Shen Series - Course 3

Course overview

In Chinese medical tradition there are only 5 or 7 emotions: it is the result of recognizing the heart of the primary emotions. Emotions are physiological events, but excessive emotions are harmful and affect qi. If qi does not move properly we can have qi stagnation, blood stasis, accumulation of dampness and phlegm, transformation into Fire and internal Wind, etc. This course will teach you how to recognize the single emotions in patients and in the therapeutic encounter. Clinical examples help to recognize the various clinical patterns and how to treat them using the shen-axis points combination.
