🌸 Thriving in Menopause: The Chinese Medicine Concept of Second Spring

✨ By Christina Ververka, L.Ac. | Golden Point Acupuncture .lac

There’s a powerful shift happening: more open, honest conversations about every phase of a woman’s life — including perimenopause and menopause. This transformation isn’t just cultural; it’s deeply personal. As a practitioner and woman walking this path alongside so many others, I want to share a timeless perspective from Chinese Medicine that reimagines this transition not as an ending — but a beginning.

In Chinese Medicine, “Second Spring” is the term for what we in the West call perimenopause and menopause. While the “First Spring” (around age 14) begins our reproductive journey, the Second Spring marks a beautiful new phase — when creative energy turns inward, intuition sharpens, and wisdom blossoms.

🔁 The Bao Mai, a vital channel connecting Heart and Uterus, shifts direction — from nurturing others to nurturing self. This inner rebirth is an invitation to live more aligned with our truth, to give from a place of fullness, and to rediscover purpose beyond roles and productivity.

Symptoms like hot flashes, fatigue, sleep issues, or mood swings can be disruptive — but you don’t have to go it alone. Chinese Medicine has supported women through these transitions for centuries.

💆‍♀️ Acupuncture helps:
✔ Regulate hormones
✔ Reduce hot flashes and night sweats
✔ Improve sleep, mood, and focus
✔ Boost vitality and emotional balance

🔥 Moxibustion (warming mugwort therapy) supports:
✔ Kidney and hormonal strength
✔ Joint pain and cold sensitivity relief
✔ Immunity and digestive health

Together, these gentle therapies offer a deeply individualized, holistic way to feel empowered — not diminished — by this phase of life.

🌿 Ready to thrive in your Second Spring? Book an appointment with one of our incredible Japanese-trained Licensed Acupuncturists at Golden Point Acupuncture. We’re here to walk this path with you — honoring your body, your story, and your innate wisdom.

🌞 Summer Glow Up Starts Within 🌞

As summer approaches, we naturally start stepping into a more social, radiant version of ourselves. But the true glow-up? It begins within. 😌✨

Facial acupuncture is more than just skin-deep—it’s a reflection of your internal harmony. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the face is considered a mirror of the Heart, the organ that governs joy, connection, and vitality. And right now, we’re in Heart season (May–June), making it the perfect time to tend the heart through the face. 🫀💆🏻‍♀️

💖 When your Heart is balanced, you radiate. Your eyes shine, your skin glows, and your presence lights up a room.

Let’s align your inner and outer worlds—because real beauty starts with balance.

📅 Book your acupuncture session now and give your summer the vibrant start it deserves.

🧠 May is Mental Health Month 🌿

At Golden Point Acupuncture, we believe that your mental health is just as important as your physical health. In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re highlighting how acupuncture can support emotional well-being and balance from the inside out.

🔬 The Science Behind the Needles:

✨ Recent studies show that acupuncture can help regulate key neurotransmitters like:

Serotonin – often called the “feel-good” chemical, associated with mood, sleep, and emotional balance

Dopamine – connected to motivation, pleasure, and cognitive focus

A 2024 study published in Frontiers in Neuroscience found that electroacupuncture significantly increased serotonin and dopamine levels in animal models of depression—showing promising results for improving mood naturally. 🧪💡

🌱 Make Your Mental Health a Priority

You deserve to feel balanced—mind, body, and spirit. Small daily habits, along with acupuncture, can make a big difference:

✅ Practice 10 minutes of deep breathing or meditation
✅ Get outside for some sun and movement
✅ Create a consistent sleep routine
✅ Limit screen time and information overload
✅ Nourish your body with whole, grounding foods
✅ Journal your thoughts to release stress and gain clarity
✅ Connect with loved ones and lean into your community—you’re not alone

✨ We’re here to support your journey. Whether you’re dealing with stress, anxiety, or burnout, acupuncture can help realign your energy and restore calm.

