Supportive Therapies

After studying Qing Zhi Bing as a sub-specialty of Traditional Chinese medicine, you can also learn supportive therapies to explore your healing and experience of Life further, or be of service to others in more specific and beneficial ways.

Somatic Processing and Conscious Coregulation

Modern Psychotherapy originated as a replacement for talking to a priest. Talking to a priest replaced talking to an Elder, Healer or a Shaman of some kind.

For some things to change within yourself, they must be witnessed by another.

Psychotherapy implies that you are working with a licenced Psychotherapist, applying specific theories and therapies towards you long term psychological health. The treatment process is usually focused on personality types and traits, behavioral and mood disorders, and even more serious concerns like Schizophrenia.

Counselling implies talking with someone who has training or significant life experience in a subject, such that they can offer you ‘counsel’, or a conversation that leads you in the direction you need to go. Counselling is often more invested in the counselling relationship and the bigger picture of how you approach any problem, more than being treated for a condition. Some forms of counselling are rooted in philosophical or religious systems of thought, while other focus more on Embodiment, or even art.

Co-regulation is a natural process that occurs between two of more people who choose to maintain an awareness of their interaction, ensuring that neither person is taken out of their sense of autonomy or adaptability. This approach to resolving a Qing Zhi Bing is preferred because the focus is on state of Being, even more than the story – or the parts you have words for.

The process of Qing Zhi Bing therapy follows an open landscape for some intuitive self-assessment and flow. There are many models of self exploration and awareness, from your internal organs, meridians, ancestral influences and Soul(s), energy centers, aspects of cognition, innate aspects of Mind, all the way to common embodiment patterns of distress.

Your Embodied experience of distress is the landscape of your Healing Journey.

Your daily life and sensitivity to dysregulating experiences is the weather, gradually supporting life and/or eroding the land. In practice, on your own, or in a Counselling and Coregulation Session, you can choose any attribute of Being (like the embodiment of apprehension), and then apply the appropriate practice, from Conscious Movement, Breathwork, Self Healing forms of Qi Gong, Voice Dialoguing, personal reframing, and Spiritual Recapitulation skills.

Having a map, you can plan your Somatic Processing journey over a few months with a counsellor, and throughout the rest of your life as you encounter deeper and deeper layers of Embodiment and Self.

If your Life has been disorienting enough, the Personal Reorientation (Qing Zhi Bing) process is self-guided, intuitive, very rational, and also Step-by-Step.

If you feel in need of Spiritual Recapitulation, your journey will necessarily include aspects of Being beyond the Egoic Self. One way this is accomplished is called Lun Dao, or conversations about practice and the Teachings of the Ancestors.

A good conversation can be life changing!
