We have all the Five Elements within us. Imagine the Five Elements as a tightly woven, efficient and effective business run by five partners. One partner leaves the company for a long vacation so the other four do their own work and share the rest of the workload. Suddenly, another partner falls sick. Now three are running the company. This is how we become imbalanced. Symptoms begin to occur. The goal is to bring the five partners back together into a cohesive and balanced
environment so that the body, mind and spirit function optimally in a state of homeostasis.
