Given the complexities of modern life, a new lifestyle that combines personal self-care, soul growth, and a responsible stewardship of the earth has gained tremendous ground in the last decade. More and more people now want to live their lives in a more balanced and holistic way. They have realized the importance of staying healthy, not only in body but in mind and in spirit.
This new consciousness has brought to life home businesses that cultivate the ‘new age’ philosophies, thinking and lifestyle. Here are a few of emerging and potentially rewarding ‘new age’ home businesses:
1. Aromatherapist
2. Organic Farmer
3. Reflexologist
4. Feng Shui Consultant
5. Acupuncture – Acupuncture is becoming increasingly popular in the United States and other Western countries as more people see its benefits in promoting health as well as managing illness. Acupuncture is a system of healing that has been practiced in China and other Eastern countries for thousands of years. Although often described as a means of pain relief, it is in fact used to treat people with a wide range of illnesses.
To be an acupuncturist, you must have completed a thorough training in traditional acupuncturist and western medical sciences. In UK, the British Acupuncture Council requires a minimum of 3 years education, and those given the certification can carry the letters MBAcC after their name.
In California, acupuncture as a profession is regulated by an acupuncture committee, which requires practitioners to take up courses in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) from a school or college acknowledged by the committee. You must also pass the examination from the California acupuncture committee. The examination has two steps: a writing examination, which includes theories of TCM, acupuncture, points of human body, modern physiology, anatomy and so on. The second step is a clinic examination, where you are required to show your ability of diagnosis, herbal knowledge and points knowledge. Those who pass all the requirements will then receive an acupuncture license and can be titled as Licensed Acupuncturist of California.
