A teacher once said to me "Lifestyle is medicine and medicine is lifestyle" and its true.
Our body and health are reflections of our lifestyle. Listening to one's body is essential. We have to take into consideration all the elements that impact us daily. We must know our own body's needs in order to get what we want. We are all unique individuals and our bodies need individual care - this is why diets work for some and not for others!
Chinese medicine is an ancient medical system based on the Daoist view of an interdependent universe. Through thousands of years of observation and practice, the Chinese have developed a unique method of understanding the structure of the internal organs and the body's physiological processes. Today, that medicine is called Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).
Chinese medicine is designed to promote and maintain health through diet and exercise. Chinese medicine practitioners diagnose and treat all types of illness and disease. If illness occurs, it is treated with acupuncture, herbs, and Qigong. This form of medicine has long been revered for being non-invasive and efficacious.
We live in a world of constant stress. Demanding workday, busy schedules, not enough time to eat properly, exercise regularly and just relax. We are constantly bombarded by environmental hazards. Even our homes are not safe from pollutants. No wonder our health is at risk.
