THE FIVE ELEMENTS AND FIVE ELEMENT ACUPUNCTURE

According to Chinese philosophy, all things are manifestations of the Dao - the eternal, the infinite, which breaks apart into two opposing and complementary forces known as yin and yang. These are the inside and outside of everything, the pairing of all opposites, and they divide further into five phases known as the five elements. These are given the names Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water.

Each element creates the different organs of our body and, in nature, the seasons of the year. They also create the deeper levels within us, those of our soul. They are the phases through which all things pass from their beginning to their end.

In five element acupuncture, diagnosis and treatment is based upon an understanding that each one of us has a particular relationship with one element, our guardian element. This element gives our life a certain emphasis, making some of us more serious or light-hearted, others more determined or anxious. It is this element which takes the brunt of the stress we are suffering, revealing its unease through physical and emotional signs of imbalance.

These we can detect through our senses. Five element acupuncturists learn to develop the sensory skills of seeing, hearing, smelling, touching and feeling, skills we are born with, but rarely use in the modern world. In a similar way, they also learn to diagnose patients’ emotional distress, which lies behind the masks we may throw up to hide our unhappiness.

"Barefoot in November" by Benjamin J. Carey

Benjamin J. Carey was working on a first novel when he was diagnosed with an ascending aortic aneurysm. The book went on hold, and the next year and a half of his life was an emotional rollercoaster.

He ended up having life saving open heart surgery and he was so impacted by the experience that he started a blog to help others going through open heart surgery called Heartosaurus.com.

Subsequently he published a book about the ordeal called "Barefoot in November". He has gone back to working on his original memoir to be published in 2012.

Here is what people are saying about "Barefoot in November":

"A must read for everyone, especially those who may be looking at open heart surgery......"

"I couldn't put this book down staying up half the night to finish it! I found myself laughing out loud one minute and crying the next!....."

"This book made me cry a little (not very British!), laugh a lot, and it provides the much needed inspiration that we all need to survive life's difficulties and challenges with a positive spirit. Benjamin's writing style reminds me of the way another one of my heroes, Tim Ferriss writes -- a young guy with lots of balls!"

"A true page turner. This book sucked me in and I found myself not able to put it down......"

"This book was a very easy read and a definite page turner. From the start it keeps you begging for more! It is humorous, sad, exciting and bittersweet......"

Benjamin lives in East Northport, NY with his wife and three children. For more information visit www.benjaminjcarey.com or www.heartosaurus.com.

This is what Benjamin had to say about my book:

What I've enjoyed most about running Heartosaurus is the many emails, new friends, and stories that I've been privileged to hear. Heartosaurus has become a camaraderie of Heart patients, driven to increase awareness, help others, hold the medical community to a higher standard, and to prove that there is always enjoyment to find in life no matter what the circumstances.

"Papa Spyk" is a Heartosaurus. His story like other Heartosauruses is one of overcoming tragedy, and finding a way to keep going even in the darkest moments. There is something inside of a Heartosaurus that keeps pushing on, even when the lights dim on life.

Like me, Papa Spyk has written a book about his journey and like my book "Barefoot in November", his book "A Naughty thing Called Life" is captivating. It's not a depressing old story about the trials and tribulations of someone facing death, and it doesn't read like a medical manual. It's a thrilling story with ups, downs, and living on the edge. If you're a heart patient you'll identify and love the book, but you will enjoy it even if you're not because it is a damn good novel with entertaining content.

Papa Spyk is quite the character, and I urge you to check out his book which will be released publicly soon.
