EP01: True Knowledge of the Human Being as a Foundation for the Art of Medicine

Season one: Awakening our Understanding of Illness: 100-years of Fundamentals of Therapy
The book Fundamentals of Therapy by Rudolf Steiner and Ita Wegman is our guide throughout the next five episodes as we discuss Chapters 1, 3, 5, 7 and 14. We hope you will read along with us! In this episode, Adam and Laura explore Chapter 1: True Knowledge of the Human Being as a Foundation for the Art of Medicine, discussing the challenges of standardized, protocol-based medicine in contrast to the gifts that arise through the relationship between the doctor, the patient, and the illness. We delve into the significance of the etheric life force for healing, as well as the anthroposophical concepts of imagination, inspiration, and intuition.
