The Inner Development of the Acupuncturist

Course overview

In this one-hour master-class, veteran practitioner Peter Mole (drawing on sources from the Nei Jing, Sun Simiao and Confucian ethics to Hippocrates and Avicenna) explores the inner work that turns competent technicians into inspiring healers. You will examine the classical idea of the shen ren - "one who, through his power, awakens and develops people's higher nature" - and translate its timeless virtues into everyday, clinic-ready habits. Expect reflective discussion, historical insight and practical exercises you can use tomorrow to strengthen intention (yi), presence and compassionate action.
