Introduction
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is deeply intertwined with ancient Chinese philosophy, drawing upon fundamental concepts such as Yin-Yang, the Five Elements (Wu Xing), and the Four Pillars of Destiny (Ba Zi). Historically, traditional Chinese doctors (Lang Zhong) were well-versed in Ba Zi, as it was considered essential in diagnosing and treating patients.
Beyond TCM, traditional Chinese practices such as Feng Shui, destiny analysis, and Daoist philosophy have long influenced human health and well-being. These interconnected disciplines share a common foundation in Yin-Yang and Five Elements Theory, providing a holistic approach to health preservation, disease prevention, and life cultivation.
This seminar will explore what is TCM and how integrating Ba Zi, Feng Shui, and TCM diagnostics can enhance modern healthcare practices.
