Podcast Takeover Time! - I let two YouTube subscribers take over my channel and interview me about my journey in learning classical Chinese medicine and how it's different to TCM. Waleed & Yassin have been on a journey to discover what Classical Chinese medicine is and they are directly interested in studying the same system that I learned - ICEAM Ok, so Waleed & Yassin have their own YouTube channel : https://www.youtube.com/@UCzliuDMatV8zfMhl5_BctBg There are the full-length interviews with my teacher, Laurie Ayres and I would highly encourage you to check out their channel and give it a subscribe. It's hard when you first get started, and they literally launched their channel this week. Leave a comment letting them know Chinese medicine podcast sent you there :) Finally this is not a paid promotion by ICEAM or Waleed & Yassin's channel. I am doing this because i truly believe everything I've said in this interview and I hope that other TCM'ers and Chinese medicine enthusiasts may discover the wonderful world of Classical Chinese medicine as I have, so I am happy to promote this system /course and the endeavors of Waleed and Yassin through their investigation of (as they say) "old school Medicine" . :) ICEAM course info: 1) UK The course we are discussing is starting a new intake in the UK and in Australia. UK course details: Course info, details, price, signup: https://www.iceam.org/venue/iceam-utrecht/ Contact for the course: Laurie Ayres: lauriehayres@gmail.com or Lettie ldewit@utrecht.iceam.org The UK course will start on May 27th &2 8th They also have a few intro lectures before that, signup is via Lettie: 23rd Mar – An Introduction to the Classical Treatment of Menopausal Issues 5th Apr – Essential Aspects of Systematic Clinical Practice – And An Introduction to the Tian Lineage 19 Apr – An Introduction to the Treatment of Shao Yang & the San Jiao – Huang Qin & Chai Hu Herb Methods & Their Associated Formulas ____ 2) Australia : Australia Course details: there is a new course starting up in Australia, via Brisbane.

Do you ever wonder how someone gets into the field of acupuncture and Chinese medicine? 🤔 Well, a subscriber asked, and my patients often ask me that very question and my story might just surprise you! I actually had never even had acupuncture before I started studying it. Looking back it was kind of serendipitous. Sometimes I think that "Chinese Medicine chose me". I'm so grateful I found this amazing medicine at 17 years old, and now I can't imagine doing anything else.
