Restoring balance of the five elements and the harmonious flow of qi is at the heart of Chinese medicine.

Liver and gallbladder are the highlighted organ system in springtime. The vital essence of wood element provides renewal, flexibility, optimism, growth, purpose, strength, movement and patience. When out of balance there is frustration, irritability, rigidity, stagnation and distorted Anger. Blaming others, inability to make decisions, plans or organize and not having the consistency in putting forth actions towards the fulfillment of your life’s purpose. When in balance there is a deep sense of trust, decisiveness and responsibility for life. A desire to direct your spirit toward it’s highest potential.
