Making a living doing what we love : Chinese medicine and business
I teach the business curriculum at NCNM to all the Chinese medicine students. I’m currently preparing to revise my previous curriculum in preparation for the next class this summer. At the same time, I am fielding a *lot* of personal questions from people in all phases of their careers about how to do various things in business. I’m getting something like a dozen questions a day via Twitter, Facebook, email and face-to-face interactions. That’s quite an increase in interest! All these questions, as well as those that naturally come up as I seek to take my own businesses to the next level, have me thinking...

Deepest Health Chinese Medicine Podcast 28 – Why should you care about acupuncture professional associations like the AAAOM?
Chinese Medicine Central Podcast 28 is chiefly taken up by my conversation spurred by this Acupuncture Today article concerning the disorganization and recent organizational dysfunction of the American Association of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (AAAOM). In that section, I believe I make a fairly compelling case for why you SHOULD care about national professional organizations, why we should think of ourselves as a profession at all, and a couple of quick ways you can (and should) get involved on the state or national level. At some point in recording this, I realized that I probably made a fairly good case for my bei...

Comprehensive review of the digital versions of Peter Deadman’s manual of acupuncture
It’s no surprise to anyone who reads Chinese Medicine Central regularly that I’m more of an herbs guy than an acupuncture guy. I deeply respect the modality, however, and do seek to extend my understanding of it with each treatment I give. My time devoted to study of acupuncture is minuscule compared to the time I give to studying herbs. Despite this (or perhaps because of it?) Peter Deadman’s Manual of Acupuncture is one of my most commonly referenced texts on any given day. He made the basic information (location, names, indications) so simple to reference, while also giving plenty of deeper cuts into h...

Receiving the wild heart of medicine : Earth
This is the third in a series of posts engaging with the five elemental phases in a visceral, symbolic way. You can find the post on the wood phase element by clicking here, and the post on the fire element by clicking here. With each of these posts, I catch myself wanting to start by saying how special the current element is, how different from the others! It’s true, each one is incredibly distinct, a separate universe. What does water know of fire, or fire of water? Yes, each is special–just as special as everybody else. Each a perfect child in the eyes of all-embracing mother earth. Earth is simple–so glor...

Deepest Health Podcast Episode 27 – Chinese medicine and vegan or vegetarian diets
In this episode of the Chinese Medicine Central podcast, I’ve decided to revisit the topic of one of the most popular posts on the site over the last 7 years. In that article, I discuss how a person who chooses to follow a vegan diet can do so in line with basic Chinese medicine philosophy. It was written some time ago, during which time I was a devoted vegan (and had been for many years). I figured it was time for an update. There was a little bit of trouble with the audio in this podcast, which I tried to clear up. But, if you hear any distortions or odd pitch changes, know that I am aware of the problem and will b...

Wiser Gentlemen: The Shen Chinese Herb Posse
Founders note: This is a guest post by second year Chinese medicine student Derek Henderlong. Please do add your comments to the post, he is excited to learn from your contributions. “…It is said that there is a king ginseng in each field which supervises the growth of the rest, and in Korea it is believed that, in order to thrive, the ginseng has to hear each day the footsteps of its cultivator” ~Dixon Before I began my formal studies in Chinese medicine, I was already unknowingly following the golden walkway of medicine unfolding beneath my feet. I found myself eager to receive my weekly acupuncture. The benefits...
