Feeling overwhelmed? Bring yourself back into harmony with the Chinese art of self-healing, Yang Sheng, says Katie Brindle
Think back to the last time you had a strong emotion such as joy or sadness. Where did you feel it in your body? People often describe bad shock as ‘a punch to the gut’ or grief as ‘weight on the chest’. Conversely, the state of your body affects your emotions; when you’re ill, it’s hard to feel positive.
Chinese medicine has always rooted in the emotional state firmly in the body. Every emotion we experience is looked after by a specific organ. So depression, for example, is described as an imbalance of the organs, almost always involving the liver. Having a specific physical location for emotions means you have a place where you can start healing yourself, processing emotions and transforming how you feel.
