164. Healing Chronic Illness: God’s Design & Natural Medicine
What if the path to real healing starts with awe—at how you were designed—and the courage to ask why your body is speaking up? We sit down with Dr. Vaughn Lawrence, a traditional naturopath and iridologist, for a candid, faith-forward journey from corporate success and spiritual emptiness to founding Spirit of Health, a clinic built on education, empowerment, and the conviction that God still heals.
Vaughn opens up about his redemption story, then moves straight into the heart of root-cause care. Instead of chasing labels, he looks for the terrain: parasites, mold toxicity, Lyme and co-infections, heavy metals, and chemicals that suppress immunity and inflame tissues. You’ll hear a striking case of a young mother whose “mystery illness” turned out to be extreme mold exposure—and how targeted cleansing, diet strategy, and persistence rebuilt her life. For parents navigating eczema, brain fog, or stubborn gut issues, Vaughn explains why gentle parasite cleanses can transform kids’ skin and sleep when standard approaches stall.
We also cover iridology—how the iris can reflect constitutional patterns, congestion, and even generational tendencies. It’s not mysticism; it’s a non-invasive tool that complements smart testing and a biblical view of the body. Vaughn shares his clinic’s vision and creed: Jesus as the source of life and healing, the body’s God-given capacity to repair, and the role of herbs and natural therapies aligned with creation’s design. Pain becomes an indicator rather than a target to silence. The home becomes the first clinic, where families learn to steward their health with wisdom, resilience, and hope.
If you’re ready to move beyond symptom management into purposeful, faith-led medicine—with practical steps for detox, testing, and rebuilding—this conversation will give you clarity and courage. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs fresh hope, and leave a review to help more people discover root-cause healing grounded in truth.

Dr. Vaughn:Thank you. It's definitely an honor to be here.
Rebecca Twomey:Well, I am excited. You and I have had some fantastic conversations already about health. And every time we get to talking, I feel like we could talk forever. So I know that this episode is going to be the same. So we're actually going to be doing a series together because uh you and I just have too much good stuff to share with our audience. You know, you know, our audience is a lot of moms and a lot of women and mothers and mothers to be or soon to be or wanting to be, or I mean, women of all ages. We have some men that listen too, so we're not we're not Xing you guys out. But that's one of the things that I I love about you and your story, and what you do is your focus on helping women. So that's just something I wanted to throw out there. So let's start. Can you share your background with us? How did you get to where you are today with help?
Dr. Vaughn:Yes, I would love to. And I I love to share my story because I love God stories, and so I have my own God story, and so I'd love to share that. Uh, I'll I'll give you the shortened version. And I have shared this on YouTube publicly. I've shared my testimony a couple of different times. Uh, but I'm originally from the Midwest, uh, born in Iowa, but grew up in I'll just say Kansas City area, pretty much my whole life. Um, I, you know, had pretty, I had good parents, uh, loved me well. Uh, my parents are still married. They just celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary, which is congratulations to that one. Yes. Uh, so yeah, just um, yeah, great, great childhood. Um, not not a lot of God in my childhood. Um, so I definitely rebelled in my teen years and college years and did a lot of uh crazy things. At 26 years old, I was actually married and moved to Las Vegas, Nevada.
Rebecca Twomey:Okay.
Dr. Vaughn:Business I was working for at the time, the corporate business I was working for offered me five different cities to move to. I was very successful in the job I was doing. And they offered me five different cities. I chose Las Vegas, which says a lot about where I was in life at that time.
Rebecca Twomey:Sure.
Dr. Vaughn:And uh yeah, I went to Vegas and um on the outside, everything seemed okay. On the inside, I was miserable. Um, I had a good job. Um, I played semi-pro tennis. I traveled all over the place playing tennis. I was just miserable inside. I didn't really know why. Um, I chose to get a divorce. Completely me, completely selfish, completely self-focused. You know, definitely one of the things like I don't want to have regrets, but definitely something that was just really hard that later in life, you know, I repenting for. Um and uh so I I'm uh I'm living with another girl uh that was my tennis partner in in Vegas, and and I'm sharing all this because this is what led to Spirit of Health. So uh in Las Vegas, um again, on the outside, everything looking good as far as how my life is going, and the inside just so unsettled. I go to Kansas City to go home for Christmas. My girlfriend at the time can't come because of her work. There's a huge ice storm in Kansas City, so I can't travel to Iowa to go visit my relatives, which is normally what I would do for Christmas. And an old friend of mine from high school that I hadn't seen in 10 years invited me over to a Bible study at a friend's house. So these are three guys I went to high school with I hadn't seen in 10 years. I go over to their house, I got the list, the laundry list of questions that they can't answer about God, right? And uh again, long story short, I get encountered at my friend's basement because I'm at this point, I'm I I've actually quit my corporate job and I'm working at a health food store in Las Vegas. And it was the first time I was like, this is exciting. I'm passionate about this, herbs, like this is cool. I love it. Like I found life when I was so felt so dead inside for so long because you know I did. I did the strip clubs, the alcohol, the drugs. Like I I I have not saying this, you know, saying this with sadness, like I I've literally broken every commandment I have. And so yeah, that was my life. And so um, so yeah, just get encountered by the Lord as my friends are trying to look up scriptures based off of what I'm saying about health. Because that's my passion at the time, health. So one of my friends pulls up Genesis 129 and reads that scripture about every seed-bearing plant shall be yours for food. And I go, guys, like I'm I feel weird. I feel like I feel like kind of almost dizzy. I almost feel like kind of drunk. Um, I just had this odd feeling come over me, and I'll never forget my friend who was like, Oh, that's that's the Holy Spirit entering your body. And I'm like, what does that mean? Like I was no idea. But it was such a profound encounter, and I felt peace and I felt the love of God, and just like this blanket covering me. And uh they laid hands on me, and I gave my life to Jesus at um, I was 33 years old at that time. Wow, I gave my life to the Lord at 33 years old in this basement. So here's the crazy part I go back to Las Vegas and I'm living with this girl, and I tell her what happened, she didn't want to hear it. She basically thought I'd gone kind of cuckoo, and it was so real that I couldn't drink alcohol anymore. Like literally had zero taste for alcohol. I mean, I was a bottle of Jack Daniels a week. If I went into an establishment where people were swearing, the words pierced my skin like a knife. It literally felt painful to hear the language that people and I swore like a sailor.
unknown:Yeah.
