RECENT SEMINAR COMMENTS FROM STUDENTS:

I appreciate Dr. Yuen's multi dimensional approach, the integration of East/West/Daoist/Historical perspective.  This class deepened my understanding of Eastern nutrition, and I feel I can now share these ideas better with my students and patients.

- Dorene H. L.Ac.

 

This course was fantastic.  Jeffrey Yuen presented an enormous amount of material in a very organized way.  His teaching style lends itself to helping the participants make connections within the material.

- Elyce K. M.D., MPH

​

It more than met the stated objectives - so much valuable information!  This course was so insightful, purposeful, and relatable.  So grateful to have taken this course!!

- Patricia S. L.Ac.

 

All the information is very practical and can be utilized immediately in one's practice.  Any time this course is offered again I would recommend this to any and all acupuncture practitioners, because it is indispensable in working in Chinese medicine.

- Gabrielle Z.L.Ac.

​

Excellent transfer of learning.

- Skyeler F. L.Ac.

 

Dr. Yuen is the only CCM professor I recommend.  Yes, I think this course should be mandatory.  Always inspired by Dr. Yuen's lectures, classes and his brilliance.

- Robert F. L.Ac.

 

Made me thirsty for more info on food energetics! Wonderfully informative and still dipping our toes into a huge subject.

- Jenny W. L.Ac.

 

Exceptionally good!  I am really glad I took it!  I feel there was a huge hole in my education as_the teacher for Chinese nutrition at University knew nothing about it at all! Thank you Jeffrey!_very useful and applicable information!

- Merle M. L.Ac.

 

It was gorgeous.

- Yvonne H. L.Ac.

 

This course was fantastic!  Simply the BEST! Deep knowledge, excellent teaching, deeply blessed that Jeffrey is sharing his knowledge and gifts!

-Francis F. L.Ac.

 

Thank you AUCM staff for bringing such a high caliber of Jeffrey teachings. Not all schools or venues allow or encourage him to speak and teach from the same podium of transmission that you do. I deeply appreciate this, however it seems to transpire.  Many thanks for this level of teaching to support all of our mastery within the context of Jeffrey’s teaching and the practice of Chinese Medicine. 

- Demoiselle S. L.A.c.

 

This class went well beyond my exceptions.  It was my first webinar with Dr. Yuen.  Dr. Yuen's beautiful drawings and instructions will be embedded in my mind.  Dr. Yuen was brilliant combining the 'art and science' of integrative medicine so that practitioners of TCM can maximize their skills in treatment protocols.   Thank you.

- Asha R. L.Ac.

 

Very rich, deep material that I feel grateful for exposure and hope to utilize in helping others.

- Lisa S. L.Ac.

 

The rigors of daily practice can make it easy to forget the incredible power of our tradition of medicine, thankfully Jeffrey is there to remind us!

- David F. L.Ac.

 

Jeffrey's methods are like no other.  I mean how could we compare?  The sum of information he transmits is indeed overwhelming and the tone almost hypnotizing.  Yet, it's totally appropriate too his own style.

- Bertrand L. L.Ac.

 

Jeffrey;s teaching style is very methodical and complete.  He brings so much wisdom and understanding to the information he shares.

- Vanessa M. L.Ac.

 

Jeffrey is as always a source of wisdom and inspiration! A true treasure and I am grateful for any teaching and also for your organization for making it possible to attend online in such good quality.

- Anouchka D. L.Ac.

 

Thank you for making this program available!  I can't tell you how much I look forward to them and learn from them!

- Garreta K. L.Ac.

 

Masterful and engaging, Jeffrey's teaching style is approachable and subtly playful.  I highly recommend any of his classes that draw your attention.  Thank you again for enlightening experience.

- Christina C. L.Ac.

 

Simply the BEST! Deep Knowledge, excellent teaching, deeply blessed that Jeffrey is sharing his knowledge and gifts!

- Francis F., L.Ac.

 

This course was excellent.  While four consecutive days was a lot, it was such high quality!

- Michael S. L.Ac.

​

Thank you for the excellent setup, registration, handling our questions, and the careful camera work, which makes Jeffrey Yuen's classes even more enjoyable!
- Joyce W. L.Ac.

