WHAT IS ORIENTAL PSYCHOLOGY?
Oriental Psychology is the study of East Asian Mental Technology as it applies to the identification and rectification of mind/spirit disorders presenting in a clinical practice or in the course of daily life. In terms of the philosophy upon which it is based, the art of holistic restoration incorporates the ability to precisely identify the source of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual imbalances as well as the skill to design strategies to correct and harmonise them.


ABOUT THE COURSE
Students will learn how to develop a wide range of skills, techniques and practices, drawing
from the classic source texts ‘Chuang Tzu’ (Inner Chapters), ‘Sun Tzu Ping-Fa’ (Art of War),
‘I-Ching’ (Book of Changes), ‘Huainanzi’ (Leadership and Strategy), and ‘Wu Chen Pi’en’
(Understanding Reality).The main aim of the program is to establish a reliable, highly sensitive
and responsive patient management protocol that can be applied to any clinical framework or in
addition to the practice of other modalities. Incorporating Oriental medical concepts with the
science of the mind, students will learn how to apply various classical devices employed in the
practice of transpersonal Oriental Medicine to dissolve negative and destructive attitudes and
behaviours.Upon completion of the program, graduates will be able to apply their skills for
personal and professional use.
