Winter has arrived as the cold air brings on a stillness that can be felt even amongst the bustling of a city. It is a time when many animals go into hibernation, where our energies become focused more internally, a natural time for restorative healing. Through the lens of Chinese Medicine we can see Winter as the Element of Water. The Water Element is represented in the body by the Kidneys, Urinary Bladder and the Adrenal Glands. Regulating and restoring our body's ability to manage stress, our blood pressure, nutrients absorbed and the balance of fluids are some important functions of these organs.
Our Kidneys hold our will power to help us with achievements in life. This is a great time to access this essence that lies deep within us to help with life goals and creative projects we may have, meditation is an important practice of the season. With balancing our Water Element, we are able to calm the body's reaction to stress, regulate our nervous system, and help to strengthen our memory. Water also helps to calm emotions that rise up like the heat from a flame. Acupuncture, nutritional support and lifestyle tips found within Chinese Medicine are wonderful assistants in helping to heal ailments associated with the Water Element. Embrace the energies of the season and come in to Golden Leaf Natural Health for a seasonal balancing treatment!
