Living close to nature, ancient cultures had a very deep and profound understanding of the laws governing nature. Their lives depended on knowing the cycles or laws of nature. These laws are the re-occurring patterns within nature. In ancient China it was called the "Tao" or "The Way of Nature." (ie.Spring follows Winter, night follows day. . ) If they knew that winter was approaching, ancients would need to move and concern themselves with finding and storing food for the season. Now if it's cold, we flip a switch and open the fridge. Although more convenient, we've lost sync, not with our I phones, but with the laws of nature within us. We are living beings. The same forces of nature that govern the working of the universe govern us. We are natural. We are not man made. The moon influences your mood and monthly cycles (yes, guys too) more than you realize. What if you remembered that? What if you could harness the power of nature and use it to improve your lifespan? We've become so busy at manipulating nature and creating our own elements and artificially propping ourselves up for convenience that we've forgotten the obvious. And that's what Chinese medicine does. It puts you back in touch with the power of nature within you so you can work WITH the forces of nature, not against them. Your body is not broken. It's tired and most likely hungry. It's lost touch with its source. Time in nature can heal this. So can a visit to your acupuncturist! |
