Feng Shui teaches us that the flow of energy in a space mirrors the flow within us.

In TCM, each organ holds an energy beyond its physical role:
💧 Kidneys — resilience, fear, deep reserves
❤️ Heart — joy, connection, clarity
🌿 Liver — flexibility, vision, decision-making

Over the last few years, we’ve been living in Kidney energy—survival mode.

Now, the tide is shifting. Heart and Liver energy are rising, calling us toward reconnection, renewal, and space for what matters.

Your home and your body are in constant conversation with the wider world.

This season, ask:
✨ Does my environment support the life I want to live?
✨ Does my body feel at home in this moment?

Sometimes, the biggest shifts start with a cleared corner, a deep breath, and the courage to make space.

Perimenopause can feel like a storm — unpredictable hormones, changes in mood, sleep, and energy that ripple through every part of life.

Chinese Medicine sees this differently. It’s not an illness to be “managed,” but a transition to be understood. The Bao Mai — the channel connecting the heart and uterus — flows downward in puberty, opening menstruation.

In perimenopause, this flow reverses, echoing what science now calls “reverse puberty.” No wonder it feels intense.

✨ This is where acupuncture can help:
🌿 Reduce hot flushes and night sweats
🌿 Improve sleep and restore energy
🌿 Ease anxiety and mood swings
🌿 Support natural hormone balance
🌿 Calm the nervous system

Perimenopause isn’t an ending. It’s an invitation to step into wisdom and clarity with the right support.

👉 Book your acupuncture session at SoulQi and create the space your body and mind are asking for.

At puberty, the Bao Mai — the channel linking the heart and uterus — begins to flow downward, opening menstruation.
During perimenopause, this flow reverses. Signals move back up, creating the emotional and physical changes many women experience.
Science now confirms this too, describing the irregular “bottom-up” communication between the ovaries and brain during this season.

✨ Perimenopause is not just about hormones. It’s about the whole body-heart connection.

Spring is stirring. 🌱
The earth is shifting, the days are lengthening, and our bodies are ready to rise with new energy.

September is your gentle reminder to clear out the heaviness of winter and welcome the season of renewal.

At SoulQi, we see this transition as more than a change in weather. It’s a chance to align your rhythm with nature — to eat lighter, breathe deeper, and embrace fresh beginnings.

✨ September: rise, renew, bloom.

Acupuncture is not “just energy flow.”
It’s measurable. It’s medicine.

For centuries, acupuncture has described real patterns in the body.
Today, neuroscience explains what TCM always observed: nerve activation, nervous system balance, pain regulation, hormone + immune support.

It’s time we stopped dismissing it and started recognising it.

Who else loves Thai Pumpkin Soup?

Warm up with this nourishing Thai Pumpkin Soup, a tradition-meets-modern fusion. A rich, velvety blend of pumpkin or puree simmered with coconut milk and infused with ginger, turmeric, and spices, blended until silky smooth and garnished with fresh cilantro and pumpkin seeds for a crunchy finish.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), pumpkin is cherished for its neutral-warming, sweet nature. Tonifying Qi, enhancing digestion, supporting the lungs, spleen, and stomach, while also helping detoxify the body and clear dampness. When paired with pumpkin seeds, the soup gains extra TCM points for supporting intestinal health and gently balancing the body.

And those warming spices—turmeric and ginger—are time-tested allies, offering anti-inflammatory, immune-boosting, and digestive goodness.

This bowl isn’t just comforting, it’s deeply nourishing, rooted in tradition and designed to help you feel your best as the seasons shift.

Ingredients:
Pumpkin
Onion, garlic, fresh ginger, red curry paste or turmeric & chilli for warmth
Coconut milk for creaminess
Vegetable or chicken stock

Optional: lemongrass, lime juice, cilantro, pumpkin seeds, shredded carrots, or roasted peanuts for garnish

A Thai-style version blends pumpkin with coconut, red curry paste (or turmeric + ginger), onion, garlic, stock, and spices, then simmers until soft and is blended smooth.
Finish with garnishes like cilantro, a swirl of coconut milk, toasted pumpkin seeds, or peanuts.

The wattle’s out 🌼 That bold yellow bloom isn’t just beautiful — it’s a sign.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, it marks the stirrings of spring.
Liver energy starts to rise. The body begins to shift.
You might feel it as restlessness, tight muscles, or the sudden urge to declutter.

Now’s the time to support your system.
Eat warm, stretch gently, and book in for a seasonal acupuncture tune-up.

Your body already knows. Are you listening?
