The Essentials of TCM 5 Element Theory Part 1:  Organs, Sounds and Emotions

DVDs

The Five Elements of Traditional Chinese Medicine are a comprehensive template that organizes all natural phenomena into five master groups or patterns in nature. Each of the five Elements,—Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water—include categories such as a season, a direction, a stage of growth and development, internal organs, emotions, an animal, a taste, a color, a sound and more. The Five Elements Theory reflect a deep understanding of natural law, which is "nature naturally seeks balance."
