This course once again delves into the 'stuff' that makes Five Element Acupuncture, a Japanese style of acupuncture, really interesting!  It's my favorite style of all!  The Five Elements are Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water.  The primary ten organs of the body are embodied in this philosophy, as each is a part of the human body known as your own personal Village.  You have a Supreme Commander (the Heart, what else), and High Ministers (the Liver, Spleen, Lungs, Kidneys) and their Assistant Officials (the Gall Bladder, Small Intestine, Stomach, Large Intestine and Urinary Bladder).  They all have their own color, flavor, emotions, seasons, cooking style, sound of voice and job to do.  Please join Patricia leading the class's pathway into this fascinating insight for improving your health and longevity.
