    My guest for this episode is Dr. Neil Nathan. Neil Nathan, MD has been practicing medicine for 50 years. He has written several books including: "Healing is Possible: New Hope for Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia, Persistent Pain, and Other Chronic Illnesses" and "On Hope and Healing: For Those Who Have Fallen Through the Medical Cracks".

His 2021 book "Energetic Diagnosis" is a discussion of the value of intuition and energetic devices as an aid to both diagnosis and treatment of medical illness.
