This has been a special holiday season with a long awaited Winter Solstice that was predicted centuries ago by the Mayan's.  The 2012 Winter Solstice is a time when our paradigm of dualistic thinking is supposed to transform into one of unified thinking.  We need to look for common ground and to integrate the qualities of the Feminine Principle such as collaboration, connection and healing into our culture.  Currently, our culture is struggling to reclaim its soul.  In the past year, we have experienced multiple shootings and most recently a massacre of innocent young children and their teachers.  We are experiencing shocks of greater and greater intensity that should wake us up with a call to transform.  These shocks have brought us together in empathy for the victims, however, due to the illness of desensitization in our society, a few weeks after each crisis, we become complacent and self-absorbed again.

Traditional Chinese medicine has much to say about diet. Proper diet is an important component of health. All foods are categorized into temperature, from hot to cold and flavour, pungent, spicy, sweet, sour and salty. Different temperatures and flavours of food influence the body in specific ways. One should try to include all flavours and a balance of temperatures in every meal. If too much of one type of food is consumed it can create an imbalance within the body.
