There is a shift in the air this week. Everything feels a little stirred up and unsettled. More energy is coming forward as we wake up from winter. Sometimes this is a gentle process but other times it can leave you feeling irritable, restless and with more pain. Think of those spring plants pushing up and through the cold earth, they may look pretty and delicate but it takes a lot of work to rise up to meet the spring sun. Growth is not always easy! This is the energy of the liver. It is rebirth, new growth, an upward and outward moving energy, yang within yin as we move fully into the months of spring.

Each season in Chinese medicine correlates to a specific organ pair. The organs most energized in winter are the kidneys and bladder. Kidney and bladder energetic systems influence numerous areas of the body.
