with two women,
intuitive painting,
side by side.
A Message from MUSEA'S Co-Founder, Curate Shiloh Sophia
Hello, Dear Ones! I am so glad you are here! In our class, INSPIRED!
We will guide you through a step-by-step healing journey that includes conversation, education, stories, inquiries, meditation, drawing, AND intuitive painting. You can choose to heal your trauma!
That said, you don't need to be an artist—the painting we are doing is for processing and integrating the material. It isn't about making a cool painting, although you might. It is about bringing you deeper into the story you are working to heal through working with image and language, right and left brain, with a big beautiful heart right in the center.
For each step with the INSPIRED Curriculum, you will be doing a painting step that pairs with the content offered by Lissa and Jeff from their lifetimes of experience with healing and the guidelines of the CDC. You will also hear from Jonathan McCloud as he shares how we work creatively to create a pattern that interrupts our default thinking. So you will be experiencing, layer by layer by layer, healing that occurs and is realized in ways that it hasn't been able to before, and it is evidenced within the context of the painting itself.
You can engage while creating with the flow state, nervous system regulation, healing your stress response, and increased insight - and, of course, INSPIRATION! This is BECAUSE we are including the somatics of the body AND the intentions of the brain - as well as your eyes, which witness the visible changes in real-time as you move through the storyline connected with how you experience your trauma. Obviously, we use the term "trauma-inspired" as a play on trauma-informed. We don't want to be trauma-informed; we want to be inspired to act and do something about it.
One of the greatest challenges with healing is not being able to bring the mental concepts of healing to the somatic realities that the body experiences. We need a process that brings them together. We often do one and then the other. We go to the therapist and talk, and we go to the bodyworker and work the body and the energy worker to shift the energy. How are they woven together? You are responsible for weaving them together, but maybe no one ever mentioned that you get to do that. The trauma that we experience is stored in the mind and the body - so don't we need to access both if we are going to heal both? We think so. As well as a shift in the storyline we are carrying? This requires some deep diving into the way that we are thinking and the way that we are carrying the trauma in our bodies. Once again, brain and body. Our approach is designed to access mind and body simultaneously, with the power of the heart at the center beaming like a sun!
Through self-expression, we engage at a WHOLE new and deeper level of what is possible because we embody the change. Therefore, our brain believes we have made the change. Our body records the change through our senses, and movement is made in ways that talking and processing alone do not offer.
With Intentional Creativity and intuitive painting, you create a visual artifact of the work you have just done. The entire journey puts you on a path of believing in yourself and believing healing is possible. Believing healing is possible is one that is both on Jeff's and Lissa's list for healing. In Inspired, Lissa and I paint side by side in the videos, and you get to paint along with us, tune into our conversation, and be inspired in your own healing journey. All the the backdrop of music by the amazing Karen Drucker.
Feeling inspired guides us along our path and encourages us to keep going. And we sometimes need inspiration to keep going. As you know, healing can be a long, hard journey - and sometimes very mysterious. All of us have been on a journey to discover a pathway to healing that we can repeat again and again. We hope to provide you with tools for inspiration for what you are working to heal now and in the future. Really, you will be able to use these tools again and again.
We know that some of you might be afraid of the creative process, you think you don't have the skill, or you know you won't be able to control what happens. Here's a hint: being unable to control what happens in the painting is part of what brings you to such a richly textured edge within yourself - from here, we dive in. Creativity poses no real threat, but we often fear what might happen! A lot of this stems from childhood trauma related to our creativity and vulnerability; some people put the crayon down when one person said one negative thing and never picked it up again. Let's pick up the crayon! Let's be brave, dive in, and work with the elements to support us. We will be painting inspired by earth, air, fire, water, sunshine, stardust, and moonlight.
Let's gather together!

About the Delivery and Your Participation
Are you curious why some people experience mysterious cures from allegedly “incurable” illnesses while others stay sick or even die?
Are you wondering whether there’s more you might do to optimize your body’s health, your mental health, or the health of your patients, clients, or loved ones?
Do you sense there’s more to optimal health than the reductionist medical model promoted by conventional medicine? Yet you don't want to stray into the ungrounded magical thinking of the wellness industry?
What are the conditions for Spontaneous Healing that are available to us? Can they be chosen and practiced?
Are there things we can do to set up the conditions for healing that increase the chances for improved health outcomes?
