Introduction

Steep something to steep in the discussion with us.

Join us as we explore past and current research on a wide variety of topics around various aspects of integrative medical practice.

We will have the following segments each episode:

"Spill the Tea" - a look at what we've been drinking or are drinking this past week

"Reading the Research" - we go over the studies we've gathered and are digesting from the past week

"Talking Story" - we share stories from our week in the clinic or in the classroom

"Reading Tea Leaves" - we look at one or many of the divinatory devices & reflect on the past/present/future

Steeped in the 10,000 Things will also aim to schedule interviews and will be open to suggestions on topics or deeper investigations into topics. Please feel free to reach out and share any questions you have about any of the topics we discuss. We love helping explain and explore more deeply on the topics we find interesting.

Dr. Michael E. Brown, DACM, L.Ac. is a doctor of acupuncture and Chinese medicine, licensed acupuncturist in the Bay Area, California, and life-time student of medicine, brings his passion for learning and understanding to the podcast, hoping to help bridge the gaps between simplicity and complexity to honor the mystery and nuance of nature and our experiences. He observes that classical Chinese conceptions of the body and medicine hold valuable perspectives and stunningly accurate understandings of human physiology that are frequently being explained and/or confirmed through current scientific research, which only highlights the need for both poetic and technical ways of seeing and explaining the complexity of human physiology. He is a tea lover, a home-brewer, a poet, and a happy father of a 2 year old.

Zachary Krebs is a student at POCA Tech, a community acupuncture program, and University of the People, a tuition free college educating people people without access to higher education. Both programs emphasize a core value and committment to open information up make it accessible to people turned away by our traditional institutions. Threading open source concepts into individual and community health is his passion. Also a tea lover and father to an almost 3 year old, he knows the value of keeping humor alive in these super serious times.
