Find peace of mind with Daoist practices like the "Six Healing Sounds" and breathing techniques

Are you feeling stressed and anxious?

Lately I’ve been hearing more students say they are stressed and worrying about Uni, exams, cost of living and generally life.

The thing is, the more we feed our mind with our negative emotions, the more likely we are to make poor choices around the food we eat, the exercise we do (or don’t do) and how late we stay up watching box sets or playing computer games.

It should be clear to you that the anxiousness creates a negative spiral that makes it more and more likely that your health will suffer, your immune system will be compromised and you will likely be more vulnerable to things like viruses and illness.

It makes sense but did you know that in Chinese medicine they view stress and worry as connected to particular organs in the body?

You may be overly stressing and worrying because your spleen and kidneys are out of balance. ⚖️😔

And the more you stress and worry the more you’re kicking your Spleen and kidneys out of balance.

Fortunately, Chinese practises also have the antidote. They have specialist breathing exercises called Dao Yin that help restore the natural balance of all your organs, your body, emotions and your mind.

Why not break the cycle now by making a list of 5 things you could do to right now to start boosting your resilience?