Dr. Vaughn:So I burned stuff, I sold stuff. It was right when the housing market crashed in 2008. I owned a half a million dollar house in Las Vegas, another $280,000 house. I was completely upside down in those homes. My girlfriend left me because she thought I'd gone nuts. Plus, I never proposed to her, which I think was God just grace just saving me from that situation.
Rebecca Twomey:Yeah.
Dr. Vaughn:I declared bankruptcy and I was like, I'm starting my life over at 33 years old. So before I left Las Vegas, in the middle of the night, again, I'm working at this health food store, loving that part. That's like the only part of my life that was good in that moment. And in the middle of the night, out of a dead sleep, I sit up and out of my mouth could I just say spirit of health. It just came out of me. And I was like, I don't know what that is, I don't know what that means. And you know, I was seeking the Lord at that time, looking for for answers. I didn't have obviously any spiritual mentors or anything like that. My parents weren't really believers at that time. And so, yeah, spirit of health came out of me. I uh I stayed a little while longer in Las Vegas and basically declared bankruptcy, packed everything up, got rid of all like two houses worth of possessions and just all this stuff. And I'm like, I'm starting my life over. First time I felt like I heard from the Lord was move back to Kansas City. So I moved back to Kansas City. My dad was retiring at the moment, uh, in that time in his life. And I was like, hey, dad, do you want to start a business together? I feel like the Lord wants me to start this thing called spirit of health. I had gone back to school to get a doctorate in naturopathy and a concentration in herbology. And I did that while I was living in Las Vegas, and um, the school was out of Birmingham, Alabama, and I was doing some online things, training with three master herbalists in Las Vegas. There's a huge natural healing community in Las Vegas, uh, not necessarily Christ-centered, but sure, yeah. Amazing people.
Rebecca Twomey:Okay.
Dr. Vaughn:And I got to literally sit and spend time with three brilliant master herbalists when I lived in Las Vegas, by the grace of God. So I moved back to Kansas City. I start Spirit of Health with my dad uh in a little tiny colon hydrotherapy office in Overland Park. And that was in 2010. And, you know, that was kind of the birth, so to speak, of Spirit of Health. So I had my rebirth at 33, giving my life to the Lord. And then it kind of all started to make sense. It started to click like, oh, wow, I'm passionate about herbs and health, and the Lord wants me to start this thing. And like, oh, this is God. Like, this is really cool. So that's kind of the short version and the testimony of how I came to the Lord and how I started Spirit of Health in 2010.
Rebecca Twomey:That is beautiful, such an amazing testimony. The thing that I love the most about stories like yours is I know I hear this sometimes from Christians that they feel like, especially those that have come from backgrounds where they have experienced the similar things that you went through, where they were, you know, wayward doing whatever they were doing, drinking and drugs and whatnot. And they come into these church environments or these Christian environments, and they feel like, well, I don't fit in here. Everybody's too good. And to hear the realness of us your story and other stories of people that have been through that, and then you know, the Holy Spirit has filled them after, it's so beautiful because that's the thing. All of us have gone through things. The truth is that a lot of people don't talk about it. So I appreciate that your willingness to be open, say, hey, I did these things and I went through these things, and then this is what the Lord did to help pull me out of it and to change my life because I know there are people listening to this that sometimes feel like they can't relate to others because, oh, you haven't gone through these things. Um, but my husband and I talk about this all the time. I think it's more that we don't talk about the dark side enough. Yes, you know, our dark past. We're just kind of like, yeah, I had some years of of this and then this. It's like we we skip over it. So I appreciate your honesty and sharing with people, yeah, I I was in the pits. I lived in Las Vegas, I was I was in it, you know, and the way that the Lord pulled you out of that was incredible.
Dr. Vaughn:Yeah, and I obviously you don't want to give details when you live that kind of life, but like everything they say about Vegas, it's it's true, like it's a dark place. And it is, and I don't encourage people to to to to go there unless you feel called to be there. Like it literally is a very spiritually uh dark place. Um, but just a powerful part of my story and my testimony, and uh so yeah, I I love to share that. I mean, I tell people I I I should have been dead many times. I mean, by the grace of God, I really feel like I'm alive because when you're driving down the interstate at 120 miles an hour, drunk, like you shouldn't be alive. Yeah, and praise God I didn't hurt somebody else. So I I've been in dark, dark places, and so that's why I'm just like wow. And I I want to share this because that is why when you look at spirit of health on our website, on our YouTube, or you listen to a video, I am not shy about Jesus and who I am and what I believe. Like I get emotional just thinking about it because who am I to separate God from my business when by the grace of God I'm even still alive? Yeah, that I'm here, that I'm reborn, that I'm a new person, that you know, I've been saved. And and it's like, wow, I want the whole world to know about that. And I want Jesus, and that's why I think what we do is so unique, is I want Jesus to be the center of everything we do at spirit of health, so that people know about the goodness of God in every way, shape, or form. Because, you know, you get advice from people like, oh, you don't want to talk about God and spiritual things in your business. And I'm like, no, I'm gonna, you know, I'm gonna do that. And so I think that's part of one of the reasons I feel like we are so unique.
Rebecca Twomey:Absolutely. I kind of chuckled a little bit when you had mentioned the girl you were dating at the time thought you were crazy. You know, Rachel and I early on when we first started this podcast, we we use the term weird for Jesus. That's the thing is that when you really are talking about the Lord and you're talking about, you know, just your relationship with Jesus, people are like, All right, you guys, you guys are a little out there, but we're called to be separated from this world. We are not called to be of the world, or you know, uh, so we gotta be a little bit weird, and that's okay. And I think our our audience is is a little weird, right, listeners. So now I'm gonna ask you a lot more. We're doing a little series together, as I mentioned earlier, and I'm gonna ask you a lot more in the second episode about partnering with God in our health, because that is what I think is so super cool about what you're doing at Spirit of Health. But there's a couple more background things that I do want to touch on in this episode that are really fascinating, and one of those is iridology, and that's the study of uh a person's eye to indicate health potential health issues. It's something I've only recently even learned about myself, and so when I learned that you are are practiced in this, I'm like, man, I can't wait to ask questions and talk about this. And whenever I bring this up to people, they're like, I've never heard of that before. I have no idea what you're talking about. So tell us more about iridology and what is what's the scoop on this?
