In case you thought these quotes may have been taken out of context, these are from a lengthy newsletter she published last year and here's the context (see another comment below for the full newsletter, it's all like this):
"I believe the body is the material structure through which we can connect with the universal field of Spirit (or God by any definition you prefer - I am using it in the broadest metaphysical sense). Perhaps the body is simply the material “radio receiver” through which we can “tune in” to the divine. In a dualistic reality, there is the body and soul, and maybe our human predicament that comes with us at birth is that as our big brains grow, we forget we are more than just a body. Because of this, we pursue logic and pleasure over true happiness and spiritual development, and we trash our bodies. "
"Light comes from stars and travels millions and billions of miles to connect with our bodies and control our biology. Light transforms into chemical bonds in the chloroplasts of plants on earth to create structure in the material world. Our human bodies emit photons from the mitochondria when we break down molecules to create energy. Molecules on planet earth that dim the mitochondria’s ability to emit light. Light controls our thoughts and biology through Circadian biology and clock genes. The future of medicine will be about light. I don’t exactly know how yet.
For humans, we know our light will re-integrate with the world and the universe at death. We are the creatures who know that we can emit more light, like stars, if we are metabolically healthy. This health allows our brains to work functionally and tap into deep intuition and spiritual guidance which can change the world for the better. But we also know we have the power to destroy the world. That is our gift and our burden. We must choose. "
