Aging And Living With Grace

— "As Jason Elias reflects upon the health crisis now facing us, he keeps hearing Qi Bo's gentle, insistent voice: "In the past, people practiced the Tao, the Way of Life," he said. "They understood the principle of balance … they maintained well-being of body and mind." The words are thousands of years old, but the wisdom is timeless.

Jason knows from experience that the pathway to health and harmony is not as formidable as it may initially seem. "The brilliant gem is in our hands," advises a favorite Zen saying. We don't have the time to wait until, the ozone hole is mended, the groundwater is purified, and the air is once again free from contaminants. To restore harmony, we must initiate the change ourselves, taking control of our bodies and accepting responsibility for our health. If we can restore balance within ourselves, we will have taken the necessary first step to restoring balance without."

Valeria Teles interviews Jason Elias — the author of "The Seven Graces of Ageless Aging: How To Die Young as Late in Life as Possible."

Jason Elias has been in private practice since the 1970's, treating thousands of patients by integrating acupuncture, herbal medicine, body work, and nutrition. Over a period of forty years, his professional training has included work in the United States with acknowledged leaders in the fields of psychology, the Alexander technique, massage therapy, bioenergetic therapy, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and herbal medicine, both Eastern and Western. His passion for discovering the root of healing has taken him around the world in search of the commonalities among the healing traditions of ancient cultures: in Japan with masters of Aikido; in Hong Kong with a prominent Chinese acupuncturist and herbalist; in India, with an Ayurvedic master; and in the Philippines studying with their indigenous psychic healers.

Author of several books, Jason has been the keynote speaker at conferences on health and wellness and has been a frequent guest on television, radio and podcasts.
