CHA personal intro. + advice for traveling in India??

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

 

My name is Carl Stimson, I'm in my last semester at World Medicine Institute in

Honolulu Hawaii. This summer I'll be heading to Beijing to work at a publishing

company helping to translate books about TCM into English as well as studying

and observing in the hospitals. Recent posts have inspired me to try and study

in the cancer wards over there.

 

Also I had a post I have been meaning to send for a while so I'll include it

here...

 

Right after graduation I'll be traveling in India for a month. I'm trying to

decide what medicines to take with me. I've had some advice which included: Ge

Gen Qin Lian Tang, Huo Xiang Zheng Qi Tang, Xing Jun San, Huang Lian Jie Du

Tang, Curing Pills, etc. Basically I was thinking of taking one strong heat

clearing formula, one to keep my spleen in working order, and one tonic that fit

my constitution. Any advice from those with travel experience would be

appreciated.

 

While I'm there I plan to spend a little time at the Acupuncture Institute of

Ananda Nagar. It's a free clinic and school in West India that was featured in

Acupuncture Today a couple of years ago. Their website is quite interesting,

www.acuindia.org

I'm doing to do some local fund raising for the clinic here in Hawaii and am

asking local practitioners to take a donation bottle on their front counters for

a month. If anyone in CHA is interested in having a donation bottle at their

clinic I can send you the document I'm using as a label which can be taped to

any jar. After a month, the proceeds can be mailed to me and I'll get them to

the people in India. If you're interested, please contact me at

Thanks to all who post, I've learned a lot since I joined a year ago.

 

Carl
