After the above introduction, you may be motivated to find out more to enhance the well being of yourself and loved ones, you can explore and learn the theory and practice of the ancient wisdom by enrolling the following video courses.
(This is sharing of learning gathered, without mentioning the learner’s name and particulars).
A student completed the Food Therapy video trainingand also completed the Body Constituent questionnaires and raised some questions.
The learner has many years of sleeping problem.
Learner finds that there is a mix of different types of Body Constituents relevant to herself, with different scores.
From the Body Constituent questionnaires, she also realizes there are many more symptoms experienced, and not just sleeping problems.
The following is some discussion.
In your case, focus on the one with highest score e.g. Phlegm-damp Body Constituent 痰湿体质。
The video course also explains if Phlegm is not arrested, and cumulative in different parts of the body, e.g. at heart, it may cause insomnia, if at the brain, it many cause stroke etc..
The questionnaires give details of symptoms e.g. oily face, sticky feeling, joints pain, constipation, cannot sweat easily ….
These symptoms experienced are important Indicators to watch up for, while doing various therapies 调理， until improvement is made.
Since this particular video course is on Food Therapy, then the learner should refer to the tables given indicating what foods to avoid, what foods to consume.
The video course also gives details on Food Plan.
Do the above for a few months to get the new diet plan into routine.
Later learn and apply other therapies.
(A follow up communication ).
You Stagnant Qi Body Constituent （气郁体质） score is rather high xxxx.
The main cause of Stagnant Qi is your management of your emotions.
e.g.
you mentioned you are emotionally dependent on others, .
being soft hearted in doing charity,
lack of decisiveness in making life decision,
etc.
Stagnant Qi, later, can lead to Blood Stasis 血瘀, (as explained in my video), and Blood Stasis have a lot of problems to the body, imagine your blood too thick, full of toxin, cannot flow easily … blood stasis in the brain causes memory loss, in the heart causes heart attack, at the leg causes water retention and legs weakness etc. etc.)
You can better realize 3000 yrs ancient wisdom links Personality with health issues. And we all have imperfect personality, hence with different health challenges.
Note: 200 yrs Western Medicine does not have such theory linking personality with diseases, Western Medicine focuses on identifying more and more new virus and kill them.
Being aware of the above on Personality is important, we cannot change such behaviors overnight.
Hence you start with developing discipline in the Food Therapy you learned so far, and later the Qi Exercise …by practicing such discipline, you enhance your emotional stability.
Yesterday I have a discussion with a mother, who has a child of autism.
Throughout the conversation she holds the Belief that she can only do her best, there is no way the child can be normal and healthy again.
Similarly I observe there are many people with sickness like diabetes, Parkinson, high blood pressure, Alzheimer’s Disease, cancers, depression, . ,hold the Belief that their sickness can never be cured completely, and they must take life long medication to control the sickness and suffer the side effects.
Where does such strong Belief come from? It is like a strong religious Belief.
Such Belief comes from Western Science, Western Medicine Theory, Western Nutrition Theory,
Our mind is brainwashed since young throughout our education, formal & informal.
It is like a religious Belief, except this religion does not show you the way to heaven, only halfway to heaven.
What if there is another theory that shows you the way to heaven, i.e. to full recovery from sickness, to be free from autism, to be fully healthy?
Ancient Wisdom offers such theory.
Ancient Wisdom, Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic, shows you the Way, the Dao.
“Is there guarantee my sickness or autism can be completely cured?”
Well, who can guarantee you that you can go to heaven if you follow the religion?
Surely it depends on your faith and your sincere & diligent practice daily.
Ancient wisdom just shows you there is a way, whereas Western Medicine say no way.
Which theory you want to choose to practice now?
You are most welcome to learn about ancient wisdom in the following video courses.
Lately there were a few cases referred by two Western Medicine doctors to me, involving teenage / adult children.
Common factors among these cases are enormous & uncontrolled anger, violence against the parents & family members, some with threats to inflict physical injury to parents.
Recent triggering events can be jilted by girlfriend, failed the college exam, taking drugs, not getting the high pocket money demanded, …
The parents feel so sad and guilty about their poor parenting.
In those cases the parents came to see me and shared with me the background stories, I did the psychological & physiological analysis on their adult child and assured the parents they had done the best they could on parenting and need not get locked in their guilt feeling.
I share the following examples.
The child since young had problems to stay focused. Any interest or hobby, activity is very short live.
Hence he could not succeed anything : whether school work, sports, games or hobbies.
This can create a built up frustration and anger in him over years. The above is analysis from psychological and personality angles.
As per 3000 years ancient wisdom, Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic, there is matching physiological image to the above psychology & personality.
Spleen consciousness is in Thinking & Focusing. 脾主思。 Kidneys consciousness is in Will Power. 肾藏志。
Hence since young, the child had deficiencies in Spleen & Kidneys Functionalities.
In one of the cases, the child also has achievement orientation, and got the recognition from his friends on some of his expressed capability. The friends influenced him on gambling, taking drugs, with many exciting night activities without sleep.
