Newsletter Series

Within Chinese medicine, health is not simply the absence of disease, it is a dynamic changing state that embodies efficient living and allows us to fulfill our potential. There are actually a small number of important things that we can do that are necessary for this. Every day in the office I discuss some of these things with people and see how well they work. The nice thing about traditional Chinese medicine is, even though it may sound different or even esoteric at first, it is first and foremost practical and adaptable; it is about what works over the long term.
With this in mind I have decided to write a series of newsletter articles on the methods, practices and approaches to health that are laid out in the classical texts and are applied to our modern lives. The first newsletter in this series will be emailed out soon.
This series will encompass the following topics:
Living with Awareness
Following the Seasons / Natural Rhythms
Food and Nutrition
Restorative Practices
Movement / Physical Training
Health Interventions
The primary themes within all of these interrelated topics are awareness, simplicity and effectiveness.
