional medicine with energy healing practices. Her background includes extensive work with Mayan shamanic healers and psychic surgeons, highlighting her deep commitment to exploring alternative healing methods. Ann Marie's expertise is further solidified by her role as the director of the Fellowship at the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona, where she teaches and promotes the integration of energy medicine into medical practices.
Throughout the discussion, Ann Marie elaborates on the concept of energy healing, explaining its foundation in traditional healing traditions and its application in modern medical practices. She discusses the innate ability of individuals to harness and manipulate energy for healing purposes, suggesting that this capability is not exclusive but can be developed with training and practice. Ann Marie also touches on the importance of touch and its physiological and emotional impacts, illustrating how energy healing can complement conventional medical treatments.
We also explore the practical aspects of energy healing, including its application in diagnosing and treating patients. Ann Marie shares personal anecdotes that show the effectiveness of combining energy healing with medical knowledge, offering insights into the potential for a more holistic approach to healthcare. She also addresses the challenges and misconceptions surrounding energy healing, advocating for a broader acceptance and understanding of these practices within the medical community.
And before we let her go, Diana has to ask about "psychic surgery."
