The morning dew whispers: Today your change begins.
🔍 Where does this spring fatigue come from?
Why does your body feel like it can't keep up?
And how can you transform this stagnant energy into powerful movement?
🌾 Spring fatigue - your body in transition
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), spring is associated with
for the wood element - the element of growth, development and movement.
But this can be too much if your body is still stuck in the rhythm of winter. Then the Qi builds up - and instead of momentum, you feel heaviness.
Typical signs of spring fatigue from a TCM perspective:
🔹 Liver Qi stagnation - you feel irritable or listless
🔹 Weak center - your digestive system reacts with sluggishness or bloating
🔹 Blood congestion - you have cold feet, headaches or tension
🧬 From a Western perspective:
Your hormonal balance is undergoing a change:
☀️ More light → more serotonin (energy hormone)
🌙 Less darkness → less melatonin (sleep hormone)
But until your system has adjusted, it feels like you're running against yourself.
🌀 The solution?
Don't fight tiredness - get it moving.
✨ 3 ways to gently dissolve spring fatigue:
1️⃣ Activate liver qi - exercise for new energy
Your body needs exercise now to get out of the winter sluggishness.
But it's not about performance - it's about flow.
💡 Tip: Try the "liver stretch" qigong exercise
