Dragon Rises, Red Bird Flies: Psychology & Chinese Medicine (Revised Edition)Behind the acupuncture, herbal remedies and sophisticated diagnostics of Chinese medicine lies a congenial system of healing that embodies unification of body and mind, spirit and matter, nature and man, philosophy and reality. In this comprehensive and ground breaking presentation, based on long experience as physician, psychiatrist, and practitioner of Chinese medicine, Leon Hammer offers a new model for appreciating the traditional healers

Behind the acupuncture, herbal remedies and sophisticated diagnostics of Chinese medicine lies a “congenial system of healing that embodies unification of body and mind, spirit and matter, nature and man, philosophy and reality.” In this comprehensive and ground-breaking presentation, based on long experience as physician, psychiatrist, and practitioner of Chinese medicine, Leon Hammer offers a new model for appreciating the traditional healer’s effective and profound respect for individual integrity and energetic balance. Explaining, and moving beyond, the five phase (element) system, he shows that this Eastern practice is as much a spiritual science as a physical one.

Accessible to the layman, yet a resource for the professional in any healing art, this book examines the natural energy functions of the human organism as a key to mental, emotional and spiritual health. It offers new insight into disease, showing how it is not merely an invasion from the outside, but rather a byproduct of a person’s unsuccessful attempt to restore one’s own balance.

Great-Tasting Protein Shake With Fresh Product Dates and Excellent Nutrition
Flavor Name: Chocolate, Size: 11 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
I picked up this Premier Protein chocolate shake 12-pack mainly as a convenient daily protein option, and overall the quality has been excellent. The chocolate flavor tastes very good without being overly sweet, and the texture is smooth compared to many protein drinks that can feel chalky or heavy. The 30 grams of protein also make it very practical for quick meals, post-workout use, or busy days when preparing food is not convenient. One thing I appreciated is that the product arrived with fresh expiration dates, which is important when buying protein drinks in bulk. The packaging was also in good condition, and the bottles were easy to store and carry. The nutritional balance is another strong point, especially with the added vitamins and minerals included without extra added sugar. Compared to many other ready-to-drink protein shakes, this one feels lighter while still being filling and satisfying. In terms of value for the money, it feels like a very good purchase considering the quality, nutrition content, convenience, and freshness. Overall, a high-quality protein shake with excellent taste, fresh product dates, strong nutritional value, and very good everyday convenience. It can also be mixed with other flavors.

What's small and powerful and full of protein?
Flavor Name: Chocolate, Size: 11 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
This is better than expected - filling - chocolate-milkish taste - lots of protein - only o few calories - good for times you want to eat less but still have energy - It is a good product to have on hand - it is filling - this is not exciting but rather useful in a busy life -when you don't want to cook, before a medical procedure or any situation where less is more. The taste is good enough - best ice cold - I would recommend this product.

Good taste, No sugar, Low Carb, High Protein
Flavor Name: Chocolate, Size: 11 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
Highly recommended, no sugar, low carb, high protein. This exceeded my expectations. It tastes good chilled, much better than other forms of protein supplements. I have never had a ready mixed protein shake, so I was hesitant about buying it. Protein powder always tasted too strong & not good after taste. Although there are some Ok Protein bars, they do mostly have undesirable taste & not good after taste.
