Class 1: Tenets of Classical Chinese Medicine
Live webinar: Saturday 10/22/22, 9:00 AM - 12:30 PM
3.5 CEUs category 1/PDAs pending, CAB provider #1005, NCCAOM provider #1134
Distance homestudy: start date 10/23/2022, 3.5 CEUs category 1/PDAs pending, CAB provider #1005, NCCAOM provider #1134

This class introduces the students to classical Chinese medicine and its relationship to a greater understanding of the cosmos and time keeping, and how this relationship determines proper diagnosis and treatment. Classical Chinese herbalism, especially that of the Shang Han Za Bing Lun and Tang Ye Jing, can be understood by grasping the merging of Yang with Yin to create Fire and Water, the essence of the 4 directions, 5 phases and 6 conformations, and the correspondences which tie them to a patient’s symptoms and the directional actions of the herbs. The class will explore these notions in detail, as a preparation for subsequent classes. We will spend time exploring the differences between the natural and pathological order of the 6 conformations, the nature of Qi and Ying (nutritive), and Biao-Ben-Zhong-Qi theory, all at the heart of the Shang Han Lun and Jin Gui Yao Lue.
Class 2: Flavors and the Universe
Live webinar: Saturday 11/19/22, 9:00 AM - 12:30 PM, Sunday 11/20/22, 9:00 AM - 12:30 PM
7 CEUs category 1/PDAs pending, CAB provider #1005, NCCAOM provider #1134
Distance homestudy: start date 11/24/2022, 7 CEUs category 1/PDAs pending, CAB provider #1005, NCCAOM provider #1134

This class presents the 5 flavors as they are exposed in the Nei Jing and the Tang Ye Jing; their cosmological/directional correspondences, and the classification of the Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing. Understanding herbal direction is the key to comprehending the architecture of Shang Han Lun formulae. Students will learn the art of combining flavors to achieve certain therapeutic movements within the patient, and how to match herbs to a patient’s particular constitution or pathological picture. We will study in detail the first 10 of the 25 archetypal herbs of the Tang Ye Jing, giving examples of their various uses in Shang Han Za Bing Lun formulae, thus giving an introduction to the art of composing formulae.
Class 3: Formulae of the Tang Ye Jing
Live webinar: Saturday 12/17/22, 9:00 AM - 12:30 PM, Sunday 12/18/22, 9:00 AM- 12:30 PM
7 CEUs category 1/PDAs pending, CAB provider #1005, NCCAOM provider #1134

Students will be introduced to Tao Hong Jing’s version of the lost Tang Ye Jing. We will study of all of its chapters and formulae, analyzing each formula and discussing its therapeutic indications. Notably, this includes the Two Dawn and Six Spirits formulae, as well as the Minor and Major Organ Supplementing and Draining formulae, the formulae for Consumptive Damage of the 5 Organs, the Formulae to Disperse the 5 Organs, and Life-Saving Formulae to Rescue from Evil Strike and Sudden Death. We will look at the whole corpus of formulae in the Tang Ye Jing as a cyclical whole, and consider the latter as a metaphor for elemental processes and the passing of time through a year, or a life cycle. Each formula relates to a constellation or quadrant in the sky. As such, the Tang Ye Jing’s formulae are a beautiful template of life on this Earth throughout the seasons, and are an important tool of Daoist study. Because they get to the very fabric of life, they are also highly effective medicines when prescribed in harmony with the right diagnosis.
