Course Overview

When’s the last time you were helped by the carefully memorized statement: “The Lungs go up and out?”

 

This class explains how, in our modern times, the words “Channel Qi” have been intentionally omitted, rendering many of our lessons senseless.

 

For example, most of the aphorisms and axioms that we learn in school refer vaguely to “Qi” or specific organs. These axioms are so vague as to be meaningless in many cases.

 

By re-inserting the words “Channel Qi” into these “rules” of TCM, we can see how these axioms are helpful and provide constant reminders that we are supposed to be aware of the flow patterns of our patients’ channel Qi, using that information diagnostically and in guiding our treatment choices.

Reviews

  • Carol S. (United States of America)

    This course made 10 years of schooling and professional practice SUDDENLY make the practice of acupuncture make logical, predictable sense. I am not exaggerating when I say this course changed my entire outlook on what it is to be an acupuncturist, and what it is to practice acupuncture. I'm amazed. This little course might just profoundly change how you think and approach your practice.