Ancient wisdom says, Liver stores Ethereal Soul, 肝藏魂。
Ethereal Soul has attributes like creativity and strategies. Now he can express such attributes in gambling, drugs and illegal activities.
Ancient wisdom says, Liver stores Anger, 肝主怒。
His past years of frustration & anger due to him not able to focus and not able to achieve much, coupled with not enough sleep at nights, his Liver functionalities are severely out of balance.
His anger & violence can be easily triggered by anything not going his way, e.g. jilted by girl friend, lost money in gambling, not able to get from parents his high demand on pocket money….
Why inadequate sleep can affect liver function, and affect behaviors? Please refer to video training on Meridians.
Ideally if the parents know the psychology & personalities and the matching corresponding organs functionalities, there are many therapies (Including Food Therapy) the parents can do when the child is still young.
This article illustrates the importance of the knowledge in the ancient wisdom, Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic, a holistic model integrating Psychology, Personality and Physiology.
This discussion involves a few key concepts which are explained in details in the video training.” ” Liver stores Ethereal Soul, 肝藏魂 ” “Organs Functionalities 五脏六腑”， ，”Food Therapy” 食疗， 饮食学说。 Meridians, Qi exercise 经络，气的运动。 Spleen consciousness is in Thinking & Focusing. 脾主思。 Kidneys consciousness is in Will Power. 肾藏志。
(This is a discussion with a forum group, i.e. Parents with children of Autism).
Dear Parent,
I wish to share with you some explanation on your child eats stool problem.
I explain from the theory of the 3000 years ancient wisdom, which can explain many phenomena that Western Medicine cannot explain.
I have been sharing my research for a profound solution to autism as per theory of the Ancient Wisdom, but few people want to listen, as most people belief system is locked in the Western Education we received.
Western education and theory about our body system, our health are inadequate and incomplete as compared with Ancient Wisdom.
Even though many people could not come out from their embedded belief system, and disregard the message from the ancient wisdom, I will continue to share.
I take patience to explain to you, even though later you still disbelieve.
Why the child eats stool?
First we go back to basic.
When we want to eat something, a few pre-conditions exist.
1. Body needs for foods & drink 2. Smell, Taste, Flavor form the attributes of foods & drink.
Some examples
Someone always goes for spicy foods excessively, hot, chilly, pungent, till such habit damages his health.
As per the theory of Ancient Wisdom, different organs have different needs for different taste, flavour, smell of foods.
In this case, it is the Lungs that prefer pungent, spicy foods.
But there must be a balance, a person who never takes pungent foods, his lungs do not develop well.
Fortunately and unknowingly we do take pungent foods like onions, garlic. Hence our lungs get nourished.
Another person who takes excessive pungent foods, his lungs get damaged, leading to all sort of lungs related diseases.
Each of the key critical organs, Heart, Lungs, Kidneys, Liver, Heart, has its preference for certain flavour & smell.
A healthy person will have a good combination of all flavours. Either he has the knowledge of the ancient wisdom on combination of foods-flavour, or the healthy body will subconsciously direct the person to avoid certain foods.
Back to the early example, the person who eats pungent foods excessively, will not enjoy pungent foods when his lungs problems are solved.
In the case of Eating Stool, different stool has different mixed flavour & smell, in all cases, it shows some or almost all the major organs functionalities are out of balance.
A child eats stool is not educational issue, but physiological problem.
When the child organs functionalities are balanced, naturally, he will not eat stool anymore.
Do you know that some child likes eating soil from flower pot?
Now you realize how much the organs functionalities are out of balance for drug addicts!
In this limited space, I can only explain briefly the concept as above.
If you are deeply curious, wanting to find solution for you child, you can invest in a few hours of time to go through the following video training, on the theory, practice and healing application.
If you prefer to remain in your current belief system, not taking yourself out of the thinking box to accept the Ancient Wisdom, that is alright, I will go on to introduce to other people.
Cheers and God Bless.
Andrew
This discussion involves a few key concepts which are explained in details in the video training.”5 Flavor for 5 Organs, 五味对应五脏 “， “Organs Functionalities 五脏六腑”， ，”Food Therapy” 食疗， 饮食学说。 Meridians, Qi exercise 经络，气的运动。
This is a video on “The Brain is shrinking”. It seems like a big and new scientific discovery.
But more than 3000 years ago, ancient wisdom already knew, “Brain is Shrinking”.
The video continues to related other symptoms and diseases with brain shrinkages., e.g. dementia, depression, Parkinson, Stroke, celebral palsy, Huntington’s diseases, diabetes, etc.
And Vitamin B12, artificially made chemical substance is recommended for prevention. (Have you read reports how damaging are man-made artificial vitamins?)
Lack of exercise, improper diets, inadequate sleep are mentioned as contributing factors to brain shrinkage. As discussed in several other articles and video in this Blog, western scientists can only point out the above as general condition, they do not have integrated theory to explain exactly how lack of exercise, improper diets, inadequate sleep cause brain shrinkage.
Such is the incompleteness and inconsistency of today modern science.
