Inspired by a Master
Aromatics East West was inspired by the pioneering work of Dr. Jeffrey Yuen, my teacher. Dr. Yuen comes from two Taoist lineages— 88th generation of the Jade Purity School, Yellow Emperor / Lao Tzu Sect, and 26th generation of the Complete Reality School, Dragon Gate Sect. He is recognized internationally as a master scholar, teacher and practitioner of Classical Chinese medicine. He has taken the ancient Chinese medicinal tradition whereby herbs, ointments and liniments were applied to acupoints, and revolutionized it by his innovation of using essential oils.
I am infinitely grateful for Dr. Yuenʼs generosity in sharing his extensive knowl- edge of this powerful healing tradition.
An Ancient Tradition
Thus, Aromatics East West holds a unique position in the todayʼs market. It is one of the few available oil blends formulated according to Chinese medicinal perspectives.
Aromatics East West formulas are deeply rooted in ancient tradition—specifically, the writings of the Nei Jing (The Yellow Emperorʼs Classic of Internal Medicine), the mystical Taoist philosophy that is the ancient foun- dation of Chinese medicine. Aromatics East West draws on the law of signatures, plant energetics and five-element theory–therapeutic concepts that have been clinically tested and proven for over 2,500 years. Dr. Yuen says, “essential oils are the dna or jing (life force) of the plant.”
Aromatics East West takes aromatherapy to an exciting new level by applying essential oils to meridian acupoints. This use of an ancient, proven delivery system is one of the most effective and direct healing modalities of holistic aromatherapy. None of the conventional applications in use today (including pulse point, inhalation, massage, bath and compress) can match the potency of meridian point application.
