Winter Qi Chats | Week 12
What can your Kidney Qi do for you?
This week we go over a general understanding of the Seasonal Qi system and learn how you can tonify the Qi daily.
Seasonal Qi + Me
In today’s Qi Chat with Angi discusses how quarterly seasonal shifts impact us both externally and internally. Our actions today shape our future, and adapting to seasonal changes through movement and mindset is key during transitions between decades.
Identifying where you are in your internal season can enhance aging gracefully, as your approach to training, movement, diet, and mindset will evolve. It's inevitable that we can't remain in our 30s indefinitely, whether mentally, physically, or biologically, despite our efforts.
Embrace aging and the wisdom that comes with it by learning to appreciate slowing down and gaining valuable insights over time.
Kidneys Treatments
In Chinese Medicine, the Kidneys store our Qi reserves. Ideally, we aim not to deplete these reserves and preserve our Qi for the long term. However, we can harness the power of our Kidneys to navigate challenging times, no matter the stage of life or season.
Recognize times of stress, exhaustion, or intense emotions as signals to nurture your Kidney Qi. It's time to tap into this vital energy source and replenish it.
