Insights

Chinese medicine has a sophisticated understanding of how the body works physically, emotionally, spiritually and energetically. It holds that illness only occurs when you get out of balance. Treat those energetic imbalances early enough and you can limit the chance of physical symptoms. All manner of low level symptoms can signal a disruption of energy flow. For example, are you sleeping well? If you are out of balance, you’ll likely be experiencing one or more of the issues below. You may be a step further than this, and already be suffering from illness. I’m in no way saying that yang sheng can cure disease. But, alongside Western medicine, and no matter your symptoms, there are always simple steps you can take to improve your general balance and support yourself in the meantime.

Meridians

Consider your organs as little mini kingdoms. They all have territories, rivers of Qi that interact and weave all over the body like a canal system.

6 Excess Factors

In Chinese medicine we categorise these factors into wind, cold, heat, dryness, dampness & summer heat. We call them the 6 excess factors.

Emotions

Chinese medicine has always understood that what we feel has a huge impact on our bodies & organs causing health problems.

The 5 Elements

Five Elements is a fundamental theory of Chinese medicine. It holds that everything in the universe can be categorised into one of five groups.

Sleep

Just one night of Insomnia can affect your memory, emotional state, hormones and appetite. Learn to sleep better with yang sheng.

Menopause

The way Chinese medicine talks about menopause may come as a huge relief to you. Here I look at a few common symptoms.

Anxiety

Yang sheng considers your emotional state as rooted in your body rather than your mind.

Stress

Stress is a natural response – it’s all about how you deal with it.

Low Mood

All emotions are healthy, it’s all about balancing them. Learn how.

Digestion

Your gut and brain are intimately connected - it’s about so much more than digesting food.

Low Energy

Constantly exhausted and in need of an energy boost? It’s all about rebalancing.

Low Immunity

If you are fed up of always feeling under par, yang sheng may have the answer.

Poor Skin

No matter your skin issue, the problem lies deeper than you think.
