In Classical Chinese Medicine, there’s a point so powerful it’s often called the “Great Surge” or "Happy Calm". Meet Liver 3 (Taichong).

Located on the top of the foot, between the first and second toes, Liver 3 is known for its ability to keep Qi flowing smoothly, especially when life (or emotions) feel stuck.

When the Liver system is out of balance, you might notice:
– Irritability or mood swings
– Tension in the body (hello, tight shoulders + jaw)
– Headaches or eye strain
– Feeling “pent up” or easily frustrated

Stimulating Liver 3 can help:
✨ Move stagnant Qi
✨ Support emotional regulation
✨ Ease tension + pain
✨ Reconnect you to a sense of flow and ease

It’s a go-to point during seasonal transitions (especially spring) when the energy of growth can either feel expansive or overwhelming.

Try this:
Take a few slow breaths and apply gentle pressure to Liver 3 on each foot for 1–2 minutes. Notice what begins to shift.

Sometimes the smallest points create the biggest movement. 🌱

Let's talk about anger.

In Classical Chinese medicine, the emotion of anger isn’t seen as “bad". It’s actually considered a sign of movement and life force.

The Liver system (associated with spring and the Wood element) is responsible for keeping Qi flowing smoothly throughout the body. When that flow gets stuck, frustration and irritability can build. But when it’s moving well, that same energy becomes creativity, vision, and the courage to make change.

So instead of suppressing anger, the goal is to listen to it as information:
✨ What feels stuck?
✨ What wants to grow?
✨ Where do you need to take action?

In this lens, anger isn’t something to eliminate. It’s something to refine and redirect into aligned movement.

Spring isn’t just a season, it’s a shift in energy. 🌱

In Chinese medicine, this time of year is all about growth, movement, and clearing out what’s been stuck. As nature begins to bloom, your body is asking for the same: more flow, more expression, more space to expand.

If you’ve been feeling a little restless, irritable, or ready for change, that’s not random. That’s spring energy moving through you.

Support it with gentle movement, fresh foods, time outside, and honest expression. This is your season to stretch, grow, and begin again.

What is trying to bloom in your life right now?✨

Twelve years of holding space, building relationships, and witnessing transformation throughout thousands of sessions. Wow! 🤩 What began as a small vision has grown into a vibrant, heart-centered community rooted in healing and connection. I've come to learn that every treatment, every conversation, and every moment shared has been a reminder that true wellness is never just about the individual; it’s about the collective. It’s about showing up first for yourself so you can then show up for one another. It's an honor to create trust and cultivate a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered in your health journeys.

I love to take these milestones as a moment of reflection of the many paths that have crossed within my practice walls. I’m endlessly grateful for your trust and commitment to making this medicine a priority. Here’s to many more years of nurturing our health! 🙏❤️✨

Yin, Yang, Yoga, & You: Spring at today! Another wonderful workshop in the books! We honored and celebrated everything Spring represents. We dove into the energetic qualities of Spring from a Chinese medicine perspective and took time to journal personal reflections. The remainder of the workshop focused on implementing our reflections and intentions for the season into a yoga practice. Thank you to everyone who showed up and held such a sweet space for one another. 🌱✨ It's an honor to share what I love. Looking forward to our Summer workshop! ☀️
