::Life & Living Systems and Energy Medicine & Energy Fields::

::I know I'm a "Living System" because...::

I survive on the oxygen that is produced by trees.  Those trees are produced by the earth, by water, and by sunlight.  I survive on water just like the trees do, in fact my body is 60% water.  The other mode of survival is eating and gaining energy from other living systems like plants and animals.  I am a living system because those like me (aka other human beings) are living systems.

::Acupuncture as an Effective Energy Medicine::

This is a topic that could be talked about for days, and there would continuously be different ideas and different ways to talk about the energetics of acupuncture.  As I wrote in my self reflection from this week, I remember my first experience with acupuncture, and being amazed that my ailments were cured in 3 or 4 sessions.  I remember saying "it could be a placebo affect, but even if it is... who cares?!" because it works.  In my past year of education however, I've learned more than I even knew existed: from foundational theory like yin + yang, to the meridians, to the energetics of organs, to the mind-body-spirit connection in health --- these are only the introductions to acupuncture as an effective energy medicine.  It works, and it has for thousands of years, however I think it will be a lifetime study to grasp the full ideas behind WHY.

::Human Intent as it Affects Health::

Human intent has a very strong power over the body and one’s health.  If someone’s intent is to think positively, practice taking time to breath or meditate, or perhaps eat consciously, it will have a positive effect on the frequency of their body.  This positive effect on the body’s frequency will lead to a higher probability of health.  There are always going to be external factors that can have an impact, but human intention can go a long way protecting the body from those external factors as well.

:: The Meaning of Time ::

I am going to be completely honest and start off by saying that I felt completely out of it during our first class together.  As interesting and stimulating the topic and conversations around 🕒time🕒, the transition into my new shelter-in-place space & diving back into the zoom-student mindset had my brain a bit foggy and lacking concentration. Since class I've been trying to wrap my head around having days that seem to last 'forever,' yet those days are submerged into a month that goes by in an 'instant.'  Since shelter-in-place, months have been flying by; but when I reflect on all that I've done and the memories I've created - there have been so many!  This year has felt incredibly fast too.  But then I think about all that I've learned in Chinese Medicine school (a lot), the new and incredibly impactful relationships I've made, the deepest feelings of grief I've felt in my lifetime... all in that same "fast" year.  What is it...

::Bionics::

Would you Support the development of a "bionic" person? I am going to have to say... NO, I would not support the development of a "bionic" person.  I understand the mind of an engineer and those interested in robotics, but I wish those minds could be used for something more beneficial to society.  Watching the direction our corporations and factories have gone with technology replacing the jobs needed by human beings is horrifying.  We have so many people on our planet living far below the poverty line, yet corporations are using technology to not have to pay for a minimum wage or health insurance.  My fear, if we create a bionic person, is that we will continue to replace modes of making a living for those in need.  Based on human beings' actions of greed without thinking about the long term repercussions, we'll likely have bionic people roaming around out of control... which is an extremely scary thought.  We have so many more important issues that we ...

::misophonia::

 " Misophonia , meaning 'hatred of sound', is a neurological disorder in which certain sounds trigger emotional or physiological responses others may deem unreasonable. Reactions to trigger sounds range from anger and annoyance to activating a fight-or-flight response." 👂👀 Have you ever come across “misophonia”?  👀👂 Indeed.  How do I go about writing this without sounding like a complete crazy & neurotic person?  There have been a few noises and sounds from people I love dearly (💓) that have drove me absolutely crazy inside.  It almost gets to the point where I'm fixated on the noise.  It drives me nuts in my head but I don't dare say anything about it out loud.  I just sit there and wonder how it doesn't drive them crazy as well.  How are they so oblivious to it?  How are the unfazed by the action creating this repeated annoying noise.  I've noticed these noises are usually repetitive and occur often.  To be honest it...
