Digestion Baby
The Stomach and Spleen channel is about receiving nourishment on all levels. It is also said that our ideas and intentions (called Yi) are stored in the yin organ of the Spleen.
For most of us it seems to be that centre of ourselves that always needs all the love and nourishment.
You can imagine these energetics as a fertile soil to which you take care, tend too, nurture to ultimately set the foundations to build a bountiful harvest 🌱Strong healthy soil = deep roots.
Over worried? Over analyzing? These can be patterns of lack of Spleen and Stomach Qi. And to be honest we all do it! Essentially, these ruminating thoughts are just spinning thoughts without action!
So a few tips from me to you:
- Bring action to your intentions.
- Don’t bite of more than you can chew. Small tasks and bask in the accomplishments
- Eat warm nourishing earthy foods. Think of root vegetables and warm soups, stews and a little bit of el natural sweet (like dates or figs)
- Avoid cold foods
- Take such good care of you, small rituals make a huge difference
- Screen off and study breaks more often.
- Be mindful of everything you’re digesting from your experiences to your plate.
- Take time to assimilate, to digest.
- Acupuncture, massage, yin yoga (something that feels like it is creating a warm cosy nest for you)
BIG love, B.
