Episode Description:

On this episode I welcome Brian Falk on the podcast to speak about the way his practice of Chinese Medicine has been informed by his study of depth psychology, particularly the archetypal and imaginal approach of James Hillman.

In the second half of the episode we talk about his recent book entitled Circling the Drain, which explores how the late comedian George Carlin and renegade psychologist James Hillman critiqued modern culture through a creative use of language and incisive humour.

Brian Falk holds a Master's Degree in Chinese Medicine from Five Branches University in Santa Cruz. Brian also earned a PhD in Depth Psychology with an emphasis in Somatic Studies from Pacifica Graduate Institute.

Brian lectures and teaches on topics such as vision improvement, food as medicine, and using acupuncture and massage for chronic pain. Brian maintains a clinical practice in Ventura, California.
