Join Dr. James Mohebali as he interviews his friend and mentor, Brian Huwe, L.Ac., to get to the bottom of some of the difficult questions facing doctors, chiropractors, acupuncturists, massage therapists, and other health practitioners. Brian Huwe is a fellow St. John's College alumnus ("Johnnie") and a fellow student of Jeffrey Yuen. Brian practices acupuncture and herbal medicine outside of Roanoke, VA. They talk about the Chinese medical concept of the Heart as the emperor (which Dr. James mentioned in his "Heart is not a Pump" series, part 3). They also talk about different ideas about human nature, whether we should return to nature and aim for primal strength and hold up primal man as an ideal. They also talk about Aristotle, asceticism and fasting, parenthood, and Jeffrey Yuen's description of the primary channels of acupuncture (as they pertain to survival, interaction, and differentiation).

"Classic of Difficulties: Difficult Questions in Medicine, Acupuncture, and Beyond" is a new podcast and YouTube channel by Dr. James Mohebali, doctor of acupuncture and Chinese medicine.
We try to ask difficult questions from both a philosophical and a practical perspective about medicine, health, alternative medicine, and everything in between. We hope to deepen the conversation about medicine, taking it beyond the questions of "what's good" and "what's bad," instead trying to figure out what philosophies and assumptions underlie our approaches to medicine, so that we can begin to understand what's really at stake when we think about our health and wellness.
