The Large Intestine organ system & letting go

  • Summary

  • We've reached the all-important Large Intestine in our cycle of the organ systems! In this podcast, I discuss the basic functions of the Large Intestine, the course of the Large Intestine acupuncture channel, and then move to explore some of the symbolism involved with this important, but sometimes ignored, organ system. We talk about letting go and touch into how Chinese medical symbolism can bring us into a new relationship with our bodies, as well as some of the ways this system is used in the treatment room when you see your acupuncturist.

    As always, check out the resources below if you'd like to learn more about this organ system and you can always use the contact form on our website to submit questions or comments about this or any other episode.

    Thanks for listening!
