Earth in the Body

Sluggishness, loss of inspiration, mental fog, and lack of creativity are some symptoms of an excess of Earth energy.  Earth can become unbalanced when we suffer an imbalance in other elements. Lack of joy, creativity, and inspiration can cause us to feel lazy and lethargic and cause us to lose sight of our purpose and inspiration. This can bring on boredom, constipation, and sometimes weight gain. Everything slows down when Earth is out of balance. Our safety, security, money, trust, and personal power are Earth elements, and these areas can sometimes cause the body a great deal of stress.  

Fire in the body:

When we suffer from fire imbalance, we become dehydrated and hyperactive and can suffer from hair loss. A “fire imbalance” in the body results from overheating and high blood pressure. They both contribute to overworking and depleting our eternal flame. The heart is the life force center of the body, controlling our mind, body, and spirit. It ensures all is functioning well in the body and the mind, maintaining calmness to stay connected to our higher consciousness.

When we burn out and become deficient in our fire, we can remedy it by cooling our emotions with soothing water. In alchemy, this is the union of Fire and Water, or the Sun and the Moon. It is the beginning of the creative cycle as if the seeds need water and warmth to germinate and create new life.  

Water in the Body 

When we suffer from water imbalances, we experience stagnation, low energy, fear, and depression. Water is the root of life force energy that helps us overcome obstacles. Water is the element of reflection into the unknown. It takes us into the inner world of the subconscious by showing us what we fear and helps us transform it into wisdom and flexibility. Water mirrors the changing tides of life and shows us how we must adapt.

How can we use water to aid in our physical and psychical lives? The “master gland” between the eyebrows (third eye, if you will) is part of the key to our subconsciousness. Is the pituitary gland the same as the “master gland?” It is responsible for releasing hormones into the bloodstream. It also aids in the function of the kidneys, reproductive system, and metabolism. Water is accountable for the fluidity of these functions. Stress, deep-held emotions, fear, and lack of vitality are responsible for excess water deficiency,

Water deficiency manifests in a multitude of symptoms, including insomnia, restlessness, overactive, dehydration, infertility, memory dysfunction, and headaches are some of the symptoms, including insomnia, restlessness, dehydration, infertility, memory dysfunction, and headaches. Meanwhile, Excess water can cause water retention, which holds onto toxins and can encourage bloating, yeast, low energy, addiction, and depression.

Air Element in the Body 

The air element rules the nervous system, thymus gland, lungs, and circulation. When our bodies become overly imbalanced in the Air element, we suffer from nervousness, mental fatigue or scatter, indecision, self-destruction, instability, and hair loss. Poor circulation and shallow breathing cause weakness in the cells in our body, as they get less and less oxygen the less we breathe. Air is movement, and when we are anxious and lack oxygenation, we become stagnant and overwhelmed with mental burdens. This causes weakness in our hearts and our passions. Air is the direct link to our life force energy. Air is responsible for communication within the body. It is also an essential function in our thought processes. Thoughts and feelings of loss and grief can weaken our lungs energetically, thus lowering our ability to breathe in life. When we experience loss, the sensation of lack is translated through the heart and communicated through the throat by the thymus gland. The thymus is part of our immune system and energetically responsible for our self-love. The way we talk to ourselves and our inner dialogue is a very important key to building immune health.