What knowledge was held in the 3000 years ancient wisdom that the brain is shrinking, especially over aging?
Different terminology was used. Instead of Brain is shrinking, it is called Yin Deficiency.
Since Yin is deficiency, it causes imbalance to the Yin and Yang. And Yang now becomes excessives, which contribute to many of the symptoms and diseases mentioned above.
Now you, see, Yin Yang Theory is the overarching integrating theory, that can put all things under one roof.
For example, good sleep is Stillness, Yin is at rest. Insonia is the opposite, Yin is not at rest, and Yang is agitating. Can you figure out how these affect the brain? Agitated Yang implies thoughts, nervous system not in harmony.
Thousands of years, ancient wisdom offers us how to supplement the Yin, how to calm the Yang, through food therapy, qi exercises and many self-healing techniques.
All these to ensure gradual diminishing of Yin and more balanced Yin and Yang during aging. The brain will still shrink, but more gradually and gracefully.
This discussion involves a few key concepts which are explained in details in the video training.”Yin Yang Theory, 阴阳学说“， “Organs Functionalities 五脏六腑”， “5-elements theory 五行学说 ” ，”Food Therapy” 食疗， 饮食学说。 Meridians, Qi exercise 经络，气的运动。
I had a coaching case of an old lady, whose adult son’s patience has been stretched by her to a limit. The old lady for the last year or so, became very temperamental, scolding the in-laws and the maid and accusing the son for stealing her money, and wanted her to die soon.
The old mother has pain here and there, discomfort every day which she complains non-stop. The son and family try their very best to accommodate her, bring her to clinic and hospitals.
But nothing improves. And the son wonders it is because of her psychological issues and calls me for help.
I also come across some adult children, with such difficult case, lost their patience and hit the old parents, which they regret greatly later.
After my coaching session with the old mother, I explained to the family it is not psychological issues but her body organs system deteriorate badly, with lots of imbalances, and these affect the mood and behaviors.
This is similar to autistic child’s behavioral problems arising from physiological imbalances or called Yin-Yang imbalance.
This is the key principle of YEIC : psychology and physiology affecting each other.
Both the old motner and the adult children do not know YEIC Life Cultivation 养生 principles, meaning if the old lady knows YEIC, and if she practices Life Cultivation before her old age, her body internal system, though may deteriorate, but in a more balanced manner. (In my previous articles, I mentioned how emotions affect organs, like Anger affects Liver, Fear affects Kidneys）, ..
And the children do not know YEIC and they hope doctors can help the mother, but doctors can’t. Because Western Medicine nevers considers psychology and emotion as part of the body organs systems.
Some people, without Life Cultivation, when come to old age, they may not manifest in behavioral problems, but illnesses like diabetes, Parkinson, cancers etc.
I suggest to the adult children and in-law to learn YEIC so as to apply Life Cultivation for their mother. One cannot depend on medicine and doctors (Western Medicine or TCM) forever. But, like most people, the children expect me to give a magical pill or solution, without them having to learn new things with application.
This is a common mindset of people. “Too busy with life, if sick, see doctors”. This is very different from YEIC, which stress the importance on Life Cultivation to prevent sickness.
It is difficult for me to convince them, nor do I want to convince them, but only explain to them. Obviously the adult children do not think what may happen to them when they grow old. Most people assume, today my health is quite Ok, I should be ok in the future. Is that so?
I see the adult children and in-law still busy sending the old grumbling mother from clinic to TCM doctors to hospitals.
It is pitiful people get caught in vicious circle without any breakthrough.
This discussion involves a few key concepts which are elaborated in the video training courses , …
“5 Consciousness and 5 Organs 五神对应五脏” “Emotions and Organs 情志”，”Life Cultivation 养生”，”Functionalities of Organs 脏腑功能”，
“Words in Chinese are texts from the book YEIC, 3000 years ago.”
In this video course, we first discuss about Western Education on Exercise for Health. With critical examination, we find that the concepts and ideas conveyed (that almost affect the whole world population) are limiting, some misleading and in most cases cannot improve health, some in the long run damage health at old age, and some can be fatal.
This is especially so revealing when we study understanding about Exercise for Health as presented by the Ancient Wisdom
We discuss the underlying Theory of the Ancient Wisdom, in what way, Qi Exercise improve health and in what specific way for people with different health issues.
With knowledge on many other self-help healing methods, we acquire power in our own hands to improve our health, or even to practice as part of Life Cultivation for autistic child or diseases like Parkinson, cancers etc.
As per another video course on “Food Therapy” we realize that it is the same Governing Theory of the ancient wisdom on Qi Exercise for Health and Food Theory. Meridian system is part of the Central Theory.
This is what is lacking in Western Medicine and Western Nutrition Theory, there is no coherent integrated Theory.
For those who enrolled to these video training courses on Ancient Wisdom for Today Well Being, do you see that, practically the whole world is misguided about the notion of Exercise for Health and Diets for Health?
Yet, we know Exercise and Diets are important. But we need good and clear direction for our daily practices.
