Sotai Therapies adopts the incredible meridian-based healing arts of Japan and China along with the Five Element theory – Elements relating to the seasons and then corresponding to the relevant organs.
- Spring is the season of fresh new beginnings both in our lives and in nature. Flowers are blooming, seedlings sprouting and plenty of birds and animals being born.
- This is the time of year to detoxify and spring clean your liver and gall bladder to shake off the ‘winter coat’ and any grumpiness!
- Yoga for the joints, tendons, ligaments, eyes and the immune system. When the wood element is functioning well we feel flexible enough to change direction, inspired and connected to our insight, goals and vision for the year ahead.
