Your Self and Your Health: Yin Wood (Yi) People





There is a resonating saying: Your health is your wealth.

When our constitution is weak, it can disrupt not only our accomplishments but also our quality of life. In a Chinese Astrology consultation, we carefully assess the Five Elements and their strength and balance to establish and understand an individual’s health and introduce ways to improve their well-being.

This next post in the series focuses on the Yi Self.

You are under the major influence of the Liver meridian.

In Chinese medicine, the Liver stores our blood, regulates our energy levels and supports the nails, eyes, and ligaments.

When the Live Qi (energy) stagnates, it can give the impression of a tight chest, unhappiness, crying, menstruation or other hormonal issues and even depression.

On the other side of the coin, when the Liver Qi is excessive, it can raise feelings of anger, irritability, insomnia or disturbed sleep, dizziness, and vertigo.


Health advice for Yi:

    Avoid fatty food

    Stretching exercises

    Work out regularly, e.g., running or walking

    Consume caffeine and alcohol moderately

    Go to bed before 11 pm
