Hormones are proteins produced by endocrine glands, the many glands in our body which constitute the Endocrine System. A woman’s ovaries are endocrine glands that produce female hormones that regulate a woman’s menstrual cycles, fertility, reproduction and also menopause. The ovaries are considered organs of both the endocrine and reproductive systems.

TCM Body Clock VIII

Chunchieh Bruce Sun, Cac., MSOM, Dipl OM

The Kidney Meridian starts from the inferior side of the small toe. Crossing the middle of the sole and the arch of the foot, it circles behind the inner ankle and travels along the innermost side of the lower leg and thigh, until it enters the body near the base of the backbone. After connecting with the Kidney, it comes out at the pubic bone. Over the abdomen, it runs externally upwards until it reaches the upper part of the chest (the inner side of the clavicle).

Balancing Stress with The Vagus Nerve

Emily Klik, LMT, CST

The vagus nerve is the tenth cranial nerve which emerges from the Central Nervous System and is integral to our ability to relax to counterbalance stress. The vagus nerve is critical for our survival and manages our vital functions. It emerges from the cranium just behind our ears and travels down through the neck and throat past the hyoid bone into the chest cavity on its way into our abdomen.

Transformation

Eric Ehrke, LCSW, LMFT



When an infant scrapes his or her knee, they often run to their parents in tears. When a nurturing mother/father or sensitive caretaker scoop this child up, holds them close to their heart and spontaneously offers compassion many good things happen. Comforting actions and soothing words are natural responses to another’s suffering for a wise soul with a loving heart. Love and compassion offer the infant an immediate choice. The child can focus upon his or her pain…or the love emanating from their parent’s heart. If the infant focuses upon love, the pain in their knee subsides. Folklore focuses upon the magic of parenthood, but in reality, the infant healed themself by what he or she focused upon after the knee was injured. Most of us fail to realize that we heal ourselves. Others can help when they hold a loving space for us when we struggle, but we make the choice what we focus upon…a loving solution or our scrapped knee. This article will explore the mystery of transformation and how we heal ourselves.
