This is an idea stated a couple times in the classical texts of Chinese medicine. In those works though there isn't much in the expression of how to do this. I was listening to someone read the book Art of Peace by Morihei Ueshiba.

This again is another aspect where Chinese Medicine shines bright. Having specific motions associated with specific emotional states allow them to be recognized and balanced.

Understanding their movements might bring to light a sense of self that helps you define more clearly what emotions you may be experiencing and how to help balance them for yourself.  2020-08-1135 minJustShiatsu PodcastJustShiatsu PodcastTransformationIn this episode I discuss ideas on transformation of Essence, Qi, and Form.

This chapter explores how yin and yang are always present in whatever perspective we take.

It is always the perspective we take that helps define what is happening, but we must not forget how it also fits within the greater whole.  2020-07-2128 minJustShiatsu PodcastJustShiatsu PodcastYang and ChiIn this episode I talk about the important aspects of yang and why it takes a leading role in health and treatment.

Lastly, I explore what this means to how we can use touch to influence a healthy state in another person. 2020-07-1433 minJustShiatsu PodcastJustShiatsu PodcastThe Four Seasonal MovementsIn This episode, we explore chapter 2 of the Neijing Suwen.
