Saam Acupuncture and Meditation for Grief

Abstract

Yong-Suk Kim*

This serves as an introduction to the traditional Korean acupuncture procedure for treating grief. In order to engage and guide the patient's mind in channelling sorrow, Saam Acupuncture/Meditation uses meditation on the acupuncture points prescribed by Saam's Lung channel. This has been proven by the author to be very helpful in treating pathological sorrow because it provides the patient the power to manage their grief by meditating on the acupuncture points both inside and outside of the clinic when it overwhelms them.
