OPEN-BODY QI GONG & ONE-EFFORT CONSULTING CERTIFICATION TRAINING 

MODULE FOUR

Technically Module 4a, this one day workshop has two parts: Morning session gives you simple business tips on how to set up a private consulting practice or Eight Standing Meditation class, including creating a professional identity, client/student recruiting, professional relationship protocol, office organization, fee determination, etc. Afternoon session will teach you how to (a) orchestrate private sessions with clients/students, (b) impart certified teacher-level Eight Standing Meditation principles and methodology. Time will be allotted at the end to diagnosis and treatment exchange between participants.

*Only background in Eight Standing Meditations is required to attend this class.

GENERAL INFORMATION

The 200 hour Certification Program derives from the same curriculum as the certification program in “Therapeutic Techniques in TCM Psychology” offered to licensed acupuncturists at acupuncture colleges (see Trainings for Licensed Acupuncturists). Yet whereas licensed acupuncturists utilize the One-Effort model combined with clinical Oriental medicine diagnosis and treatment, lay Wasah certified practitioners utilize the One-Effort model customized to the vocational or relationship preference of their design and choice. Training is suitable for any self-motivated individual and is sure to enrich life quality and effectiveness in general. 

The curriculum has been thoughtfully designed to enable lay individuals and professionals to bring integrative balance and healing in all of one's life relationships. With emphasis on scientific character reading and character transformation this program can enhance your physical-spiritual life.
