Daoist Death Medicine
Navigating the Death Canal with Alchemical Acupuncture
Daoist Death Medicine provides a path of awakening to your undying nature while offering an opportunity to explore Chinese medicine tools for end-of-life care. As we discover the elements of the false self which die, and the elements of the soul which do not, we will develop care plans that allow patients to pass with peace and dignity. You will learn how to support individuals through a compassionate Chinese medicine care model, exploring issues around grief, regret, fear, and how spiritual beliefs impact the living and dying process. Daoist
Death Medicine will immerse you in Daoist philosophies that influence the quality of life and death. You will be taken through the classical Chinese medicine understanding of identifying how each of the five elements and organ systems let go during both ego death and the dying process, and how to facilitate their release. Physical, mental, and spiritual observations, pulse considerations, and non-pharmacologic tools that aid the dying process include acupuncture, essential oils, qi gong, stones, herbal medicine, rituals, and ceremonies.
Pharmaceutical Energetics
Analysing Common Drugs Through the Lens of Chinese Medicine
This integrative text weaves western medical understanding into the framework of Chinese medicine, allowing practitioners to confidently make sense of how the energetics of pharmaceuticals impact their treatment plans.
It delves into the most common illnesses for which medicines are prescribed, including diabetes, mood disorders, hormonal imbalances, and high blood pressure, and how patterns of imbalance manifest in the body through the lens of Chinese medicine. This is paired with guidance on how prescribed pharmaceuticals impact the underlying energetics of the physiological system.
Rather than encourage a binary approach to treatment, Pharmaceutical Energetics instead develops a synergistic understanding between Chinese Medicine and Western medical thought. In doing so, Chinese medicine practitioners will be able to offer integrative treatment plans that take into consideration the effect of pharmaceuticals and how they might help or hinder treatment.
Rich with case studies and clinical experience, this innovative resource can help patients reduce their medicine or manage the drug’s side effects.

– Jill Blakeway DACM, Author, Energy Medicine: The Science and Mystery of Healing
“Randine has found a way to elegantly weave the language of spirit, Chinese medicine and allopathic diagnostics together that does not confuse. Rather each of these aspects serve to illuminate the others, adding clarity while inviting our hearts to feel the resonances…”
