This month, I'm studying in Tzu Chi Buddhist Hospital in Hualien, Taiwan.
To practice Chinese medicine in Taiwan, you must first become a medical doctor (MD)
So you can become a gynecologist, an internal medical doc, a chiropractor, and yes, we have all these, and so much more!
In medical school, you can choose a major. These guys have chosen Chinese Medicine as a major, and practice that.

So I'm working with medical/Chinese doctors. Wow!

The training is going both ways.
I've been put in charge of training the new medical students that come here to learn TCM, and also the doctors are wanting me to give lectures in certain topics.
And then of course, I learn from the doctors as they treat their patients.
Sometimes, patients ask me to treat them, and that is always fun, too!

The last three videos is me training the doctors on Five Element acupuncture. Things that my mentor taught me in Colorado.
Enjoy!

p.s. My Chinese is getting better...

Giving lectures
Like my lab coat??

Dr. Ko
Is the chief, and I love interning with him! He knows his herbs backwards and forwards, and does acupuncture and chiropractic, too...

Sishencong
I did a little acupuncture on Dr. Lin while he was doing rounds. Sishencong is a great (4) acu points.

Teaching acu points
You can't see it, but I'm pointing to some acupuncture points on my arm.

Here is a head.
Pointing to the points. Can anyone guess which meridian I'm lecturing on now?

Which meridian is this?
You can see on the bottom left, they are video taping me. How cool! For future students when I've left, they said.

Learning from Dr. Wu
She is super cool, watch our video! We have similar perspectives on acupuncture, or should I say our Shifus (mentors) have similar perspectives...?

8am morning lecture
Yes, we learn even when we are not treating patients!

Here is a head.
Pointing to the points. Can anyone guess which meridian I'm lecturing on now?

pony-tail
My hair is getting so long, I can put it in a pony-tail, and it forms this cute big curl! Wow!

WOW!

Can anyone guess what this person has?

Lecture on Emotional Techniques
These doctors were so receptive to my lecture on using acupuncture to heal emotions, and started to do some of the techniques on the patients!!

Agressive Energy
Behind me are the AE points... in Chinese. Can anyone read this???
