Z'ev workshop

[Guest guest]

CHA friends,

 

I will be conducting a five-day intensive workshop entitled ¡°TRANSMUTATIONS

, TIMING

AND STATES OF CHANGE : THE DYNAMIC MODEL OF CHINESE MEDICAL DIAGNOSIS AND

TREATMENT¡±

 

It will take place in Taos, New Mexico,at Redwing Book Company as part of their

education. The dates are Sunday, August 20, through Thursday, August 24, 2006.

The

workshop will include morning herbal excursions into mountains and

deserts,afternoon

and evening lectures.

 

 

 

I intend to continue his annual tradition of combining classical Chinese medical

studies

with herbal excursions on mountain and valley trails, wildcrafting local

medicinal species

that are similar to those recorded in Chinese medical texts. This year, I will

offer a fresh

pespective on the Shang Han Lun and Nan Jing, focusing on six-channel and

five-phase

theory. The emphasis will be placed on gaining an in-depth understanding of the

transformation of disease phases, and applying these dynamic models in diagnosis

and

treatment.

 

Each Morning the class will head up the canyons into the mountains to harvest

herbs. In

the afternoons following lunch, there will be classroom study at Redwing¡¯s

passive solar

location in Taos. New Mexico¡¯s northern high desert and mountain ranges are an

unspoiled treasure house of potent herbs nurtured by the high altitude, strong

sunlight,

and sharp temperature changes of the region. The contrasts of altitude,

rainfall, and

sunlight have created several distinct zones with a variety of medicinal plants

found in few

other locales. The staggering beauty of the area calms the mind and increases

receptivity

to studying the traditions of Chinese medicine.

 

Taos, New Mexico, is one of the premier western wild- crafting sites. I lived

for seven

years in New Mexico and ten years in Colorado before moving to San Diego to

chair the

Department of Herbal Medicine at Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in 1990.

During my

years in the Southwest, while studying and practicing Chinese medicine, I also

learned to

identify, wild-craft, and use local Rocky Mountain medicinals. I return every

summer to

these mountains to continue my herbal ¡°vision quest.¡± This year, you are once

again

invited to join in.

Doug,

 

So now it appears that CHA members ARE allowed to advertise their goods

and services on the CHA forum. Excellent. I look forward to using this venue

for that purpose.

 

Thanks,

 

Bob

Bob,

I asked specific permission to do so, and, quite frankly, I'd

love to be notified of your workshops via CHA.

The guidelines remain the same. Posts must be written in the first person

addressed to

CHA members without the times and money involved. Keep in brief. Tell us where,

when

and what it is about. If I don't see gross violations I may let things through

just because

it's a hassle to engage with the writer.

Bob, and anyone else, if you plan to use this venue " to advertise (your) goods

and

services " then you will not be allowed to post. I don't have time nor patience

for filtering

those who want to abuse what discussions we have. Sorry to be testy, but if you

meant

this to be cute then put a ;-).

clear?
