Seven thousand years ago, in the Changbai mountains of northeastern
China, local shamen defined and developed our first system of plant-based health maintenance. With meticulous accuracy, they
refined what is still the most sophisticated form of herbal healthcare on Earth. Extensive modern research has proven the
accuracy of these ancient shamanic observations and the efficicy of the herbs and therapies they documented. Their philosophies
on health became the foundation of Taoism and formed the concept of Yin and Yang.
Dean will discuss the facinating
origins of this little known health maintenance system and its benefits as and addition to a healthy diet and lifesytle in
this perilous modern world.
Dean Thomas completed and 8 year apprenticeship with Chinese Taoist Master herbalist
Ron Teeguarden, and is an intitiate into the Chinese herbal lineage known as the "Gate of Life School", which originated
in 2975 B.C. and focuses on longevity, wisdom, adapatability, and prevention of disease through the use of whole herb tea
formulas as nutrition. Dean will discuss how Chinese tonic herbs have been used for centuries to harmonize the mind, body,
spirit, help enhance the creative expression, and promote excellent health.
Dean will be available directly
before and after the lecture for private consultations, employing raditional Chinese tongue and pulse analysis for an extra
fee of $20.
Raw food delicacies and a special Taoist herbal "Spirit Potion" will be served.
Please RSVP so that we know how much refreshments to prepare.
You are the light of abundance, enjoy your empowerment!
