Greetings!
The arrival of Autumn has certainly brought all of the issues of the
Metal Element and the
Po to the forefront. Shock and grief and loss have been emotions experienced in strong doses in these past few weeks and months.
See our Trauma Protocols below
We had already planned the
forum for
this Sunday
to be focused on the seasonal change to the
Po and the
Metal element, and the
Lung and
Large Intestine
which are the associated organs of the Metal Element
. The current massive, uncontained wildfires just to the north of us, less than 50 miles away in Napa, Sonoma and Mendocino counties, have brought much grief, loss and severe issues of air quality to Northern California. Each of these issues will be addressed during this afternoon together.
The beauty of Chinese Medicine and Acutonics is that both
physical symptoms and
emotional states can be treated together. Indeed, the causative factor of many diseases in Chinese Medicine is said to be rooted in emotional imbalance.
But what about disaster situations? What about current trauma, not only the after-effects?
Come join us
this Sunday
for community and practical techniques and strategies to help yourself in these harrowing times we live in.
Please either
register
or
RSVP
(and pay at the door) if you would like to attend.

Protocol for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
|
|
|
Essentially, treating someone for PTSD, intense recent grief, or severe insomnia is a treatment that will share core qualities. May this be very helpful to all who encounter it.
The first principle in each case is to calm the Spirit
. Right now, the New Moon is your best tool for gentle yet profound treatment of a Shen or Spirit disorder. This is because: The heart houses the Mind, the Heart stores the Spirit.

Protocol for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder - Advanced
|
|
|
This protocol works by releasing the client from the repetition of victim / wounding by shining light and bringing consciousness into the time / space lockdown that they are trapped in. This liberates the Chiron wound that causes suffering, waking them from the endless dream.

Protocol to Pacify the Heart and Calm the Spirit
|
|
|
This protocol is very fast – it can be done in about three minutes:
Are you feeling triggered? Have a few minutes? Got forks? This is a fast way to Pacify the Heart and Calm the Spirit, or in western terms: Calm the brain and nervous system and reconnect to the Heart Wisdom, lower cortisol, and find your breath. Remember you are connected to the Divine.

Level II: Higher Harmonics & the Inner Nature of Tone
|
|
October 13 - 15, 2017
Friday - Sunday
10:00 am - 6:00 pm
Bancroft Center of Chinese Medicine
Berkeley, CA
Level II deepens the knowledge base of Level I. The new frequencies are the Lower Octave of the Earth Moon set, and the High Frequency forks - the octave above the mid-level set.
By the end of this remarkable weekend, you will have worked with three octaves of sound, which are phenomenal in their ability to
reach deep into the body, access the psyche, and work in the etheric field. You will learn new points, get more familiar with the points introduced in Level I, and revisit the 8 Extraordinary Vessels with the new frequencies.
For body workers: The low forks are what you have been looking for to reach deeper into the quads and gluteus muscles.
For energy workers: The high frequency forks will help you access and move the etheric field and chakra balancing at a finer level.
Level II is where the healer starts to experience oneself as musician and shaman as we travel up and down the octaves. This class will also explore the Shamanic aspects of Sound and of Chinese Medicine. You will learn how to use Tibetan bowls and bells, and incorporate all manner of tools as instruments.
Come join us for a wonderful weekend of Sounding!

November 3 - 5, 2017
Friday - Sunday
10:00 am - 6:00 pm
Concord, CA
Come join us in a three-day journey of music, art and mythic storytelling as we play, learn and traverse our own solar system! (As a tutorial this will be a 3-day class.)
This advanced training initiates Acutonics practitioners into a deeper understanding of the Music of the Spheres and its holographic and transformational relationship with the Earth and its inhabitants.
Using planetary tools, including Acutonics Planetary Tuning Forks, planetary gongs, sacred oils, attunements, and rituals, we explore planetary frequencies, archetypes, mythos, and their affects on the physiology, psychology, and consciousness. Students experience and work with the more sophisticated layers, applications, and techniques of the Acutonics System of Sound Healing.
Practitioners build on their knowledge of Acutonics Levels I and II and are introduced to the Acutonics Planetary Tuning Forks, Chiron Tuning Forks, Planetary Gongs, Planetary Chimes and custom blended essential oils with planetary frequency.

This class focuses on the personality, drama, diagnostics, and application that unfold with each harmonic interval in the Acutonics Healing System.

In this class, participants explore the unique harmonics, parallel fifths, and seeds of transformation that reside in the spaces in between. In addition, the powerful archetypes and tones of Nibiru and the Acutonics Asteroid Series are introduced.
