How to write a Chinese Herbal Formula

With Cormac Ferguson

Dear Doctors and Students,

Starting on Sunday February 26th, and running every other week for a total of five Sundays, Yosan University of Chinese Medicine will be hosting an in-depth course that will teach the art of Chinese herbal formula construction.

From the first class, you will learn the skills necessary to write formulas that address the type of conditions seen in the modern western clinic.

Each class will run from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and will deliver quality education that is both informative and clinically effective.

The focus of the class is to easily teach you proper formula writing skills. However, it will also hone your diagnostic skills, increase your herbal knowledge, and give you the confidence needed to effectively practice Traditional Chinese Medicine in a way that is both respectful of its traditions, but still relevant to the type of patients seen in the United States.

Along with this, you will receive a free copy of the recently published 683 page book, “The Book of Modules”, which is a formula construction workbook written to make the process of formula writing much easier, and less time consuming.

This course is especially useful for the student looking for a way to deepen their understanding of Traditional Chinese Medicine, or the doctor who wants to expand their herbal practice in order to attract new patients.

The details of the location and price for this excellent class are listed below.

Testimonials

"I can't describe the joy and relief I had when I met Cormac and took his Herbal Formula Construction Class. After taking his class I can confidently build a formula for any pathology. If you are someone that feels overwhelmed by formula's and herbs, frustrated by the way you are being taught, or need to brush up on your formula's this is the class for you."

-Vincent Hosfield

Cormac Ferguson sets the foundation for authentic herbalism. His book,

"The Book of Modules", and his lecture series have helped me

immensely.

Edsel Tan, L.Ac.

I have been a Physician-Psychiatrist for over twenty years, and have studied with Cormac in order to benefit my patients. I, like many before me, found Chinese herbal knowledge to be very hard to organize. Cormac greatly simplified that problem with his new manual. It is a great assist in constructing a "formula" that is both simple and effective. I feel very fortunate to study with Cormac and hope that he will continue to offer more classes and even further refine the many clinical pearls that he now provides.

Dr. Alan Blanc M.D.

Cormac Ferguson is an herbal formulas master. His knowledge is not only vast and thorough, his passion on the topic is infectious and as a teacher he ignites the room with his inspiration. He is a teacher of teachers and more than anyone I have met throughout my time as a Chinese Medicine Student he has helped me make sense of herb combining and formula writing in a way that is both highly effective and safe . For anyone lucky enough to learn from him, you will not be sorry!

Terra Gold, 4th year TCM student

Finally, the complexity of herbal medicine is now translated into a simple, pragmatic and easily applicable model! Cormac has created a classification of herbal medicine which allows my Western mind to feel at ease prescribing tailored and elegant herbal formulas; while honoring the wisdom and experience of our brilliant ancient doctors, what a gift to our community!

Thanks for the hard work Cormac, your contribution is so valued, and needed!

"Cormac shows you how to construct a formula based upon a clear

diagnosis and this shows you how you can go beyond what he teaches and

discover for yourself the world of herbal medicine in TCM. In

Cormac's seminars, the knowledge he offers will greatly enhance your

skills and consequently boost your bottom line as a practitioner of TCM."

-Jim Harris

"Cormac's experience with herbs is amazing. He is able to break it

down in a way that no one has been able to do. A while

ago he offered his class of Formulas for a weekend. My confidence in

herbs went through the roof. Cormac makes it easy to break down the

herbs and formulas. Within the teachings are all the Dui Yaos (paired

herbs). I loved this class!"
