“A wise person should have money in their head, but not in their heart.”  Jonathan Smith

A little about Marilyn Allen, MA

Marilyn Allen has worked in Complementary Healthcare Malpractice Insurance industry as well as teaching at Traditional Medicine schools for over 40 years. She has been the United States representative to the World Health Organization WHO since 2005.

This journey has helped to establish a set of diagnostic codes for Traditional Medicine. These codes were released in February 2022. At the beginning of this process, WHO said that Traditional Medicine would be the first to have a set of Diagnostic codes and that Acupuncture was opening the door for Complementary medicine.

This is happening now and Ayurveda is the next discipline of medicine to establish a set of diagnostic codes to be included in the International Family of Classifications. She also serves as the Editor of “Acupuncture Today” and teaches Practice Management classes in numerous Acupuncture schools across the US.

Program Schedule

Each online monthly meeting will be about 1 hour long on a Monday and participants will walk away with the knowledge needed to push through to the next step in building your Ayurvedic Practice. Participants will also have 24/7 access to the CAAM SLACK community where they can work through each step of the program, ask each other questions, workshop ideas, and get guidance from mentors.
