Jeffrey Yuen: Hun and Po in Chinese Medicine

June 6 – 7, 2026, 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM

Register early! Class sizes are limited

Program Description

IN-PERSON or LIVE STREAMING

Intrinsic with the study of Classical Chinese medicine is the discussion of the Ling hun and Ling po. While the hun and po are often translated as the ethereal and corporeal soul and are said to reside in the Liver and Lungs respectively, there is little else that has been taught about these entities. Usually relegated to Chinese spiritual or religious cultural aspects, students of Chinese medicine rarely get the opportunity to understand their role in clinical practice, even though there is some inference to their significance in acupuncture point names. Some of their attributes have been the hun and its relationship to sleep, memory, and dreams, while the po has been implicated in fertility, death and dying, and even qigong.  In addition, as “spiritual” components of the Ling-soul, they are intricately related to the Shen-spirit and clinically implicated with psychological and mental illnesses. This seminar will explore, examine, and discuss the different aspects of the hun and po from the influence of Daoism on Chinese medicine. More importantly, the clinical application of utilizing the revelations invoked from accessing the hun and po for therapeutic treatment of learning disabilities, loss of memory, depression, insomnia, and other psycho-mental issues.
