Recenzii

Taoist healing includes a deep understanding of emotions and their influence on health. In this book Dr. David Twicken presents a Taoist and a classical Chinese medical understanding of emotions and how to treat them with Chinese medicine and qi gong. Especially valuable are the insights he shares about the Shen and the five shen. I highly recommend Dr. Twicken's book, The Luo Collaterals. A Handbook for Clinical Practice and Treating Emotions and the Shen and the Six Healing Sounds to anybody interested in learning about ancient natural ways to obtain emotional health and well-being.
TCM is the longest living, most complex, continuous body of medical knowledge known to Man. To grasp and duplicate its complexities, especially in the west, requires an equally analytical and intuitive mind. Dr. David Twicken is the ideal expert to help us unlock TCM's potential because he has such a mind. His clinical and teaching expertise in the field as well as his esoteric studies in ancient Taoist philosophies make him, in my opinion, one of the most valuable masters in TCM today. Studying and applying the information contained in his books has been indispensable to my practice.
Dr. David Twicken's presentation of the luo mai is immediate, present and practical. This book weaves the idea of spirit in Chinese medicine into the collaterals and window of the sky points. The tables consolidate the narrative, highlighting a depth of knowledge not often found in Chinese medical books. Dr. Twicken proves his longstanding, lineage-based roots and this work is a truly refreshing exploration of the topic.
I admire Dr. David Twicken's dedication to scholarship. He strives to understand the concepts found in the classical texts of Oriental Medicine. As a gifted writer, professor, and clinician he is able share these ideas with us all in a modern context. In this book, like his others, he provides clear explanations that are true to their historical context and applications that students, practitioners, and patients can use today to better their lives.
The Luo Collaterals provides a masterful presentation for the clinical application of the connecting vessels. Acupuncture of the Luo Collaterals is also shown as a vehicle for Self (Shen) realization; promoting the conditions for the manifestation of the Tao. The Luo Collaterals does a superlative job in providing a complete resource for healing the body, harmonizing the emotions and realizing out true self; demonstrating the depth, power and profound beauty that is Chinese medicine.
