At the time of writing this post there is an enormous amount of upheaval in our communities and in the world. Feelings of helplessness – of not knowing exactly how to respond to quickly changing circumstances or how to be of support to others – ripple through us. I have come to realize that what I can offer is to continue to put out information on how Chinese Medicine can help us find purpose and meaning in times of distress.  

In episode 6 of this podcast – The Ripple of Hormones – I talk about how Chinese Medicine sees a woman’s hormonal cycle and how this medicine can help make sense of what can often be a very confusing experience for a woman. So whether you are just starting your menstrual cycles, are on your fertility journey or are entering the peri-menopausal phase of your life, I invite you to learn how this medicine’s holistic approach can help you better understand what it is you are experiencing and how to find ease in it.

The practice of Chinese Medicine involves taking a step back into its history. Evolving from keen observations of nature and the needs posed by multiple pandemics, the excellence of this medicine lies in its ability to be steeped in the richness of its history, while responding in real time to the health needs of the present.

In episode 2, “The Language of Healing”, we look at how doctors of Chinese Medicine worked with the challenges posed by the 2020 pandemic.

For the past 30 years I have practiced as a doctor of Chinese Medicine, and for the past year I have worked with writer/producer Alan Katz on a podcast about it. I am thrilled to announce its launch. It goes something like this:

“The practice of medicine is a combination of science and art. While science wants to be precise and consistent - human beings, by our very nature, can be far from precise and consistent, and this is where the art comes in. 

Medicine is also about relationships and it’s not just between doctor and patient, but our relationship with self –  with our body and our health. Chinese Medicine, by the very way it sees us, sees this relationship and invites you on a journey of discovery with it. 

This Journey starts with the doctor’s own journey of discovery with the medicine. Physician Heal Thyself!”
