My guest expert on scalar energy,Tom Paladino, is on a personal mission to make a difference in the world by providing people with the education and tools to restore optimum health and enhance their quality of life.

Tom describes that working through a person's photograph, scalar energy has the power to break down molecular bonds of pathogens, bacteria, fungi, and much more in the body. Tom has scalar energy programs for anti aging, hormones, nutrition, balancing chakras, removing toxins, deepening spirituality, improving cognitive function, and overall well being. In response to my scepticism about this energy force operating through a photograph, I asked Tom to help me understand not only that it works but how it works.
