Body Stiffness & the Wood Element
Stiffness indicates your body is out of balance. In the perspective of Traditional Chinese Medicine, being “stiff as a board” is an imbalance of the Wood Element within your body. When your Wood Element is healthy and growing, your energy will be flowing, and your body will be naturally flexible.
The Wood Element includes your Liver and Gall Bladder Meridians, governing your tendons and ligaments, which become flexible and healthy by eating lots of greens and through more daily stretching.
