Upgrade Link AGAIN

Dear Students,

The last link I gave for upgrading was a bit long and "broke" in some of the messages. You can use this shorter link instead if you have trouble with the first link:

Naturopathic Live Chat Next Week!

Just a reminder that I am organizing a live chat for students of the Naturopathic Healing Course next week. Since this is our first live chat I will be leaving the topic open for anything - need help getting started? Have a health question? Have a question about the classes? Have a question about a client you are working with? Anything goes!

All you need to do to receive an invite to the chat is answer the following questions and send them to me:

Note that this live chat is for students of www.TheAvicennaInstitute.com ONLY

Questions
1. How are you using your degree from The Avicenna Institute or how do you plan on using your degree? How are you using the information you have learned so far?

2. What days and times work the best for you (for the live chat)? Note that we will start with IM and no voice or video will be included for this first chat.

Thank you! We have one student signed up so far. I will post a day and time once I get at least 6 students.

Blessings & Health,
Kristie Karima Burns, MH, ND

Upgrade Link to Include Medicine of Avicenna Course

Dear Members,

Some members have asked if they could upgrade their membership from "Naturopathic Healing Course" to "NHCO AND The Medicine of Avicenna" classes. At the website you can register for both classes for a discounted price and these students wanted to know if they could pay the difference and upgrade to taking both courses.

Yes.

Usually I have a 30-day limit on upgrades, but since I will be raising prices the first week of August I will allow any student to upgrade until August 1st using the link below. Using the link below you will be allowed to pay 3 payments (over the next three months) of $50.00 each to upgrade to being a student in both courses.

New Student Questions- Getting Started

Hi Kristie, I'm working on my first assignment. I've read once you submit your first assignment you can request a student page. The info you set above "Username:******, password: *****" Is this my personal page or info to log into the website. Are student records kept on your site or do we receive all comments and corrections through email? Trying to get familiar with the resources so I have smooth sailing.

Kindly, D

Dear D,

For now this is the site that all students access. As I change things to the new system each student will have their own page where they will access their materials from. Right now, as each student completes their first assignment (or requests it) I do also set up for them an additional personal student page where they can access their corrected assignments and view their progress in the course. This is password protected for each student so only you can access your records. This will be a different password than the one you use to access the course.

I used to send assignments through e-mail but too many e-mails with attachments get lost. I answer questions via e-mail but all corrections and comments are done via the student page now. I upload my comments into your exam or assignment and convert it to PDF and then upload it to the page.

Great job getting to know your way around! This will really help you accomplish things much more quickly and experience a lot less confusion.

Blessings & Health,
Kristie

Temperament MP3? Herbal Databases?

A student just wrote to ask me about the herbal databases. This is a popular question so I will post the answer again to the BLOG and also remind everyone to check this BLOG for resources. This BLOG is where I answer all student questions. If you have a question - chances are that another student has had the same question and you may be able to find the answer without waiting for me to respond to your e-mail. To find answers to your questions come visit this BLOG, scroll down the right hand side of the page and click on the topic you want to explore or have a question about.

Here is my answer to the question - "Can you send me the temperament lecture? One of the herbal databases is missing, can you send me an alternate link?"


The MP3 for Exploring the Temperaments can be found on your Naturopathic Healing, Nutritional Healing or Typology and Temperament student webpage. This MP3 download is in the right hand column - scroll down and you will see an icon that says "Typology and Temperament Lecture.mp3"

Alternate links for the Herbal Books can be found in the "Resource Page" . You can link to the resource page by clicking on the link "Resource Page" at the top of ANY of the student webpages.

You can also find more Herbal Book links at the student BLOG at:

More Information on Su-Jok Therapy?

A student who is working on the reflexology class at this time asked me for additional information on SuJok therapy. This was my response:

Dear J,

I trained with one of Park Jae Woo's students. He is the ultimate expert on anything Su Jok. His website is not very impressive but he is the best. There are some books for sale on the site. It is hard to find information that is not connected with him.

His website is:

Updates for Herbal Databases

Question and Comments by Student about the Herbal Healing Unit: Joyce Herzog's work at egregore.com is not longer on line. I can't find any replacement on another domain either.

The second required reading by Lee Nelson, has moved from www.herb-database.org

to: http://www.twomoonstea.com/herbdata.html Do you have another suggestion for Joyce Herzog's database? M. Grieves, and Michael Moores are still available, though Michael Moore's is no long at about.com. its at http://www.swsbm.com/homepage/ Also, on that first recommended book, by Manfred Junius - has been rewritten and updated.

The original book is only available used and costs $35, but the updated book written in 2007

only costs $8.90 Thought you'd like to know that info. I ordered the 2007 version.

Let me know if you have something to replace Joyce Herzog. - DF

Dear DF,

I have provided substitutes and update them monthly on the student resource page. Log into your student webpage, click on "resources" and scroll down the left hand side - you will see some databases there that are very useful and completely replace the old ones that are listed. Thank you for the detective work and replacement links for some of the old databases.

Blessings & Healt
