Having an apprentice (starting mid 2nd year TCM in Brisbane) we walk through his learnings.
Master to apprentice chats. This is not professionally filmed. My first language is not tech production. Funds are stretched enough. Please be patient when sound quality and lighting are not perfect – here you have a burning question – and many you may not have thought to ask may be answered.
Here is what he has said of this experience. (One year on).
We were in fading light and the sound was not stunning. His reminders that this is important work – and I always taught my understanding of meridian hierarchy. from the 8 extras. I have outlined the topics below.
What he saw – instant tongue changes.
2.00 – how he was with the 8 extras component.
3.30 – My initial burning question – Jing – how does it do all it does ..
4.00 – How I came to these understandings (Hierarchy of meridians) Reading The Soul of the White Ant
5.00 – Role of the 8 Extras – as reservoirs of STUCK including ‘trauma’)
7.20 – NOT coupling them
8.20 – Why Triage? and the role of ‘perverse Qi’.
10.30 – Jeffrey Yuen – and his version – matched what I was taught in Dr van Buren’s teachings. . .SOUND MAGICALLY CORRECTED AT 11.00!!
12.00 – As always .. . he had a question. Including how can we ensure that we do not recklessly open the person up to what was stored:
and unleash more – as they may not have been ready?
14.00 – why I call this – the Gentling Way . .
PERVERSE QI
WHY WE TREAD GENTLING with the 8 Extras and their MP and CP being usual points to pop in . .
How to be safe? (TRIGGERS)
1.50 – A case in birth and getting placenta to release.
3.00 – Me watching others being reckless with the points. Hence why I can work as I do.
In Gloriavale I had the opportunity to teach their midwives and health workers what to do to help themselves – so I took my graduating class of Living Ligaments practitioners into this – and we did Triage . . Especially in all those past broken tailbones and accident residue – to immense relief for all.
Me talking about a case of being stuck under an electric (bull dosage) whilst pregnant – and how I got up to treating in 3 rooms, 9 students with 15 patients at once . . at 7 minutes – I ask David what he learned in watching me in clinic and at the advanced class he took with me in Gloriavale…
