Energy Works

Blood Building, Qi, & Food Energetics


Listen Later

Tune into the newest episode of our Energy Works Podcast, where science meets spirit to help you heal, energize, and thrive. 

In this episode, Blaine explores the connection between qi and blood in Traditional Chinese Medicine. This is a focused follow-up to her February 23, 2026 episode on the spleen energy. She explains how “qi moves blood, but blood carries qi,” highlighting why rich, nourishing blood is essential for vitality. 

She talks through a few everyday habits that can drain your energy without you noticing. Some of them might hit a little close to home.

There’s also a shift in how to think about food. Not just what gets labeled as healthy, but what your body can use to rebuild and stay supported.

Toward the end, she walks through a few simple things you can try right away that make a noticeable difference over time.

This episode is an invitation to slow down, nourish deeply, and support your body with warmth, rhythm, and intention. Now available wherever you get your podcasts!
