When your mind is overwhelmed with stress, frustration, worry or anxiety - your Qi/energy levels follow suit, becoming scattered, stuck or depleted.

❤️ Anxiety restricts your Heart Qi, creating physical tension
😠Anger and frustration cause your Liver Qi to rise or stagnate.
🤔 Constant worry and overthinking drain your Spleen Qi.
😔 Deep worry and grief constrict your Lung Qi.

Acupuncture helps ease the pressure on the nervous system and is a gentle yet powerful support for emotional well - being. If you are feeling tense, restless or drained - acupuncture may be the reset your body needs ✨

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the earth element governs the Spleen and Stomach organs. The Spleen is the organ most closely associated with the emotion of worry and overthinking.

While it's normal to experience these emotions occasionally, excessive worry can disrupt the natural flow of energy within the body - particularly affecting the Spleen & Stomach then as they are more vulnerable during this time of year.

When the Spleen is out of balance, it can lead to excessive rumination, obsessive thoughts and a constant state of mental activity.

When the Spleen is overburdened by worry, it can lead to :
✨ Digestive Issues: bloating, IiBS symptoms.
✨ Mental Fog : difficulty concentrating and focusing
✨ Fatigue: Feeling of heaviness in the limbs

Understanding the connection between your emotions, the Earth element (that your Spleen needs extra support during this season) and your body can help you take proactive steps to restore harmony within your body and nurture your well-being.

By incorporating mindfulness practices, adjusting your diet - Spleen loves yellow/orange foods and adopting some lifestyle changes that align with the season you can reduce worry's impact on your body. In our next post we'll look at different steps of actions to take 😉

Is it still summer at the moment 🤔 is there a touch of Autumn air? Are we at the cusp of a change of season ....

The long days of summer are winding down and we find ourselves transitioning into the season of the Earth Element - the Spleen and Stomach Meridian systems belong to the Earth Element - during this time of the year we focus on the digestive system, nourishment and stability.

The Earth element also relates to issues of dampness (humidity, heaviness, phlegm) -the climate of late summer. Dampness can show up in the body in many ways : physical fatigue, mental fatigue, worry, digestive problems, muscle weakness.

When there are changes in seasons/nature, it's important that we adjust to the natural rhythms and flow of the earth.

As summer draws to a close, it's time to phase out your consumption of cold raw foods, cold smoothies, ice water and salads.
Warm cooked meals with spices like ginger, fennel and cardamom help to warm things up, resolve dampness and strengthen the Spleen Qi.

The colour of the Earth element is yellow 💛
Eating foods that and yellow and orange are especially supportive for Spleen health, butternut squash, sweet potato, carrots etc
Acupuncture is another way that helps our body and mind move effortlessly with seasonal changes too 😊

Some signs of a stressed or dysregulated nervous system - there's LOTS but they include:

✨ Trouble Sleeping
✨Jaw Clenching
✨ Digestive Issues
✨ Muscle Tension
✨ Irritability
✨ Difficulty Concentrating/decision-making.

Even the small stuff can feel overwhelming and too much when the body is in constant fight or flight mode.

Acupuncture is one of the most effective ways to bring balance to body & mind by regulating the nervous system and promoting relaxation.
