“If you can see your path laid out in front of you step by step, you know it’s not your path. Your own path you make with every step you take. That’s why it’s your path.”
Joseph Campbell
Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine and Coaching:
- I have been fascinated by the practice and theory of TCM most of my life. There is some great information on the “Traditional Chinese Medicine” page and it is deeply ingrained into the vast majority of the information provided throughout the blog.
- One of the greatest benefits (to my mind) of TCM and herbal therapy is that by the time most people become symptomatic enough to start looking for help the innate intelligence of their body (body brain) is pulling them in 12 different directions all at the same time in an attempt to put out seemingly countless “problems”.
- By using the theory and evaluation practices of TCM we can figure out which “fires” the body is trying hardest to resolve week to week and adjust therapy to speed up those processes moment to moment. This allows “diet” therapy and “emotional digestion practices” to focus on the big picture instead of constantly be adjusted day to day (which is in personal experience exhausting, confusing, and overwhelming).
- When going through a phase in life where dis-ease becomes pronounced there is an incredibly common tendency to focus “moment to moment” and “just get through the day”. To both the healthcare practitioner and the person going through the struggle it often ends up feeling like “triaging” a never ending cascade of problems or to put it more simply “just keeping your head above water”.
- Speaking from personal experience…what a crappy way to live life!
- We want long term, lasting improvements that are not dependent on never ending therapy. By combining herbs, diet, and emotional digestion practices we can work together to keep you “swimming towards shore” while also staying sane in day to day life when the swimming gets hard.
What you get:
- 75 Minute Face to Face Session 1 on 1
- Each session is custom tailored to the individual as well as to the specific struggles you are facing at the time.
- I will look at your tongue and pulse (TCM version of “bloodwork”) every time and change your herbal formula to fit the needs your body has at that time. The right treatment at the wrong time is still the wrong treatment and best results occur when your changing needs are regularly attended to.
- We will then go over lifestyle changes/diet suggestions/emotional digestion/de-storying practices based on what we both agree will be of most benefit to you at the time.
- A 2 week supply of herbs are included in the cost of the session.
- Additionally you will have access to “restricted” pages/posts on the blog (when available) that cover concepts that were worked on during your session. This is not intended as a means of “hiding the good stuff” but rather as a safety precaution. The deeper or more nuanced a teaching becomes the more potential there is for misunderstanding and potential harm if not taught with clarity.
