FOREWORD
MEDICAL INTUITION: A SCIENCE OF THE SOUL
The field of holistic medicine is, of course, a central part of the energy paradigm. And the need for medical intuition to be recognized as a science within this emerging paradigm of energy, or mystical consciousness, is not an option so far as I am concerned. It is a necessity. We have years of research ahead of us to mature this field into a well-respected science that can stand alongside other sciences, and like other new fields, this, too, must earn its stripes. But that is a worthy scrutiny, as medical intuition needs to come into its own as a legitimate field. As an energy-based science, medical intuition has an enormous amount of vital data that it is capable of providing to the physical world of science, data that quite frankly makes a standard diagnosis incomplete. Yet, because medical intuition is not yet subject to the rigors of an authentic science and does not yet have an agreed upon education program for medical intuitives, much less a national board that licenses them to practice, and because we have yet to formulate controlled means to validate “energy data” or to work with it in a reliable manner, the field has not yet earned the credibility that it so urgently needs.
While Norm brilliantly addresses these concerns within the pages of this book, as a practicing medical intuitive for over two decades, I know from long experience that the field of holistic health, including the science of medical intuition, is confronting several obstacles that will take years to resolve, as they are not mere problems. Problems have solutions. What we are confronted with as we truly come to grips with the vast difference between the physical world of medicine and the philosophical core of energy medicine is a predicament—namely, a collision of realities and all that such a collision portends. And predicaments, unlike problems, do not have solutions. Rather, they call for the emergence of new perceptions in order to move forward.
Let me offer just a few examples of what the challenge is to which I am referring. What makes “science” a science is repeated research that, in turn, produces reliable data. Such data becomes a building block, a given piece of information that
