FOOD THERAPY
Bring the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine into your kitchen, your life, or your clinical practice.
Dietary therapy, or "food cures" (Shi Liao) is an important component of Traditional Chinese Medicine. In this course, you'll learn the principles of this ancient dietary theory and how to use it for yourself!
When you learn to personalize your diet based on constitution and energetics, chronic conditions can be alleviated, energy is restored, and long term health is bolstered through prevention.
All foods have temperatures, flavors, therapeutic actions, and a direct impact on certain organs. When these qualities are understood and used, food can be therapeutic and can create balance and wellbeing.
The energetic theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine Food Therapy can be applied to all food - including modern western diets. When you use the energetics of food you can optimize your health, as well as the health of your family and community.
This program is rooted in the simple concept that food can be used as medicine. When you integrate this knowledge it will nourish you on all levels of your being; physically, emotionally, mentally, and energetically.
FOOD = Healing Medicine