Dr. Vaughn:Cool. Um, I totally will, if you don't mind if I can take a two minutes before I touch on iridology, because I missed a crucial part of, and I don't want to give the whole story, but amazing story of how I met my wife.
Rebecca Twomey:Oh, yeah. We didn't get to your you're right. We didn't get to where you are now.
Dr. Vaughn:Yeah, and my fault. Like, I I my wife was one of my first patients at Spirit of Health. She had a back injury shoveling snow. She's born and raised in Hawaii, she's not supposed to be shoveling snow.
Rebecca Twomey:That's the problem. Yeah, you can't shovel snow when you're from Hawaii. What is she doing not in Hawaii? Come on.
Dr. Vaughn:Yeah, again, good. Well, I'll share real quick. She was married before she was married three months, and her husband was killed in action in Iraq.
Rebecca Twomey:Oh.
Dr. Vaughn:So tragic story. She came to Kansas City to find Jesus.
Rebecca Twomey:Really?
Dr. Vaughn:So there's a place here called the International House of Prayer, which is a global 24-7 ministry. They've been 24-7 praise and worship since 1999.
unknown:Wow.
Dr. Vaughn:So that is an amazing organization here that is literally across the street from us. That's what brought her here. She got injured, shoveling snow. She couldn't get well. She's a physical therapist, she does Pilates, she's brilliant. She went to Duke University. She's still licensed PT. I always tell people she's way smarter than me. Uh, she's an amazing woman. And yeah, she got injured. She wanted to find a naturopath to get better, but she's like, oh, naturopaths are weird. But she saw my website, and oh, like this guy talks about Jesus. I'm gonna go check him out. So that's the story of kind of how we met. And like, God's so redemptive. Like, I felt so much shame and guilt from my first marriage because I selfishly chose to get divorced for no reason without even trying to work on it. And I felt like I don't deserve to get married again. Like, I'm just gonna be Paul and just go after Jesus and just do that, right? But the Lord had other plans, so just amazing confirmation and dreams and how the Lord brought my wife and I together. But now we have three amazing children. Naomi is 10, Noelle is eight, and Nathan's about to turn six. So I am blessed beyond blessed to even be here, to be married again, to have three amazing kids. And so I just at least I'm sorry, I wanted to share that because it's such an important part of who I am.
Rebecca Twomey:It is. I'm I and I I'm so glad that you circled back to that because one other piece I wanted to throw out there is that we could talk all day about birth with you, Dr. Vaughn, or because you know your wife had some home births. Yes, three home births. I love, as you know. So we'll we'll get to that.
Dr. Vaughn:Great, let's get there. But iridology. Okay, so I love this topic. Uh, I'm an iridologist, I've been uh certified in iridology by actually Dr. Ellen Tart Jensen, who is the daughter-in-law to Dr. Bernard Jensen. A lot of people know about Dr. Bernard Jensen. He was big into colon health, he worked with thousands of people in healing their uh bowels specifically. Uh, he pioneered iridology in America. So I went out to San Marcos, California. I got certified in iridology. I've since done a lot of other things with iridology, but it it is literally the reading of the iris of the eye. And it's amazing how much you can see in the eye. And so I am very particular about the things I get into. Like this could be a whole nother podcast, but talking about energy. And I feel like the Lord thrust me into things that so many people are suspicious of. And it's not that you don't have to test the spirits and be mindful of things out there, but like God spoke all things into existence. So that's energy. That's that's a real thing. And so I know a lot of people get weirded out about like, oh, iridology? Are you even a Christian? Like, that's so new age and that's weirdo and whatever. And so I'm very prayerful and mindful about the things I get involved with. And so I prayed. I prayed about iridology. I'm like, this is fascinating, Lord, but is this something you want me to get involved in? And I always seek confirmation from the Lord. I mean, for when I after I got saved for years and years, I got up at 4 a.m. spending time with Jesus for two to three hours every morning, just saying, Who am I, Lord? And what's your purpose for me? And I just got so many profound encounters from the Lord. So I'm praying about Iridology. A lot of people have heard Matthew 6, 22, I think it is, the the uh the eye is the lamp of the body. And if the eye is good, the whole body will be full of light. And I know there's lots of different interpretations related to that scripture. So I felt the Lord highlight that, but I wanted to read this scripture out of Leviticus. Uh and and I don't say this lightly in that when the Lord led me to the scripture, I went into travail. So maybe people know what travail is, maybe not. And again, I don't say that lightly because I don't want to say like this happens to me all the time. It actually hasn't happened a lot, but um, I'm reading this scripture in Leviticus, and I went into travail. In other words, I had a profound encounter with the Lord. And so I thought I'd read this scripture out of Leviticus 21, starting at verse 16. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Speak to Aaron, saying, No man of your descendants in succeeding generations who has any defect may approach to offer the bread of his God. For any man who has a defect shall not approach, a man blind or lame, who has a marred face or any limb too long, a man who has a broken foot or broken hand, or is a hunchback or a dwarf, or a man who has a defect in his eye, or eczema or scab, or is a eunuch. So I read that scripture about who has a defect in his eye and was encountered by the Lord in a dramatic way.
Rebecca Twomey:Oh, I bet.
Dr. Vaughn:Let's state the obvious because of the blood of Jesus, like we're all welcome into the kingdom of God with all of those problems, with all of those defects, with all of those issues. Like, that's how amazing our our God is to bridge that gap even through sin and all the problems going on with humanity right now. But what the Lord's highlighted to me as part of my journey is the importance of our health and the physical body, which often gets missed or overlooked or taken for granted, or hey, it's just there's nothing you can do about it. Things are random, we just don't understand it. There's so much understanding that we can have in how God created us and designed us. Like we're made in his image. Like, wouldn't we want to understand how the body is and how it works? And so it's so fascinating that you can look in the eye and you can see quote unquote defects, problems, health conditions, lots of genetic things you can see in the eye. They're right there. Um, I remember seeing a uh a woman who had a marking in her eye related to a thyroid condition, who had a thyroid condition. And it just so happened that her they that her parents and her grandma was still alive. They all lived here. And her mom and her grandma, I got to look at all three of their eyes. They had the same marking and the same spot in their eye related to thyroid, and they had a generational thyroid condition.
