Email | 1,945 views direct 
And 'We all know that the spring season is a very sensitive period. Many patients and typical diseases that tend to worsen in the spring, irritability or anxiety, panic attacks, mood depression, gastritis and esophagitis, the headache and dizziness, are all problems that worsen in the spring.
The spring according to Chinese medicine the liver is connected body, its color is green, its sour taste, the element wood, his emotion anger, his characteristic atmospheric wind.
It is no coincidence that many diseases are more acute in the days of wind. And 'demonstrated a statistically increased stroke on a windy day and that too, although more complex to explain, it is no accident.
The liver, according to Western medicine, is the chemical laboratory of the body, medicines and many natural substances such as lactic acid after exercise, are metabolized by the liver. His bowels coupled, the gallbladder, called cholecystitis, collects bile produced by the liver to digest food, especially fats.
The liver suffers when he has to work in excess, then a diet too rich in fats and various chemicals, such as the popular birth control pill, but also substances etiliche or with alcohol.

The hum of the mind

Many people suffer from this problem: the brain, unlike the PC never stops, "does not come off the plug" as my father said. Not only the brain works overtime but creates loops of automatic thought.
One can say that there is a constant background noise, such as tinnitus, only that the unfortunate people who suffer on average do not realize it!
It is believed to think voluntarily, but instead is an uncontrolled production of thoughts. In English we say in our language overthinking and I would say the word that comes closest is mental ruminations.
This habit of mind, to which we attach little importance and that we recognize as we are not accustomed to the silence inside, unfortunately it is not harmless. It feeds on most of our energies and above does not produce anything useful.
We could say that this incessant and disordered mental activity in Chinese medicine produces a progressive weakening of the Spleen, which does not match the physical body, but rather to a function, partly digestive and partly nutrient, relative to the whole body.
But when spring starts?

The long-awaited spring by all, in these cold and windy day, the timing seems to have a substantially different between the Gregorian calendar and the Chinese calendar.
According to the first fact, the spring begins between 21 and 23 March at the time of the equinox, ie when the sun rises exactly east and sets exactly west, giving precise 12 hours of light.
According to the Chinese lunar calendar but this year the spring began January 29 and usually falls between January 21 and February 19 to coincide with the first new moon after the entry of sun in the sign of Aquarius.
Two fundamentally different views, united by the fact that both festivals were connected with the concept of fertility and characterized by major celebrations in the West this pagan worship was then replaced by the Catholic feast of the Annunciation and Immaculate Conception.
Beyond this, however, between the dates of the two visions, or between March 21 of the Gregorian calendar and January 29 of the Chinese, well go 51 days over 7 weeks, quite a difference!

The internal space

Many years ago my teacher after listening to the rhythm of my life and the number of patients who came in contact every day told me that the secret was to find the empty space, where a slit squeeze.
I confess that at that moment, these words did not produce any changes, simply had no meaning, that I had not understood anything.
Only now after years and years of practice listening through yoga and meditation, these words have finally bought a real meaning. In reality they are like a precious secret to me.
Well that's it, I am more than certain, as I am sure that the sun rises every day, it is really possible, is present in every moment the possibility of finding that crack.
I can not explain if this space is found more in the mind or heart, in every way I know it is a haven, a place where there is only your being and is like a hot lover who is waiting for you. Nothing but a sense of absolute completeness.

Possible side effects of allopathic medicines most in use are now known to all: Aspirin and hemorrhagic gastritis can lead to the recent powder formulation can also damage the lining of the esophagus; influenza vaccines can bring fever and malaise, as well as birth control pills can greatly increase the headache.
If we look at the leaflet (package including the packaging of drugs), we discover that are infinite possible side effects, now by law, drug companies are forced to communicate, and if you read carefully there is to feel bad!
But even non-conventional medicines such as homeopathy, manipulation, and herbal medicine can, if used improperly, creating serious problems also. It 's more rare, but it happens.
In the case of acupuncture, efficacy of treatment, plays a primary role as the therapist's ability to own personal knowledge and aptitude of the latter make the difference between effective treatment and a futile.
Regarding the possible, rare, side effects, acupuncture has a rather large fortune: the effect of the needle is somehow "self", as if he knew of only knows what to do. In the past it was said that the needles have to be smart while the man is stupid. If there is a full body, an "accumulation" of energy, then there is a leakage from the needle of the same. But if there is a gap, the needle is a toning.
Acupuncture, when practiced with knowledge and policy, is structured so that the needle always create a balance and harmony between them and the condition of the host organism.

The expectations generated physical complaints

My teacher says of Acupuncture:
"Disappointed expectations are the real cause of the overwhelming majority of the most common physical complaints"
We are the women who suffer most, because we are more mental, and often we think of more, let me tell you, we hurt.
We are willing to give a reasonably easy and very often take too much, other than the requirement.
We do this perhaps because we feel like it, or because it seems nice, but then there's trouble!
We begin to demand, expect others to do the same with us and this does not happen on time!
In severe cases, we plan or imagine the things we desire in great detail so that when you finally realize you are never, ever, just like we dreamed it again and totally unnecessarily suffer.

I can not help but observe that even if they start to increase patients considering acupuncture an effective and without risk to treat many diseases, are still very many people who come to my office after having tried everything, a little as if going by the sorcerer!
Some admit it openly and at the time of first visit, others confess at the end when the result arrives, according to them magically.
It 's very useful then explain that acupuncture is not a matter of faith: acupuncture works on the energy of the body and therefore its action is not directly visible.
If an Australian aborigine for the first time directly from the forest came to town, it would be easy to make him believe that turning on the light with a simple switch we are able to do magic, right?
