And Your December 2023 Releases Med-Week Resources, Part 2 This will be a brief and incomplete listing of some of the many companies represented at the recent Medicine Week Congress. In the few weeks since sending you my initial impressions of that amazing congress, I’ve had a chance to reorganize not just my thoughts but also the reams of information and cards I gathered while wandering the exhibits. Because I am not an active practitioner, but rather a lecturer, researcher and writer, my perspective when viewing the exhibits is [...]

November 2023 My dear Colleagues and Friends, What an adventure! For the first time in four years, I made the pilgrimage journey to Baden-Baden, Germany to participate in the annual Medicine Week Congress. For me, traveling by myself with no group and no set schedule for extra meetings, it was almost a holiday. I had the opportunity to visit with several colleagues from former times now that we can also be friends without the formality of business responsibilities. I visited briefly at Medical Electronics in Rheinau (still an interesting [...]

“Turn! Turn! Turn!*” A Time of Consideration A4M Anti-Aging or Complementary & Energy Medicine Medical vs Wellness or Physical/Chemical vs Energy Can We Use Energetic Assessments to Guide Therapy and Move Toward “Wellness”? I have taken some time after returning from the A4M Conference in Las Vegas, NV during December 2019 and over the recent holiday period for a great deal of personal introspection. My mind has been spinning with the input of exceptional information and the considerations of the consequences of the ever-encroaching regulative restrictions. Like the contradictions [...]

A Report on the 53rd Medicine Week Congress, Baden-Baden Germany 2019 In the few weeks that have passed since the closing of this venerable annual Congress, I’ve managed to recoup, regroup and reorganize not only from the jetlag (after 27 hours of travel and nine time zones coming home) but also within my busily working head. Somehow, this time it was necessary to let the impressions, and information and perceptions gel into a strong focus. As I have on so many occasions, I participated in this year’s congress for [...]

Med-Week 2018 Observations, Part 2 Simon Yu, MD spoke during the Cancer Congress at Med-Week during the ½ day English sessions. His new presentation was excellent and was – as far as I could see – very well received. Leigh Erin Conneally, MD also spoke during that conference. She is such a dynamic and passionate speaker that she too was well received. A strong representation from USA/Canada that showcased how advanced and involved with this field we truly are. Again, this year there were a some English lectures available. [...]

Med-Week 2018 Observations, Part 1 This year I was privileged to participate in the recent Medicine Week Congress (Nov. 2018) in Baden-Baden, Germany without the responsibility of organizing and hosting a guided tour program. Although I missed sharing the experience with the usual group of inquisitive participants, it was a rewarding and enlightening conference. It is my pleasure to share a number of important observations and contacts with you that will affect us as we move forward into 2019. These are my own perceptions and educated opinions offered for [...]

A Few Updates, Reminders and a “Happy Holidays” Greeting! 06 December2018 Dear Colleagues and Friends, As the weeks and months have passed, it has taken more time and effort to actually close OIRF honorably than I would have ever imagined. But I believe that I have finally reached the point where all the chores are completed and I can now look forward to the projects and activities that are not so pressing. This allows me the freedom to work on the many projects, translations and commentaries that led me [...]

14 August 2018 Dear Colleagues, Friends and Supporters of the former Occidental Institute, It has now been several weeks since the doors of Occidental Institute Research Foundation made that final closing “kathunk” and freed me from all its business and corporate obligations and responsibilities. Although they tell me I’m supposed to be “retired” I haven’t been idle. It does however take time and some thoughtful introspection to look at the future possibilities and consider how I will go forward into this next chapter of my life. During these weeks [...]
