    Please support our efforts: buymeacoffee.com/twowisetrees In episode #2 of Two Wise Trees podcast we answer a reader question about why she is tired and lacking motivation most of the time. We talk about the differentiation based on the 5 organs in Chinese medicine: Heart: marriage, other family ties, “married“ to job, “blood is thought” Spleen: mind is busy Kidney: secondary battery Liver: energy is trapped Lung: sickness, allergies, trauma When someone comes in for a visit complaining of low energy we start with ruling our biomedical factors such as low thyroid, iron, or other more serious factors. Then we look at the Chinese medicine factors based on the organ systems listed above, and get a little deeper into how each system would manifest as low energy, possible causes, and some remedies. Enjoy!

    To support our efforts, please donate to: buymeacoffee.com/twowisetrees In episode #1 of Two Wise Trees Podcast we share who we are, and a bit about our backgrounds as licensed acupuncturists and long time students of astrology. Acupuncture and Chinese medicine is how we determine what is going on with the body, where is it in the body and what organs are affected. Astrology is looking at the cycles and discovering the timelines for certain issues as determined by planetary transits. We get into the difference between the traditional holistic worldview which considers humans to be an integrated part of nature and the cosmos, and the more modern reductionist, separatist view that considers humans as apart from nature. To make it all a little more down to Earth we discuss what is a healthy diet according the Chinese medicine. We share some guidelines that may run slightly counter to a modern idea of healthy diets and also the importance of knowing what is right for any given person, their physical constitution, circumstances, and goals. If you have questions about Chinese medicine, acupuncture, health, astrology, or need a new perspective on healing in your life please email us at twowisetreespodcast@gmail.com. Thanks!
