Spring is in the air! It's hard to believe we are already into March, graced with some days of above freezing weather! This is an interesting convergence between the elements of Spring and the elements of the Chinese New Year.
Are you feeling the burn of the Fire Horse yet? What can strong Fire energy feel like?
Fire energy can easily throw us off balance when it comes in, so if you were already feeling as though you were burning the candle at both ends you might feel entirely burned out or exhausted. You may also find yourself getting sick.
With the emergence of Spring comes strong Wood energy. We all know what happens when we add Wood to Fire. It burns! It thrives! It consumes! This explains the high possibility for burnout at this time of year & feelings of anxiety as that Fire begins to burn away some of the Yin.
What can also occur with the emergence of Spring & strong Wood energy is feelings of frustration because the Wood is still being suppressed by winter. Anger, irritation, impatience & stress are very common at this time of year as we cope with the transition into Wood. The best thing you can do is nurture your Liver!
Breathwork is at the top of the list when setting out to help the Liver, as this can relieve any stagnant Liver Qi. Other supports include avoiding rich foods, doing a Spring clean-eating cleanse, getting Acupuncture & herbal remedies.
If you're feeling like your Liver needs some extra support or if you are feeling emotionally frustrated or angry Acupuncture is fantastic in balancing the Liver element. It can relieve any feelings of stress or anxiety to calm your nervous system.