📍 Book your next session at Golden Point Acupuncture and prioritize your peace. Your mind matters.

🌕✨ Embrace the Change & Find Balance ✨🌕

As we transition into Daylight Saving Time this week, our bodies may feel a bit off balance. The shift in time can disrupt our circadian rhythms and leave us feeling more fatigued or even more stressed. 🌿💤

This week’s Full Blood Moon and Total Lunar Eclipse from last night are powerful cosmic events, representing a time of transformation and letting go. 🌑💫 A perfect opportunity to reflect, release what no longer serves you, and invite in new energy for growth and healing.

✨ Tips to stay balanced during this time:

🌿 Prioritize rest – your body needs time to adjust to the time change.
🌟 Take a moment for reflection – the Full Moon is the perfect time for releasing old energy.
🧘‍♀️ Focus on self-care – acupuncture can help restore balance and help you feel rejuvenated.
At Golden Point Acupuncture, we’re here to help you navigate the physical and energetic shifts with personalized treatments that support your well-being during this cosmic transition.

🌸 Come in and let’s work together to restore your energy!

🌿✨ Preparing for Spring! Embrace the Season of Renewal at Golden Point Acupuncture ✨🌿

Spring is a season of renewal, growth, and fresh beginnings—a potent time for cleansing and starting new projects. 🌱 Just as nature awakens from its winter slumber, it’s the perfect time for our minds, bodies, and spirits to align with the energy of transformation and rebirth.

🌞 As the days grow longer, nature is in perfect balance, just like we should strive to be. Spring marks a perfect balance between day and night, reminding us to find harmony in our lives—between work and rest, action and reflection, giving and receiving. This is a time to ease into new endeavors, not push too hard.

🌿 Spring also brings mental clarity, focus, and natural mood boosts. The increase in sunlight helps our brains produce serotonin and dopamine, improving motivation, mood, and mental sharpness. 🌞 With the fresh air, blooming flowers, and warmer temperatures, it’s easier than ever to find joy and reduce stress. It’s the perfect season to spark creativity and explore new passions! 🎨💡

🌱 Spring is also a time of detoxification and renewal. Just as nature clears away the remnants of winter, our bodies naturally crave lighter, cleansing foods. Eating fresh greens, fruits, and hydrating foods can support digestion, boost energy levels, and help you feel balanced. 🥗🍏

This season offers a chance to embrace a fresh, vibrant version of yourself. Whether through acupuncture, a simple walk outdoors, or setting new intentions, Spring provides the perfect energy to nurture your well-being. 🌸

How will you embrace the renewal of Spring? 🌱✨

🌿✨ Embrace the Winter Season ✨🌿

Winter is a time for slowing down, reflecting, and reconnecting with our roots. While some may find the cold and dark days challenging, it’s important to remember that winter has its own beauty and purpose. Just as nature rests and replenishes beneath the earth’s surface, we too can find stillness and creative potential during these months.

❄️ Winter = Rest & Rejuvenation
This is a time to retreat, to nurture our bodies and minds. Whether you’re cozy by the fire or spending more time in quiet reflection, winter invites us to restore our energy. The kidneys, which govern our vitality in Traditional Chinese Medicine, need care and rest during this time.

🌑 The Power of Creativity
Winter is also the season of creativity. Just like a plant’s roots quietly nourish the next season’s growth, our creative potential lies in the quiet moments. You don’t have to create “art”—it’s about tapping into your own inner expression, whether through journaling, cooking, or simply allowing yourself to be.

💧 Honor Your Body’s Rhythm
Take time to rest, rejuvenate, and let go of any extra obligations. Consider incorporating soothing baths or spending time by the water to nurture your kidneys and adrenal system. Lower expectations, give yourself permission to slow down, and cherish this sacred time.

This winter, let’s embrace the slower pace, honor our ancestors, and reconnect with the wisdom of the season.

🌟 Happy Winter from Golden Point Acupuncture! 🌟

🕯️ Visit us this winter to support your health and well-being through acupuncture and holistic care.
