What is Shén?
Shén (Chinese: 神; pinyin: shén; literally "spirit; awareness, consciousness") is a keyword in Chinese philosophy and Traditional Chinese Medicine, and refers to the mind or consciousness that exists within all people. The Latin prefix acu- refers to that which is sharp, clear and in focus. Therefore the name of this dynamic style of East/West integrative meditation—AcuShén℠—specifically refers to clarity of mind, a calm and centered consciousness.
