Yin & Yang ☯️
Traditionally, Yin is associated with qualities such as darkness, coolness, inwardness, receptivity, substance, rest and the feminine principle, while Yang is associated with light, warmth, outward movement, activity, function and the masculine principle. These associations are not statements about gender, nor do they suggest that one quality is preferable to another. They describe relative movements found throughout nature and within ourselves.
In Chinese Medicine, every imbalance relates back to this fundamental principle. Where has life fallen out of harmony with these two energies?
• Where in my life do I naturally express more Yang
qualities?
• Where do I notice movement, action, productivity or
outward focus?
• Where do I experience Yin?
• Where do I feel spaciousness, receptivity, stillness or
deep rest?
• Which quality feels easier for me to embrace?
• Which quality do I resist and where do I feel it in my
body?
The answer is always yinside 😉
