The treasures of Chinese medicine for today's world.

According to Chinese medicine, being in good health means living in physical, emotional and spiritual harmony with oneself, one's social circle and one's natural environment, so as to move towards the flourishing of the whole being, prevent illness and stay young as long as possible.

In this beautifully illustrated book, you will learn to know your body — and its innate wisdom — better through the medicine wheel of the five elements, to develop the art of living well and ageing well. Structured in five parts corresponding to the five elements — wood, fire, earth, metal, water — it invites you to discover a wide range of preventive practices (dietetics, herbal medicine, emotional balance…) as well as a specific programme of Qi Gong postures in pictures, to live in good health and increase your longevity.

Born from the meeting of two women, an innovative book on Chinese medicine adapted to our modern lives and the growing longevity of our Western societies.
