Emphasize Mental Adjustment in Spring
The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine says, "During the three months of spring, old things are replaced with new. Heaven and Earth come to life, and all things flourish." Su Shi also vividly portrays the vitality and dynamism of spring with "Beyond the bamboo, a few peach blossoms bloom; the ducks in the spring river are the first to know that the water has warmed." According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), spring is when liver energy is most active. The liver governs free flow and prefers a state of smoothness while resisting depression. Therefore, special attention should be given to mental adjustment in spring to maintain a positive outlook and an open mind. This helps ensure the free flow of liver energy and harmonizes the blood and qi, achieving the purpose of preventing illness and maintaining health.

The First Step from “Birth” to “Growth”: Clear Summer Dampness Without Injuring the Spleen
According to "The Seventy-Two Climates": "Start of Summer, the festival of the fourth month. The character 'start' has been explained in spring. 'Summer' means 'expansion'; all things have expanded by this time." As the first solar term of summer, Start of Summer ushers out the bright spring light and welcomes the lush summer. This year, May 5 is Start of Summer. "First候: the mole cricket sings; second候: earthworms appear; third候: Tendraria grows." With the start of Start of Summer, we hear frogs croaking in the fields, see earthworms working hard for farmers, and watch gourds and vegetable sprouts competing to drink sweet rainwater, all racing to grow, a true symbol of the prosperity of all things starting at Start of Summer. South of the Qinling Mountains and Huai River, rainfall is abundant, which is of course good news for crops and plants. However, heavy summer rains can make people uncomfortable. The heart and summer both belong to the fire element, and according to traditional Chinese medicine, the heart corresponds to summer, with its energy connected to that of summer. At this time, the heart's fire begins to rise slowly. In many regions of our country, temperatures gradually rise, people sweat… -
What is the Realm of “Supreme Goodness as Water”?
The eighth chapter of Laozi says: The supreme goodness is like water. Water benefits all things without contention, residing where others loathe to be, thus it approaches the Dao. It dwells in lowly places, its heart is deep and profound, it associates with others benevolently, its words are trustworthy, its governance is orderly, its actions are capable, and its movements are timely. Precisely because it does not contend, there is no blame. The meaning of this passage is that the highest goodness is like water. Water is good at assisting all things without contending with them. It stays in places disliked by others, thus it comes close to the Dao. A person of supreme goodness lives like water, content with being humble, their heart is as deep as water, they associate with others like water's benevolence, their words are as sincere as water, their governance is as systematic as water, their work is as capable as water, and their actions are like water, waiting for the right moment.
