Acupuncture for the Soul: Guardian and Support-Act Archetypes

Course overview

These archetypes are not the only system to think about when you are trying to understand people. The Five Spirits (Wu Shen) are also an important consideration, because they help further dissect complex individuals. And whilst there is an argument that your archetype doesn't change in your life (Nature versus Nurture not withstanding), the Five Spirits can change daily, hourly, or even as you are sitting there reading this course description. The value of understanding, and implementing, the Five Element Archetypes and Five Spirits, into your clinic cannot be understated. They give you a greater insight into your patient's personality - how they operate in their worlds; how they tick! This also aids you in the treatment of your patient's emotional turmoil, stress and mental health.
