Abstract
This manuscript is a complement to the previous chapter authored by Jed Schwartz – a JSJ practitioner | educator, herbalist, and iridologist (Chapter 19 in this volume). As an academic who has been struggling with a condition that Western medicine is unable to diagnose and cure, I provide a receiver’s perspective on Jed’s multilogical approach to wellness.
