The concept of Shen in Chinese medicine has always been
elusive. Yet Shen is the single factor that is the root of all diseases and
conditions of life. Shen and its dynamics are rarely taught within the
curriculum of TCM - creating a missing link in grasping the essence of
Chinese medicine. It is often inadequately translated as spirit, purpose,
mind, Dao, etc. yet the concept of Shen extends beyond alchemy, religion,
philosophy, mysticism and self-cultivation. This weekend seminar covers an
in-depth discussion on the different aspects of Shen and its manifestations,
including the concepts of Ling, Hun, and Po. In addition, the influences
from other traditions on Chinese Medicine are examined pertaining to the
Shen. Lastly, clinicians learn how to effectively treat Shen disturbances.
