In this space the Yin of Compassion merges with the Yang of the Dragon to create a healing energy of wholeness. The specific practices I have studied and seek to master are Traditional Chinese Medicine and Reiki. Traditional Chinese Medicine is a wide ranging medical practice that includes Acupuncture, Acupressure, Tuina Massage, Herbology, Moxibustion, Cupping, Diet/Nutrition, and such esoteric practices as Feng Shui and I Ching Divination.

Traditional Chinese Medicine derives from the work of ancient Taoists who sought physical invulnerability to disease and immortality. While it is apparent that they never actually found the secret to the Fountain of Youth, their work survives to this day in the form of Qi Gong, martial arts practices, meditation practices, herbal remedies. Acupuncture, and other medical practices that promote good health and longevity. One of the keys to Taoist practice was the idea that humans exist on different levels; physical and metaphysical. While herbs, proper diet, and medicated diet were important components, no less important were spiritual practices, the mastery of one's self, and one's environment to one's overall good health and longevity.

Traditional Chinese Medicine or specific aspects of it is the basis for virtually all oriental medical and spiritual practices with the exception of India which has its own medical and spiritual tradition. Acupuncture for example is practiced in most Asian countries from Japan to Tibet in various forms. Even Reiki, according to recent commentaries is based on Tuina Massage practice, and TCM channel theory.

This site is wide ranging and interactive. Its theme is healing. Everything in here is about healing and wholeness. Healing at all levels, from the individual physical body, to the planet as a whole. According to ancient wisdom everything is interconnected and affects everything else. Healing, from the dawn of time has been a secret and sacred undertaking. Every culture in every part of the Earth, in every era has had its healers and healing traditions.

For the first time in the history of humankind, thanks in large part to television and the internet, many of these secrets are now accessible to each one of us, and with them we can pursue the process of self healing and self-mastery. Not since Prometheus gave humankind fire, has there been such an opportunity to transform ourselves and the world. One of the secrets of healing that has been jealousy guarded over the millennia is that it is not the Healer who heals you it is your own innate ability to return to a state of wholeness and perfection, in both a physical and metaphysical sense.

The Healer's job is no more than to help you open a space for the healing to flood in. This he does in a number of ways from treating the physical body to encouraging spiritual practices. It is all connected. There is more than just information on this site. There is healing. Real healing, right here, right now. All you need to do is be open to it and it will occur. It is my intention and belief that the moment you came onto this site, the healing began and by the time you leave, you will be well into it. Now it is up to you whether you accept the healing into your life or try to block it. Check the Healing Crisis page before you leave.

Peace,
