Here's Some Interesting Details for a Few of these Topics...
Quantum Physics,
TCM Classics and the 3 Regions of the Brain...
You will explore a fascinating integration between classical & modern TCM and how the profound knowledge of healers thousands of years ago was and is perfectly aligned with current thoughts in quantum physics and healing.
We also learn how the evolution of the brain is such that it is constantly changing and moulding to help us maximize our purpose and destiny in life.
The Science and Effects of Emotional Pain and Trauma (TCM and Western Models)...
Starting to explore trauma stemming all the way from utero, through the process of birth and throughout life.
You will learn the everlasting impact of trauma on the body and how we carry these effects in our physiology.
You will learn how trauma affects and shifts our personality and decisions throughout life and the many hidden symptoms we carry in our bodies and the overall impact on our (your clients) lives.
You will then explore how we can use the understanding of trauma and how to process it, shift it and resolve it and of course release it from the body.
We will explore full treatment options that are available with TCM, the 8 extra channels and what western medicine has to offer including the areas of the brain affected and how they characterize changes in our behaviour and decisions.
The Hypo and Hyper states of the 5 Spirits
and their implications on behaviour...
We know in TCM that the 5 Spirits (Shen, Yi, Po, Zhi and Hun) have an influence on emotional attributes. But to what extent? How do the 5 Spirits/5 zang organs characterize and shape our personality? How do they influence every characteristic trait and emotional reaction. How does the hypo and hyper states of the Spirits impact our levels of confidence, assertion, trust, building bonds, compassion, obsession, narcissism, resentment, forgiveness (or lack of), drive, sexual orientation, procrastinations, lying, spiteful behaviours, dominant behaviour and submissiveness and so much more.
An In-depth Analysis of Stress, Anxiety, Depression,
PTSD, Grief, Addictions and so much more...
What if anxiety, depression, bi-polar and addictions are a normal and mechanical intelligent response from the body to help us re-evaluate our past, present and future and our illusive fears and threats? This is a powerful segment of the 3 days as you will learn ground-breaking information that will completely transform what you may currently know about such common emotions and how they impact our mind and body.
We will explore physiological, psychological and pharmacological connections between the body, mind and brain amongst these mental health challenges with an understanding of CCM, TCM and WM models.
The Psycho-Emotional Applications of 50
of the most powerful Acupuncture Points
for Emotional Empowerment...
You may know that points clear heat, move stagnation, move blood, expel wind, resolve damp and calm shen. Am I right? But did you know each point has a story? An innate nature? A personality?
This module is by far one of the most loved and interesting segments of the seminar. You will gain a thorough understanding of the psychology of points, combinations, techniques and associations to physiological changes that can bring positive transformations. You're going to LOVE this segment!

Content: Has me yearning for more, especially around consulting & breaking down psycho-emotional patterns. Great insights that I have applied to myself personally I will continue to do, keen to learn more and apply to clinical cases.
Delivery was on-point well played and engaging for participants. Sohial clearly knows his content no question unanswered even with complex.
Live case studies. Inspiring!
Some content way over my head, likely distracted in making sense of prior content again, has me keen to keep learning this approach to healthcare and to attend again.
- Andrew Romano
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Sohial's knowledge, experience, and awareness of the human condition is exceptional and grounded in a deep desire to be of service globally.
I'm so grateful for the experience to expand my awareness in the area of trauma. This is going to have an immensely positive impact on my personal and professional development as a practitioner as well as creating a powerful opening for my clients to transcend their experience of emotional trauma.
I'd love more case studies with real-life examples so I can walk out of mere section will intangible confidence to apply the teachings and will even homework and personal development journaling its self-reflection for self-application too.
Thank you!
- Leonie Beck

So effing Inspiring!
Content - so juicy, loved it. The amount was great and the place was excellent. I LOVED when you drew diagrams and the live case studies as they helped to integrate the learnings from the day 1’s.
Sohial, you were my lecturer in Uni and really inspired me to delve more deeply into psycho-emotional aspect of TCM and keep expanding from there!
This course took me back to my early learning and ingrained the knowledge and was inspired me further! * Also Id love to do the Quantum Eight Extras course!!!

A course comprised of healthy doses of philosophy, psychology, neurobiology, and Chinese Medicine.
Awesome, Sohial is a very engaging and knowledgeable scholar-practitioner.

