Better Health requires Paradigm Shift

It is encouraging to see more and more enrollments to the ancient wisdom video courses.

Many express amazement that there is not only interesting but also revolutionary ideas about health, sickness and diseases, which were advocated 3000 years ago.

With such amzement, many sign up to all the video courses concerning ancient wisdom, Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic.

However, I do realize some challenges faced by the learners.

This is because for centuries our minds are conditioned by the western science, western medicine and western nutrition theory to understand our body system in a particular manners, which is incomplete and hence not holistic.

Now the ancient wisdom presents a very different approach which can really address the fundamental issues with prevention and solutions.

But the subconscious mind, being heavily conditioned, cannot easily shift the paradigm after a few hours of the video courses. Hence practitioners will soon revert back to the old thinking pattern and not allowing the new practice to take roots.

For this reason, I encourage the learners to make good use of the video courses, i.e. these video courses are available for re-visit as many times as necessary.

Furthermore I organize a Telegram Discussion Group for members to share, discuss, more Q&A on their daily practices and more queries on the ancient theories.

By such reinforcement, paradigm shift can take roots and participant can enjoy the new practice towards well being.

Interested public are welcome to join the Telegram discussion group by signing up any of the video courses. By doing so, you have some theoritical basic to make meaningful discussion.

Please Telegram me @Andrew360q after you enrolled to any of the courses.

Discover bits & pieces but never Whole

“The brain-gut connection: how TCM has known for centuries what Western medicine is now discovering“

There are more and more such articles published that today scientists discover the functions or malfunctions of the brain is connected with the gut. 

This implies brain related problems like Parkinson, dementia, autism, stokes are connected with the gut problems. 

This connection and relationship are well understood 3000 years ago as per ancient wisdom “Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic”.

However today scientists using Western Medicine theory still operate with their fragmented and compartmentalized thinking, looking for micro solutions and not macro solutions.

For example, such statements “Recent research has found that bacteria in the gut can affect people’s mental state, leading to mood, cognition and behavioural problems.” lead scientists to zoom in research into the bacteria and elimination of the bacteria.

But that will not solve the fundamental problems.

Let me explain.

As per Google search :

Where is the gut found? The mouth is the first part of the gut (gastrointestinal tract). When we eat, food passes down the gullet (oesophagus), into the stomach, and then into the small intestine. The small intestine has three sections – the duodenum, jejunum and ileum.

The gut involves digestive system (mouth, stomach) and absorption system (small intestines).

Just based on the above limited information, ancient wisdom considered more than 2 variables (Stomach & Intestines) that create whatever may be the health problems.

Stomach is closely related to Spleen. Small Intestines are closely related to Heart.

As per 5-Elements Theory, Spleen / Stomach, Small Intestines / Heart are in constant interaction with Kidneys / Bladder, Lungs / Large Intestines, Liver / Gall-Bladder. 

Only with all the organs functionalities are in good balance, you will not have so called bacteria in the guts.

Hence bacteria in the gut is the end result of how well you overall organs functioning. Hence it is not the cause.

What is this ancient wisdom Total Integrated Model that connects all parts of our body and mind?

Watch this short video to get some understanding.

How do I strengthen the overall performance of my body organs system to heal (balance) or to prevent diseases?

Take up these 6 video courses on Ancient Wisdom.

We want Complete Health, Not just treating a symptom or two.

(This is sharing of learning gathered, without mentioning the learner’s name and particulars).

A student completed the Food Therapy video trainingand also completed the Body Constituent questionnaires and raised some questions.

The learner has many years of sleeping problem.

Learner finds that there is a mix of different types of Body Constituents relevant to herself, with different scores.

From the Body Constituent questionnaires, she also realizes there are many more symptoms experienced, and not just sleeping problems.

The following is some discussion.

In your case, focus on the one with highest score e.g. Phlegm-damp Body Constituent 痰湿体质。

The video course also explains if Phlegm is not arrested, and cumulative in different parts of the body, e.g. at heart, it may cause insomnia, if at the brain, it many cause stroke etc..

