The Five Elements.
The Five Bodies
The next concept to understand is the five “Wu,” or the fives phases. Traditional Chinese Medicine focuses on what happens with energy when it is here in the physical realm. The five elements -- fire, earth, metal, water and wood -- represent different phases of energy and the focus is on the relationship between phases/elements and their effects on each other. This forms the basis for Traditional Chinese Medicine’s holistic understanding of maintaining health within our five bodies.

Quotes:
“I love science and I can geek out and wonk out on science.” - Candace Veach
"The concept of Qi was developed by sages and seers thousands of years ago based on natural observation and on deep meditative inquiry.” - Candace Veach
“Science can’t always measure what they know is there, like with a black hole, they measure the effects . . . they know dark energy exists but they can not measure it” - Candace Veach
“It is so subtle, and so refined, and so indescribable, that they can't get a hold on it, other than knowing that it's there, something is there.” - Candace Veach
“And that's why the universe just keeps expanding out in every direction. Not because of a big bang, but because there's this generative creative force that is creating more of itself in a continuous fashion.” - Candace Veach
“The Qi field. The Akashic field. This is this rarified connective invisible fabric that holds everything together.” - Candace Veach
“And in the yoga tradition, there is a simple mantra that it says, ‘all that is and ever was and ever will be is That.’” - Candace Veach
"Gravity is a force that is moving and dancing with this other force, [the Generative force/Qi Field] which some are hypothesizing is sort of the counterbalance to Gravity, it's expanding things while gravity pulls things inward. And that would be a yin/yang pairing.” - Candace Veach
“But for me, I think the most pervasive pattern is the most obvious one, which is that simply wherever we look, if we look closely enough, we find this empty space that isn't actually empty.” - Candace Veach