Do self-expression and the stories you carry and/or design affect your healing journey?
The answer is YES, and YOU are Invited!
Let us share with you what we’ve discovered in our quest to unravel the mysteries of healing over decades of combined research.
Why we are qualified to teach this Revolutionary Work:
Not every day you get to study with an artist, chef, psychiatrist, or gynecologist.
When it comes to spontaneous and integrative healing methods, you couldn't ask for a better "Dream Team" to guide you through this process.
Dr. Jeffrey Rediger is the medical director at the McLean Southeast Adult Psychiatric Programs, an assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, and the author of CURE: Strengthen Your Immune System and Heal Your Life. Jeffrey spent over 15 years studying spontaneous healing, pioneering scientific tools to investigate recoveries from incurable illnesses.
Dr. Lissa Rankin is the New York Times Best-Selling Author of Mind Over Medicine and six other books. She is also the Founder of the Whole Health Medicine Institute training program for doctors and therapists. She is a radical remission researcher and the founder of the non-profit Heal at Last. She has also starred in two National Public Television specials, and her TEDx talks have been viewed over 4 million times.
Shiloh Sophia is a world-renowned teacher and visionary artist who has been around for over 25 years and is the author of seven books. Shiloh and her husband, Jonathan McCloud, have worked together since 2013 to guide students in the MUSEA community in grasping the WHY and HOW of the intersection between Intentional Creativity and the somatic sciences.
Together, they founded MUSEA: Center for Intentional Creativity, a Virtual and Physical Art School and Museum that serves thousands of students worldwide. These students use the Intentional Creativity Method and philosophy to infuse what we make with intention through mindfulness and embodiment practices. Working with this level of awareness can catalyze healing, move stuck energy, and cause exponential awakening. Many students claim it has been lifesaving.
These four guides are devoted to creating a standard healing practice that reaches across fields and finds a deep baseline we can trust in our approach to healing trauma and disease.
A deep correlation exists between the guiding principles of the Center for Disease Control, SAMHSA’s National Center for Trauma-Informed Care, and the research of two doctors and two educators in the healing arts. Our shared alignment and the correlation of our respective work are our inspirations and are why we chose to bring you INSPIRED.
While the four of us have been called rebels or disruptors in our respective fields, driven by a common goal in our minds and hearts, we knew fundamentally that true healing was possible for our minds and bodies. As a result of our research and empirical evidence, we are inspired to share what we’ve learned so that you can find a path to healing that feels right to you.
Watch this video to meet your Guides for INSPIRED!
“Many illnesses are caused by trauma-induced soul sickness that results in a chronically dysregulated nervous system. When the root of such illnesses is healed at the deepest levels, the body may reflect that healing as a cure.”
~Lissa Rankin, MD
"What a wonderful time we had designing this curriculum for you. The deep conversation, the points of connection and the differing points of view! We are SO excited to share INSPIRED with our mutual communities."
~ Shiloh Sophia
If you are ...
IS the INSPIRED experience for YOU?
Our Trauma -Inspired Apporach to Self-Healing offerings something quite extra ordinary - a combination of 5 Disciplines.
Healing can feel elusive at times. Do you ever feel that way? We try many ways to heal, yet we can’t seem to control the outcomes. We must keep experimenting and tweaking the process until we find the right pathway.
We wonder: is there even a “right" pathway to healing?
The healing journey can sometimes be frustrating. We wonderwho knows what's going on and whether we're doing the right protocol. Can we trust this provider has my best interest at heart? We are looking for master healers and experts who have gone before us. But all too often, we find ourselves in a situation where the counsel we receive creates conflict within us, either from divergent medical opinions or the discordance between these medical opinions and our intuitions.
Trusting ourselves can be challenging because we aren’t sure how to read our bodies' signals. Often, we aren’t sure we can trust the messages we are receiving from our minds. When we don't feel well, the heart messages can become confusing.
We understand. We are four people who have experienced a need for big personal healing, both physically and emotionally, that felt elusive to us. We are also four people whose lives are dedicated to different forms of healing.
We invite you to join us for an immersive experience of what we have discovered with over 100 years of combined wisdom rooted in the journey of healing.
We are on the edge of change.
Let's rush out to greet it!

