This series provides a wide spectrum of information regarding not only SPE blending and the use of SPE oil blends, but also physiology and pathology from both a Western and Chinese perspective, and the nature of trauma.
The 3-parts ostensibly focus on a blend Dr. Berkowsky formulated for use with those who were traumatized by the recent Los Angeles wildfires. Thousands of people lost their homes and all their possessions. Some lost loved ones and/or beloved pets. That experience is now being complicated by rainy weather conditions which potentiate landslides in the burned over areas of trees and brush whose roots would normally stabilize the soil.If any of you were personally affected by the wildfires or know people who were, and you would like to prepare the blend (SPE City of Angels Wildfire Trauma-Relief Blend), you will be able to do so after viewing the recording.
The blending blueprint is available to members of NHSS/SPE Membership Program to download. However, for most of you the series will serve the purpose of providing an in-depth view of the SPE method of blend formulation using the SPE Repertory of Essential Oils and SPE Materia Medica/Spiritualis of Essential Oils.
Part 1 of the video focuses on blend formulation that also includes a discussion of the fiv, the physiology of the liver, lungs and kidneys, internal patterns (i.e., internal cold, heat, dampness, dryness and/or wind), and an understanding of the nature of trauma.
Part 2 focuses on the application of the blend. The blend is being used in 4% dilution and applied to specific acupoint patterns. Dr. Berkowsky describes the use of specific synergistic vertical, horizontal or diagonal lines of acupoints derived from a system of acupuncture developed by the great 20th century master, Master Tung. These synergistic lines of points (comparable to lines of telephone poles along a country road), greatly amplify the chi signal generated by the practitioner’s treatment of them. These synergistic acupoint patterns are referred to as Dao Ma. he presents 4 different Dao Mas (one each for the kidneys, liver, lungs and stomach) which, in addition to being treated with the oil blend, can be treated with needles, or acupressure, a tsen-shin tool, color light and/or acupoint magnets.
Dr. Berkowsky also discusses the use in SPE of homeopathic-style potentized dilutions of the oil blend that is taken internally. He suggests that the City of Angels blend be applied externally to the 4 Dao Ma in 4% dilution and taken internally as a 4X potency (1 to 10,000 dilution). A 10 drop dose of a 4X potentized dilution represents the ingestion of only one thousandth of one drop of the blend.
Finally, in Part 3 of the video, Dr. Berkowsky goes over the blending blueprint for preparing the blend and discuss the SPE rationale for preparing a blend in layers. He explains why all SPE blends are prepared in a series of sequential layers and also discusses some of the alchemy techniques of SPE blending including the Surrounding Essence, Invisible Sparks and Magic Drops techniques.
