In Traditional East Asian Medicine, people are understood in relationship to nature and the seasons. This philosophy came from a time when humans were more aligned with the natural world.
In modern life, we can sometimes find ourselves moving out of sync with these natural rhythms.
Living in accordance with each season may support our bodies to adjust to seasonal changes.
In Traditional East Asian Medicine, Five Phase (or Five Element) theory describes relationships between human beings —such as the organs, emotions, sounds and tastes—and the natural world.
From this perspective, the Liver system is often associated with the qualities of spring, including wind.
Incorporating seasonal diet and lifestyle approaches may be one way to support health and overall wellbeing throughout the year.
Diet and lifestyle advice can be included in a Traditional Japanese Medicine or Coaching session.
