Yang-Sheng (Nurturing Life) is an E-magazine and online network run by the non-profit World Institute for Self Healing (WISH), lead by Dr. Kevin Chen in the University of Maryland School of Medicine.  Our long-term goal is to make Yang Sheng — the systematic health management and self care, based on traditional Chinese medicine practice and scientific research evidence — the part of regular healthcare and personal growth, by empowering the consumers, and those who are willing to take care of themselves, and to make “Health Management” a new profession, and a health discipline, which will be complementary to the current medicine, but beyond disease models!

Currently we are looking for some interns or part-time helpers in the following areas.  This will be excellent opportunities for students or trainees of Journalism, business and public health to practice what they learned in school, and to learn something new and practical when serving the health and well-being community.  We are also welcoming the retired professionals to join us to contribute their expertise to the things they love…..  The compensation is small but the experience will definitely help landing a future job. (Two of our previous interns have landed full-time jobs when working with us).  Some of the positions have the potential to grow into a real job in the near future once we get capital investment.internship

These positions can be combined if someone wants to do more than one jobs.  Please send an email with resume and cover letter to Dr. Kevin Chen at Qigong4us at hotmail dot com, or editor@Yang-Sheng.com if you are interested in doing any of the jobs.  Prior experience will help, but not a must.  We are looking for a few motivated individuals who are willing to learn, to work, and to collaborate with others, and who intend to make a difference in career through their own hard-work. Thank you very much for your interests and for passing the information around.

Best wishes to your life and career!
