Wind Spirit

It is the year of the Fire element, and in this micro moment, it is also the energy of Wind. Springtime brings change, growth, new life, and abundance.

What does wind have to do with health? Although wind is a subtle energy that cannot be seen directly, its gentle influence can show up for your health right now because it will bring up the stuff that has been latent or accumulating. When we get rashes, when we have allergies, when we have reactions to the environment, it is also the inner environment of our body that is engaging. It is not just something that happens to us.— Wind, in its subtlety, reminds us that there is an inner response. The response from accumulation is something that has happened for days, weeks, years, and lifetimes. It is so subtle that it cannot be noticed until one key— Awareness.

I hope you notice your health and body. Pay attention to what Spring brings. Whenever spring shows up, I’m reminded to cultivate body awareness in the little ways I care for myself. How are you caring for yourself? It is cyclical. Spring will pass. The foundation of care in words, behaviors, and thoughts is your cultivation. May it flow, and may it be generous and tender.

How’s it snowing, everyone? Hahaha Yes, it is 2026 and I’m letting go of the overthinking and going to crack the silly jokes and take the risks to shine and share. Even in the snow we can glow and grow. 🌈

Hope you will join Deer Song Acupuncture for our Cleanse with Friends Event. The intentions are to create community and friendship with food and self. You in? See the details on our website or feel free to DM me.

Balance is the key ingredient to how medicine works. This is a universal medical truth. In Chinese medicine we often refer to balance and harmony. In Western medicine we call it homeostasis and equilibrium.

All truths are accessible if you take a moment to quiet your mind. Sit with these words: balance, harmony, equilibrium, homeostasis. Your body likely softens because it knows this state deep inside.

Come join Deer Song for an acupuncture and qi healing session. Your body knows!

Hey What’s up, everyone! What a fun-filled weekend with community in our Hope Safety Peace Workshop.

What are some insights that I wanted to share this morning?

Health Improvement is Gradual

I frequently remind patients who are trying to work on a health issue to remember themselves 1 month ago, 6 months ago, 1 year ago, 5 years ago. When you take yourself and compare yourself for a larger chunk of time, you can really see the WOW factor of transformation. What Outstanding Work you have contributed to your health is a gradual attainment. Breathe in how nourished your body feels right now to experience this WOW factor unfold today upon your exhale.
—Some given factors then is to: Be patient with yourself, Don’t be afraid that your step today is too small, Be open to restfulness, Let go!

Utilize Health Modalities to Speed You Along Your Health

To me its like the mushroom that transforms 8-bit mini-Mario into Mario-faster, larger, and more resilient. Some of you reading this, I know are already taking the steps towards self-care and alignment with your Highest self. I felt that also in the workshop this weekend when I saw the insights that participants’ shared. When you come for qi healing, when you practice tai chi, when you take herbs, when you receive acupuncture, when you participate in different healing modalities, you are receiving an extra boost to make the work that you are already doing accelerate. Things don’t always have to accelerate, however, why not receive an extra boost here and there and make it easier on yourself. You will thank yourself later.

Sau and I are in the midst of creating changes for Deer Song. Meanwhile, we are available to help you with supporting your health.

Love,

Y Thuan

PS. Smash the Heart button if you recognize what the second photo alludes to. Sometimes growth means looking up, sometimes accepting challenges and moving down is also a gem in disguise.

Hope Safety Peace
A Workshop Fostering the unshakeable, deeper You, Your Higher Self

Are you feeling overwhelmed by what is happening around you and the world? Is there something inside nudging you to seek balance and breathing room from agitation and anxiety?

You have the answer within you. By connecting to your Higher self, your Soul Self, you can access a deep and unshakeable sense of safety, wholeness, inner peace, and personal empowerment.

Join Anya and co-host Deer Song Acupuncture for an afternoon of healing, transmissions and rebalance.

In this interactive class, we will (1) experience meditations to expand your perceptions, open your heart, and connect with your Higher Self/Soul Self; (2) experience an energetic cleansing and release; (3) receive a Reiki healing attunement; (4) receive an energetic alignment with your quantum DNA blueprint; and (5) discuss simple practices that support your body, mind, and spirit in fostering and maintaining a sense of safety and hope.

This class will be held in Pasadena, CA on September 14, 2025, from 12:00pm to 3:30pm PT.

Participants are welcome to stay after the event for community engagement, to view crystal offerings, or to address additional questions with Anya from 3:30pm to 4:00pm PT.

Hi All!

Deer Song has not posted in a minute and we are here with you!

I wrote a poem last September “June Bug Circles the Himalayan Cedar Tree.” 9 months later, I share this poem on zoom with a poetry group, and my friend, June bug shows up right before the reading!

I share this story to share that we are all part of nature and have a sacred connection to all.

You’re welcome to come share your sacredness at Deer Song with us!

Love,

Y Thuan

Lotus Seed Pod 🪷 Tea is a perfect cooling herbal drink to quench your thirst in the heat of 🥵 summer! It supports our digestion system to process better, especially with all the ice cream and iced drinks (Rice, not ICE!) we tend to over-consume during this time. It also calms our hearts to promote better sleep.

Soak, wash, and boil. That’s it! 💪 add jujube dates if you want to make it into a sweet drink 🍎

From Top right (clockwise) - dried lotus seed pod, hyacinth bean, dioscorea root, smilax, medulla junci, Job’s tears, adzuki bean, red cotton flower.

Ping Yin names - lian fang, bai bian dou, bie xie, tu fu ling, deng xin cao, yi yi ren, chi xiao dou, mu mian hua.
