Break the Yang Addiction with Brodie Welch Your Longevity Blueprint

    • Nutrition

Chinese medicine is more than just treating health symptoms. It’s bringing the body back into balance using lifestyle improvements, self-care and -respect practices, and nourishing our vitality. Brodie Welch joins me to talk about how she uses acupuncture, qi gong, and Chinese medicine to help high-achieving women start enjoying their lives again.
 
How to Break Free of the Yang

Make time for joy

Make time for rest

Make time for proper nourishment

Rest your mind and observe where you’re coming from

Live from a place of balanced ease and balanced action

Treat yourself with the same kindness you would treat someone else
