About the event
In the Chinese Calendar the first day of Summer is the 6th of May. Summer is a time when ‘Yang’ energy reaches its peak and harnessing its energy can provide a foundation for good health all year round. The Chinese say in the Summer you can cultivate the vital Yang Qi. The element of Summer is fire and the organ is the heart. Learn how you can open your heart to life and the joy of this season.
This talk will take a look at the Chinese understanding of Summer and how its dynamic is mirrored in our bodies. The talk will explain how to synchronize the body with this Yang energy. It will cover both theory and practical tips for feeling your best during the season. These will include Chinese dietary therapy, herbs, acupressure and qi gong. There will also be some Summer based drinks and food on offer.
