Traditional Chinese Medicine explores the connection between the body, mind, and spirit and the five natural elements. In this blog series, we’ll explore each of the elements individually and how to best use the specially crafted Fabulous Frannie essential oil blend to help balance it. Last month we discussed Wood, now it’s time to look deeper at Fire.
Summer brings with it freedom and change. This season of transformation is represented by the element of Fire. When this element is in balance, we understand that turbulence is a natural part of life, and we bend and grow with the lessons the universe throws our way. We find joy and motivation in what life brings. If there is an imbalance, these curves in the road bring malice and volatility. These can be demonstrated emotionally through agitation, inability to connect with others, maintaining poor boundaries, and increased sensitivity. Physically, these may manifest in tightness in the chest, mental and emotional fatigue, insomnia, or even a weakened immune system. Fire element is closely associated with the heart and small intestine.
To help you channel your inner-strength and self-love, we’ve formulated Fire Element Blend Roll-On with Lavender, Sweet Orange, Frankincense and Rose essential oils. When used in acupuncture, apply along the Heart-Pericardium acupoints. To help you find balance, you can also use this blend in times of meditation or throughout the day as desired.
