Open seven days a week, our clinical services alternate between TCM and massage based lessons. We provide students with educational experiences right at their fingertips. 

OUR GOALS

SITCM strives to maintain a balance of progressive education mixed with personal and professional development. We aim to maximise the ability each student has to critically analyse research and cultivate a trust in interdependent decisions through clinical practice.  Providing a wide range of services, we encourage those studying to evaluate clinical information through differentiation. 

Each student should be able to pursue high values and chase their ability to exceed expectations in the health care world. Our clinic provides scholars and learners alike with a set arrangement to develop their clinical skill set. Starting at the basic beginner level and moving into observation, each lesson will provide a learning environment for our future practitioners.

The practice of mindfulness is a simple one, yet it has the potential to make a significant difference in the way you feel. Studies have found it can be an effective way of treating depression and anxiety. As a way of reducing stress, many people around the world have found it a useful tool. There are several ways of inducing a state of mindfulness, most of which can be performed by almost anyone. If you’re looking for a natural way to relax and reduce the amount of stress in your life, here are 3 easy tips on using mindfulness effectively. 

Practice Regularly

Mindfulness tends to work best when practised regularly over time. It doesn’t take much, just a few minutes a day can be enough, as long as it’s done often enough to become a habit. There are many simple techniques you can use to achieve this. Deep breathing, repeating a positive mantra, and merely spending a few minutes in silence are just a few ways you can achieve mindfulness any time. 

Be Aware of Your Desires

Reducing stress is a common desire of many, yet everyone has their own perception of what it means. By focusing on what positive qualities you want to enhance in your life, you may experience better results. You may find it helpful to assign certain themes or values to each day you practice. This can help make it easier to follow through with and can also help to reinforce the goals you’re trying to achieve. 

Mindfulness & The Principles of TCM

In traditional Chinese medicine, balance is the key to bodily health. Most TCM practices involve directing your body’s natural energies along certain pathways to keep them flowing smoothly. Applying these practices to the practice of mindfulness may help to enhance the experience; blending and balancing the energies of your mind and body simultaneously, and hopefully improving the way they both feel. 

At the Sydney Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, we provide accredited education and quality services across the spectrum of TCM. We’ve taught and certified people from around the world to help them achieve success in a rewarding field. Visit us here to learn more and book an appointment with our teaching clinic; and you too may learn how TCM can help to change lives for the better. 

Traditional Chinese Medicine, or TCM, has been practised for over 2,000 years. Originating in China, today this medical tradition is practised in countries worldwide. Western medicine has recently begun to integrate certain aspects of TCM such as evaluating each patient with an holistic approach.
