Is Star Trek Technology Here Today?

When I think of Interrogatory Biofeedback, it reminds me of watching Star Trek when a patient would go to Sick Bay and received a shot. What was in that shot? It sounded like air. Was it knowledge; a type of knowledge that reminds the body how to be well? I think that we can go there with this technology that is available today called Interrogatory Feedback or EDS (electro dermal screening). This system is used to evaluate a client at a custom level based on exactly where the body is physically, mentally and emotionally. Sometimes even a lacking spirit is detected as a cause of an imbalance or illness. Interrogatory Biofeedback uses a query machine which is a communication device. It is not a diagnostic machine nor does the Practitioner diagnose. A Practitioner is using the system in won...

Finally Realizing Diversity Sells Victoria’s Secret Joins The ‘Inclusive Revolution,’

Victoria’s Secret recently announced a cast of new “angels.” They include American athlete Megan Rapinoe, actress and activist Priyanka Chopra Jonas and the brand’s first transgender model, Vanetina Sampaio. Together, they speak to a far more diverse image of beauty than was common for the once popular company. Victoria’s Secret learned a lesson other leading fashion brands and the industry at large are coming to realize: diversity sells. Better representation This isn’t surprising. For years, consumers have called for greater inclusion and better representation in mainstream fashion. And the industry’s most avant-garde players have already responded, including Rihanna’s much talked about Savage X Fenty and Summersalt’s “every body is a beach body” campaign. Consumers are willing to back...
