What your liver, your frustration, and your decisions have in common
Have you ever noticed that when you’re run down, everything gets on your nerves? The line at the store. The email you’ve been avoiding. The decision you keep putting off. That isn’t a flaw in your personality. In Chinese medicine, it’s a sign your Qi is stuck, and the place it gets stuck might surprise you. It’s your liver.
Your liver does more than filter.
Most of us think of the liver as a filter. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, it does so much more. The Foot Jueyin channel, which governs the liver, is the system of smooth flow. Its job is to keep Qi, your vital life force, moving freely through your whole body. It also governs planning and decision making. And its emotions are frustration, irritation, and anger.
Same root. Two faces. What overloads your liver physically and what overloads it emotionally land in the very same place.
When the flow gets stuck.
Too much sugar, alcohol, and processed food. Long days of stress. Decisions piling up. Frustration you swallow instead of feel. All of it asks Foot Jueyin to work overtime, and eventually the flow stalls. I call it a traffic jam.
Reset your physical liver.
When you give your physical liver a chance to rest and recover, Qi begins to move again. To reset your physical liver, we use the Liver Reset from OrthoMolecular, so your liver can clear out what it has been holding.
Now reset your mind.
Here’s what most people miss. Your mental fitness has the very same ability. When you give your mind a chance to rest and recover, the frustration and irritation stored in Foot Jueyin can finally move, too. Mental fitness is the trained ability to notice what is happening inside you, and shift your state on purpose.
Start tonight.
Legs up the wall lets your body and mind reset together. It rests the inner legs where Foot Jueyin travels, and brings your nervous system out of alert. Most of all, it gets you quiet enough to hear what your body has been trying to tell you.
Ready to unstick your Qi?
Call or email us for your OrthoMolecular link, and let’s get your Qi flowing again, body and mind together.
