Chinese Medicine & the Heart

James Mohebali, Chinese medicine practitioner, joins John today to talk a little bit about Eastern and Western medicine and a lot about the heart. You see, it may not just be a pump moving blood around. James takes us away from a mechanistic viewpoint and (re)introduces ideas that have been around for a very long time.

"Why Are We Talking About Rabbits?" takes you beyond rhetorical "rabbits" and the shallow approach that the media and most thinkers today take to examine contemporary cultural phenomena. Using theology, history, philosophy and years of travel in Mali, the Republic of Georgia, Haiti, and beyond, John Heers offers a refreshing take to how we got to where we are now. WAWTAR is all about talking about those heavy things… lightly.

Heavy Things Lightly
This “Enlightened” New World utopia isn’t turning out to be all it was cracked up to be. Society is disenchanting, but are the only alternatives hiding out in the hills or burying yourself in books? With an air of levity and a touch of humor, John Heers teaches how to examine the confusing New World by calling upon the mind and wisdom of oft-forgotten Old. Heavy Things, Lightly.
