What if everything you've been taught about health, viruses, contagion, and even cancer is wrong? What if the so-called 'truths' that have been ingrained in us—from the way our bodies function to how diseases spread—are nothing more than misleading lies and misconceptions?If you're like many of us, you've spent the last few years realising that mainstream beliefs around health, wellness, and healing have led to a society that, as a whole, is sicker than ever. And that can be terrifying. How do we keep our loved ones, children, and communities healthy when there is so much conflicting information out there?Today, we're diving deep into these questions with Dr. Tom Cowan, a maverick in the field of alternative medicine. With over 40 years of experience, Dr. Cowan has authored several groundbreaking books, including "The Contagion Myth" and "Cancer and the New Biology of Water." His work challenges some of the most fundamental principles of modern medicine, from Germ Theory to the role of DNA, and introduces us to what he calls the "New Biology"—a revolutionary approach that could transform our understanding of disease, immunity, and the very fabric of life itself.About Dr. Tom Cowan:Listen to Learn:Why everything you think you know about viruses might be wrong—and how this changes everything about immunity and health.How modern medicine's focus on genes and cells misses the mark—and the real factors that might be influencing our health.The four reasons people get sick—and what you can do about it to protect yourself and your loved ones.An unexpected message about nuclear energy—and why it might change how you think about the world.Connect with Dr. Tom CowanDr. Tom Cowan's WebsiteDr. Tom Cowan's InstagramConnect with Nathan MaingardSay hi via email and share your thoughts or experiences.Connect on Instagram for more personal insights and updates.Learn about working with Nathan through coaching, workshops, and retreats.Revitalise Your Health with the 5-Day Morning Practice ChallengeIf today's episode left you questioning what you've been taught about health, now is the perfect time to take control of your well-being.

In this vulnerable and emotional solo episode, I open up about my struggle with perfectionism and failure in both my personal and professional life. I share deep realization about the root of my self-punishment and the painful childhood experiences that shaped my nervous system's response to overwhelming emotions. I confront my inner demons and invite you to join me in the journey of acknowledging and embracing all parts of ourselves. Tune in to this powerful episode and be reminded that freedom lies in accepting and working through our wounds.The video I mention in this episode is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNVfBeKTt24&t
