- Bladder 1 and Bladder 2 - Online CEU
Excerpt:
“The bladder is the night watchman. Pang guang is the word for bladder in Chinese. Pang is a vesseled space, a container. Guang is in a lot of GB points, and is an alternate name for GB 24 sun and moon. The character either means a person carrying a torch, or a person with their head on fire, in which case they may be a human torch. It is translated as light, radiance, brilliance, light bearer.
That is the bladder: pang: a vesseled space, guang, light. It’s a night light. It’s the light in the darkness. It’s the stars in the sky. It’s the campfire in the dark. It’s all about light in winter.”

- 5 Element Treatment Protocols - Online CEU
This class is a fundamental introduction to 5 Element Treatment Protocols for acupuncturists who are new to the 5 element approach.
Excerpt:
“The Constitutional Factor (CF) is the primary cause not only of the client’s illness, but of the client’s health. It is like a first domino in a long chain reaction. This domino did not fall down long ago in the past, leaving us the pieces to pick up now; it is continuing to fall down potentially every moment of the client’s life, thus every time knocking right back down again every domino that we pick up. This is why, although symptomatic treatments may bring dramatic immediate results, the effects are relatively temporary. The root disharmony will keep on producing a chain reaction of illness, until it begins to heal.
Healing is not a removal of illness; it is journey toward virtue, or greater and greater alignment with Tao. Once the CF is oriented towards this journey of healing, this too has a profound chain reaction effect. If, at any time, there is any way that we can access the deep power of the core virtue to help shift another Element towards virtue, this is always preferable, and most likely to be an enduring shift.”
