When I created the Ommani Center over 21 years ago, Integrative Medicine was a newly coined term. Although I had been practicing medicine integratively for over 10 years by then, this definition was formally considered a broader context of Medicine that explored root causes of symptoms for purposes of mitigating symptoms and curing disease. Healing modalities that were both conventional (traditional) and complementary were engaged, but with little to no standardization or evidence to ensure their safety or efficacy.

TCM Body Clock IX

Chunchieh Bruce Sun, Cac., MSOM, Dipl OM

The Pericardium Meridian starts from the chest, leaves the pericardium (the lining surrounding the heart) and runs downwards through the diaphragm to connect with the triple warmer (upper, middle and lower warmer). A branch rising from the chest emerges from the lower chest region and travels upwards to the armpit. From the center medial aspect of the upper arm, it makes its way down between the lung and heart channels, until it reaches the elbow crease. It then runs down the forearm and enters the palm ending at the tip of the middle finger. Another short branch splits off from the palm to connect with the Triple Warmer Meridian at the end of the ring finger.

Terror in Oz

Eric Ehrke, LCSW, LMFT



In the original book, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz before the terrifying flying monkeys took flight, Nick Chopper, the woodsman later called the Tin Man, fell in love with a humble maidservant from Munchkin Country named Nimmie Amee. When she returned his affections, Nick happily went off into the woods and began chopping down trees for their future home. Nimmie’s lazy employer heard about their plans and began plotting to keep her maidservant in her employ. The woman bribed the Wicked Witch of the West, who enchanted the woodman’s axe to prevent Nick Chopper from marrying his sweetheart.
