With Shen Essence products we manage, in the hectic and fast living times we live in, to give some of these natural strengths back to our body. When harmonizing the 5 elements we then become centered and support our body, mind and spirit in their natural grounding, and a positive outer radiance.
THE POWER OF THE 5 ELEMENTS
According to the change of seasons, a day also passes through different qualities of energy. Ideally, when living in accordance with nature, human beings have a natural rhythm which matches one of the 5 elements and aligns with nature. Therefore everyday we have a transformation period before we are fully awake, reach our height of activity later on, then tuning down into a calmer period, until our outer activity relatively diminishes while we are asleep.
Based on the knowledge about the interaction of the 5 elements, a human life span may also be divided into 5 periods: Childhood/growth (Wood), maturation/puberty (Fire), middle age/family/sedentariness (Earth), later middle age/experienced working process (Metal), senior age/retirement/wise adviser (Water).
