奇經八脈：演化型壓力時代的定海神針之"徒手篇"，資格不限_The Eight Extraordinary Vessels: Resources in Times of Evolutionary Stress

奇經八脈：進化壓力時代的定海神針(徒手篇)

Helping Health Care Professionals Support Consciousness and Agency for Healing.

徒手篇，無資格限制 

本課程是專為「非針灸師」的專業人員所設計的，授課對象包括：按摩治療師、運動治療師、物理治療師、心理學家、生活教練、瑜伽教練和護士。課程的重點在於協助這些專業人員，幫助深受創傷影響的人重拾人身心的主導權，並進一步擴展他們的覺醒與正念。

我們將從以下兩個議題出發，它們分別為：身體如何出色地建立了生存能力，以及這些自我保護行為的代價。我們將詳細說明反映身心（身體-心靈）所有功能的三個層次的氣，以及這些功能如何受到逆境的影響而受損。

課程將介紹中醫八奇經的基本概念，以及這些經絡如何構成我們人性的藍圖。課程將探索這些經絡的原型性質，作為如何成為人類的強大地圖。

我們還將研究習慣性生存狀態對意識選擇的障礙。

在三天的課程中，我們將探討進化壓力如何將我們推入生存模式，並討論這種自我保護行為的代價，即慢性疾病和情感困擾。

從歷史上看，這個特殊的經絡系統並未進行醫療治療。八奇經是通過冥想、運動、儀式、藝術和祈禱來培養的。通過增加意識，人們可以掌握自己的生命課程，增加意識，並做出更好的選擇。我們將以多種方式體驗這個經絡系統：呼吸法、引導冥想、身體練習和日記寫作。

his 3-day course is designed for non-acupuncturists who are in varied healing professions. This might include: massage therapists, movement therapists, physical therapists, psychologists, life coaches, yoga instructors and nurses.  It is designed for anyone in a healing profession who wants to help people with trauma regain their agency and expand their awareness/ mindfulness.

We will begin by discussing how brilliantly the body is built for survival and what is the cost of those acts of self-preservation. We will take a detailed look at the 3 levels of qi that reflect all of the function of the body-mind (soma-psyche) and how those functions are compromised by adversity.

The course will introduce the basic concepts of the 8 Extraordinary Vessels of Chinese Medicine and how these vessels form the blueprint for our humanity. The course will explore the archetypal nature of these vessels as powerful map for how to be human.

We will also investigate the impact of habituated survival states as impediments to conscious choice.

Over the course of 3 days, we will explore how evolutionary stress pushes us into survival mode and we will discuss the cost of that act of self-preservation, in term of chronic ill-health and emotional distress.

Historically, this special system of channels was not treated medically.  The 8 EV were cultivated through meditation, movement, ritual, art and prayer.  With increased awareness, people could take control of their life curriculum, increase consciousness and make better choices.  We will experience this channel system in a number of ways: breathwork, guided meditation, physical exercises and journalling. 

Course Objectives:

1.       Participants will leave with an increased self-awareness which is the first step in breaking habituated patterns.

2.       Participants will learn how to recognize holding, armoring and resistance in their patients.

3.       Participants will learn simple techniques that empower patients to let go of resistance and take back sovereignty.

4.       Participants will learn to locate and use the master points of the 8 extraordinary vessels without needles.
