ASK THE EXPERT---Mina Larson (CEO, NCCAOM - Part 2)
In Episode #11, we complete part two of our interview with Mina Larson, CEO of the National Certification Commission on Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) in Washington, DC. (www.nccaom.org) According to their website, the “NCCAOM is the only national organization that validates entry-level competency in the practice of Acupuncture and Oriental medicine (AOM) through professional certification.” In our interview with Mina, we asked questions about licensing, their national board exams, and questions that came directly from Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine students who participated in our survey. We are grateful to both Mina and the NCCAOM for allowing this special opportunity to look closely at what the organization is doing behind the scenes to support our growing profession. Thank you for listening!

Ep66 – What Kind of Practitioner Will You Be: Part-Time or Full-Time?
Every #healthcare practitioner will have to decide at some point if they want to run a part-time clinic or a full-time clinic. It is a decision that is not easy to make but one that will cross every practitioner’s mind at some point. In this podcast, I briefly share with you my personal experience in making this decision over the last 7 years as well as some tips to keep you on track with making the best decision for yourself. No matter the choice you make, just make sure it is the BEST choice for YOU!

Ep65 – Why I Never Make New Year Resolutions (& You Shouldn’t Either)
Why do people wait until January 1st to decide on making a significant change in their lives? Most likely there are issues with commitment at a deeper level that ultimately lead us to the failure that is experienced by the majority of people within the first two months of the year. Don’t be like everyone else. Discover in this podcast what is at the root of true change in life and commit with a different approach that will guarantee success that is more gratifying and more sustainable than ever before.

Ep64 - Did You Miss Your Calling in Life?
Did you miss your calling? Do you feel you should be living a different life, or even worse, COULD BE living a different life that your “stupid self” chose not to or didn’t take advantage of in the past? All of us are presented with opportunities in life that may allow for us to live the life we dream of, but we may not have our eyes open wide enough to recognize the opportunities before us. Regardless of you might have missed, that calling is gone, and in this podcast, I share with you WHY it is not important whether you “missed your calling” or not. For the title of this podcast is a serious question we should all ask ourselves. So, listen closely if you know what I mean!

Ep63 - What Do You Treat First: EXCESS or DEFICIENCY?
Acupuncturists tend to focus on treating deficiency (or weaknesses) in their patients instead of excess. In this podcast, I describe the difference and break down the thinking of why you should focus on one versus the other. It is important for us to understand why an illness is taking place versus what exactly the patient presents with. Another idea that relates to this is treating the root cause rather than trying to “fix” the patient by tending to their current signs and symptoms. Try this new approach and let me know your results! I bet you’ll be surprised!

ASK THE EXPERT---Mina Larson (CEO, NCCAOM – Part 1)
In this audio version of the recent ASK THE EXPERT show, we interviewed Mina Larson, CEO of the National Certification Commission on Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) in Washington, DC. (www.nccaom.org) According to their website, the “NCCAOM is the only national organization that validates entry-level competency in the practice of Acupuncture and Oriental medicine (AOM) through professional certification.” In our interview with Mina, we asked her questions about the role of NCCAOM, their reason for moving back to DC from Jacksonville, FL and what they plan to achieve, as well as what the organization does for licensed acupuncturists. We are grateful to both Mina and the NCCAOM for allowing this special opportunity to look closely at what the organization is doing behind the scenes to support our growing profession. Stay tuned for part two of this interview in the months ahead!

