Spring colour at last!
The Season of reaping what we have sown...Wood’s natural energetic rhythm of flourishing, with
renewed vigour and growth, better and brighter than ever before, shining forth, flowing freely with
smooth forward upright Qi (chi), blossoming, feeling ‘ok’ about being a tall poppy, coming from a place
of firm self respected roots, well nourished over time, who is strong enough to stand one’s ground in
the seasonal changes of wind no matter what is thrown your way with forthright direction for the more
yang seasons of Spring and Summer.
Has your time and energy over these last Winter months allowed you to contemplate what is important
to your well being, resolved any issues to now allow clear direction with some new movement...so you
can dance like a spring lamb?
Have you been drinking enough Water to nourish your Wood element? Is your blood rich with colour
and freshness from Earth, Metal and Water to allow nourishment and flexibility of ligaments, tendons
and sinews? Do you feel you have enough substance – blood volume and quality, rich in iron, Proteins,
ions - electrolytes and 91.5% of Water in your plasma to nourish the sense organ of Wood manifesting
in your eyes?
Is your Qi and blood flowing smoothly for your emotional state, digestion, the secretion of bile, your
spirit grounded and therefore rooted in your blood at night for resting, normal activity with supple free
movement of sinews, free flow of menstruation, eyes and nails?
Or are you too Woody with unresolved resentment, bitterness, jealousy, frustration, feeling galled and
angry about anything or anyone causing obstacles in your way?
If so your Wood element – Liver and Gall Bladder is effected which may upset your Digestive system,
you may have issues in your tissues with one sided musculoskeletal discomfort or bilateral cramps,
tightness, stiffness, rigidness in your limbs, neck, back or shoulders, sore hips, high blood pressure,
temporal and or occipital headaches, itchy skin disorders, sleep issues, menstrual problems, withered
nails, high pitched tinnitus, numbness, tingling,, floaters (grey spots effecting vision) and angry
outbursts.
All these pathologies may stem from patterns of Liver blood deficiency causing poor flow, nourishment
and therefore stagnation and pain with possible complications of energy rising and flaring upward.... or
from an excess of Liver Qi stagnation and Blood stasis causing poor flow toxicity and Liver Qi to rise
up.....hence being on the receiving or giving end of a ‘Livery’ person.

If any of the above is sounding familiar then this a good time for a check up at my clinic and at your GP to
get a complete blood count to check if your Blood has the right amount of goodies for nourishment and
smooth flow and attend to your unresolved emotions of unhappiness causing stress, discomfort and pain.
On the up side happy Springing and wishing you many kindnesses!
