1. Educational and Self-Study Nature
Yi Yuan Path (yiyuanpath.org) is an independent educational publication founded and curated by Gustavo Henao. All materials—including theoretical essays, articles, diagrams, food energetic principles, and self-cultivation guides—are published strictly for educational, informational, and personal self-study purposes in the fields of Traditional Chinese Medicine theory (中醫理論), Taoist natural philosophy, and body ecology.
2. No Medical Advice, Clinical Diagnosis, or Treatment
The perspectives, theories, and traditional observational frameworks presented on this platform do not constitute, and must never be interpreted as, Western medical advice, clinical diagnosis, therapy, prescription, or medical treatment.
Gustavo Henao serves exclusively as an educator, independent researcher, and guide in classical Eastern philosophy and body ecology. He is not a licensed Western medical doctor, clinical healthcare provider, or emergency medical practitioner. Interacting with this website, studying its educational materials, or communicating via email does not establish a doctor-patient, therapist-client, or clinical relationship of any kind.
3. Personal Sovereignty & Discernment
Every individual embodies a distinct constitutional baseline (Zheng Qi) and unique internal climate. The lifestyle disciplines, food energetics (食療), acupressure sequences, and natural observation practices shared here represent traditional theoretical concepts intended for sovereign domestic cultivation.
Readers and students are expected to exercise personal discernment and must consult licensed Western healthcare professionals or qualified emergency services regarding any specific medical condition, disease diagnosis, pharmaceutical adjustments, or critical health decisions. Never disregard or delay seeking professional Western medical advice because of information read on this website.
4. Educational Scope & Non-Clinical Practice
Yi Yuan Path does not prescribe pharmaceutical substances, dispense clinical herbal formulas, conduct clinical consultations, or administer medical therapies. Our sole institutional mission is the preservation, translation, and dissemination of classical Traditional Chinese Medicine theory and body ecology for sovereign household self-cultivation.
