Guest guest Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Group, I agree with Z'ev and others that this is one of the most pertinent conversations we could have about our profession. These topics have obviously stirred up a lot in all of us. With the abundant energy this conversation has stimulated we can either integrate or fragment! We either choose to further fragment ourselves and the profession (by saying f-it or refusing the lack of its importance) or face these issues. (practitioner values, assessments of styles, evolving medicine, etc). What's the easy way out? Too fragment, not deal with it, its too aggravating, just push it out of awareness..and join a group that agrees with your own views. Growth and integration are not easy or comfortable. I encourage us all to work through this, at least just for the sake of having the conversation, not for coming to a conclusion per se, or pinning someone down, or getting so upset that we loose site of why this is all taking place in the first place. Sincerely, David Vitello Vitello Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009  Hi David and all: --David- Growth and integration are not easy or comfortable. I encourage us all to work through this, at least just for the sake of having the conversation, not for coming to a conclusion per se, or pinning someone down, or getting so upset that we loose site of why this is all taking place in the first place.  ---  I'd also like to point those who may not be aware of the article " Medicine is Signification " to http://www.siom.edu/resources/faculty/v-sheid/yizhe  Hugo ________________________________ Hugo Ramiro http://middlemedicine.wordpress.com http://www.chinesemedicaltherapies.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