Sohial seems to pull information amd energy out of a never-ending pool and delivers it all in a way that is engaging, easy to understand, with humour, but most profoundly in a way that inspires a beautiful unfolding is transformation within truly a gifted presenter with important messages to share

Brilliant and unique combination of classic TCM teaching and its connection to psycho-emotional roots. A “must know” in everyday clinical practice. Dynamic and well-prepared presentation.
Thank you.
Suzanne Black - Acupuncture Student, Melbourne

An extremely well-organised and fascinating 2 days, with a Master Teacher.
To have the opportunity to learn from the deep well at Sohial’s extensive study at this subject has been an absolute privilege.
If you get the opportunity to attend this course, I will heartily recommend it.
Sharon Keenan
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My experience over the last two days has been unbelievable. My personal growth was as fastest as Sohial talks. I would not hesitate to recommend this seminar to any practitioner. It bridges the gap from thousands of years of knowledge to todays society.
The addition of Sohial’s psychological prowess completes the journey. Much appreciatethe experience. Keep up the great work.
Grayson Fong - Acupuncturist, Sydney
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Good speaker, free flow and precise in wording and theory at TCMKnowledge very deep.I would like to learn more and definitely will add your available courses out.One day learning would have been great.I love the feeling that you “walk the talk”, you’re very authentic for me.
Linda
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Many concepts that are familiar have been presented in a very clear and understandable way and I gained a deeper knowledge.
The topic is extremely fascinating and confirms that this is the right path for my future work.
I haven’t felt bored one moment during those 2 days, thanks to the deep knowledge of the presenter and his enthusiasm for the subject. I would love to hear more about the subject and would be interested in an exchange with other practitioners in this field.
Thank you so much for 2 very inspiring days.
Jean Phillippe Riezz
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The 8 extra meridians are extremely powerful due to their accessing Q1 at its roots, Jing and Yuen Q1. There is frustratingly little information generally available re: the syndromes associated with their dysfunction or treatment strategies. Sohial Farzam has created a through, detailed and theoretical and practical system which he and his students have proven in clinical practice over many years.
The course is a Godsend to the practicing acupuncturist. A real eye opener.
Bruce Du Ve
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Fantastic 2 days, so informative and inspiring. So much information presented in a professional and fun way. We learned so much. Thank you.
Caitriona Mullins
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
In my daily clinical work as an acupuncturist, I experience bet results by creating emotional moments to transcend trauma. Hereby focusing on the virtue of the corresponding emotion.
This seminar was a big pleasure to understand more about this satisfying week. I feel very thankful (deeper understanding).
Arturo Fasciato
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I liked very much how you integrate old Chinese medicine wisdom with “modern problems” we see every day in the clinic. I learned a lot about traditional spiritual meanings of TCM; I like the way you mix cases with theory, it’s a pleasure to listen to you and learn from your experience.
Thank you!
Sandra De Martin
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I was so delighted to be able to attend this seminar. I love Sohial’s work and it was a joy to witness his enthusiasm and passion for his subject, in person.
Sohial is an engaging and enthusiastic presenter. He draws from his clinical experience and personal experience to explain and contextualize the concepts he is teaching. Interspersing some of the more challenging concepts helps to maintain interest and creates levity.
The content of the course surprised my expectations and Sohial’s knowledge is exceptional.I’m so looking forward to put my learnings into practice and to the next seminar that Sohial runs!
“Sohial – your enthusiasm + passion is a joy to behold”
Thank you,
Fiona
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I totally enjoyed this 2-day workshop. I am about to become an acupuncture student and found the content of this course extremely inspiring + loved the way Sohial weaved all the aspects of Mind/Body/Spirit together at a very high level and also the neuroscience of how the western model maps similar concepts.
Sohial is a great presenter/teacher with in-depth knowledge of his field with so many other systems to draw on. He has done so much personal development work, his spirit, enthusiasm and passion shines through. I have learnt so much and am looking forward to start my acupuncture training having this foundation and overview.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great now, Sohial interconnects the east and west. Knowledge of psychology. I appreciate the view of the 8x of Sohial. Thanks! Very inspiring :) I want to know and learn more!
Nancy Ribi
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I learned a lot, and the content is really interesting. It would be great for me if we can have one more pause (each time shorter, but more than one).
Thanks a lot.
Linxin Zhang
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The material presented was very interesting and deepened my knowledge. Thank you, and I hope I can attend more of your classes.
