The Integral Stage AUTHOR SERIES: Integral Chinese Medicine w/ Lonny Jarret
For the Integral Stage Author Series, Layman is joined by Lonny Jarrett to discuss his new book, Deepening Perspectives on Chinese Medicine.
The conversation is rich and wide-ranging, touching on Lonny's early fascination with the Chinese classics as a child, and his concurrent educational journeys in Western science and medicine, Chinese medicine and martial arts, and entheogenic experimentation and the contemplative arts. Together they explore Western and Eastern conceptions of health, the importance of care for the body and its organ systems in cultivating integral development, the nature of chi and the chakra system, the potential emergence of a truly integral, world medicine that integrates the strengths of East and West, and much more.
Lonny is recognized worldwide as a leading practitioner, author, scholar & teacher of East Asian medicine. Throughout his career, he has been devoted to advancing the practice of this medicine. Lonny has been practicing Acupuncture and Herbology in Stockbridge, Massachusetts since 1986. He holds Master’s Degrees in Neurobiology (University of Michigan) and Acupuncture (Traditional Acupuncture Institute) and studied Contemporary Pulse Diagnosis with Dr. Leon Hammer for 10 years.
