Pain is the body's way of telling us that chill is stuck inside our body and is looking for a way to escape. Chill causes bracing. Bracing prevents rest, sleep, and recovery. Over time, people develop deep creases in their face or body — from years of holding tension they did not know how to release. The body molds itself around what it is trying to silence and keep away from the heart. What determines whether chill resolves or compounds is almost never the chill itself. It i

Most people think of diabetes as a blood sugar problem. RestoreChi and TCM see it differently — and the difference matters because, by the time blood sugar shows up in a test, the body has already been compensating for a long time. A distribution problem, not a blood sugar problem The liver converts carbohydrates to glucose. The small intestine absorbs nutrients. The spleen distributes what has been absorbed — sending white and red blood cells, calcium, and nutrients to where

The warning signs were there for years before the diagnosis. This is what happened when RestoreChi was part of the treatment, what made survival possible beyond a prognosis of months, and why addressing the emotional root matters more than most people are willing to accept.

This article is part of an archive series tracing the historic evolution of Master Yan's RestoreChi Specialty Tracks (older articles are not being updated, they serve only as a reference): May 14th, 2022 → Early chill/dampness release, kidney/spleen/liver function, and increase yang tracks (Shifting Perspectives on Detox to Support Embodiment) May 19th, 2022 → Stem track (It's all detox: Remove the sludge from the bottom or pour the lighter stuff out from the top) March 3rd,

Two children with the same diagnosis may need completely different support. Before any treatment, I look at a Kirlian photo to see what the child's system is actually ready for — not what the diagnosis suggests. A real example with before and after photos.

I fell asleep treating sciatica directly. It helped a little but didn't clear. When I moved support to my left kidney instead, the pain finally released by morning. The loudest symptom isn't always the root — and perimenopause is one of the times that matters most.

Your body doesn't only digest food — it also digests stress, emotion, conflict, and change. When that processing gets stuck, the body carries what was left unresolved. This is what my work addresses, and why no two people need the same approach.

Healing isn't always linear — and not everyone needs the same approach or pace. A clear overview of the four ways to work together, what each one is best for, and how to choose a starting point that fits where you actually are.

This video shows the many uses for the old RestoreChi Water Card, but when it came to taking a bath, those who carry a lot of “dampness” (congestion, heaviness, recurring inflammation) needed to use 2-4 cards at a time, and feeling better often came at the cost of severe detox symptoms (nausea, dizziness, sweating it out). You would also often see sticky thick yellow discharge on the walls of the bath after draining the water, and you would need to charge your shampoo with th

Good things can also contribute to allostatic load. A personal reflection on reaching a stress score of 466 — well beyond the threshold for a major health event — entirely from positive changes, and what that teaches about the nature of healing and recovery. Also a guide on how to use Tarot/Oracle cards to access your subconscious. The Recovery Spiral.

This past holiday I read two books on hormones and perimenopause — The Menopause Reset and Eat Like A Girl — and came away with useful information but also a clear sense that there are more loving ways to approach what these books recommend. This article is my attempt to integrate what they offer with RestoreChi and Esogetic Medicine, so you have more options than starving yourself. Ever since reading The Menopause Brain this summer I knew I wanted to shift my diet. And, watc

I've been listening to this podcast series on the various aspects of felt safety: → Inside Felt Safety — Robyn Gobbel → Outside Felt Safety — Robyn Gobbel → Between Felt Safety — Robyn Gobbel ...and I realized that the tools I use map directly onto the three layers Robyn describes. Inside felt safety A Kirlian photo is a direct measure of a person's inside felt safety. It shows which organ systems are under strain, which brainwave patterns are dysregulated, and whether the pe

This is me healing our youngest with RestoreChi — the purple belt around her waist has a Bluetooth speaker playing Liver Gallbladder Pancreas Enhance, Liver Detox, Phlegmatic, Spleen Dampness, and Belt Meridian: I selected these tracks because she has cellulite on her belly — a sign that she has excess hormones she is unable to detox. She also engages in behaviours that tell me her hormones are not balanced. What her earliest photos showed Here are her initial photos from May

I was speaking with the principal and founder of an alternative school that wants to focus more on healing . She left the education system to create her own school, because the public/catholic system was not meeting the needs of her kids. I said that "if her school were focused more on healing than on getting through the curriculum, then it would be like each student had their own Individualized Education Plan". She corrected me to "no, they would have their own Individualize

In January 2024 I finally got the medical imaging device for Esogetic Medicine. I quickly took some photos just to see if the camera worked, but didn't analyze them until March 2024. When I did, I was scared — a sign for potential heart attack risk showed up in my husband's photo: If you are new to Kirlian photography, the short version is this: a Kirlian photo captures the energy coming off the fingertips and toes, and maps it to the organ systems of the body. Things tend to
