Richmond IONS October 2023 Meeting

“The Latest on the Perils of 5G”

Our October 21, 2023 program will feature a talk by Nelson Marquina, MSc, PhD, DC, President, Founder and Chief Science Officer of Laser Biotech International.

Dr. Nelson Marquina is one of our most popular and frequently requested guest speakers, and for good reason. Always on the cutting edge of technology, Nelson is a developer of photonic and bioelectromagnetic systems and treatment protocols for healthcare applications in physical medicine and dentistry.

He has spent much of his professional life investigating and researching both the beneficial and the adverse health effects of modern technology such as electromagnetic fields (EMF). He has been developing guidelines and techniques for enhancing the EMF
beneficial effects and protecting from the deleterious effects.

Nelson focuses on how EMF, including 5G, affect our nervous and endocrine systems, and their influences on our physical and mental health, our emotions, and our spiritual experiences. In researching the EMF effects on humans, he addresses the nature of the self and our perceived nature of reality from the most fundamental principles of biophysics and biochemistry.

During the Covid year of 2020, Nelson gave us a cautionary presentation about the potential perils and pitfalls of 5G, but that was at a time when it was not yet in common or widespread use. Now 5G is ubiquitous, and its effects are no longer a subject of mere speculation, but the reality with which we all are living.

We are extremely pleased that Nelson is willing to take time from his busy professional schedule to address our group once again. It’s another not-to-be-missed program for all who can attend!

Spiritual Practice Series October 2023

Description:

The times we find ourselves in are nothing if not unprecedented and unpredictable. If we can take time to slow down and listen to our dreams, we can find that space, make vital connections to ourselves and those around us, and begin to listen to the voice of Earth speaking to us despite the chaos. Even our most frightening nightmares have a gift to give us.

By paying attention to dreams, synchronicities (meaningful coincidences), and other unconscious contents that call out to us, we can find this place of deep connection and resilience even in the throes of despair or overwhelm. Join us to explore dream images, climate despair and hope, and develop a plan to listen to your dreams more deeply.
