Facebook won't let me change the name of this page for some reason. There's no clinic by the name of Lila Holistic out there anymore, but for those interested in acupuncture, herbal medicine or I Ching consultations, check out the work of Jonathan H Edwards, LAc at jonathanhadasedwards.com. Thanks, folks.

Jonathan H Edwards, LAc. speaks about how he found his way to this medicine and why he's passionate about it

The dog got a hold of my trustiest book—taking the lessons of Hexagram 17 a little too much to heart. She’s not wrong, though. Much nourishment to be found in these pages.

As part of my mission to amplify the signal re: the profound usefulness of traditions, I’ll be doing an hour-long intro class to the Yijing / I Ching on Zoom via on 12/5. Details TBD. Also available as always for readings or for tutoring in the mantic arts—on their own and as they apply to the practice of East Asian Medicine.

About our founder/practitioner:

Jonathan Hadas Edwards, MS, LAc. is a healing arts practitioner and teacher trained in Traditional East Asian Medicine and mantic arts. He's been described as a "wizard" but he thinks of himself as a recovering materialist in awe of the wisdom of the ancients. A NC state-licensed acupuncturist, he holds Masters degrees in East Asian medicine from National University of Natural Medicine and in writing from Warren Wilson College. He lives in the Haw River watershed (traditional Shakori lands) at Heartward Sanctuary, a center he co-founded with spouse Julia Hartsell.

Alongside acupuncture, Jonathan has been offering telemedicine herbal consults and remote divination work since before the COVID pandemic. He works with people on a wide range of health concerns; he has helped many with digestive issues, insomnia, anxiety, menstrual problems, fertility, pain, fatigue, acute injuries and rehab, acute and chronic respiratory diseases, Covid and post Covid syndromes, addiction, post-chemo and post-radiation recovery, and more (see testimonials and FAQ). He also works with clients on questions of direction, drawing on the I Ching and other mantic methods to shed light on life's crossroads and decision points. He considers all this to be sacred work and approaches each individual with a spirit of humility, curiosity and respect.

Jonathan writes: "My own healing journey began after watching my father decline due to dementia, a condition for which Western medicine had little to offer. When I started having health problems of my own, I began to look for answers off the beaten path..."

His journey him in 2005 to India, where he was first exposed to traditional Asian medicine traditions. In 2008-9 he spent a year in Nepal on a Fulbright fellowship to study Ayurvedic medicine. After meeting last-of-his-lineage physician Keshab Laal, Jonathan was inspired to devote himself to the study and practice of herbal traditions. His growing passion led him to NUNM in Portland, Oregon, where he studied under Dr. Heiner Fruehauf and traveled to China with him. In the Northwest he also took the opportunity to delve into western herbalism with renowned teachers Matthew Wood and Scott Kloos, continuing to broaden and deepen his growing knowledge.

Somewhere along the way it became evident to him that the world's divination traditions are undervalued tools in the pursuit of healing and insight. Since then Jonathan has made a serious study of the I Ching and its long history of clinical applications. He has also pursued involvement in the West African tradition of Ifá, traveling to Nigeria for initiation in this living wisdom tradition in 2013. He has been encouraged by the results of incorporating I Ching and other mantic methods into his healing work, and has trained with Dr. Daniel Foor and others in ancestral healing and ritual methods in order to address transpersonal aspects of health. His eclectic and rich background equips him to work with people who are open to unconventional methods that are nonetheless rooted in ancient tradition.

As he is quick to remind prospective patients, no belief is required.

THAT, friends, is a cinnamon stick. More accurately, the bark of the Vietnamese species Cinnamomum loureiroi, most potent of all cinnamons in terms of essential oil content (including cinnamaldehyde). East Asian herbalism has long valued this spectacular (and expensive, at over $100/lb) type of Rougui above all others for reinforcing primal yang, dispelling cold, strengthening the vital mingmen fire (💧🔥💧) and warming the channels.

As part of my commitment to providing the highest quality medicinals, this cinnamon / Rougui is indispensable in treating a broad range of diseases due to deficient yang, especially as we head into the cold half of the year. Added bonus: tastes like Red Hot candy.
