The course focuses on what may be puzzling concepts, starting from accurate references to the Classics, to the exploring of contemporary clinical use.<\/p>\n
We explore shen in many contexts: Shen as extra-ordinary, that which is beyond yin and yang, does not belong to this world of the ten thousands\u2014the world of differentiation, of shapes, of transformation; Shen as the most subtle of the three treasure (shen-qi-jing); Shen as vitality\/life (in eyes, pulse, tongue, etc); Its functions (cognitive functions, consciousness, wisdom and intuitive knowledge, integration of the emotions, perception); Its significance in individuals and its relation with the psycho-emotional disorders.<\/p>\n
We also explore the Hun and the Po, a couple whose meaning and functions may be vague and confusing. We explore their relation with jing and shen and what is meant by: \u201chun enters po and po holds hun\u201d, \u201cthey are the light and the dark side of the moon\u201d, \u201chun is the flame of po; po is the root of hun\u201d, \u201cpo as remembering on the inside, hun as governing movement and action\u201d.<\/p>\n
We also examine their clinical use by looking at disorders in which patients suffer of conditions as a lost contact with reality, anorexia, obsessive thought, somatic disorders, violent behavior, etc. Clinical examples will be discussed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
