Treating the 'spirit' and the psycho-emotional aspects of ill health through work with the Eight Extraordinary Vessels.
Yvonne Farrell has been educating acupuncturists in California and internationally since 1997 and has spent the last 15 years focussing her teaching on the use of the Eight Extraordinary Vessels. She has been a respected instructor at many schools in California and is a Continuing Education provider on this topic through Healthy Seminars.
This contribution is the single most unequivocal academic reminder
that the medicine is living art. I've never read a text that
testifies so strongly to the metaphor and poetry of what we can
do.
*Russell Brown, LAc., author of Maya Angelou's Meditation 1814*
Dr Farrell's exploration of the 8EVs is nuanced with practical,
personal, and deeply insightful candor. She demystifies the 8EVs
and preserves their profound intent to support the spiritual
journey.
*Luke Adler L.Ac., author of Born to Heal*
A welcome addition to the literature that exists on the subject
(...) what is interesting and unusual about this book is not only
that it goes into great details about every EV, but also that it is
focused on treating EV as a way of bringing the person closer to
his or her original energetic make-up or original nature (...) I
would certainly recommend this book not only to anyone interested
in exploring the Eight Extraordinary Vessels, but anyone pondering
the philosophical question of health and disease.
