Excellent. As Cindy said, the content is very simple. It is presented in a clear and concise way to help the student move away from linear thinking and let the concepts in. Although I've been informally studying TCM on my own for 15 years, after 40 minutes of Class 2, I FINALLY understand what is meant by "deficient yin!" The colored blobs changing in size and Cindy's concise explanations really help me understand the concepts. When I dabbled on my own years ago trying to understand TCM, Yin and Yang, I certainly didn't reach a clear understanding. Cindy's course has given me a very clear perspective of same. The concepts are explained in a simple and profound way. This has created a strong foundation of understanding on which to build. Thank you!
