why joyful herbs?
Although modern life has made our living conditions much more comfortable, our stress level has increased. This is more than just our work-life balance, but stress inside our bodies from our eating habits and environmental stressors.
In eastern medicine, your body’s well-being is dependent on balance between the Yin (“water”) and Yang (“fire”). Stress causes our bodies to build “fire. “Fire” is also exacerbated by poor modern diets (e.g. fast food, soft drinks. Once this heat is generated, a signal is sent to various parts of the body (e.g. stomach, lung, liver, gall bladder, and large intestine). This can cause a person to suffer from many disorders such as:
-
Anxiety
-
Panic attacks
-
Acne
-
Chronic inflammation
-
Insomnia
-
Constipation
-
Headaches
-
Tinnitus
-
Shoulder pain
To help remedy these conditions, the principle of “Cooling the Fire and nurturing Yin (“water”) is used to restore the body back to balance.