Rebecca Twomey:Wow.
Dr. Vaughn:So you can see genetics in the eye, you can see congestion in the eye. Um it's fascinating. Like, I there's so much you can learn about iridology, um, but it's it's a tool, it's another tool, and you can see problems inside of people's body through the eye. And just think of that concept. Like, who is our God that wouldn't give us some tools or some ways to know about our health and what's going on inside of our body? Like, do we have to have all like man-made technology and testing to learn what's going on in the body? Like, no, actually, we can find out what's going through the body in many different ways. Like, people read people's tongue, people read people's feet. Like people can like if you go to a good Chinese herbalist, he can check your pulse and tell you your life story. And you're like, what? So it's just like it's fascinating. And and I think we should be fascinated with these things because again, we're made in God's image. And so, yeah, there's so much you can find out just through looking at somebody's eye. I even would go to conferences, take my little light, shine it in people's eyes, and be like, Oh, have you had a history of you know, chronic bowel conditions? And they're like, How did you know that? It's like you can see these things in the eye, and the eye can change. And that's a question a lot of people have. You can take a picture of somebody's eye, and if they really work on their health and their health condition, their health issues, eyes can change the coloration. You can see a lot of the congestion, the mucus, the toxins built up in people's body, and you can see it lighten, and you can see eyes even change from green back to blue. So uh it's a good indicator. Again, it's just another tool in the tool belt. It's just one of the many things I use to try to figure out what's going on with people.
Rebecca Twomey:It totally seems like something that the Lord would create. I mean, it's non-invasive. Literally, all you have to do is look at a person's eyeball and look for specific markers. So I've looked into the iridology chart that basically states certain things and certain spots of the eye can indicate certain things, like if it's related to the liver and the kidneys or something of that nature. There was one that I had something, a video I had seen, and something that I read about white dots uh around the bottom portion of the eye could be an indicator that the liver isn't functioning properly. Different things like that. And obviously, I'm not studied on this. This is just I was fascinated by it, wanted to know more about it. So I think it's really cool that you're using this as a tool in the process of helping people figure out what's going on with their health. Because again, you're we're talking about partnering with the Lord, or we're gonna be talking about partnering with the Lord in our health and healing. And I agree with you. I don't think that the Lord would have said, Let me create all these people, and they're gonna wreck themselves because you know they're human beings, and we're gonna need to create all these machines and medications and all these other things in order for them to heal from themselves. I mean, there's there's some aspect of this that's he's he's made it easier than it it than we think that it needs to be.
Dr. Vaughn:Yes, because the Bible that I read says God created everything and said it was good. Yeah, yeah. So I really feel like pretty much like, and then you know, you can argue this if you want, and that'd be a great, you know, theological discussion, but you can argue that pretty much everything we've done past that was not part of God's plan.
Rebecca Twomey:Sure.
Dr. Vaughn:And look where we're at today.
Rebecca Twomey:Yeah. I love that you mentioned that because I always make this joke about pregnancy like, um, yeah, ever god said it was good, except for when you're pregnant, then you have a short term disability. Because that's that's how work, that's how we're. We're qualified as women. That's how we're uh that's that's our style. We're we're disabled because we're pregnant, and it's the most ridiculous thing in the world to me because it's the most beautiful blessing, and our bodies were literally made, we were created to grow and birth these human beings, and our society in Western medicine treats us as if we have a disease, and that that disease needs to be managed. So, anyway, another episode. I'd love to another episode, another time. I won't go on this tangent. Um, but I I think it's really cool that you do use uh iridology, and one other thing you mentioned people think that it's kooky. I've heard the same thing about herbal, you know, herbology and and herbalists. I've heard the same thing about chiropractors and chiropractic. I know there's some chiropractors that use, I forget what it's called, you might know, where they kind of use energy to know what's going on in people's bodies.
Dr. Vaughn:Like they can literally testing applied kinesiology.
Rebecca Twomey:There you go. Some I think it was that first one that you mentioned.
Dr. Vaughn:I do that.
Rebecca Twomey:I do it, and you can use that tool to figure out what is going on with a person without having to, you know, throw them in a CAT scan machine. Totally per se. Just an example. Um, but I guess that's kind of the thing. I mean, if we're weird for Jesus, uh, we are comfortable with this idea that healing and health doesn't have to come from quote doctors in a Western medicine model.
unknown:Right.
Rebecca Twomey:And that's what I love about this audience here is they're that's what they're seeking. That's what they're looking for. They're looking for something outside of this traditional model where you go in and you talk to somebody, and then they say, Well, I'll send you to somebody else, I'll send you to a specialist, and then you go to them and and they don't have an answer for you, and you get all this testing done, and you get these blood results, and and where does it go? You're you're in a loop.
Dr. Vaughn:So I have a question for you. Do you know what the word doctor means? Tell me the Greek root word for doctor means a teacher.
Rebecca Twomey:Interesting.
Dr. Vaughn:So a doctor's job is to teach somebody how to be healthy, how to be wealthy. And so what doctors should be first and foremost doing is educating. And so if you look at our our culture of the medical system we've created today, how much good wisdom and education are doctors providing to their patients? And again, that's why what we do is so unique, is it's about education and empowerment. Like, yes, I work with people with chronic illness, uh, but I educate them along the way to the point where not only are they so much better than when we started, but we've actually taught and empowered them to take care of themselves, their own health, their family, their whole lives, the rest of their lives. And I don't say this uh, you know, I really like try to say this with all humility, because I respect many doctors and nurses in our medical system and what they do. And so I have a profound uh respect for so many people in that field. Uh, but I have a wife and three children, and we've never once needed medical care outside of what we can do for ourselves in our own home. And so, you know, we when people are empowered with, you know, herbs and therapies and techniques and nutrition and different things that they can do, then we can take care of our own families. And and we're supposed to be able to do that because, you know, are we reliant on God and our own wisdom and knowledge? Are we reliant on this other system? And so the more reliant we are on things outside of God's creation and design, the more bad things that can happen. And you can certainly have seen what's happened with that in the last three years, especially, if you know what I mean. So, you know, there's just a real uh awakening that needs to happen where we're educating people so that they can be their own doctors because they're educated on how to take care of themselves and their family. So that's a huge part of what we do is yes, how do I get somebody better with chronic illness? Like there's lots of things we can do with that, but at the end of the day, I want them well and I want them empowered to teach their family and to spread the message to others so we can get out of and off of a man-made medical system and get back to God's system, which He gave us everything we needed. We have it all in from the beginning, and it is good.
