All our family
Last weekend my family and I saw an incredible staging of Arthur Miller’s play All My Sons at the Apollo theater in London. I’d seen the play before, but Miller’s themes especially resonated with me this time because they offer such a vital message in these uncertain times. If you haven’t seen it, here […]

Against Darwin, against debate
Last week, I was making the point to a friend of mine that Darwin has been used as the unwitting intellectual rationale for many social movements that haven’t been particularly good for humanity (such as red-in-tooth-in-claw capitalism), and also that Darwin, for all his brilliance as a scientist, was a white supremacist. My friend worried […]

Bullyboy science
No matter what else I write about, inside this breast will always beat the heart of a reporter. I grew up during the Woodward-Bernstein years, when journalists considered themselves members of the Fourth Estate and took seriously their role as guardian of the public interest. For each of the first three of the six books […]

What does conscious evolution look like?
Now that I’ve returned from my Evolutionary Leaders’ retreat, I thought I’d share with you some of my observations about what happened there. The Evolutionary Leaders’ is a collection of leaders in the consciousness movement, set up in 2008 by Deepak Chopra and the Association of Global New Thought. It was Barbara Fields, the director […]

Bringing intention to work
I’ve just returned from our summer vacation, and among my books for holiday reading was Ernest Hemingway’s short works. His tale The Old Man and the Sea tells the story of an impoverished old fisherman named Santiago, who hasn’t caught a fish for many weeks. One morning, he decides to head out further than he […]

Against holism
Just occasionally, I come across a medical hero, a doctor willing to break the conspiracy of silence that exists among doctors about the damage caused by their tools. My hero of the hour is an American psychiatrist called Grace E. Jackson. Dr. Jackson is utterly, refreshingly horrified by psychiatric medicine. In fact, she is horrified […]

Not my problem
In 2002 my magazine What Doctors Don’t Tell You first learned about plans within the European Union to radically restrict natural medicine across all member countries, starting with laws that would create a very low ceiling of ‘safe upper limits’ in vitamins. Although the laws were ostensibly to create a level playing field within the […]

Whorls on fire
Here in the UK, we’re preparing for what scientists are calling a ‘solar tsunami’. All predictions are on that we will have a rare glimpse of Northern lights — a vivid neon glow of solar activity if the grey cloud perpetually engulfing England lifts tonight. In many locations around the world, the inhabitants are regularly […]

First sight: back to the future
I’m back home from my Transformational Leadership Council meeting in Santa Fe, New Mexico. During the week-long event, and the various meetings with remarkable men – and women – one particular connection stood out: a dinner my husband and I had with Larry Dossey, during which we’d had a fascinating chat about the power of […]
