EP 71 TCM Part 4Understanding Our Energy Meridians and Wellness
In this episode Amy and Brian continue the discussion of Traditional Chinese Medicine with a deep conversation about the importance of understanding human energy meridians and their role in overall wellness. They discuss how each energy meridian has various associations in our lives and the effects they could have on our health, both physically and emotionally. They talk about the liver meridian’s relation to creativity, the lung and large intestine to value, and the kidney bladder to purpose, among other things. They also highlight the necessity of balance and flow in these meridians to prevent stagnation, which could lead to health issues. They encourage integrating different wellness approaches for a healthier, happier, and more productive life.