Rebecca Twomey:Absolutely. That you you couldn't have said it better. And Rachel and I actually just got finished uh with an episode on Western medicine, the roots of it. Specifically, we're talking about Rockefeller and kind of yeah, the we're going deep. We we go deep and how the typical system, the system that most of us are programmed into from very young age, it's about profit. And I think that you're right to say, you know, and I don't I one of my favorite cousins is a doctor, and I know her heart, and I know what she wants to do is help people. Yes. Just like my friends that have worked in other aspects of the medical field that are nurses and things like that, they have a good heart, they want to help people, but they're in a system that is not designed that way. It is not that's not how it functions. It's not it's not what you're doing at Spirit of Health, where you're empowering and teaching people about their bodies and teaching them about how to heal themselves. It is a very different model. So, you know, that's kind of that was one of the questions I had for you was on what Western medicine is missing. And we joked that we could make that a whole 45-minute episode. And I don't want to skip over some of the other stuff that we wanted to talk about, but that's kind of where we're at, I think, in our conversation a little bit, is that is what I think is missing in today's world, is just that I think the enemy has infiltrated traditional medicine a bit. And, you know, there are good folks, and we don't want to ignore the folks that are good, but there are also uh people that I think have been led by the enemy to say, yeah, I can clone and I can, you know, I can I can do what God can do. You know, I can control this and and we can control this, and it's it's it can be very dark at the same time.
Dr. Vaughn:Well, I mean you you hit the nail on the head because at the at the end of the day, that that's what this whole battle is all about. Who who's in charge? Yeah, the exaltation of man or the exaltation of God. Absolutely so this might be a good time to mention my my vision and my mission. Yeah, can I share that?
Rebecca Twomey:Go for it.
Dr. Vaughn:So our vision, and you've been you've been actually saying it. Our vision is partnering with God to bring healing and restoration to all creation. So a vision is supposed to be a big thing. So I think that's a pretty big statement. And of course, with God, all things are possible, and so we just want to partner with God in bringing healing as much as we possibly can because this world needs a lot of healing and it can't really do it without the Lord. But our mission is to declare God's rightful place in medicine through education and empowerment. So we believe, so this is just right in line with what you're talking about is I want to declare that God is the healer, he's still on the throne. It's impossible for man to heal anybody because I a man, a person didn't create you.
Rebecca Twomey:Yes.
Dr. Vaughn:So that person can't heal you. The only one that can heal you is God, because he's the creator. He created a body that can heal itself.
Rebecca Twomey:He can't yeah.
Dr. Vaughn:So that's all God. And so so we want to declare that that his rightful place in medicine has been usurped, you know, that that man wants to be in charge and wants to be the know it all and wants to have all the answers. And we're like, no, no, God had all the answers, still has all the answers, and we'll be the only one that ever has all the answers. And so we want to educate and empower people that that truth that we have lost our way, uh, especially when it comes to medicine. So, how do we get that back? And then our creed, if I can just mention our 11 statements, which we can get into more in the future because each one is so rich. But a creed is a set of we believe statements. So these are the things we believe at spirit of health. And so, number one is we believe Jesus Christ is the source of all life and healing. Two is we believe God heals through miracles and through obeying his laws of creation. So, yes, God is a God of miracles, and this is just a huge point, especially in the body of Christ. Like, we don't have a free past just to do whatever we want whenever we want. Like, there are consequences to doing things that can hurt you. Like, I wouldn't just go drink gasoline out of the pump because that can really damage this body that God created. So, we do have to obey certain laws, or we're gonna suffer the consequences of it. A great example of that is the zoo. You can't take a lion, put it in a zoo, and feed it Cheetos and Doritos and Coca-Cola because you will cause sickness and eventual death to that animal way before, you know, his time. So, so number three is we believe health and freedom is our birthright. Number four, we believe God designed the body to heal itself. I mean, that that's such an amazing thing. Like this body is designed to heal itself. We cut our arm, we have a hundred percent confidence that that's gonna fully heal. Yet we have this thyroid condition that's a little off, and the doctor says it's a mystery, we don't know why, and you're gonna have to take this drug and you're gonna have to take it the rest of your life because there's no cure. Like that just doesn't compute with me at all. Uh, number five, we believe true healing is in body, soul, and spirit. So we definitely have to look just beyond the physical body. We have to look at the mind and our emotions, and and clearly there's there's spiritual components as well to our health. Number six is we believe the body understands the intelligence of God's creation over man-made synthetics. So we believe herbs have more inherent intelligent wisdom for the body than pharmaceutical drugs. Number seven is we believe God has given us all medicine needed for health and healing. Just like we said, God created all, he said it's good. Herbs are for us, he created them for us. I've done whole videos going through scriptures of why God gave us all the medicine we need, and it's clearly pointed out in the Bible. It is for us. This whole earth was created for us. So thinking that herbs are some non-Christian thing, again, I believe is uh is just blinders over people's understanding of how God created the world for us. Number eight is we believe cleansing and detoxification is the key to purification and restoration of the temple. So I'm huge into cleansing. Like there are toxins and poisons interfering with how God designed the body to work. And we have to clear those toxins and poisons out to restore health. And that's something modern medicine does not teach people at all. In fact, they often condemn or ridicule cleansing and detoxification. And I think that's because it's actually the key to somebody getting well.
Rebecca Twomey:Yes, yes.
