Digestive Health According to Chinese Medicine

Lǐ Dōng Yuán, a legendary 13th-century physician and scholar, developed his own school of thought called “Invigorating the Earth”. Lǐ Dōng Yuán believed that a healthy digestive system is fundamental to a person's well-being, and that dysfunction in the digestive organs could lead to a wide range of health problems.

Since his prominent findings almost 1000 years ago, Chinese Medicine has continued to develop and provide care based on this theory; placing high value and importance on harmonizing and strengthening digestion. Many western diets, fads, and the challenges of living in a fast-paced society lead to imbalances in these organs. Not only does this show up as tummy troubles, but menstrual challenges, infertility, anxiety, depression, fatigue, brain fog, allergies, weight challenges, pain, etc. Virtually ever condition can be linked back to our digestion.

The relationship we have with nourishing ourselves ripples into every part of our life. Chinese medicine teaches us that it's so much more than what we eat, its how we eat and digest the world we are experiencing.

In this interactive workshop, we will deep-dive into Chinese medical theory related to digestion, explore nutritional therapies, and easy practices and recipes that can make a big difference in our health and vitality.

Additionally, ear seeds and a guided meditation connected to digestion will be provided to prolong the effects of our time together.

Whether you are struggling with a diagnosed condition, or would like to lean into the preventative sides of this medicine, this workshop will be beneficial and supportive for all bodies.

Please reach out for any questions or if there is something specific you would like to learn. We look forward to sharing this space together :)
