1
Something that I get to do, which I really enjoy and I'm excited about, is organizing the training programs for physicians to learn about anthroposophic medicine.
2
There are a variety of programs that are offered right now.
3
The cornerstone of them is the intensive training week
4
that we offer usually in late spring when we get physicians to come from all over the country, sometimes from other countries as well.
5
And this is actually a program which is taught internationally on five continents.
6
And we spend six intensive days really practicing new ways of thinking,
7
new ways of observing, building a therapeutic community.
8
And I would say also talking about what it means to be a healer.
9
And what is the path of being a physician who's trying to look at health and illness in a broader way.
10
And it's a joyful experience.
11
It's something I've participated in for about a decade.
12
And it's very exciting to see how physicians come into the trainings.
13
Many of them are already in clinical practice, so they have an established practice.
14
Good experience, a lot of expertise, but they are trying to find deeper meaning.
15
Sometimes people are frustrated that although they're practicing clinically correct medicine,
16
they're losing some of the humanity of their practice, of their interaction with patients.
17
Physician burnout is a huge issue right now.
18
And I can say that while many colleagues
19
that I know are thinking about early retirement plans and how quickly they can exit from clinical medicine, I'm very excited and I know many
20
other people who are very excited about continuing to find and evolve ways to be helping people.
21
It's a path of personal discovery which is also benefiting many other people in the process.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
