The acupuncture channels are a curiosity that practitioners have puzzled, and argued, over for centuries. Even as these structures and processes so fundamental to life have been used for treatment and well being since Chinese medicine first began to emerge far beyond recorded history. In a sense, the channels are maps that help us to orient and navigate life, health and meaning.
In this conversation with Jason Brazil we discuss his voyage of discovery as he took his hand’s on experience as a massage practitioner, and began to investigate the clock opposite organ pairs of the Chinese meridian flow clock. We’ll touch on the importance of fostering a presence between practitioner and patient, the crucial role love and connection play in healing, the impact of self-cultivation on a healer’s capacity to work and the way love creates a matrix of connection for healing and wellbeing.
Listen into this lively discussion of body constellations, qi maps, and the reminder to bring love into your practice.
Deep love for ourselves and our patients is the most important thing for achieving positive clinical results.

My name is Jason Brazil. I am a licensed massage therapist, herbalist, and holistic health coach based in San Marcos, Texas. I work with clients from all walks of life in my clinic. Shiatsu-style acupressure and trigger point therapy are the main bodywork methods I practice. My clients and I also explore the mind-body connection through the lens of East Asian medicine.
I am the author of Body Constellations: The Meridian Map to Awakening Body, Mind, and Spirit – a layperson’s guide to the meridian system. In support of my larger writing projects, I write and publish poetry on Instagram every morning to keep the creative juices flowing.
When I’m not in the clinic or writing, I can be found teaching traditional Korean martial arts or swimming in the San Marcos River.
