New Thinking Allowed with Jeffrey Mishlove • Jan 20, 2023 This video is a special release from the original Thinking Allowed series that ran on public television from 1986 until 2002. It was recorded in about 1996. Rachel Naomi Remen, MD, author of Kitchen Table Wisdom, is a professor at the Osher Center of Integrative Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco. Here she highlights the awe and power of the life force — that enables thin blades of grass to grow up through concrete sidewalks. She emphasizes that we cut ourselves off from the power of the life force within us when we edit ourselves in accordance with the approval and disapproval of others. The life force, which is the basis of authentic healing, is our birthright as human beings. It functions independently of any expertise we have.

Kitchen Table Wisdom: Stories that Heal
by Rachel Naomi Remen (Goodreads Author), Dean Ornish (Foreword by)
Enthusiastically praised by everyone from Deepak Chopra to Daniel Goleman to Larry Dossey, Rachel Remen has a unique perspective on healing rooted in her background as a prominent physician, a professor of medicine, a therapist, and a long-term survivor of chronic illness. In the form of a deeply moving and down-to-earth collection of true stories, this prominent physician shows us life in all its power and mystery and reminds us that the things we cannot measure may be the things that ultimately sustain and enrich our lives. Kitchen Table Wisdom addresses spiritual issues: suffering, meaning, love, faith, courage and miracles in the language and absolute authority of our own life experience.
