The official commencement of summer came in HOT! 🥵 With heat advisories all week, this season let its arrival be known! 😎 Enjoy these long days while they last, because now that yang has reached its apex, the yin within is gradually starting to grow.

Instead of adding more ice to your drinks, try incorporating cucumbers, mint, watermelon, chrysanthemum and green tea, which all have cooling properties.

Ear seeds are a tool in Chinese Medicine designed to stimulate specific acupressure points on the ear to support various symptoms, ailments, as well as promote well-being and harmony. These tiny seeds—often made from Vaccaria plant seeds or gold, silver, or crystal embellishments—are placed on precise points of the ear to encourage the body’s natural healing process.

🔹 Benefits of Ear Seeds:
✔️ Supports stress and anxiety relief
✔️ Aids in pain management (headaches, back pain, joint discomfort)
✔️ Enhances sleep quality and relaxation
✔️ Helps with digestive concerns and cravings
✔️ Promotes hormonal balance and emotional well-being

Non-invasive, painless, and easy to apply, ear seeds offer a natural way to support your health between acupuncture sessions or as a standalone wellness practice.

🌿 Chai Hu (Bupleurum) – The Liver-Soothing Herb 🌿
Chai Hu (柴胡, Bupleurum) is a key herb in Traditional Chinese Medicine, primarily used to regulate liver Qi, reduce inflammation, and support immune function.
✔ Regulates Liver Qi: Helps relieve symptoms of liver Qi stagnation, such as stress, irritability, chest tightness, and mood swings. Commonly used in formulas like Xiao Yao San for emotional balance.

✔ Reduces Fever & Inflammation: Known for its ability to harmonize the body’s internal temperature, Chai Hu is used in formulas like Xiao Chai Hu Tang to treat alternating fever and chills, often seen in viral infections.

✔ Supports Digestion: Aids in reducing bloating, nausea, and indigestion, especially when stress-related. Helps smooth Qi flow in the stomach and intestines.

✔ Hormonal & Menstrual Health: Used to alleviate PMS symptoms, irregular menstruation, and hormone imbalances by regulating liver Qi and promoting blood circulation.

🔹 How to Use: Chai Hu is often combined with other herbs in TCM formulas rather than taken alone.
Consult a licensed practitioner for proper dosage and use.

Wolf Moon on January 13th at 4:26 pm CST 🌕

The first full moon of the year, known as the Wolf Moon, symbolizes primal instincts, intuition, and community. It invites us to connect deeply with our inner selves and the support systems around us. Paired with the emotional energy of Cancer, this moon encourages introspection, nurturing, and upholding healthy boundaries.

The doorway is our heightened sensitivity (and energy), encouraging us to honor our feelings, recognize where comfort may have led to stagnation, and releasing what no longer resonates.

In Chinese medicine, this aligns with the winter season and the Water element, emphasizing rest and rejuvenation to strengthen the Kidneys—our source of vitality and courage.

🔹 What to Do:
Rest and recharge your Kidney Qi with warm, nourishing foods like black beans, miso soup, or bone broth.

Practice grounding activities like yin yoga or meditation to balance intense emotions.

Reflect on your emotional needs and release old patterns to align with the moon’s cleansing energy.

Our beloved ZZ plant has graced us with a rare bloom—a symbol of resilience, prosperity, and balanced energy.

The ZZ plant’s blooming reminds us of:
🌱 Rooted Strength: Like the plant thriving with deep roots, our well-being flourishes when we ground ourselves in self-care and balance.
🌸 Gentle Growth: The slow, steady growth of a ZZ plant teaches us the value of patience and consistency on our healing journeys.
🌿 Prosperity and Vitality: A blooming ZZ plant is a sign of abundant Qi—energy that flows freely when we nourish body and mind.
Take a moment to pause, breathe, and connect with the beauty around you. Nature always has wisdom to share. 💚