​

I have been attending Dr. Yuen’s lectures for many years and have always been highly impressed by the depth of his knowledge and the fluency of his communication.  As Einstein said, the true test of your knowledge is whether you can communicate it simply.

- Peter W. L.Ac.

​

Jeffrey is a treasure.  Truly an encyclopedia of Chinese medicine.

- Camille V. L.Ac.

​

I’m very grateful to Master Jeffrey for sharing his deep knowledge and wisdom.  It makes a huge difference in the modern world.  It is very much needed.  Thank you!

- Adam P. Student

​

Jeffrey Yuen is the highest level teacher of Chinese medicine.

- Stan P. L.Ac.

 

Dr. Yuen's teachings are inspirational.  We are fortunate to have him available to our healing community.  I hope to participate in future courses.

- Jane B. L.Ac, RN

​

Thank you for bringing this priceless knowledge to the world!

- David. S., M.D.

​

A wonderful, inspiring, compelling course that spoke to all that is important in our connection to the plant world.  What an honour it is to study this work with Jeffrey.

- Tina C., L.Ac.

​

Jeffrey Yuen is a blessing for us.  In this journey, Master Yuen brings us to not only to herbs but also a lot of different thinking processes.  This is a reinventing of life and medicine.

- Fatih S., L.Ac.

​

Dr. Yuen’s wealth of knowledge and experience is a constant source of inspiration.  He presents large concepts and then breaks them into smaller bites.  He always leaves us wanting more.

- Linda R., L.Ac.

​

I also must take this opportunity to offer my thanks to the organisers of the course. As an online course the
execution of the technology is paramount and that was done robustly and at no point, during any of the
seminars, did I feel like it was not well managed. Communication was fantastic. If a hybrid (online and in-
person) class were organised in the future I would have no qualms about attending online because I’m sure
that the online participants would be supported as much as those attending in-person.

- Robert A. L.Ac

​

The filming is always seamless and the online platform works very well.  Although nothing takes the place of being somewhere in person, I’m so grateful to be able to attend lectures without having to travel.  Thanks so much for facilitating!

- Jennifer A., L.Ac.

​

Jeffrey Yuen is such a delightful teacher.  I look forward to future courses with Jeffrey.

- Julia U., L.Ac.

​

As I noted I’m very grateful of this opportunity to take this class online.  I studied under Jeffrey from 2005-08 at Swedish and then post grad from 08-13 at his Chinatown location.  I do hope this allows for future online classes, it's a beautiful and excellent use of the technology.  One of the bright moments of this entire period of pandemic.  Thank you all and I look forward to the next class(es).

- Jomo S., L.Ac.

​

This is an inspiring class on Classical Chinese ethnobotanical medicine – no one has this information anymore, a true treasure and an honor to learn.  I will be using this information to add to my herbal class curriculum.

- Charis W., L.Ac.

​

Jeffrey is a gifted teacher!

- George M., L.Ac.

​

More Jeffrey, A National Treasure.

- Stan P., L.Ac.

​

Learning from J. Yuen is a precious gift.  It is not just technical it is the metaphor for all of life.  I am thankful every time for his teaching.

- Janet B., M.D.

​

I feel so inspired and excited about taking the ideas discussed in the lecture and putting them into practice.  I’ve been really unhappy about the disconnect between Chinese Herbal medicine and the plants themselves.  I’m excited to start again by putting together my own materia medica and connecting in a deeper level with the plants.  I’m also really excited to be going over the ways of thinking behind the classic texts and understanding so much better where the formulas stemmed from.

- Erin A., L.Ac.

​

As always….the class was great!  Jeffrey is playful, funny, full of insight and wisdom.  What a blessing to receive this transmission on herbs.

- Christina C., L.Ac.

​

I am incredibly grateful for this continued offering of Jeffrey’s teaching.  Thank you for making this opportunity available to learn via webinars.  While nothing replaces in-person learning, this allows me to continue taking classes without the extra expense of travel and lodging.  I look forward to more classes in the future! Thank you!

- Christopher O., L.Ac.

​

Another great course, thank you so much for organizing.  My studies have continued to deepen and I so appreciate continuing to find new ‘a-ha’ moments after years of study.
