Baldwin, PhD—physiologist, Reiki Master, HeartMath certified trainer, and author—whose remarkable path from lab science to energy medicine reveals the deep wisdom in following the unseen.While conducting research at the University of Arizona, Dr. Baldwin made a startling discovery: her lab rats’ inflamed intestines weren’t caused by chemicals—they were a physiological response to stress. That revelation led her to explore energy-based healing modalities like Reiki. And in a bold, pivotal act of integrity and purpose, she gave up her tenure at the University of Arizona—a decision that became a defining moment in her benevolent journey.Now featured on Amazon Prime’s docuseries Bliss Up: Exploring Energy, the Ultimate Healer, Dr. Baldwin blends rigorous science with intuitive healing.