The questionnaires give details of symptoms e.g. oily face, sticky feeling, joints pain, constipation, cannot sweat easily ….

These symptoms experienced are important Indicators to watch up for, while doing various therapies 调理， until improvement is made.

Since this particular video course is on Food Therapy, then the learner should refer to the tables given indicating what foods to avoid, what foods to consume.

The video course also gives details on Food Plan.

Do the above for a few months to get the new diet plan into routine.

Later learn and apply other therapies.

(A follow up communication ).

You Stagnant Qi Body Constituent （气郁体质） score is rather high xxxx.

The main cause of Stagnant Qi is your management of your emotions.

e.g.

you mentioned you are emotionally dependent on others, .

being soft hearted in doing charity,

lack of decisiveness in making life decision,

etc.

Stagnant Qi, later, can lead to Blood Stasis 血瘀, (as explained in my video), and Blood Stasis have a lot of problems to the body, imagine your blood too thick, full of toxin, cannot flow easily … blood stasis in the brain causes memory loss, in the heart causes heart attack, at the leg causes water retention and legs weakness etc. etc.)

You can better realize 3000 yrs ancient wisdom links Personality with health issues. And we all have imperfect personality, hence with different health challenges.

Note: 200 yrs Western Medicine does not have such theory linking personality with diseases, Western Medicine focuses on identifying more and more new virus and kill them.

Being aware of the above on Personality is important, we cannot change such behaviors overnight.

Hence you start with developing discipline in the Food Therapy you learned so far, and later the Qi Exercise …by practicing such discipline, you enhance your emotional stability.

Please do enjoy your Disciplined Daily Action.

Mummy’s bones healthier than today living person, why ？

When we begin to make deep and serious inquiries into things we take for granted about our health and being, we come closer to the awakening to what is Life.

We will not take what is passed to us, to our belief system, just on face value.

We begin to ask more deep questions.

How come thousands of years of mummy bones stronger than today living persons’ bones?

What is the relationship among osteoporosis, dementia, cancers, Parkinson, autism, …?

Do you know that Western Medicine does not have Theory on Relationship.

Self Healing on Post-stroke Depression, Restores Function

This is an interesting article “Acupuncture Reduces Post-Stroke Depression, Restores Function”

The experiment conducted (using acupuncture) had chosen the following acupoints for Post-Stroke Depression, Restores Function

  • Baihui (GV20)百会穴
  • Sishencong (MHN1) 四神聪
  • Taixi (KD3)太溪穴
  • Neiguan (PC6) 内关穴
  • Hegu (LI4)合谷穴
  • Taichong (LV3)太冲穴
  • Zusanli (ST36)足三里穴
  • Xuehai (SP10)血海穴

The suggested acupoints also reveal the respective meridians and hence zangfu organs functionalities.

This is helpful for the patients to carry out their own focused Life Cultivation practice e.g.

Using Food Therapy to also focus on Pericardium, Large Intestine, Kidneys, Liver, Spleen and Stomach, (as per above suggested Meridians).

And also using Qi-exercises to address the above said meridians including the Strange Flow meridian (MHN1).

Not forgetting using the many self-healing methods, particularly moxibustion, which the patient can do for himself or herself.

Whether the patient has access to good acupuncturist or not,

Whether the patient is already under a good acupuncturist treatment, it is important the patient carry out self-healing and balancing work, 阴阳调理。

Why?

It is because the patient needs to activate his or her Consciousness 五神, his passion and love of his or her own life, the motivation to get better.

Such raised Consciousness surely helps to speed up recovery.

Tantrum / Autism Not Behavioral Problem

We had discussed some people with little or no Will Power, nor Intention to set up a clear and compelling vision as life goal. And we attributed that to the weakness in Kidneys Qi / energy.

We also have the opposite. Excessive determination and Will Power, wanting even to conquer everything in the whole world..

