Dear Newsletter Readers 
 
Dr.Motoyama's AMI workshop is one month away! This workshop is about the AMI device which was developed by Dr. Motoyama to measure the balance of subtle energy and the effect on major organs. In this special workshop, the capacity of the AMI is explored how it can integrate Eastern and Western medicine. This unique workshop will demonstrate the relationship between meridian function and nervous system and would be beneficial for people who wish to develop holistic understanding of health.

AMIResearch_BreathWork AMI Research Update
 
The article below was first published in the Breathflow Wellness newsletter. Breathflow is a holistic health company led by R. Christian Minson, Certified Breath Facilitator, and former monk of 10 years. The Breathflow mission is to maintain the wellness of the multidimensional human being through conscious breathing techniques. The article is about the research on the effects of a particular technique called Transformational Breathing, using the AMI as the primary instrument for acquiring scientific data. 
 
 
  
 Exciting scientific news for the field of Breathwork-Breathflow has teamed up with LivingOne and CIHS (California Institute for Human Science) in a research project designed to quantify the unleashed healing energy that results from a Transformational Breathing™ session.
 
R. Christian Minson and Catherine Arena are partnered in the design and implementation of a future experiment with Koji Tsuchiya, PhD in Human Science, and researcher in the measurement of subtle energies in the human body. The team is attempting to add to the increasing amount of scientific studies that are supporting a conclusion which breathworkers have been suggesting for a long time: That the breath and conscious breathing techniques such as Transformational Breathing™ have incredible potential for healing and enhancing the human condition.
 
The experiment consists of a subject who is facilitated in conscious breathing for approximately 30 minutes while being wired up to an AMI machine (Apparatus for Meridian Identification). The AMI machine measures subtle energies in the human body, specifically through skin conductivity at the points on the hands and toes that correspond to the ends of meridian energy lines that run through the body.
 
These points are called "seiketsu" in Japanese; in English they are know as "well points". Eastern medicine understands these to be the "gateways," or conduit pathways to the flow of chi, also known as prana or life energy. The AMI machine measures variations in this energy conductivity through the body.
 
Koji's personal goal as a researcher is to provide positive proof that will scientifically integrate the physical and spiritual realms of existence. "To Understand Human Existence from the Total Perspective of Body, Mind and Spirit," is the principle at the top of the list of the foundational canons of CIHS.
 
When asked to comment on his involvement in the experiment, R. Christian Minson stated, "It is very exciting to think that we are actually playing on the razors edge where science and holistic healing meet. We are very hopeful that the experiment will yield some results that excite us and other scientists to further study."
