Metal: You are precious

Dr. Elizabeth Cox, ND, LAc Posted on December 13, 2022 by Dr. Sarita CoxDecember 13, 2022

You are precious is one of the messages that I speak to my patients during the fall season. Outside of the clinic, I love to remind friends or strangers how valuable they are. Try it and notice how it makes you feel. It immediately moves me into heart space.  I delight in seeing the sparkle in their eyes or their body relax into goodness. What an easy way to make the world a better place. Metal is the element of autumn. Theme of the season is value, worth, letting go of that which no longer serves, honoring our grief, integrity, … Continue reading →

Metal: Sweat it out

Dr. Elizabeth Cox, ND, LAc Posted on November 17, 2022 by Dr. Sarita CoxNovember 17, 2022

Sweat it out! I love my infrared heavenly heat sauna. And I am giving myself a big dose of self love today as I ready myself for a week of top performance. The metal element rules the lungs. Skin is an expression of the lung. The function of the pores to open and close depends on the balance of our internal metal. One of the best investments that I made in the last 10 years is a home sauna. I don’t choose to use public saunas for two reasons. It’s a poor use of my time to travel from home … Continue reading →

Metal: You are your most valuable asset

Dr. Elizabeth Cox, ND, LAc Posted on November 13, 2022 by Dr. Sarita CoxNovember 17, 2022

You are your most valuable asset.  So start acting like it.  Metal is associated with preciousness and value:  wealth, investments, quality stuff.  You are precious.  Take good care of yourself.  If you have not yet established a self care routine, simply start with one intentional self loving act a day. Make a list of all the ways that make you feel appreciated, loved, cared for, healthy, happy and do this for yourself.  It might be taking a sunset walk, getting a pedicure, resting at 3 o’clock instead of coffee or tea cover up the tiredness, watching the clouds, skipping stones … Continue reading →

Metal: Dry brush your skin today

Dr. Elizabeth Cox, ND, LAc Posted on November 13, 2022 by Dr. Sarita CoxNovember 17, 2022

Want a Fall wellness routine that is easy as it gets?  Dry brush you skin just before you get in the shower. Brush in long strokes from the extremities toward the chest. This helps move the lymph along it’s pathways and supports your immune system. Brush through the joints not to the joints. Lymph is concentrated in the joints, in the belly, groin, arm pits and sides of the neck. The skin is an expression of the lung. Tis the season to get brushing with a natural bristle brush. Go on…..love yourself a little more today and brush off the dead skin … Continue reading →

Mirror. Mirror.

Dr. Elizabeth Cox, ND, LAc Posted on November 12, 2020 by Dr. Sarita CoxNovember 12, 2020

In Chinese culture the circle shape is associated with the Metal/Fall season and represents oneness, unity and being fulfilled. Perhaps one of the most common circles we encounter in our daily lives are mirrors. It is in a mirror that we can physically reflect on ourselves, however it is possible to reflect without a mirror as well. Look for circles today, but more importantly, reflect on what makes you whole.  One self-care practice that I invite some of my patients to incorporate into their daily lives is looking into their eyes in the mirror daily and speak aloud ‘I love … Continue reading →
