We didn’t go away – we just moved

September 4, 2014 By Don Ka'imi Pilipovich

We didn’t go away, we just moved. Across the country.

Our residence and the Future Medicine Today office have moved to Connecticut.

If you’ve been trying to reach the office, please don’t give up. The office has been mostly non-existent for nearly a month, and not very responsive leading up to that. But we are now moved and will be catching up on correspondence over the coming weeks. Hopefully we can get caught up soon, but if you have an urgent request or question, call us at +1 303-442-5222 (the phone actually rings again now) or email us at office@futuremedicinetoday.com.

We’ve had a very difficult year personally, and that has already impacted on office operations. So it’s been an awkward time to move, and our apologies to everyone wondering what happened to Future Medicine Today.

But we really felt for own well-being and for us to continue our work in bringing Accunect to the world we needed to be in a good place for us. Boulder is a great town and on paper a likely place to launch a cutting edge energy medicine system. But we had so many challenges in so many different areas of life and work there we had to accept that it is not a great town for us. After a lot of research and discussion and a bit of intuition we settled on New England and specifically Connecticut.

There’s a never a good time to make a big move, but we really felt like we had to move now. As hard as it has been on continuity, it would be worse later. We are modernizing the website and our systems to support other instructors in the near future, and it will only get harder to move later when we have more people to serve.

It’s been harder than we thought trying to sell our house in Boulder, find a place to live and a place to run the office from in Connecticut. And then actually move home and office across country before school started. But we are here now. Here is Ridgefield, Connecticut – full address at end of post below.

A few words of advice to our community :

Students: If you need information about upcoming courses, or have questions, watch the website for new postings and keep trying to call or email.

E-course students: Check your email for updates today and over the coming weeks.

Coordinators: If you think we are supposed to be finalizing an upcoming course, we probably are and need to talk. I’ve scheduled some of you in for meetings, but reach out and be proactive: email us again.

SelfCare Instructors and Instructor Trainees: We are working on a new website portal for you and there will be some policy updates coming soon.

Patients: A lot of people haven’t been rescheduled because of uncertainty of timing of move. We will contact you soon to reschedule, or email us for a time. New office hours for appointments are Tue, Wed, Thur from 9am to 4pm Eastern time (minus lunch time)

Finally, a big thank you to Christi Stone, who helped us for much of our time in Boulder. Due to our move, she is no longer working in the office and she will be very hard to replace. Until we can find the right person locally here in Connecticut, I (Ka’imi) will be answering the office email account.

Our new mailing address is
Future Medicine Today
54 Danbury Rd #347
Ridgefield, CT 06877

New Office hours: M-F, 9am-4pm Eastern time zone

The rest is still the same:
Phone: 303-442-5222
Fax: 303-993-3065
Primary email: office@futuremedicinetoday.com

Ending the War at Home

June 24, 2014 By Don Ka'imi Pilipovich

What if there was a war overseas and you signed up to serve your country and then you got there you were told you could never go home from the war? That would be cruel, inhuman, unjust and unfair. For many veterans, that is exactly what happens. Their body comes home, but their nervous system stays at war. It’s like never really coming home. It’s hard to re-adapt to normal life, to come out of fight or flight mode, to feel safe, secure and able to focus on relationships, getting a job, and building a life when your nervous system believes you are still at war. For some the journey back home is only terrifically hard. Unfortunately, for too many it seems impossible and they give up on life when everything they try fails.

The need to help veterans make this transition is huge, and I’m very honored to have been invited to present Accunect Connect for the veterans community. Accunect is a very powerful tool for releasing deep emotional trauma and balancing the bodymind on all levels to come back to stability and health and the potential to help veterans with Accunect is exciting.  The course is being organized by Pathways for Veterans, a national organization that helps veterans to heal and to reconstruct their lives. They have a powerful vision of hope for veterans by helping them find their path to health and wholeness through creative programs in many areas.

I’ve worked with some veterans in the past and I know this work can help. Accunect was developed to address the root causes of disease – which in traditional Chinese Medicine is mostly emotional trauma. Over my many years in practice I’ve really seen that underneath the most difficult physical and psychological problems is deeply held trauma. Often this is in the form of abuse or other severe emotional trauma from childhood. Since children don’t have the tools and maturity to deal with these traumas, they just become imprinted on the nervous system. The patterns of stress underlying disease aren’t conscious choices, they are reactions coming from deep within the nervous system.  For veterans, the stress and trauma comes in adulthood, but it is so intense and so unrelenting that it makes a deep and lasting impact on their psyche and their nervous system.

These kinds of stress are difficult to address using talk therapy for that reason. To get powerful shifts in these patterned responses you need to balance the whole bodymind to change the automatic responses – no one decides to jump at a sudden noise, it’s a nervous system reaction. You have to balance the nervous system, as well as the acupuncture meridian system in order to break the cycle.

It’s not just me that gets results with mental and emotional issues – the system works for everyone. Here’s a testimonial from Accunect student Gary Niki about his results using Accunect shortly after taking the class to help a client battling depression:

“Recently, during a bout of depression, I met with Gary Niki, who performed a procedure called Accunect Connect on me, a process in which one identifies “what is ready to shift” and then, through simple movements, helps that shift occur. Gary then showed me how to perform the procedure on myself. The results were amazing. Within about a minute of performing the movements, I felt something ripple free from my heart center. I continued to perform the movements and, as I did so, laughter repeatedly bubbled up. What an amazing shift from the feelings of despair and irritability I had been experiencing before beginning this process–and so fast. In just minutes I felt much lighter and happier. I can’t thank Gary enough to introducing me to this incredibly simple yet profoundly effective technology.”
–Marlis McCollum

Here’s the details about the class:

Pathways for Veterans
5932 Beech Ave
Orangevale, CA 95662

Why Ancient Wisdom?