Why we are bringing you INSPIRED according to
Dr. Lissa Rankin
“There are plenty of academic training programs for health care providers that don’t even touch upon the healing factors that the scientific community knows, for sure, help the body heal. And the internet is loaded with charlatans with ungrounded, untrue pseudoscience and training programs run by people with no credentials who are exploiting vulnerable people who aren’t getting the medical care they need. Both extremes are unconscionable, and what we’re not getting taught is impeding healing for millions of sick folks. We aim to fill that gap- to bring together the legitimate medical evidence-based science without skipping the subjective qualities of healing that are just as necessary as the objective science for those on a healing journey.
Jeffrey, Shiloh, Jonathan, and I have all been studying this same material uniquely for so many years that it feels like we’d be foolish not to try to see where our research overlaps and what we’ve concluded about healing.”
Dr. Lissa Rankin
"Healing is always a journey. But there are destinations all along the path.
What to Expect...
We Will Guide You Through
By the end of INSPIRED, you will...
“It’s the perception that creates the thought that creates the feeling.”
~ Jeffrey Rediger, MD, MDiv, CURED
Dr. Lissa Rankin at MUSEA UNIVERSITY guiding our students in her vision for trauma-informed care
"Every individual is different, and every physical symptom can have countless root causes, including external factors, like environmental toxins, or internal factors that may not have much to do with trauma, like having two copies of a recessive gene, or collective, systemic, and societal factors, like poverty or systemic racism. However, since 85% of illnesses have been shown to be stress-related, it's worth at least getting curious and walking down the trailhead of any physical symptoms that arise, in case we discover something that might be within our power to change, something that could improve our health outcomes. If we find nothing on that trail, fair enough. But usually, in my experience, people learn something about how to live a healthier life by at least exploring the trail.
After years of patient care as a physician, one of the most common root causes discovered by my patients is that their inner journeys were relational. We tend not to want to look at whether our relationships could be linked to our illnesses. It's easier to take a pill and pretend it's just a chemical imbalance or a hormonal issue or something wrong with an organ than to admit that we might be in a toxic marriage or enmeshed with a narcissistic parent who is controlling us or at the mercy of an abusive boss who is slave-driving us. We may even know in our hearts that the relationship is poisonous to our mental and physical health, but we justify it. “But what about the kids?” Or “But I need the money.” Or “I’ll be alone forever if I face the reality of this unhealthy relationship.” Or “But I made a vow.” We may feel trapped in these dynamics, preferring to medicate ourselves rather than even consider changing the hormonal milieu inside the body to see if the body improves if we set clear boundaries to protect ourselves or get ourselves out of stress-inducing relationships altogether."
Dr. Lissa Rankin
Steps to Transform Your Relationship to Healing, for yourself and in support of others.
Jonathan McCloud, Shiloh Sophia McCloud, Dr. Jeffrey Rediger, & Dr. Lissa Rankin
Join four rebels in the field of healing on a journey of self-discovery and healing. What we are about to share with you is walking an edge in the field of healing.
Part of what we will explore together are the four pillars of health that are based on Dr. Jeffrey Rediger’s research into the Olympians of health and well-being: amazing individuals with medical evidence for their remarkable recoveries.
“The four pillars of health and well-being: healing your relationship with nutrition, your immune system, your stress response, and your identity.”
~ Jeffrey Rediger, MD, MDiv, CURED
DISCOVER: Share an 8-step pathway for self-healing you can use again and again to gain insight, support, and direction (it’s a repeatable practice)
EXPLORE: Learn the conditions that were present in spontaneous remissions, that we can duplicate for ourselves (with stories based on research)
EXPRESSION: Access your innate intuition through self-expression by being intentionally creative about your next steps (self-expression activates the brain-body connection and regulates your nervous system)
TRANSFORM: Reframe your relationship with PTSD by adjusting the way you speak to yourself, the language you use about your condition, and an invitation to change.
DECIDE: Choose an area of healing you are working on to practice the process and gain insight for your next steps.
DISCERN: Gain clarity about the kind of support you need at this time and how to make distinctions
In our time together, you will hear the intimate and harrowing stories the four of us have experienced, and that inform our understanding of issues ranging from childhood abuse to active combat to grief and despair.
YOU ARE NOT ALONE in your Struggle.