ASK THE EXPERT---Ronni Abergel (Founder & CEO, The Human Library)
In this episode, we interviewed Ronni Abergel, the Founder and CEO of “The Human Library Organization” (https://humanlibrary.org/). Ronni started The Human Library 19 years ago with the goal of using conversation and dialogue to challenge our judgment and prejudice towards others. He has worked with companies across the world like #Microsoft, #Heineken, the International Monetary Fund (#IMF), and The World Bank (#worldbank) to name a few. The Human Library (#thehumanlibrary) allows the opportunity for everyday people to open their minds and hearts as "readers" of their fellow colleagues and neighbors with the intention of creating opportunity for, and understanding of, all by sparking the elimination of societal stigma and personal biases. We are extremely grateful for the opportunity to interview Ronni Abergel in person. His friendly and playful approach to life is a true example of what it means to truly LIVE. A heartfelt thanks to Ronni and his amazing team for the tremendous opportunity not only for the interview but to become a book on the shelves of The Human Library. We are eager to hear more about what is next for The Human Library and participate in their upcoming events. My hope is that each of you will take the opportunity to become a reader or even a book at a local Human Library event near you. Find an upcoming Human Library event near you here: https://humanlibrary.org/events/

Ep62 – Are You Connected?
In a world that claims to be so connected, why do we feel so little connection with each other? Whatever happened to kindness, to caring for others, to respecting other people and treating them the way they deserve? This life has one certainty; that it will end. We are living here together, and my suggestion is to let go of any suffering you have experienced and start giving away the gifts you have to help change another person’s life, and possibly yours in the process. How will you live today different than yesterday? How will you learn to reconnect with the people and the world around you? Connect with your loved ones, connects with those you despise in a new way. Connection is the only thing we have that holds us all together. Learn to reconnect by listening to this podcast first.

Ep61 – Surviving the Ups and Downs of Life
We all experience times in our lives where we feel absolutely amazing and other days where we feel completely miserable. Traversing the course of emotional incertitudes is sometimes a challenge filled with both darkness and light simultaneously, which easily confuses anyone who travels along this path. This podcast is meant to provide you with a sense of hope and expand your limited faith in believing that these challenging times will eventually come to an end. If you are experiencing a tough time in your life right now, please listen from start to finish and think again about YOUR WHY in this life. Think about what you brought you here and what you can do next to move you out of this seemingly neverending moment of darkness. There is always a way out, and we are here to guide you.

Ep60 - Defining "Healing Presence" (A Chat with Acupuncture Students)
In this episode, I share with you a recent conversation with the Acupuncturists of the future currently studying at the Virginia University of Integrative Medicine (VUIM). Our course is focused on understanding and practicing the power of communication as a practitioner and how we can become better healers as we continue to grow and learn this powerful medicine. This insightful conversation brings out the experiences and personal opinions of these future healers on the importance of developing a healing presence and understanding why they chose to study this medicine over others.

Ep59 - The 5 Treasures of Acupuncture - Part 5 (Shen/Spirit)
In this final part of our series, The 5 Treasures of Acupuncture, we go into detail talking about the substance of Shen, or one’s spirit. Not only is this a treasure of Acupuncture, it is also a treasure that exists within every human being. Understanding the highest form of the human experience and how this affects the state of our health will bring you closer to the answers of your questions about life you have been searching for. Our health goes beyond just the superficial layers of the human body and expands outward much farther into the realms of what we have yet to understand that exist as part of the universe. Enjoy the final part of our series, which I hope was able to get you a few steps closer to what us Acupuncturists actually do.

Ep58 - The 5 Treasures of Acupuncture - Part 4 (Jing/Essence)
In part 4 of this series, we focus on a more mysterious substance that exists in Oriental Medicine; Jing or Essence. If you ever wanted to know where you get certain traits from within your family or how you have transformed into the human being you are today, this is the podcast that will bring you closer to those answers. The transformations every person goes through in life occur in somewhat predictable periods of time and have been a major focus of Oriental Medicine for thousands of years. Even more so, it has been an area of focus people have become interested in experimenting with to discover ways that could potentially lengthen one’s life. Jing is a substance that is essential for human life and development, and therefore it is easily considered as one of the treasures of acupuncture.

Issues with circulation, blood pressure, and mental functioning all connect to this unique substance.

Want to change your mood from feeling tired and lethargic to feeling energized and like a rock star??
