Iām really enjoying this conversation between Pierce Salguero and Michael Stanley-Baker about the history of Chinese medicine, which has some parallels with how to think about the history of Chinese literature, especially how to break free of Eurocentric paradigms.

I had my first session of dry needling this morning. I hope it will help my foot pain, but we'll see. So far though, I can now feel a few square inches around my new left knee that I haven't been able to feel for 2 years. So it shook something in there loose.
National health insurance with preventive and complimentary care is great and everyone should have it!

4J: Stop Gripping Your Mind
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4WaDMpBgUm8&list=PLH4a6WPYmMQ3sdkmQR4JKvurBI89l6LD7&index=38
To begin exploring methods that engage the mind, we first need to learn about how to help it relax. Mental tension always turns into physical tension, and so many qigong practices begin by softening the mind.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQkdZyRrNWs&list=PLH4a6WPYmMQ3sdkmQR4JKvurBI89l6LD7&index=36
Today I answer the questions, "Why should I focus on the back?"
and "How do I know if it's working for me?"
We explore how the back is related to whole-body wellness and the importance of paying attention to your health.

In the last lesson, I discussed a few possible ways to understand Qi, a metaphor to describe emotionality, and even exposed myself as a tea addict. Today, I'll explore a spectrum of qigong methods and the importance of choosing appropriately.

Now that you've spent at least a few weeks practicing qigong, I can explore some abstract ideas without confusing or distracting you. In later lessons, I'll detail techniques and methods. For the moment, sit back and let me share some concepts & definitions.