Dr. Vaughn:Number nine, we believe disease is a result of toxicity in body, soul, and spirit. Number 10, we believe pain is an indicator. And this is a great one because I'm so thankful for pain. People like, wow, that's the most insane statement ever. Like, what's the number one selling pharmaceutical classification of drugs on the market? Painkillers. So thank God for pain. Because guess what? If we didn't, if God didn't create the body to experience pain, we would all be dead so long ago because of all the crazy things that we do.
Rebecca Twomey:Yeah.
Dr. Vaughn:So pain's actually an indicator to tell you that there's a problem. It's like the engine light coming on in your car. So are you going to address it because there's a problem? Are you going to cut the wire and pretend like there's not really a problem? So pain is an indicator. And I think that's crucial to understand like that we can believe that there's good things that can come out of pain if we look at it from a godly perspective. And then the last one, number 11, is we believe our choices directly impact our health and the health of future generations. And this would get into everything you love about moms and pregnancy and having healthy children, and just how many things are in the way of us not only having an amazing birth experience, but having healthy children because the enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy. And there's so many things working against us right now in life and bringing forth life onto this earth. So those are our 11 we believe statements or and or what we call our creed. And yeah, we could easily do a podcast on each one of those.
Rebecca Twomey:Absolutely. Absolutely, we can. There's so many things that I want to dig into those. I'm glad you mentioned it here because we are, and I and listeners keep listening. Uh, we're going to address a little bit more in this episode, but we're going to get into some of this stuff in the next episode of this series. So stay tuned for more on that. I have, I'm sure people have a million questions after that, that things that we want to talk about. But I wanted to refocus a little bit as we wrap up this episode on the this idea of root cause and chronic illness. A lot of people have, I love that you you said pain is a great thing because it's an indicator of something. And a lot of times people have pain and they go take Tylenol or whatever they're going to take, right to suppress that pain. And they'll do that for years. And I'm not going to name names, but there's someone in my life that uh this is the scenario. It's like every day a headache, and then takes something for that headache. And as I've gotten more into understanding the body, it's what are you drinking enough water? Are you getting sunlight? What are you eating? You know, all of these kinds of things. And then come to find out this person was experiencing toxicity issues. And that's the thing is that the pain and the symptoms that we have are an indicator of a problem. And what you do that I love is your goal is getting to the root cause.
Speaker 1:Right.
Rebecca Twomey:What is the root cause of your illness? Because the symptom isn't the problem, it's there's something else that's causing it. So talk to us a little bit about some of the common issues, these common problems that you run into the most. I know there's a lot, there's a lot of things that you see, but what are some that are common? I'd imagine thyroid issues. Um, I know Lyme disease is a big thing that people have problems with, and even mold exposure. So talk to me about what you see.
Dr. Vaughn:Yes. Great question. You definitely hit on a couple of them. This is why I love what we do, and I feel like it's such a blessing because people are chronically ill and they don't know why. They don't have any answers. They go to the doctor, and like you said, they're giving immunosuppressants because it's autoimmune, painkillers to take care of the pain, steroids to help deal with the the pain or the or the or the skin condition or whatever. And they're suffering. And so, why are people suffering? And so the the quick answer to that is toxicity. And so the medical system does not check for why people are sick, which is mind-boggling. Because why wouldn't you want to know why you have this XYZ labeled disease?
Rebecca Twomey:Like nobody should because there's no money in that. Sorry.
unknown:True.
Dr. Vaughn:So we should not be labeled, nobody should have a label of an illness because that's not who you are. Yeah, and that was not God's plan for you at all. And so the reasons people are sick, we test for those things. We do lab tests that check for toxicity, and it's easy to do. I can do it to anyone, anywhere. I got a couple I'm working with right now in Nigeria. So you can live anywhere in the world and do these things. And just a quick story, because I think testimonies are real powerful, which highlights this, and I could share so many of these stories. But we have a mom named Casey living in the state of Washington in her early 30s with three children. Her mom is living with her because she's so chronically ill she can't take care of her own children. She's losing weight. Her color of her skin is like pale gray, and she literally feels like she's ready to meet Jesus. Doctors have no answers whatsoever. I'm the first one that even mentioned that mold. And so we did some lab testing and okra toxin A, which is an aspergillus mold, the toxic level of aspergillus mold in this particular test is 7.5. Her aspergillus mold, okrotoxin A level was 243.
Rebecca Twomey:Oh my.
Dr. Vaughn:And that was one of nine mold toxins that showed up on her test, including black.
Rebecca Twomey:Wow.
Dr. Vaughn:So for the first time in her life, you know, it didn't immediately solve the problem, right? But for the first time, she had the root cause, the why.
Rebecca Twomey:Why she was sick, what was making her sick, and then the next step healing.
Dr. Vaughn:That alone creates hope.
Rebecca Twomey:Yep.
Dr. Vaughn:Empowers somebody to do a course of action to know what to do. Now you know what you can research and and learn about. And I I mean, it just that even if she didn't continue working with me, that was so transformational. But her story's so cool because now it's three years later. I've tested her mold levels multiple times. She had nine high mold markers, eight of them are zero. And the okra toxin A that was 243 is down to 10.
Rebecca Twomey:Amazing.
Dr. Vaughn:And she's writing, I don't know if she finished it, but she's writing a book called From Mold to Gold. I love it. Got encountered by Jesus during a cleanse she was doing, and the Lord said, I'm healing you.
unknown:Wow.
Dr. Vaughn:And so to me, God can heal with a miracle in the moment, and you don't have cancer anymore. But I also believe her testimony is a miracle of God.
Rebecca Twomey:Yeah.
Dr. Vaughn:If you actually get to the root cause of why you're sick, you go through the treatments and the things you need to do to get well, it transforms your life, your family, others around you. I mean, that to me is a miracle. And so to answer your question, because I'm often long-winded in these things.
Rebecca Twomey:That's okay. I actually have follow-up questions for you on this one too, if we want to pause there. Because we're going to talk more about food in the next episode and um cleansing and things of that nature, and using herbs. But that is what happened with this client of yours, is that you used food. God created herbs, vegetables, foods, you know, what we eat here on earth. You used what the Lord created to help her heal her body. She was able to heal her body through what she put into it. Correct?
unknown:Yeah.
