#33 Lonny Jarrett on Transpersonal Psychology, The Tao, and 40 Years of Writing

I first published this episode on Pacific Rim College Radio, but this conversation is too fascinating not to share with the Salish Wolf audience. My guest is Lonny Jarrett, one of the world’s most recognized practitioners, authors, and teachers in the field of Chinese Medicine. Lonny has a gift for making the esoteric seem simple, and you do not need to be an expert in Chinese Medicine, or even have any knowledge of the field, to follow along and glean wisdom from Lonny’s experiences. We also discuss many things other than Chinese Medicine, including martial arts, transpersonal psychology, Taoism, and the art of writing.  

Lonny holds master’s degrees in both acupuncture and neurobiology and has been published in leading scientific journals. He is an expert in pulse diagnosis, having studied intensively with Dr. Leon Hammer. Additionally, Lonny has achieved the rank of fourth degree black belt in the Korean martial art Tae Kwon Do.

Lonny is the author of three distinguished texts in Chinese Medicine: Nourishing Destiny, The Clinical Practice of Chinese Medicine, and his newest release, Deepening Perspectives on Chinese Medicine. Nourishing Destiny is one of my favourite books, on any topic, ever, and I cannot wait to get lost in the pages of his newest book when it is released.

There is no experience that we have that doesn’t have a degree of projection.
— Lonny Jarrett

Lonny maintains his full-time practice of acupuncture and herbal medicine in Stockbridge, Massachusetts. He moderates nourishingdestiny.com, an online community of 3000 practitioners dedicated to evolutionary, ecological, and integral perspectives on Chinese Medicine.

This episode was pure joy for me to record, and I hope it brings many insights to you.

Please enjoy this episode of Salish Wolf with Lonny Jarrett.
