Episode Synopsis "Chapter 1"

This is the first Chapter of the Su Wen. This is one of  the foundational texts in the medicine and I am sharing my reimagined or rewritten version where I am trying to condense the text to its foundational principles to get a deeper understanding of the medicine and than using those to explore ways to use them in my Shiatsu practice. In the first chapter it is just setting up the idea of what it means to live in a healthy way. If you have listened to any of the earlier podcasts I often express what is said here!
