Are Ancient herbal formulas still available, I found that today's herbalist draws on ancient herbal formulas that have been getting sick people well for a very long time. Those formulas work as well in America today as they did in China ages ago. Three forms of Chinese Medicine are Acupuncture, the first formal record of acupuncture was compiled in China between 300B.C. and 100B.C. but that compilation is so extensive and complete it's obvious acupuncture had been practiced long before that time. Based on archaeological discoveries, scholars now believe acupuncture in a rudimentary form may date back 5000, even 7000 years. Meridians form highly-complex invisible network transporting and directing Chi to every part of the body including the head ,arms legs, torso, organs, and systems. Good health, Chinese sages of old discovered, depends on a balanced circulation of Chi throughout the meridians. Over centuries of trial and error and meticulous observation, the Chinese accurately mapped the locations of the meridians and identified hundreds of specific points in the meridians where Chi can be accessed and stimulated when there is aberration of flow. Those points are commonly called "acupoints." Over time more points have been discovered. Chi is also known as the life force, since the total absence of Chi is death, obviously one's good health depends on a balanced distribution of Chi throughout the meridian network that influences the organs as well as the bodily systems: skeletal, muscular, endocrine (glands), circulatory, digestive, respiratory, urinary, reproductive, and nervous. When Chi flows smoothly throughout the meridians, each bodily system and organ interacts with and affects all the other systems and organs, which are interdependent, interrelated, and integrated. i n turn Everything works together to make us feel in whole and healthy, thanks to Chi.
Chi Gong is a time-honored exercise method of addressing many health issues while enhancing one's physical and mental vitality. Through a process centered on pleasant, flowing movements, one gathers Chi-the life force-and directs that energy to specific organs and meridians. If one is to enjoy good health, Chinese medicine teaches that a harmonious balance between yin and yang influences must already exist in organs and meridians, or it must be attained. The attainment of such harmony is the goal of acupuncture.'

I wrote this years ago to prayer at thanksgiving An American Turkey Day But a dispute and all with our plans canceled the reading of it! Probably A Good thing Because It Is lacking A true deep effort of inclusion of so many important memories to include as for the Bad ones Sorry h just sorry about the hurriedness and losses !!It is at my age a unfortunate that my desire and interests have strayed from diplomatic status into selfish wants and un focused toward the horizon to establish peace full relationships to set a good example and worldly walking unscathed -yet-equal balances our journey I saw injustices Fronted shelves of so called products and animals Pis Cows Feed the society yet keep the world safe teach the children yet protect their faith-Country side and the big city, make your own clothes a stay fashion and if something isn't right do the right thing buy it all and send it back where it came from in better condition...or request it be corrected mocked belittled all these
Things
To a better future!!! The three ancient Aqueduct's ,the fair trade, the garden the farmers market the soldier the uniform the love the hate the truth to the promises we must not hesitate yet must not rush for the time to tell when the mud has settled and the path is safe to walk again in peace and harmony this is the mission I qualm and explain myself and reach deep inside my soul for an answer It drifts In and out so quick that I loose my way my visions I try to keep to myself for evil will surely want to find a way to make a dramatic impression ,a lasting ying to yang and a intersperse that no one understands again the wisdom to know.A water fall of collisions insured to fix the wreckage!!!