One of the conditions for healing comes from Lissa Rankin, MD in her best-selling books Mind Over Medicine and Sacred Medicine: It’s a paradox: “You can heal yourself, but you can’t do it alone.”
While we aren’t your in-person support team, we intend to be as supportive and empathetic as we guide you on this journey from our hearts. You aren’t in this alone. We are here to share some of the most potent stories and science we have found.
Join us for a weekend immersion in healing that will guide you toward your next steps. Whether you are healing at a personal level, whether you are a healer, or in the medical field, you can benefit from exploring and practicing our 8 Steps.
NOTE: This material aligns with the Center for Disease Control’s protocol for Trauma-Informed Care. This is important to us as a team because we want to affirm what is good and right about traditional medicine and expand on it.
In this program, we work together to find congruence in our steps for trauma-informed healing.
“The link between our minds and bodies holds a well of potential when it came to radical healing — even mainstream medicine accepts that our stress levels and thought patterns, for example, can impact our physical health.”
~ Jeffrey Rediger, CURED: Strengthen Your Immune System and Heal Your Life
During INSPIRED, you will have access to a student-only classroom in the iMusea App, where you can connect, share photos of your process, and be witnessed and supported by your guides and graduates of our Intentional Creativity Training.
You can engage with the app via your phone or computer, so it's convenient for you to tap in and feel connected to the healing circle we will create together.
“The longest journey you’ll ever make is the journey from the head to the heart.”
~Dr. Lissa Rankin

Our Guide for the journey, Shiloh Sophia, speaks to the story behind INSPIRED:
A Trauma-informed Approach to a Journey of Self-Healing.
Shiloh Sophia, a 30-year educator, and Co-Founder of a global movement dedicated to healing through the arts, noticed something curious. Her community has already practiced the Trauma-informed Care Guidelines from the Center for Disease Control (CDC). She used different language but found alignment.
What she noticed was truly peculiar and inspiring to her - she could map what she had created in the community to the CDC's six Guiding Principles. She used different processes and language, but the pathways were similar. She added an opening and closing step, making it a complete experience discovering eight steps to support someone in their healing journey. She completed a first draft of the demonstration and shared it with healers and medical professionals in her community.
They loved it.
From there, a seed began to sprout.
Once Shiloh started working the mapping over to her community healing work with the CDC, she started talking to Lissa and Jeff about it. Then she had a big AHA! “I wonder if the steps for healing in Lissa’s work and the Pillars in Jeff’s work line up?!”
Shiloh and her husband Jonathan have spent much time discussing healing and the heart with Lissa and Jeff. The territory they are going to cover isn’t a new dialogue, but something the four of them have shared in countless years of deep diving into controversy, conspiracy, and conflict in how they feel about healing based on when they completed medical school, creativity in the role of healing, and so much more!
What resulted is this program, INSPIRED!
While trauma-informed is the buzzword of the last few years, trauma-inspired draws inspiration from the information and brings creativity, story, and potential for change.
A collaboration containing the wisdom of Dr. Lissa Rankin's work in Mind Over Medicine, the stories of spontaneous remission in CURED by Dr. Jeffrey Rediger, Intentional Creativity Story in The Feast Table of Love by Shiloh Sophia, Jonathan's stories of working with recovery from PTSD and the Center for Disease Control to bring you an 8 Part Path to a Trauma-Inspired Approach to Self-Healing.
Read a few of the many 5-star Reviews on Amazon from Our Course Guides
Very well-researched and written!
"Dr. Rediger’s book “Cured” is well-researched and beautifully written. I have often been amazed at how medicine tends to diminish the occurrence of miracles, faith healing, and spontaneous remissions. It is nice to see a physician acknowledge and, indeed, give this topic much-needed attention. This is the beginning of what May soon become more the norm!!" - Desiree.
CURED: SO Clear and Powerful
"The truth of the stories, the insight of this Divine educated man, educated in the language of the world that the majority of people can hear the truth of the Truth within us… we are here experiencing a reality that can be transformed from fear to love and held with the Power from within…we experience what we believe is true about us…as ownership, not blame. Thank you, Dr. Rediger! Thank you" - Marilyn
CURED: A Rare Gem
"Rediger is not only a great scientist, but he is also a great listener and a great writer. My only qualm with this book is that it seems somewhat mis-titled. Perhaps "Heal your identity" is a bit much for most people, so it seems he settled for the immune system. But it's really about identity and why it matters.
