A ground-breaking journey across India, Tibet and China, to explore traditional medicine and natural ways of healing. With health care costs soaring in the west, looking eastward to alternative medicine may provide the only answer. In this comprehensive look into Eastern medicine we connect all three countries through the core philosophy of the Five Elements, Yin and Yang and the common belief that a life-force or energy called Chi (Prana) exists that is vital to sustain a healthy life. Now is the time to take the journey that will lead to better health - A Natural Way.
This is a ground-breaking journey across India, Tibet and China, to explore traditional medicine and natural ways of healing. With health care costs soaring in the west, looking eastward to alternative medicine may provide the only answer. Over forty percent of Americans will try alternative medicine this year!
Our story begins in India and the ancient vedic healing practice of Ayurveda - the science of life. Tibetan Medicine and Ayurveda share the same core philosophy - the Five Elements. The building blocks of man and the cosmos. Traditional Chinese Medicine is rooted in the Tao - the Yin and Yang of opposite forces that keep our body and mind in balance. All share a common belief: That a life-force or energy exists called Chi (Prana), that is vital to sustain all life. When sickness or disease occur the life force is unbalanced or blocked and this must be corrected. The most visible cure for western eyes is Acupuncture where needles are inserted intot he patient's skin at precise points on the body.
A Natural Way is a 2011 documentary with a runtime of 1 hour and 21 minutes.
