1) Discover Your Condition of Health: Self-Diagnosis, Remedies and Advice By John Kozinski
Medical testing is useful to verify if you have a serious disorder, but it can’t see disease tendencies or imbalances years before a illness has gained a foothold in your body. Macrobiotic diagnostic methods are based on observations of the body and behavior. The basic premise is that an energy imbalance in the human comprehensive energy network leads to disease. This leads to seeing imbalances long before disease is set in the body. If seen before, it is possible to apply remedies to correct these imbalances. John has taught and practiced oriental diagnosis and it’s application to food, and lifestyle remedies for over 30 years.
In this seminar, you will learn:
- the 6 basics conditions of imbalance that lead to disease and how to identify them
- dietary and lifestyle practices and home remedies to correct the 6 types of imbalances
- how to diagnose the health of the digestive system.
- how to diagnose the health of the circulatory system
- how to diagnose the health of the elimination system
- how to diagnose the health of the respiratory system
- dietary and lifestyle practices and home remedies to address health problems in the digestive, circulatory, elimination and respiratory systems
For those who wish to volunteer, part of the session will include group counseling where certain individuals will be assessed and given advice by John Kozinski.
2) How to Heal Your Emotions and Bring Balance and Joy to Your Relations with Tom Monte.
The macrobiotic diet gives us the foundation and clarity to bring awareness to our inner world – to our emotions, deeper feeling states, thoughts, beliefs, and perceptions. The food alone will not make us an effective and healthy social human being, nor will it make us a more loving partner or wise parent. For that, we must learn a new set of tools that help us heal the sources of our anger; that help us overcome behavior patterns born of fear; that bring compassion to our disappointments and our pain; that restore our inspiration. It has long been said that health is a state of wholeness, but how does one really achieve wholeness, or a state of integration? What are we meant to do with our anger, disappointments, and our inability to truly forgive? How do we restore love after being hurt? This workshop will address and provide solutions to all of these questions – and much more. You will learn how to explore your inner world and bring healing to aspects of self that have long been buried or repressed – parts of you that still long to be integrated and brought into the light of your love. This workshop includes up to a 2 hour follow-up session with Tom Monte.
3) Towards a New Direction in Macrobiotics - Ways in which it can grow and evolve with Denny Waxman
Macrobiotics is still in its infancy. What changes can we make to help macrobiotics grow into a productive role in society? We have a unique understanding of the relationship between diet and health and the effects of dietary choices on emotions, social interactions and the environment. This class will explore important necessary changes we can make in light of recent social events. We will look at dietary proportions, food sources, the use of Japanese products, cooking styles, use of protein as well as alignments with other groups and attitudes within the macrobiotic community.
