Returning You to Health, Vitality and a Balanced Body Angelina originally came from China, Guangzhou city. Her brother is a local acupuncturist and herbalist.

It is a very traditional city; people there understand the TCM philosophy and the Five elements theory naturally and apply it in their daily lives. She remembers that her parents always boiled soup with some herbs which helps the body to remain in balance. She was brought up in such an atmosphere so for her, TCM philosophy and acupuncture points are naturally rooted within her body. Therefore her son and her family all benefit from these ancient forms, such as Tui Na, Gua Sha, and Moxa. These experiences really encouraged her to become an acupuncturist to be able to help others. That is why she decided to study and practice the wonderful unique form of medicine. Angelina is not only a registered acupuncturist but also a baby massage instructor and qigong exercise coach. Angelina also has a diploma in paediatric acupuncture. Angelina treats each patient’s problem as a unique case. An individualized treatment plan is designed according to an individual's specific needs and underlying issues. From taking a Chinese medicine view of health, Angelina will incorporate Yang Sheng advice tailored to your health and lifestyle into her sessions which is all about taking care of the body to minimise ill health later down the line.

How Hot Water Helps You P**p (TCM Knows) ☕️

If you struggle with bloating, sluggish digestion, or constipation, Traditional Chinese Medicine has a deceptively simple secret already in your kitchen.

Here’s the TCM logic:

1. Targets the Spleen System: Hot water’s first stop is your stomach and spleen. In TCM, these are your core digestive engines.
2. Stokes Your Digestive Fire: Warmth helps "wake up" and strengthen these organs, allowing them to transform food and fluids efficiently.
3. Keeps Things Moving: A warm, strong spleen ensures nutrients are transported properly and waste is smoothly sent downward to the large intestine for easy elimination.

The Problem with Cold Water: 🧊
Iced drinks shock and weaken this digestive fire(or "Spleen Qi"). This can lead to slower digestion, bloating, and that stuck, clogged feeling.

The Simple Protocol:

· When: Drink a cup of warm-hot water (not boiling, but comfortably hot) first thing in the morning and 30 minutes before meals.
· Why: This primes your digestion without diluting stomach acids during a meal.
· Be Consistent: Try this for just 3-7 days. Many are shocked by the difference.

It’s not a magic pill, but a foundational habit. Your gut might just thank you for the warmth.

Save this tip and give it a try!

In TCM,your Spleen & Stomach are your body’s “slow cooker.” Their job is to warmly simmer and transform food into your vital energy (Qi & Blood). ❤️

But when we consume cold foods & drinks—like iced coffee, smoothies, or salads straight from the fridge—it’s like pouring cold water onto that gentle digestive fire. 🧊➡️🔥

Over time, this:
1️⃣Weakens your Yang (your inner warmth)
2️⃣Stagnates your Qi (causing bloating & fatigue)
3️⃣Creates “Dampness” (that sticky, heavy feeling)

The result? Low energy, poor digestion, and that stubborn sluggishness.

The fix is simple: Honor your inner “slow cooker.” Opt for warm, cooked meals and room-temperature drinks. Especially while taking herbal medicine, this helps your body absorb the healing benefits fully—instead of fighting the cold.

Your digestive system isn’t a blender—it’s a slow cooker. Stoke your fire, don’t put it out. 💫

➡️ Save this to remember why warmth matters!
➡️Share with someone who’s always reaching for the iced drink!
