I know I’m a “living system” because…….
When I think of living systems, I automatically think of oxygen, carbon dioxide, breathing, and food. Living systems require these things to survive, and without them, they're considered not living. While some systems may be more complex than others, human beings are the most complex in our world. I also think that non living systems don't have an impact on others, while living systems do. If the smallest living system, such as plankton, were to become non existent, then the entire food chain would be extinct. It would affect every single thing including humans, and our planet as we know it would be non-existant.
Biophysics and Traditional Chinese Medicine
I feel like as TCM becomes more popular, it's constantly being compared to biophysics, which is essentially all things western medicine. I think it's a pivotal point in time because as TCM becomes more popular, it'll change (in either a positive or negative way). While on one hand, it will encourage more people to try acupuncture and create more job opportunities which is a good thing. However, I think it will also cause a shift in how TCM will work. If it becomes regulated, practitioners will have to conform to western ways and may be restricted in some of the things, such as prescribing certain herbs. I think overall it's a good thing that they're being integrated, but it's still a question of if or what will change.
