Wives Not Sisters

Marisa Leal: 5 Elements of TCM, Nuance in Medicine & Listening to Your Body


Listen Later

In this episode the host, Kayla Nielsen, brings back a guest for the second time: Marisa Leal.

Marisa is Kayla’s TCM doctor. She treats her holistically through acupuncture, herbs, and lifestyle changes.

If you missed the first episode with Marisa, makes sure to go back and give it a listen to understand more on why she chose this life path through a mental health perspective.

In this episode, Marisa dives deeply into the 5 Elements of TCM (water, earth, fire, metal, and wood).

She describes each other these elements in relation to a person’s life cycle, seasons, and personality type.

If you’re curious about your Element type, make sure to tune in. You can also check out the attached graphic to learn more.

Additionally, Marisa talks about herbs and supplements to bring each Element type back into balance.

Kayla and Marisa talk about the oversaturation of the supplement world, and how to know what to take and when.

They discuss elements of diet culture as seen in our society and through wellness in particular.

The common thread is: you know what’s best for you & to listen to your body.

This is easier said than done, so they both share simple ways to start this process.

This is an incredible episode that you won’t want to miss!
