A less quick note on some content we discussed the other day:
During a recent qigong class we were discussing the TCM clock associated with the organ systems of the body. We've talked a lot about the cycle of the five elements in qigong, but each of these elements also maps onto each day, creating a circadian rhythm.
This is very handy for understanding any symptoms you may have that repeat at the same time each day. (Why do I always get sleepy at 2pm? Why do I always wake up at 3 in the morning?) Lily Choi, a TCM practitioner in New York state, has a wonderful article about the organ clock, including tips and tricks for strategically supporting each organ at its ideal time, and a good image of the clock for your reference: TCM Organ Qi Cycle: Our Body Clock. Go check it out!
