1. Dr. David Gershan ~ Aging and the Life Cycles of Human Development, June 5, 2019

The segment will survey the life cycles of the human being and the broad polarities in health and illness that Anthroposophic Medicine works with in order to focus on aging: Inflammation and Sclerosis, Incarnation and Excarnation. This survey will lead to a new appreciation of typical illness seen in older age: Hypertension, Withdrawal vs Engagement, Arthritis.

2. Dr. Renee Meyer ~ Movement, Will and Bone: Anthroposophy & Osteoporosis, June 19, 2019

How can osteoporosis be understood from a 3-fold and 4-fold perspective? What insights does anthroposophy bring to the process and treatment of osteoporosis ? Is osteoporosis “ physiologic” or is it a disease?

Dr Meyer began a private medical practice in 2009, focusing on the anthroposophic approach and medical remedies.
