In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Liver isn’t just a physical organ.

It’s the system responsible for the smooth flow of Qi through the body.

And when that flow is disrupted… we feel it.

Frustration. Irritability. Restlessness.
That sense of being stuck or unable to move forward.

Spring carries an upward, expansive energy.

A natural pull to grow, begin again, create momentum.

But when the body doesn’t have the space for that movement…

that energy can turn into tension instead.

This is where understanding the body through a TCM lens changes how we teach yin as yoga teachers.

Not just in theory but in how we guide movement, stillness, and energy in practice.

It’s the difference between:
teaching shapes

and supporting flow.

This is something I’m exploring more deeply inside a training I’m currently creating for yoga teachers.

If you’ve ever felt like there’s a deeper layer to this practice…

Zhan Zhuang or standing like a tree is a foundational qi gong practice.

This is really not as passive as it looks. Qi is still flowing, and when we stand like this we are actively building Jing, our deepest energy.

Internal strength isn’t muscular, it s a strength that that body knows how to hold itself.

There are lots of different Zhan Zhuang postures in Qi Gong but this is my favourite.

Spring.

We are well and truly into this new season.
In traditional Chinese Medicine Spring is a really important season and focuses on the energy of the Liver and Gallbladder.
It also has a lot of emotions relating to this time of year and these organs such as anger, frustration, irritability.

I will talk about this in future posts and how we can support ourselves.

Want weekly emails about Chinese Medicine and how you can support yourself with each season. Sign up to my mailing list.

You can also do it with your loose fist too. Would you try it?
