Course Reviews
This is a great opportunity to be exposed to this course, and I admire Lorie DecharDec for integrating Taoist ideas into therapy, so that the work of helping others can be expanded to the level of integration of the patient's body, mind, and soul. The healer himself must also be able to remain empty-minded and truly meet the patient.

VERY revealing course
December 1, 2020Thank you so so so much! It has been a VERY revealing course for me, I felt this connection with Chinese medicine for a long time and it made me very good to see it in someone with more experience and wisdom. I will share this knowledge with my students and treasure it in my heart. Thank you very much!!!!
wonderful teaching
November 18, 2020Thank you so much for the wonderful teaching. I held onto every word.
The reminder that “time is urgent, so let’s slow down” especially 🙂 I’ve been practicing that since, and will continue to.
excellent presentation
November 17, 2020Thanks for letting me attend this excellent presentation. I too studied with JR Worseley in the 1970s so it was quite nostalgic.
One striking aspect of the talk is the following: at the start Lorie looked pleasant but unremarkable. By the time the talk ended she looked vibrant and glowing as if lit by a light from within, it was quite remarkable.
I am so glad the talk is available to watch again,
best wishes, Elizabeth