Rediger not only effectively tells several stories of "spontaneous remission," interweaving them to illustrate his primary thesis, but he also incorporates his own story so that you can see it all from his point of view. So, it is not just a self-help book. It's also a memoir. And that makes a huge difference.
So yes, just read it. Read it if you or someone you know is facing a life-threatening disease. Read it if you or someone you know has any kind of acute or chronic condition. These lessons he is passing on apply to everyone, not just those suffering from some horrible affliction." - Mark M.
CURED: Amazing book
"What an amazing book! From start to finish, it gets better and better. And when I thought it could not get even better at the end, it did! The point is that the link between our minds and bodies is deeper than many of us thought. The book is a great reminder of this connection and the amazing depth of it, still unexplored and unrecognized in modern medicine." - Darko S.
Mind Over Medicine: Give this book to your doctor and everyone you love . . .
"Thank God that one sick and tired doctor decided to share her story for the benefit of all. Readers gain a new perspective on the not-so-mysterious healing power of placebos and the healing power of love and/or being surrounded by people who care about your well-being. But the most important point of this book is to recognize the healing power you can access from within.
If you know an MD, see an MD, or have a neighbor who's an MD, tell them about Dr. Rankin's book. You could change the course of their lives and the lives of their patients, putting them on a healing course they never thought possible. Warning: if you're a doctor with an open mind and big heart who reads through to the end of the book and takes the time to do the questionnaire, you may discover that you need to make some changes in your practice. Please do! The whole world will be a better place because of your decision.
Thank you, Lissa Rankin, for sharing your story, research, and authentic healing power. I've always had a strong intuition that I wanted to choose my mind over medicine whenever possible. Thank you for providing a guide for doing this. I hope to hug you in person soon, but I'm sending a virtual hug." - Dr. Lorraine
Mind Over Medicine: What's going on inside your mind matters to your health.
"The average age a woman in the United States begins to take care of her health is age 34. Over half the women in the United States are diagnosed with one or more chronic diseases. We are stuck with a medical model that offers diagnosis, treatment, and pharmaceutical prescriptions.
With her book, Mind Over Medicine, Lissa Rankin, MD, aims to change this reality. Her story is one of personal and professional transformation through her health crisis. Her medical training compels her to research studies and stories about modalities thoroughly and approaches to health outside the standard Western approach.
This book belongs in your reference library for anyone in a healing profession, complementary or traditional, interested in a broader perspective on health and healing.
For anyone seeking to avoid or currently suffering from chronic disease, this book will inspire you to see things differently and take your next steps with confidence toward developing your prescription for healing. Dr. Rankin provides a template for developing your unique "radical self-care" prescription.
For parents, this is a must-read. Dr. Rankin applies her self-healing insights to how she and her husband communicate to their children about health and healing. The results are belief-busting! Dr. Lissa Rankin's influence may make the Western medical model "ripe for a miracle" as she inspires her readers to make their bodies and lives "ripe for a miracle" by seeking health through a mind, body, and spirit approach to "radical self-care." ~ Rhana K
Mind Over Medicine: Why I LOVE Dr. Lissa Rankin's Book
"I've been interested in the mind-body-spirit connection for many years. I've read many books on this topic to gain insight into how to keep myself healthy and help my clients heal best. I LOVE Dr. Rankin's book for several reasons:
Mind Over Medicine: Great message and is very well delivered.
"This is a great book! Extremely well-researched, well-written, and with a powerful message. Also, Rankin delivered it in a very open way, without rant or rave, and in a very unpushy way. This might be one of the best books around to bridge the gap between what is a new collective (and scientifically supported) understanding of health and healing, with the current health industry teachings and information. I hope that because the message was delivered by a doctor with a lot of amazing research and in a very easy-to-read way, it adds momentum to the changing tide in understanding wellness and optimum health. Well done, Lissa, and I will definitely be recommending this book to a number of people who are looking in the wrong direction when it comes to helping themselves with the healing of their illnesses. Definitely one of the most comprehensive and practical books on taking ownership of your health and happiness." - Carl M.
