36. Balancing Tension & Relaxation (Part 2 of 3: Tissue States)

We have specific, cultural ideas about what tension and relaxation mean, but do they mean the same thing when it comes to tissue states? And what do they have to do with symptoms like headaches, muscle knots, hiccups, canker sores, yeast infections, and excess sweating? In this episode, I share how the states of tension and relaxation must be in balance to prevent these and other symptoms, and how to do that with every day foods and herbs. I also share how the four elements and tastes of Southern Folk Medicine align with the Six Tissue States of Physiomedicalism and Western Herbalism.