Germa Maane
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It’s a pleasure listening to you, very active, joyful and enthusiastic. I really like your style of teaching, you’re quite fast and you don’t repeat the things few times. I like that.
It would have been nice if you would have talked more about self-cultivation, how to transform negative emotions into good stuff. What can the patient do by himself in between treatments. Sometimes it was hard to understand because my English is not that well, but I highly recommend the course to others.
Thank you very much for your time and teachings. I really appreciate it and I wish you all the best on your life journey.
Micro Wider
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I highly recommend this seminar to other practitioners. Very good guidance, excellent presentation, clear speech, soul and spirit. Congratulations! Personally, I find this topic the most important part in accompanying client/patients/persons (apart from TCM treatment). I always include it in my daily work and also in my personal life, in order to understand who I am, I need to know how I feel. This includes all Sohial is mentioning in this seminar. Thank you for your clarity, in order to feel clearly.
Rita Streale-Qud
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Very impressed by your knowledge! Clear structure and language. Nice that you intergrade quantum physics etc. Thanks for your openness and personal story-sharing.For me, perhaps a bit less discussion of separate points, more combinations you use in your cases.
Thanks a lot! I enjoyed!
Roger
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The topic of mental and emotional health is extremely important in this time around. Sohial gives an impressive insight in it. It’s a lot of substance in two days, but t definitely makes you wanting to go deeper into the issue.
His message goes way beyond what one expects. His import and to name it and point it out, even it sounds esoteric – it’s not – it’s like how its functions physiological.
Thank you very much Sohial.
Have a safe trip back home :)
Nina
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A lot of valuable information on this great subject of psychology + emotions.
Sometimes too fast to get it all written down. Voice recording would be great to be able to listen to it again..
I love the subject! Needling technique is important.
I would definitely recommend it to colleagues
Thank you!
Ilona
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Attending the Transcending Trauma: “The Road to Emotional Empowerment” seminar was an extraordinarily inspiring experience. I evoked a send of nostalgia reminiscent of my time in Sydney, where I encountered similar exceptional practitioners. Sohial Farzam’s depth of knowledge in both CM and Science is truly exceptional. His extensive study, eloquence, and profound understanding, enriched by a plethora of literary works, create an unparalleled learning experience. As a seasoned traditional CM practitioner, his ability to encapsulate existing knowledge into a comprehensive view, elevating it to a new dimension. (Vibration, string theory) within CM, is remarkable, Farzam’s approach transcends the traditional boundaries of Chinese medicine, offering a captivating perspective on Emotional Empowerment. It is and was a true blessing to listen to his insights shedding light, love, shen, and ling on an entirely different facet of his ancient practice.
Thank you Sohial and keep going.
Madeline
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I appreciate the rich information and personal experiences you shared with us, although I felt sometime slightly overwhelmed.
As an experienced practitioner in Chinese Medicine in a clinic for mental health I am happy to work in a treatment concept. The deep knowledge I gained in these 2 days is a treasure for me and my patients.
As a Qi Jong practitioner I would have appreciated to free sometime the Qi for the head and have some small breaks in movement.
I would recommend this seminar to experienced practitioner.
Thank you!
Plusi Judith
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The seminar was interesting with lots of information. I have lots of patients with mental health issues and this course give more tools to better be handle my patients.
I had very difficult case with mental health issues because I share my practice with others psychologist and psychiatric doctors and get most of their difficult patients. After this seminar, I will have more information on how to treat them.
Thank you for the great seminar and I would recommend this seminar to other practitioners.
Sandrine Ngo
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Yes, I would definitely recommend this seminar to other practitioners. It is a lot of content for 2 days like the richness I particularly loved all the case studies and great examples of your practice.
Your personal development is very inspiring as well as your background and history!
Kasir Bigle
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Overall, good course, good structure and presentation. I also work with the root. I liked at most the explanation of the tongue, new for me in this way.
The explanations about the diseases – very interesting. Thank you for giving me another perspective on the diseases.
The topic is deep but sometimes too general I missed, the organs in the elements anger will be lived different from liver or gall person. Repression of anger. What happen when we are always in anger?
I missed the difference between feelings and emotions, that would be important to know like anger turns to enthusiasm/optimism and so on! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