Dr. Vaughn:Yes, and that and that's part of it. Like the diet's crucial to not make your condition worse.
Rebecca Twomey:Sure.
Dr. Vaughn:And the diet's crucial not to be consuming things that feed into the problem. But the food itself, like, it isn't bad, you know, because she couldn't eat bread because she had mold, like, bread's not a bad thing, but is your body able to process it? And if anybody has any food allergies, any food sensitivities, any foods they can't eat, the problem is the chronic uh toxicity in the person's body, the inability of the body to process that thing.
Rebecca Twomey:Yeah.
Dr. Vaughn:So mold, chronic infection. So I've seen over 10,000 people in 12 years.
unknown:Okay.
Dr. Vaughn:So what have I seen the most in 12 years?
Rebecca Twomey:Oh, yeah. Tell me.
Dr. Vaughn:Mold? Lyme disease. But there's two things that trump both of those. The number one thing I've dealt with and I've seen in the most people in all my years is parasites. There you go. The irony of it that the medical system almost laughs at people when they mention having parasites, or like that's something that only animals have, or that's a third-world problem. No, it is an epidemic crisis that people have parasites. I have not that you'd want to see them, but I have a folder with thousands of pictures of things that have come out of the human body. It's it's mind-boggling. So if you study parasitology and what parasites are and what they do, because parasite is Greek and it means to dine at another's table. And so, yeah, parasites, mold, Lyme disease, chronic infections is hands down the number one issue plaguing humanity right now. And going back, the root cause, the reason is the unhealthy condition, the environment inside of our body that's conducive to allowing those chronic infections to actually live in that body. So that's part of what we're doing, is we're cleansing the whole, you have to treat the whole person. You don't just go in and kill parasites.
Rebecca Twomey:Yeah.
Dr. Vaughn:That's part of it. But you have to get the person's body well. I have seen hundreds, thousands, probably, I mean hundreds of kids. I don't know how many, you know, adults, kids. I I work with a lot of children. The number one thing I've seen clear eczema in children is a parasite cleanse. I had a five-year-old girl.
Rebecca Twomey:I'm upset that Rachel is not on today because her children literally have parasites right now. Okay. Like I'm not even, I'm not even exaggerating. She would be okay with me sharing this. But her one of her sons has been struggling with eczema and skin issues. The other one, same thing. And they came to her one day and said, Mom, I found stuff in my in my potty, you know, in my number two.
unknown:Yes.
Rebecca Twomey:And she's like, show me. But they always would flush it first. And then one day she finally got a peek and was like, oh man. And so she knows that's what they're going through. Um, I'm not sure if they've been able to clear it with what they've been using, but I'm I'm so upset that she's not feeling good and can't be here to talk to you about this.
Dr. Vaughn:Yeah, well, it's it's very, very real. Five-year-old girl, head-to-toe eczema, itching so bad. Um, it was bleeding, uh, couldn't sleep at night. So guess what? The whole family wasn't sleeping at night. So the family, devastated by this girl's condition, uh, ended up working with her for, you know, probably a good year, but I'll never forget the very first parasite cleanse. A children's 18-day parasite cleanse, her skin cleared up about 70%. She started sleeping through the night, and it totally changed their entire family because she did one $30 cleanse. And so that this is the the again, the tragedy, oftentimes, of the modern medical system to not find the root cause of what's going on, to not know how to treat it properly, and how many people's lives are upside down and they're not doing the things that they're called to do because they're dealing with these health conditions because they have no answers.
Rebecca Twomey:I want to ask you real quick about this five-year-old and the cleanse that she did. What type of herbs are were in that cleanse, if you don't mind me asking?
Dr. Vaughn:Well, on our website, we do have a couple of children's uh parasite cleanses. One is just very simply called children's parasite cleanse, and then we have an advanced one. But the children's parasite cleanse is just an herbal parasite formula, it's got diatomaceous earth in it, okay, um, to add to it. Um, but just some of your traditional herbs that work for parasites that a lot of people might be aware of if you get into parasite cleansing, like black walnut and cloves, and so a fairly simple formula, and then you know, just pair that with diet.
Rebecca Twomey:Okay, and it works. What does that do? Those herbs, when they go into someone's body who has a parasite, do they like scare the parasite out?
Dr. Vaughn:No, it kills them. No, it's it literally kills them.
Rebecca Twomey:Okay.
Dr. Vaughn:I would love to do a whole podcast just on parasites because this is like such a fascinating topic that we just can't dive into because there's so much there. But no, the herbs literally kill parasites. And what people don't understand about parasites is they're they can be anywhere in the body, they can be in the liver, in the lungs, and the skin. I've had seen people parasites come out of people's noses. I mean, I can tell you parasite stories for for days.
Speaker 1:Sure.
Dr. Vaughn:Um, but parasites actually embed themselves in the colon wall, so they're not just like floating in the colon, like hanging around. I really dig into enemas and and really advanced things to get parasites out of people's bodies because they they don't want to die, they they want to live and survive in your body. So it's a gross topic and it's a hard topic, but man, I talk about this stuff every day with people. So it doesn't freak me out at all. I'm fascinated by it. I just want people to get to get well. Sure. So it kills the parasites.
Rebecca Twomey:I have another follow-up question real quick on parasites and where they come from. Where are people getting these parasites from? Now, I'm gonna just throw a theory at you first so that you can tell me whether you think this is partially true or not. But I I've experienced a lot of friends whose kids have gone through, I'm gonna censor myself, the V schedule, and their kids have ended up with skin issues like eczema. And after doing cleanses, they have cleared. So it almost kind of indicates to me, I wonder if something in that is causing parasites inside of the body. And I also mentioned to you when I had my first daughter when I was pregnant with her, they gave me a rogam shot, which has a human blood product in it, which I I do not, I've never gotten that um injection again once I really went through this experience and learned about it. But I didn't know what I know now, right? And when I had that skin reaction, it felt like I had something crawling underneath my skin. You know, I almost thought it was scabies because that's the only condition that I know of that was similar to what I was experiencing. But I felt like there was a living being crawling underneath my skin. And I did a dandelion root cleanse and it cleansed whatever was happening out of my system. But I can't help but wonder if these injections that we're getting into our body are also inserting parasites into us. Just a theory.
