Ancient Medicine Poetry

Ancient Medicines and their unique ways of diagnosing and treating a patient is filled with inspiration.  In seeing the difference in the reactions both mentally and emotionally that occur when a patient is first diagnosed with a health condition in Western terms, I am grateful for the holistic and philosophical ways Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda describe health conditions.  In Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda we look at the body and its systems as a balancing act.  We see that when one Organ, Meridian (energy pathway), Blood and Tissue level, or Emotion are off center, we look to different philosophies proven in nature and within the body to describe what has taken place. Through that, a practitioner understands the appropriate treatments to restore balance to the whole body, mind and spirit.

After being diagnosed with various conditions in the past and working my way through understanding what they mean to me, I am learning that reflection can be important.  A diagnosis in Chinese Medicine or Ayurvedic terms is a poetry of the many systems in the body as reflected in nature and society.  In Western Medicine, it can inspire various emotions and perceptions of possibilities of what could occur, and what is occurring, as one part of the whole or the whole is being labeled.  It can inspire the memory of someone else who has the condition, or the worst case scenario from an outside source. For some conditions there is a cure and you recover,  a cold, or a flu are good examples.  With others there is a remission. The importance of being positive no matter what the diagnosis cannot be stressed enough.  Like I've mentioned before and hopefully this blog shares, is that there are many options of treatments and ways of looking at a condition.

In Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda we understand the body changes from one visit to the next as the healing processes occur.  We test this through reading the tongue and the pulses.  We observe this through the intake and other signs that the body gives which reminds us that every season is a bit different each year. Therefore the diagnosis can shift as the body re-balances through stages.  This depends on the nutrition, exercise, profession, location and more. Its about finding the balance that brings about renewed health and an empowered being.


~Be well.

It is believed that Chinese medicine is not traditional, but you can see the great result of it.