Words from Students of Shiloh and Jonathan Healing Programs
"I loved this process. It was very healing and transformative, but it was also really fun! I ended up with a painting that really speaks to me and is a beautiful reminder of the truth of my story. I feel that this truly shifted something for me that had been stuck in my energy field since my early childhood, and I am grateful that it has been transformed through this alchemical process." ~ Myrna
"Shiloh McCloud is an exquisite artist, a great teacher, and a healer. In four hours, she was able to heal 40 years of emotional wounding that kept me from painting. Her process is amazing. She draws out the spirit within and guides you in expressing your innermost knowing. Since studying with her, I have painted regularly, and much to my surprise, my work has been exhibited, purchased, understood, and enjoyed by others. The time you spend with Shiloh is worth every minute of it. Do yourself a favor and pick up that paintbrush." ~ Chief Luisah Teish, Author and Artist
"I’ve gotten more out of the past three weeks than I have in years of therapy!!" - Renee M.
"Honestly, witnessing Shiloh and Jonathan in the brief opportunities through their shares and in Apothecary has done much to help me heal." - Dawn K.
“My Apothecary experience is not just one isolated opportunity for healing through creativity, but rather one steppingstone in my personal growth toward self-actualization. With every piece of art I complete, I see myself cycling through common themes of my life that are asking for attention, but with each painting focusing on a higher level. The eight paintings I have created since my first Legend experience in January 2020 are a visual record of my journey toward wholeness, and collectively, they continue to "teach" me the very wisdom I seek!” Carol F.
“Over the years, I’ve taught many programs about healing- some aimed at patients who aren’t getting better with the treatments they’ve tried and others for doctors, nurses, therapists, and other health care professionals. This program is different not only because it’s collaboratively merging the work of four people who have studied healing for many decades but even more so because it’s experiential and includes embodied action. You can talk about healing all you want, but unless you’re having a direct experience with the healing process- in your body- the results will be limited. Adding Intentional Creativity, somatic and creative practices to the intellectual knowledge and heart-based wisdom of what I’ve been studying since leaving the hospital feels like the crown jewel of my life’s work. While practicing clinical medicine, I made art at night and showed my work in ten galleries, but I never integrated healing and creativity back then. Now it feels completely unnatural to teach a program about healing or spirituality without creativity involved.”
Dr. Lissa Rankin
How do I attend the INSPIRED program?
Simple! Register for the class, and we will greet you in the circle of learners, providing information and prompts along the way. As we get closer to the event, we will frequently communicate tips and reminders about traveling to the wonderful wine country of the Carneros in California.
You will also be granted access to an INSPIRED group within the iMUSEA app (accessible via phone and desktop computers) to share your thoughts, feelings, and photos of your work and to ask questions.
Come as you are, no experience is required. We will provide a link to the books, but you are not required to experience the material.
During our time together, each person IS invited to choose something to heal, but not necessarily your core wound. We want to provide a trauma-informed approach that isn’t re-traumatizing as you learn the 8 Pathways. If you resonate with the material, you can bring it to your deeper wounding and work with your medical professionals to support you.
What can I expect if I am a medical professional?
We are not in conflict with traditional medicine. We seek to bring the best of traditional medicine into relationship with what healing and well-being at the deepest levels require. Our material is aligned with CDC standards for trauma-informed care. Aspects of our stories and the associated science may challenge the current medical field to improve its approach and methods. Still, ultimately, our material can work with any healing modality and approach.
What is Intentional Creativity?
Intentional Creativity® is a philosophy of infusing what we make with intention through mindfulness and embodiment. This approach to making our art can be applied to any medium and any thematic topic. Think about the last time you were presented with food, the difference between smears and disorder on the plate, or a presentation curated with love. It is not a mystery that human beings, by and large, prefer something curated with mindfulness from the maker. Everything we make and bring into form has a level of intention. Our work is to make this approach a conscious practice through our art forms and how we live.
Working with this level of awareness can cause awakening at an exponential level, catalyze healing, and move stuck energy. The frequency of Intentional Creativity with the power of love has profoundly impacted our communities - many claim it has been lifesaving.
When we make something, we infuse it with our energy. As it becomes infused, it takes a charge and becomes a resonator. This energy charge is returned to us based on what we put into it. This is reciprocity at the quantum level.
If we choose to, we can also send this same feeling energy out to others, and yes, it travels there instantly. This is a quantum connection. Even after we are done with what we make, years later, it can still carry the 'charge' from our intention in the molecules. This is measurable science, intention in action. And we hope, love in motion.
