Megan's Medicine: Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine: Recent Episodes
Megan Spaeth, L.Ac
Educating and empowering you to use the power of nature within and around you to become the healthiest, most joyful version of your self. Chinese Medicine is the deepest medicine known to man. We're born with the gift of a Divine map on our bodies to restore harmony. To help mainstream this medicine, I share how to understand and practice it on yourself and your family. I also share other natural healing modalities, spirituality practices and interviews with other healers.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Listen today about my morning and evening gratefulness practices and how giving thanks is the key to all abundance. Thankfulness precedes all miracles!

Learn about the Wood element and the personality type.
Wood governs Spring, a time of massive growth and expansion. What was once a small, powerless seed suddenly bursts through the Earth with vigor and strength and excitement to be alive. Yin gives birth to yang and brings the energy of renewal and hope.
Wood people are full of energy. Like the seed that has the goal of becoming a tree, Wood people are always making goals for themselves and seeing that they're implemented all the way through. They're driven, perfectionistic, powerful, and benevolent. Wood people run the world. They like the road not paved. They're leaders and pioneers, discovering and inventing.

Water is wisdom, willpower, flow