As such they have problem to prioritize and focus well, resulting in achievement in little or nothing.

How do we explain the above from Yellow Emperor”s Inner Classic perspectives?

We start explaining using the 5-element Theory.

Kidneys belong to Water. When the water is strong and excessive, moving in all direction, then the water is not under good control.

As per 5-element theory, Earth can Control Water. For example, when the river water is overflowing, a dam (earth) can be used to control the running water.

Kidneys are represented by Water and Spleen is represented by Earth. And Spleen has the function of Thinking and Analysis. Then much thinking and analysis are required to chart a clearer and manageable life direction to manage.

If the Thinking capability is not well functioning, it also implies the Spleen, physiologically not in good balance.

We can use this Model to observe and understand some behavioral pattern of an autistic child. Hyperactive, throwing tantrum, not able to focus well in study.

The child uses a lot of Kidneys-energy, with persistence / will power in demanding what he or she wants, But he is weak in Spleen / Stomach energy.

Tantrum may appear behavioral problem, but it is not. It is physiological problems that need to be addressed first, i.e. the Spleen and Stomach functionalities.

With more knowledge gained from Yellow Emperor”s Inner Classic , we can then help the autistic child to strengthen the functionalities of Spleen and Stomach with the appropriate diets that suit his or her body constituents.

From the above example, we see that kidneys problems need treatment at Spleen and Stomach also. So unlike Western Medicine who does not see relationship among organs.

We have our own experiences that it is not easy to balance Spleen and Stomach. There are so many delicious foods as temptation. Furthermore too much thinking and worries, Spleen and Stomach get attacked all the time.

This discussion involves a few key concepts which are explained in details in the video training.“Organs Functionalities 五脏六腑”， “5-elements theory 五行学说 ” ，”Earth controls Water 土克水” “Kidneys represented by Water 肾属水”，”Spleen represented by Earth 脾属土” ，”Kidneys like Hercules 肾为大力士”， “Liver manifests in anger 肝主怒?“，”Liver likes radiating with 肝主疏泄”

Life Purpose supported by Physiology

In my hundreds of coaching cases, many are seeking meaningful and purposeful life engagement. Different people express and manifest differently. Some do not seem to be interested in meaningful engagement with life.

A lady feels angry and lost due to her husband having an affair. During the coaching process, she describes her marriage life as “nothing joyful or exciting, nor depressing” until the recent issue.

Both husband and wife has his or her own duty to perform, making an earning, taking care of children. There is no common platform of interest and sharing, nor compelling vision forwards.

I asked : “What do you think is happy marriage?”

She answered : “There should be no extramarital affair.”

There was another case, lovers for years. One day the male partner decided to end the relationship.

I asked about their years of courtship. What they did together. She answered : “Eat, drink, shopping, watching movies”.

One employee, due to difficult economic situation, lost his job. I asked : “During your work, what made you feel excited, proud, or any achievement felt?”

Answer : “No lah. Just follow the boss’s instruction to do the work.”

It seems making a living is more for survival sake, no other purpose and meaning. As long as life is smooth sailing, everything is OK. Until some negative happening.

Having a purpose Life Direction and hence the Intention, is the function of Spleen.

And having Will Power to purse what one’s belief or dream is the function of the Kidneys.

Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic, the ancient wisdom, says : “Kidneys store Will Power” “Spleen stores Intention”

Intention and Will Power are two of the 5 Consciousness.

And Consciousness is related to the body physiology. A person who is often sick, with weak body, always feels tired walking a few steps, surely his or her Consciousness levels are low.

How do you make observations of your autistic child’s Intention and Will Power? What about Parkinson’s sufferers?

More detailed discussion on relationship between psychology and physiology is as per video training course “Organs Functionalities (What Western Medicine does not know)

This discussion involves a few key concepts which are explained in details in the video training.“Organs Functionalities 五脏六腑”， “Consciousness 五神 ” ， “Kidneys store Will Power 肾藏志”，”Spleen stores Intention 脾藏意“
