There has been a strong, dynamic and extended movement in western culture to explore traditional medicine from many ancient cultures which received momentum in the early 1970’s. The study of Asian medicine has been in the forefront of this movement, particularly Chinese acupuncture, herbal medicine and the practice of Feng Shui. This workshop is conceived as an introduction to the philosophy and use of traditional medicine in Bali—why Balinese use it, its causes–both internal and external, material and spiritual.
This workshop is based on Made Surya’s research on traditional Balineses Healing and Healers only, and as such will not cover new and foreign techniques, such as the following:Reikie (Japan), palm reading (ancient India), tarot cards (Italy), astrology (Mesopotamia), Cacao ceremonies (South America), “Sound Healing(Tibet/Nepal), Kundalini Activation (India), or Chakra Cleansing (India).
