<p>In which we answer more listener questions! </p>
March 19, 2025
<p>First off, you can now show your appreciation and support by <a href="http://buymeacoffee.com/twowisetrees" rel= "nofollow ugc noopener">buying us a “coffee” (tea).</a> Thank you for listening and writing in!</p> <p>In episode #6 we talk about fibromyalgia to answer a question from a listener who suffers from this painful condition. Fibromyalgia from a Chinese medicine perspective can often be traced back to an injury to the Lung system, the most delicate organ. The physical, energetic, or emotional injury causes a shock and a sort of freezing up of this system, leading to the characteristic generalized pain of fibromyalgia, and then of course affects other organs. We talk about how to allow the grief process to thaw out the shock held by the Lung system, and how this can be supported with good routines and self care.</p> <p>Related, we answer a question from a reader about recovering her adrenals after childbirth and also with a history of trauma. This focuses more on the Kidney system, but we also discuss the necessity of taking care of one’s heart space. This same reader shares her birth chart and we look at the configurations of a chart with lots of trines and sextiles, meaning that transits often affect multiple personal planets at once.</p> <p>The heart space is also the focus of a question from a reader who is very health-oriented and wanting to find a partner and have that balance of personal space while keeping her heart open. Audrey shares some beautiful readings on the nature of the heart space and we reflect on what it means to cultivate that.</p> <p>Our final questions are a bit more straightforward, what foods should be avoided across the board? Hint: refined and processed junk foods. The damage of which can also be mitigated with an overall healthy lifestyle so don’t worry too much.</p> <p>Until next time,</p> <p>Audrey and Carly</p>
