Learn the theory.  Especially 5-element theory since everything is based on that. Without an understanding of the relations between the elements you can not further your understanding of internal alchemy in relation to medicine.  \nI'm not qualified as such to really say much more but feel free to contact me for informal info and links.  Take care x

i think your best bet is to find a newcomer so that you can teach him english and u can teach him chinese. that way you can both benefit.

Go to "View" then "Encoding" and search for "Chinese Simplified" or "Chinese Traditional." You should be able to read it then.

Yes, very popular. There are many schools for acupuncture, Chinese herbs, and other forms of Oriental medicine in the US. Yoga, tai chi, chi gong, acupuncture, herbs, and so on are HUGE here. I don't know anyone who isn't at least remotely involved in some form of Oriental medicine (although we don't call it that--we would say "Chinese medicine" or Korean such and such).

The easiest way that could be done is by finding yourself a friend that speaks mandarin chinese or a girl/guyfriend who does the same and try to learn chinese that way. You could also get movies in chinese that have english subtitles. You could also try and find some resources online!\nHow fast you learn a language depends on your interest and langugae learning skills!\nGood luck!

hi there, mehereintheeast.  I'm not sure exactly where you can take Chinese classes.  I took some Chinese a few years ago and the way I found a teacher was by going to the campus of a university and asking people who looked Chinese. (Amazingly, every person who I thought was Chinese was actually from China.)\n\nYou answered my question about Guru Rinpoche, and I have a few more questions about it.  Your answer implied that Buddhas are not monks.  Most forms of Buddhism consider Shakyamuni Buddha to have been a monk, and in the Pali texts, he refers to himself that way, as do his disciples.  Is there a different view in the Nyingma school?  In the present case, I am not calling only lamas monks, but all five levels of ordained practitioners as defined by Tibetan Buddhism. Also, is there any record of Padmasambhava having been ordained?  He trained at monasteries in India, but I don't think he was actually ordained.  And finally, have you had any contact with Tibetans, Nyingmapa or otherwise, who feel that his choice to have various female consorts prevents him from maintaining the status of being a monk?  I understand that some people there feel that way.\n\nThanks.

Maybe trythe Center for Aromatherapy Research and Education. They and Dr. Gary Young have been starting to work fairly hard in Africa. If they don't give you some sort of registration, they cna point you to the right people.

Here are some pointers from the National Center for Complementatry and Alternative Medcine:\n\n"How do I find a licensed acupuncture practitioner?\nHealth care practitioners can be a resource for referral to acupuncturists. More medical doctors, including neurologists, anesthesiologists, and specialists in physical medicine, are becoming trained in acupuncture, TCM, and other CAM therapies. In addition, national acupuncture organizations (which can be found through libraries or Web search engines) may provide referrals to acupuncturists.\n\nCheck a practitioner's credentials.\nAn acupuncture practitioner who is licensed and credentialed may provide better care than one who is not. About 40 states have established training standards for acupuncture certification, but states have varied requirements for obtaining a license to practice acupuncture.17 Although proper credentials do not ensure competency, they do indicate that the practitioner has met certain standards to treat patients through the use of acupuncture. \n\nDo not rely on a diagnosis of disease by an acupuncture practitioner who does not have substantial conventional medical training. \nIf you have received a diagnosis from a doctor, you may wish to ask your doctor whether acupuncture might help."\n\nFind out more info at these sites:

here's all i've found near arlington: \n\nhttp://yp.yahoo.com/py/ypResults.py?Pyt=Typ&city=Arlington&state=TX&uzip=76010&country=us&msa=2800&cs=4&ed=KV8m9K1o2TwYALwKke7SAI9De_Uvx5aMnXJDt1jmMmhf&tab=B2C&stx=8120454&stp=y&desc=Martial+Arts&qtx=martial+arts&offset=3&FBoffset=17&toggle=&stat=ClkNxtUpper&ls=&lp=\n\ni'd suggest giving a few of these places a call, they might be able to point you to a tai chi chuan instructor... you can also check and see if there are any physical therapist that do eastern medicine, they tend to give taiji and qigong classes at their practices.. \n\nsorry i couldn't be more help, i'll ask my sifu if he knows anyone near arlington that would be good to see.. \n\nsorry\n\n~*good luck*~

I assume you mean traditional Chinese medicine and not modern Chinese medicine.  Traditional Chinese medicine has a 2,000 year history of experience with natural remedies, such as the medicinal use of herbs, the healing properties of different kinds of foods like fruits and vegetables, and the effects of different food combinations.  Western medicine is not aware of, and does not recognize most of these remedies.  Also, traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes health in the sense that its focus is on maintaining harmony and balance in the body, whereas Western medicine emphasizes disease in the sense that its main focus is treating someone who is already ill instead of preventing the illness in the first place.
