Episode notes

Looking for science news that focuses on consciousness, spirituality and true healing can be hard for the average consumer to find unless you’re Paul (who knows where to look for it).

Meet David Lorimer, program director and global ambassador of the fact-finding Scientific and Medical Network, editor of its companion publication Paradigm Explorer and the author of many books.

David joins Paul for a deep conversation about the growing problems with the politics of science and how it will evolve going forward and what all of this means for our collective humanity plus some poetry, this week on Spirit Gym.

Learn more about David and his work at the Galileo Commission, Beyond the Brain conference series and Inspiring Purpose. Listen to his podcast, Imaginal Inspirations, on Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts. Check out David on social media via Facebook and LinkedIn.
