Dear friends,
It is a great joy to be here sharing this space with you. Today marks the birth of my very first Blog post!
I want to talk to you about a subject that truly inspires me and that I consider essential: integrative health and the relationship between emotions and organs according to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).
In the integrative view of health, we don’t just look at physical symptoms; we seek to understand the origin of imbalance — that deeper place where body, mind, energy, and emotions intertwine. Chinese Medicine teaches us that every emotion is intimately connected to an organ and that when an emotion becomes stagnant, it can create physical, mental, and spiritual suffering.
The beauty of this approach is that it doesn’t stop at theory: we also have practical tools that allow us to release those emotions. One of them is
acupressure — the massage of specific points on our body that activate energy flow and help unblock what has been trapped.
Today I’d like to share with you some of these points so that you can recognize them and use them as self-care tools:
- Liver 5 (LIV5): a point to release pent-up anger, the emotion that arises when we feel limited or frustrated.
- Gallbladder 30 (GB30): linked to indecision and the difficulty of making clear choices. Stimulating it helps restore direction and confidence.
- Heart 1 (HT1): a deep and emotional point, used when something has touched our heart and we need to release pain or vulnerability.
- Small Intestine 10 (SI10): helps protect the heart from harm and emotional overload, promoting clarity and discernment.
- Spleen-Pancreas 12 (SP12): connected with excessive worry, when the mind becomes repetitive and restless.
- Stomach 30 (ST30): works on emotional digestion, helping us let go of what we “cannot swallow” or process in our lives.
- Lung 1 (LU1): releases sadness and melancholy, reconnecting us with the ability to open up to new air, to what is coming.
- Large Intestine 4 (LI4): one of the master points, which tones the energy of the large intestine and helps us release — both physically and emotionally — what we no longer need.
- Kidney 10 (KI10): works on deep fears, restoring strength and inner security.
- Bladder 40 (BL40): located behind the knee, it also helps process fears and release tension accumulated in the lower back and lumbar area.
Each of these points is a doorway to our inner world. When we touch them consciously, we are not just working on a muscle or a nerve: we are releasing emotional memories, old blockages, and creating space for energy to flow again.
My invitation is that through conscious massage, movement, breathing, and inner listening, we learn to recognize our emotions as messages and allies — not as enemies. Because when an emotion is released, what emerges is greater vitality, clarity, and peace.
Integrative health is not a fixed destination, but a continuous journey of self-knowledge, care, and connection with ourselves.
Thank you for reading me and for accompanying my work!
