In this conversation, we talk to Chen Yen about limiting beliefs that many holistic healthcare practitioners, particularly acupuncturists, hold about money. They discuss how these beliefs can hinder practice growth and the importance of understanding the value of services provided.

Robert Gittli created an herbal formula that he gives to his diabetic and pre-diabetic patients who want to lower their A1c.

We did a deep dive into this formula and put it together into a Continuing Education course. It's been approved by the NCCAOM and the California Acupuncture Board for 4 CEUs/PDAs, and it's only $30!

This is the first section of the course where we go over how Robert created the formula, what patterns he uses it for, and what results he gets. This can give you an idea if purchasing this course is right for you.

In this session we follow in the footsteps of Shen Nong and see what we can learn about herbs by tasting them.

Rather than just memorizing the functions and indications from Bensky, Boris and I sit down and taste some Huang Qi and Du Zhong and see if we can taste the tastes and feel the effects.

So follow along with us!

Creating a connection with your patients is an important part of getting people to come back. As a socially awkward engineer and computer programmer, I talk to Zachary Lui to see if dating advice can be applied to establishing patient rapport.

We also talk about building rapport while also maintaining appropriate boundaries and the ethics of a influencing people's behavior.

In possibly the worst podcast episode ever, Patrick and I continue drinking and discuss our unorthodox theories in Chinese medicine.
This includes:
