My Story
My journey into healing began with a child's curiosity and blossomed in the misty mountains of Southwest China. There, in the vibrant Yunnan Province, destiny revealed itself in unexpected ways. Walking the halls of Kunming's Yunnan Provincial Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, I discovered a world where ancient wisdom meets modern healing. But it was in the remote villages where magic truly happened.
I found myself learning from Naxi shamans in Lijiang, their Dongba traditions whispering secrets passed down through generations. In Zhongdian, Tibetan healers shared their sacred knowledge, each encounter adding another thread to the tapestry of my calling. Among these keepers of ancient wisdom—whether in bustling hospital corridors or quiet mountain temples—I didn't just find a career path. I found my purpose.
The flame ignited in those mountains still burns bright today, fueling my passion to bridge Eastern and Western healing traditions, one patient at a time.
