奇經八脈：演化型壓力時代的定海神針之針灸篇

針灸篇，僅限醫師與中醫師

徒手篇，無資格限制

這個為期三天的針灸師課程將深入探討，在煎熬時期身心健康是如何受到衝擊。我們也將介紹演化壓力的概念及其相對應的適應能力。我們將會討論奇經八脈(8EV)如何對於協助病患從劫後餘生，重新回到身心平衡的狀態，從而開啟了讓身心狀態更為繁榮昌盛且日益強大的可能性。

我們將介紹利用8條特殊經絡（8EV）的特點來幫助患者適應逆境。當面臨進化壓力時，我們可能會陷入生存模式中，雖然這是必要的，但最終可能會降低我們的生活質量。生存優先使用策略，會阻礙身心繁榮、創造力和充分表達。那麼，在創傷後我們該如何重新生活呢？通過8條經絡恢復精氣週期的功能是一種有效的方法。

將8條經絡的功能與三個層次的氣、三重腦和多迷走理論進行比較，有助於理解如何在充滿挑戰的時期恢復身心健康的平衡。

我們將探討8EV與維持神/精關係的聯繫。作為先天經絡，8EV包含著我們人性的精髓和生命的課程。它們代表著生活有意義和目的的潛力。利用這些經絡進行治療，可以緩解與創傷和進化壓力相關的痛苦。我們將深入探討創傷或其他重大生活事件如何影響我們精氣的展現。調節這些經絡幫助個人從生存模式轉向更具覺知、更有選擇權和主權的生活。

我們將研究與每條8EV相關的心理情感困擾的獨特模式，以及每條經絡如何為健康適應提供潛力。

This 3-day course for acupuncturists will introduce the concepts of how physical and emotional health are affected in extraordinary times. We will discuss the idea of evolutionary stress and the adaptation that it requires.  We will also investigate how effective the Extraordinary Vessels (8EV) might be in assisting patients to move from state of survival back into balance which opens the possibility of thriving or greater states of well-being.

We will introduce the benefits of using the 8 Extraordinary Vessels (8 EV) to help patients adapt in the face of adversity. When we experience evolutionary stress, we may get stuck in survival mode. Although that may be necessary, after a while our quality of life diminishes.  Survival dominance does not allow for thriving, creativity and full expression. How then do we get back on track to living life after trauma?  Restoring the functions of the cycles of jing through the 8 EV is a valid approach.

Comparing the functions of the 8 EV to the 3 levels of qi, the triune brain and polyvagal theory is a helpful way of understanding how to restore the body-mind to a healthier balance after troubling times.

We will discuss the connection that the 8EV have in maintaining the shen/jing relationship.  As pre-natal vessels, the 8EV contain within them the essence of our humanity and our curriculum in life. They represent the possibility or potential for living a life of meaning and purpose. Treatment using these vessels can ease the suffering associated with trauma and evolutionary stress.  We will explore the impact of trauma or other significant life events may have on how our jing unfolds. Regulation of the vessels helps people move out of survival mode into a life with more consciousness, more choice, more sovereignty.

We will explore the unique patterns of mental-emotional distress associated with each of the 8 EV and how each vessel creates the potential for healthy adaptation.

Course Objectives:

• Participants will learn to differentiate when an 8EV treatment is most appropriate.
• Participants will learn how to recognize the way that life challenges impact each of the 8 EV and the physical and emotional symptoms that result from those stressors.
• Participants can expect to learn how to create simple and elegant 8EV treatments that effectively address the impact of trauma and evolutionary stress on the patient’s health. 
• They will also receive training in pulses that confirm 8EV patterns.
