Hoping Malcolm or someone else might be able to help here.
I'm taking a class essentially on "alternative" frameworks to pyschotherapy. Half of it is good, some information on Ayurveda and a little on TCM. The other half is almost unbearable new age nonsense, seriously it's bad.
I'm wondering if a kind of primer of Tibetan Medical theory exists that would be helpful - specifically with Tibetan Medical views of psychological states and conditions.

Diamond Healing is an old book, which has a lot of this sort of issue.Johnny Dangerous wrote: ↑Mon Apr 12, 2021 5:32 pm Hoping Malcolm or someone else might be able to help here.

The Complete Book of Tibetan Medicine is good, as is Birth, Life, and Death by CHNN.

Re: Tibetan Medicine primer - especially for pyschological states
Hello do you have any opinions on Basic Concepts of Tibetan Medicine? I picked this book up at a local used book store awhile ago. I personally found it very limited in scope, as it is a slim volume, .. but it was interesting to see the surface of various topics in Tibetan Medicine be skimmed.Malcolm wrote: ↑Mon Apr 12, 2021 7:14 pmDiamond Healing is an old book, which has a lot of this sort of issue.Johnny Dangerous wrote: ↑Mon Apr 12, 2021 5:32 pm Hoping Malcolm or someone else might be able to help here.
