Five Element Theory and Navigating Grief

According to Chinese Philosophy, the Five Element theory describes wood, fire, earth, metal, and water as the basic elements of the material world. These 5 elements are seen in everything - from animals, people, nature, seasons, etc.  This theory is used in Astrology, Feng Shui and Qigong, to name a few.    Jennifer and Rose chat about the Five Element theory and focus specifically on the Metal element - which is the element of Autumn  and is associated with the emotion of grief and how this emotion can become stuck within the body and create stagnancy within our energy.   Listen to personal stories of how unprocessed grief can manifest as physical symptoms.  To learn more about Rose & Jennifer you can visit their websites:Jennifer Eash YogaRose WippichChat Off The Mat WebsiteRose Wippich is an Energy Alchemist, Reiki Master Teacher, qigong and yoga instructor, and author of Empress Rising.
