Five Elements Balanced (Mongolian Medicine)
This is a traditional Mongolian folk song
featuring elements of throat singing and a Khoomei.
This is designed to work with the older five elements theory.
The five elements are earth, water, fire, air, and space. These five elements form the metabolism of the body.
– Earth controls the physical structure of the body: bones and flesh. All life forces become
inert and inactive in this element and more energy is used to keep a body active.
– Water controls the kidneys, male and female reproductive organs, and produces antibodies. Water keeps the body and life flowing.
– Fire controls the spleen, liver, pancreas, and keeps all the organs active. It creates fire in the body. It heats water. It regulates sight, provides strength to the body by digesting food, induces hunger and thirst, maintains the suppleness of muscles, and a beautiful complexion.
– Air controls the chest, lungs, and heart and forms the purity of the mind and heart. Air is life itself. It is strength and guides every part of our body. It moves bile and phlegm, which cannot move in the body by itself.
– Space controls the entire body, thyroid, parathyroid, tonsils, saliva, cerebral and spinal fluid, the nervous system, and eliminates poison from the body. In order for air to circulate in the body and maintain a proper balance, there has to be space. If such circulation is blocked, it creates pain, even leading to heart attacks and loss of consciousness.
This works towards directing those elemental energies in the areas mentioned above, in the correct balance.
