Celebrating the Lunar New Year! 🔥🐎
This Tuesday, February 17th, marks the official beginning of the Fire Horse Year, one of the most energetic cycles in Chinese medicine.
An article from River City Wellness shares that the Year of the Fire Horse brings strong Heart centered energy in Chinese medicine, highlighting both renewed vitality and the importance of protecting emotional balance, circulation, rest, and nervous system health during this dynamic cycle.
Fire brings enthusiasm, drive, and opportunity, but it also asks us to care for the Heart, sleep, emotions, and circulation. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, this year is a reminder that self care is not optional. It is essential.
🌱 Support Your Mind and Body in 2026:
• Start mornings with deep breathing or gentle movement to settle the Heart
• Choose cooling, nourishing foods like cucumber, spinach, barley, lotus root, and herbal teas
• Moderate stimulants such as caffeine, alcohol, and spicy foods to prevent excess fire
• Wind down evenings with screen free time, calming teas, acupressure, or meditation
Practices like Qigong and Tai Chi help circulate energy smoothly while keeping Fire balanced, supporting vitality without exhaustion.
The Fire Horse favors growth, learning, and movement, but not constant speed.
True wellness comes from rhythm, intention, and caring for the whole self.
May 2026 bring you joyful energy, steady health, and aligned living. ✨
