Yep.

'Cause it's telling me I have a second document open somewhere, and I'm going, "Uh, I don't know." So, um, [clears throat] we're working here at the top in the red one today, and this element is different than the others.

Let's just skip through the other ones again.

We have earth with spleen and stomach.

Those are organs we've probably heard of.

Metal element has lung and large intestine.

Again, those are, uh, organs.

Um, can you share a little bit about that, Denise?

Denise, do you wanna share a little bit about your experience with clients in this regard?

Yeah.

So w- w- it's a really interesting, the muscles you highlighted are all, three of the four you mentioned.

Uh, anterior deltoid, the front part of the shoulder, the rhomboids, um, the pec major sternal.

These are all fundamentally essential for healthy shoulder movements.

And the last one was the popliteus behind the knees.

So when people have a lot of trapped anger, they tend to have a lot of tension in their upper body.

And can you just share what happens when people kinda override themselves, and what happens to the emotions and the muscles?

And, um, the wisdom and deep intuition that can happen when we can let go of fear.

Well, Sue, some weird things lately.

Hopefully I'm displaying the correct.

Graphic, yes? Yes.

Great.

So we had started with the fire element some couple episodes back.

We moved to earth element, the metal element, and here we are at water.

back based on that hydration as well? I'm thinking of a collection of people I've seen

So Denise, can you help us understand a little bit more about how the metal element fits into the five-element wheel? And then how do these emotions come out of there?

[laughs] Fabulous subject.

So I'm gonna just share for those of you who are listening, I'm showing a diagram, [clears throat] if I can find the right button.

Um, I'm showing a diagram that shows the five elements of Chinese, um, theory, beginning with fire at the top, and the energy of fire moving clockwise through the five elements brings us to earth.

So we've already spoken of those two elements in previous podcasts.

And now we're on metal and how the earth gives up its, uh...

Under pressure and as trees regen- go create earth, eventually we find metals come out of the earth.

Mm.

there's more.

And these ones connect to the lymphatic system of the body.

the one that I'm activating right now.

So if this muscle isn't getting its optimum flow of lymphatic fluid to do what lymph does, your muscle's going to struggle.

Okay, she says.

So then I retested her muscle and it locked.

And I said, feel your shoulders.

Mm-hmm.

Stay away from it and a

lot of inflammation will go away.

So if you're not annoying your small intestine with substances, for example, like gluten or things that you're uniquely sensitive to.

It could be, I had somebody once, I was like, what's going on with, oh, it was a weird paprika thing.

Like, her body was like, because I have scan substances, and she's going, well, yeah, I put paprika in everything from every meal.

I'm going, even breakfast? She goes, absolutely, got to have paprika on the eggs.

And paprika, paprika, paprika.

in Canada and the US, I believe.
