From The Editor

From the Editor,

 

Cheers all and hope you've had a fantastic week.  You'll hopefully notice a surprise or two in the news this week.  Sometimes I can't help myself and have to include the weird and absolutely crazy.  Because it's completely news to me that acupuncture can make you gay.  But if the Catholic Church says so then it must be . . . . well I'll just leave the rest of that thought up to you to finish.

 

In other news, ACTCM is celebrating Women's Health and Fitness Day early next week.  Take a trip over to www.ACTCM.edu for more information on the celebrations. 

 

If you have anything interesting going on or just need to sound off please feel free to send me an email.  I'm always at editor@theacuprenuer.com.

 

I do hope you have a fantastic weekend and plan to make the most of the last of this wonderful summer.  I will be helping my travelling friend go home to Italy after 2 months in the US.  I'm kind of wondering what magic we can perform to make everything he brought and bought into only 2 pieces of luggage.  Somehow I don't see it happening right how but when extra baggage costs 150 Euro each, it must!  Anyone know if vacuum bags are allowed in luggage these days?

Cheers all!

The Coaching Corner...
Where Spiritual Wisdom
Meets Business Common Sense

"Fall seven times, stand up eight."
~ Japanese Proverb

Greetings Dear Ones,

I am about to go off on holiday for two weeks and I wanted to share something that I feel is a very important happening.

An Acupreneur just invested in one year of private coaching.

Now this might not seem like a big deal to you...and that is only because you don't know my fees for private coaching and you also don't know that I have a 6 month waiting list for private coaching clients...but it is a big deal to this person, me and the profession.

You see, it marks a huge shift in the realization that we all need help in order to make major shifts in our lives!

Starting this September, I will be offering the Acupreneur and Acupuncture community group coaching.  If you are interested I suggest applying for a spot.

Anyone who wants to join the group coaching program needs to be a member of the Acupreneur because you will need access to that information.

Your application does not guarantee you a spot.  This is a first come, first served basis and is  based on your readiness for coaching.

Here is what you will receive during the group coaching process:

1. 2 group coaching calls per month.

2. Email support from me on Tuesdays through Thursdays, except when I am away.

3. Weekly Work Out log to check and evaluate your progress.

Click here to fill out your application.

Very best,

Dr. E

you would have wanted had you known." 
~ Garrison Keillor



"Without goals, and plans to reach them, you are
like a ship that has set sail with no destination."

Who else wants to know how to fill their
practice by UTILIZING their spiritual
values instead of compromising them?

Have you ever thought to yourself, "This has to be easier, it can't be this hard!"

 

Well you are not alone, there are thousands of practitioners out there who feel the same way you do and are struggling with the same challenges you are!

And that is why I wrote this book - to help you take the guesswork out of filling your practice and offer you a step-by-step method for filling it based on what is important to you with quality patients and clients.


You can purchase and download your copy of "Fill Your Practice In 100 Days, But Don't Start Counting Just Yet" right now!   Click here for more information...

  News of Interest!    
 

  Walsh slugging way out of jams, playing through pain - Kerri Walsh's and Misty May-Treanor's waltz through pool play in their quest for the first repeat gold medal in Olympic beach volleyball history might have looked routine. It wasn't. . . . . She sought out and began to receive treatment from an FIVB (international volleyball federation) physiotherapist named Periklis Charpantidis.  He's Walsh's secret weapon at the Olympics. Charpantidis, a Greek who lives in Athens, is in Beijing and performing acupuncture on Walsh's shoulder twice a day, and it's feeling better each day.



  SCUHS launches AOM program - Southern California University of Health Sciences (SCU) will launch a daytime Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (AOM) Program, with its first class to start in September.  The new daytime program is offered in addition to the current evening program, enabling SCUHS to better serve students through expanded options. John Scaringe, DC, vice president for academic affairs, said the introduction of the program fits into the long-term strategy of the university. "The move to a daytime AOM Program is the first of a series of steps to feature a fixed dual chiropractic/AOM schedule and eventually offer a doctor of acupuncture and Oriental medicine degree," he said.



  McCain's health insurance plan: More radical than Democrats'? - Democratic health care proposals may have gotten more attention during the primaries, but Republican John McCain's plan just might be more revolutionary.   The GOP nominee-to-be wants to tax workers on the value of the insurance they receive from employers.   At the same time, everyone would be offered a federal tax credit to help them pay for insurance -- whether a company plan or one purchased on their own. Buyers could subtract up to $5,000 from their federal tax tab come April 15. Or they could simply sign over the credit to an insurer in order to purchase coverage.


 
  Former Reds No. 1 shouldering blame - Chris Gruler was strolling through Home Depot one February afternoon in 2006 when his cell phone rang. The news wasn't good.  Gruler, a promising right-handed pitching prospect, had been drafted No. 1 (third overall) by the Reds in the 2002 First-Year Player Draft. But after multiple shoulder surgeries and ill-fated comeback attempts, the Reds released him.  Gruler, who never advanced past Class A, went 3-5 with a 5.08 ERA in 27 Minor League appearances. He struck out 71 and walked 57 in 92 2/3 innings between 2002 and 2006, sandwiched around three shoulder reconstruction surgeries.  Gruler used acupuncture and both weight-bearing and non-weight-bearing exercises to regain strength in his shoulder, but to no avail.



  UK Priest: Gays the Result of a 'Contagious Demonic Factor' - A UK Catholic priest warns in a new book that homosexuality is caused by a "contagious demonic factor," and that sexual promiscuity can lead to demonic possession. So can acupuncture, yoga, and horoscopes.



  Swiss help acupuncture clinic open in Vietnam - VietNamNet Bridge -- Vo Thi Minh Hien of Quang Ngai Province had endured pain from a sciatic nerve for many months but thanks to an acupuncture clinic funded by an overseas Swiss-Vietnamese professor, she is far more comfortable these days. Tu Kien Le donated 100 million VND (6,000 USD) in 1994 to help poor patients in his home-town in the province, and since that time, has sent 600 USD every month to keep it operating.  The clinic's manager, Dr Lu Thi Hong Hoa, says patients are offered free treatment and medicine.