June 4, 2014 By Don Ka'imi Pilipovich

I’ve been teaching my short course in Chinese Medicine for almost seven years now. First as Chinese Medicine for Bodytalk Practitioners, and then redesigned for everyone as Accunect Ancient Wisdom.  With the redesign, the material is even simpler to apply in practice. More importantly, I made much more practice time so that people could experience a balancing  on each meridian by the end of the course – we end up balancing everything from head to toes during the course.  This makes it more transformational than before.

I originally thought of it as a really powerful tool for practitioners – you gain enough understanding in three days to be able to use the extensive handout pages using muscle checking. The results are pretty cool – I get tons of feedback from students with no prior training in Chinese Medicine that their clients really relate to the balancings that come up. And I get professional acupuncturists taking the course who tell me that it helps them to think outside the box and adds ease and power to their sessions.

I’m pretty proud of how well the course works as a professional development tool. But it’s not the most important aspect of the course.

The most important reason I teach the course is that it brings hope. Once you have a basic understanding of Chinese Medicine a lot of things seem more possible. Lots of conditions that are considered difficult or incurable in western medicine are simple energy imbalances in Chinese Medicine.

For example, asthma is a difficult condition in western medicine, relatively simple in Chinese Medicine. In fact, to get acupuncture needles as medical devices, the acupuncture association decided to pick asthma as a test case – because asthma is easy: you can get much better results with asthma using Chinese Medicine than with western medicine.

Atrial fibrillation is a difficult heart condition with no good treatment in western medicine.  In Chinese Medicine it isn’t a heart condition – rather it is an imbalance between the Kidney meridian and the Heart meridian. This shift in perspective makes it treatable.

For practitioners, having a deeper understanding of what is possible increases confidence and enthusiasm, which is then shared with the client energetically, thereby increasing results. For everyone, gaining insight into what is possible helps give hope – for yourself or for a family member or loved one. This is invaluable.

The course also really helps to explain the mind-body-spirit connections in a very tangible way.  And experiencing those connections during the practice sessions during the course makes it a felt experience.

I hope you can join me sometime for this weekend of transformation, inspiration, with a lot of effortless learning and balancing thrown in for good measure.

New Blog

May 29, 2014 By Don Ka'imi Pilipovich

Welcome to the Accunect Blog!

It’s been a crazy year.  I had a lot of personal challenges this year that took up way too much of my time.

Plus, I’ve been trying to develop the new website, the practitioner directory, a new certification course, and preparing the Connect instructor training program.  Bottom line is something had to give in that whole process and it ended up being the email newsletter that I used to send out.

I could moan about how busy I am, and that it’s not fair, but that’s life.There’s probably at least one of you who has too much to do as well. The trick to a healthy, balanced life is being able to adapt. That’s what I teach anyways. Accunect helps a person recover from stress and come back into their “adaptive range.” When we are in a place where our body is able to adapt to stress, we stay healthy. Sometimes you end up teaching what you have to learn.

A lot of people have written to ask us to please make sure we have their email correct as they haven’t received a newsletter. It’s nice to know that people find what I write interesting and want to stay connected.

So I’m adapting by changing my strategy: we’re discontinuing the old newsletter format in favor of more frequent blog posts – you’ll get more frequent, shorter emails with a link to the latest blog post, plus a little additional info about upcoming courses and other news. The old newsletter was daunting to prepare, and many people said they didn’t have time to read such a lengthy email. So this will be a win-win for everyone.

Perfect is the enemy of good. Voltaire said something close to that, and I repeat it often. Now I’m listening. I think of something interesting to say at least once a week, and I’m just going to say it when I think it – instead of waiting for it to fit into the next newsletter, or my next book.

New website

May 29, 2014 By Don Ka'imi Pilipovich

Hey! Check out our new website

Lots of people have asked why isn’t there a website called Accunect? It would be easier for people to find Accunect on the web if the website was called Accunect.

You asked, we listened. We’ll be in the process of editing the new site for the next few weeks, and it will take that long for us to move all the content over from the Future Medicine Today website. If you can’t find something on the new site, the go look for it on Future Medicine Today.  For the moment all e-courses will still be through the old site.

The new website is built on a more modern platform and will allow us to grow with Accunect. It also supports mobile browsers – you should be able to access it on smartphones and tablets just fine.

We’re adding more information on what Accunect is from a client perspective to make the website a resource for clients. There is a new practitioner listing page to help you get found and to recognize you for your training – we’ll be adding people to the listing as they qualify – look for details very soon.  The practitioner listing is up and live, and I am starting to the SHARE program people who are already pre-qualified. Some countries are getting listed twice, that will be fixed soon.

There will be a new member area as well. One login password will give you access to everything you have signed up for. All Accunect students will still be able to download Health Maps and other resources as part of their free membership. If you have purchased an e-course, access to that will be under the same login. Give me a couple of weeks to get it all working without bugs. Until then, Future Medicine Today will still have everything available for now.

We’ll also be able to support having additional instructors – we begin training of Accunect Connect instructors in June! As in this month!

Enjoy!

DKP
