During the past week I read a number of interesting links about Chinese medicine.
Mind you, I feel that I have a lot to say about most of them, and maybe I will dedicate a post to each in the future, but as for now, I wanted to share these links with you.
Miriam Lee passed away at the end of June 2009.
She was the author of the book Insights of a Senior Acupuncturist and was a pioneer of Chinese medicine in California.

One of two courses I’m taking this year talks about the Five Elements and the Shen.
I feel it’s one of the most important courses/seminars/classes I have attended. Both subjects are deeply interesting, and at least here in Israel, there aren’t many practitioners who can tell us a lot about it. Portland’s got Heiner. The UK had Dr. Van Buren.
We have Yair Maimon.
I know Yair for 10 years now. He started out as my practitioner and quickly turned to my biggest inspiration in Chinese Medicine and my greatest teacher of the field.
After 8 years of continuing nagging and begging, he finally started a course last December, which is quickly approaching it’s end, and I feel truly blessed and a bit sad that’s it’s about to become a memory.
Still, I learn so much each lesson. And though Yair emphasizes the practical clinical part of things, I find true happiness in the theoretical part of it.
