Efficiently utilize the 111 metaphors in the new TFH Pocketbook with Chinese 5 Element Metaphors to feel better and to gain new insight and enthusiasm for your life. Adding the Metaphors of Organ Function & Muscle Anatomy/Function/Action, we have 111 distinct images that can be dynamically incorporated into our balancing sessions. Touch for Health™ Meta-Instructor Training (15 hours) Open to anyone who has taken TFH 1, 2 and the Metaphors. Only Certified TFH Instructors may teach the TFH Metaphorsand provide the official International Kinesiology College certificate. Designed for TFH Instructors who wish to also teach the standard 2-day TFH Metaphors workshop. Many avid students of TFH also attend this course to deepen their knowledge of TFH, Effective Communication & Dialogue for Goal Setting, and exploring Metaphor to deepen self-knowledge and effectiveness of TFH balancing. Touch for Health™ Proficiency Assessment Workshop (15 hours)​ This is a 2-day Workshop where you will work with other TFH’ers who have completed the TFH Synthesis (1-4).