Dr. Vaughn:Yeah, it's a good one. And I I probably don't want to go down that rabbit hole. Right now. There's a lot of controversy around it. And if you if you watch my YouTube channel, you will see I'm not shy in speaking out against injections of all sorts. Because you don't see a man in a white lab coat with a needle in the Garden of Eden. Like it's not part of the biblical story.
Rebecca Twomey:No, it is not.
Dr. Vaughn:It's not at all.
unknown:No.
Dr. Vaughn:And so again, I I'd be another podcast, another time, you know, getting into the the theories and the understanding of do we need those things at all or not? Or what about the good ones? Or what about a delayed schedule? Blah blah blah. I'd love to talk about all that because I'm very passionate about it. Um the bottom line is it's it's and I did a video on five biblical reasons not to do that.
Rebecca Twomey:Great, great. I'll link that. I'll link that in the show notes.
Dr. Vaughn:Yeah, link that video. I go through the Bible and I'm be like, this is evidence on why we should not be doing these things to our children or ourselves. And so I'd encourage people to check that out. And uh, and yeah, so the bottom line is you can't put toxins and poisons in the body, especially you can't violate the bloodstream because the life of all flesh is in the blood, in the blood. So as soon as you start violating the bloodstream, you're violating God's design and purposes of how things are supposed to work. There's a natural order to how the earth and our bodies are supposed to interact together. And once you start to circumvent that natural order, bad things happen. And so I will just say it that way. Um, but yeah, to answer your question on where parasites come from, uh they so anybody who's ever traveled overseas, any if you have pets, and I'm sorry for you cat lovers out there, but cats are the absolute worst when it comes to parasites. Rachel has two cats. And I tell people never ever pick up or touch a stray cat. And I mean it because like I have had really, really challenging, tragic stories to what has happened to some people just because they picked up a stray cat and got scratched. I mean, literally devastating their entire health. So you have to be really careful of, and so everybody encounters them. So it's not that we're not going to encounter parasites. Everybody's going to encounter them. But what's the state of your health? What's the state of your body? You know, is it a home or a host where they can live and survive? And if you go back old school, people didn't run to the doctor all the time. They lived out in the country, they lived on farms, they had to learn how to take care of themselves. Doing a parasite cleanse was a normal thing that you did for your entire family at least a couple times a year. And so, why would it not be necessary, even more so, in today's culture of all the toxins and poisons that are being thrown at us? Uh, these things are going to get in the body and they're going to take root. And I don't want to be one of those that's like everybody has parasites, but the reality is 70% of parasites are smaller than the eye can see. They're microscopic. So, yes, everybody does have some level or form of parasites in their body, in their bloodstream. But are they in check or are they allowed to grow out of control? And of course, parasite cleanses, you can see the big ones, the hook, hookworms and the tapeworms and the flukes and all those kind of things. But the little ones, man, I deal with that so much with people with bloodborne diseases of the bloodstream related to parasites and different things. So, yeah, everybody encounters them. You're going to have more exposure. Like, how many people have come to me because they're like, my health seemed fine? And then I went on this mission trip to Thailand. When I came back, my health's been a problem ever since. So I hear that story over and over and over again. And I have such a heart for the body of Christ. Like we're going out on missions to spread the gospel of Jesus. Are we prepared to take care of our health? Are we prepared to encounter these things that we've never encountered before? Are we taking precautions to cleanse ourselves and heal ourselves and keep our bodies free of these foreign toxins that we're encountering all the time overseas? So that's another just really important topic.
Rebecca Twomey:Yes. Yes, fantastic. I know we want to get to so many more things. So we're gonna wrap right before we do. I have one last comment about the mold thing. Years ago, I mean, I'm talking 15 years ago, the truth about what happened to, I don't know if you remember that actress Britney Murphy who passed away. She technically died from toxic mold exposure. But if you look into her story, it's been so censored now that she got pneumonia eventually from how sick she was from this toxic mold exposure, that they say she died from pneumonia. And her mother-in-law, who lived in the same house as her, ended up the same condition. The toxic mold got to her. They say she died from pneumonia as well. And so I think the only reason I mention this is that a lot of times people can think that, well, that seems uncommon. That's not gonna happen to me. It happens to people, yeah. But because we don't talk about it, and you know, celebrity gossip is celebrity gossip, right? They're gonna censor and do whatever they're gonna do with whatever stories they have about people's deaths. Um, but when it first came out, there was clear language about what really went on with her and her health. And so anyway, these things can eat your can't eat your body to the point of you're just so sick that then you get other illnesses and stuff. So just a story I was thinking about as as we were talking about toxic mold. So glad you're helping people get that on control.
Dr. Vaughn:Yeah, I had not heard that. And yeah, it, you know, mold is you know, circling back real quick just to finalize this this thought process is that infectious disease, mold, Lyme disease, parasites. Uh I highlight that because it's such a big deal. But heavy metal poisoning, mercury, aluminum, lead, those are real issues. Chemical toxicity, herbicides, pesticides, glyphosate, parabens, on and on and on. Uh, that's another big deal. Radioactive elements. I work with quite a few people that have uranium toxicity, cesium. Okay, where are these things coming from? Our world is just very toxic today. So, going back to root cause, why people are sick, it's those things. And the medical system doesn't test for those. And what all of those things do, like you mentioned the mold story with uh Brittany Murphy, it suppresses the immune system. When you suppress the immune system, you're vulnerable to all types of things, which is why there's so much sickness out there today.
Rebecca Twomey:Absolutely. Well, stay tuned, friends, because we're going to continue with Dr. Vaughn in this series. So tune in next week. Thank you for being here on this episode. Dr. Vaughn, this has been awesome. And thank you all for tuning in and being on this journey with us. If you'd like to follow along outside the podcast, join the mission, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, at the Radiant Mission. And if you're loving the show, we highly encourage you to share it with a friend. Today we are going to be closing with a verse that Dr. Vaughn shared is the goal of his practice to help usher in the second coming of Christ in body, soul, and spirit, and that is 1 Thessalonians 5.23. May God Himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul, and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. And we're wishing you a radiant week. We'll see you next time.
