Five Elements provides a useful paradigm to understand psychospiritual transformation. (Dechar (2006) p xix). Through the approach we are assisted to have an awareness of the conscious and unconscious processes affecting and affected by our spirit and soul.
Be the Master of Your Mind, Not Its Slave
Five Element dialogue provides us with a vocabulary to speak about the behaviour and function of the aspects of our spirt and soul. The vocabulary can provide a useful lens through which we approach our healing.
Most of our thinking patterns, what we believe and how we act was created by conditioned response; often either when we were children or to defend against threats that no longer exist.
In a sense, we act like robots, often using outdated software. Five Element dialogue is a process that allows you to better understand the unconscious conditioned thinking that often drives behaviours. This ancient modality of Chinese Medicine psychology provides an opportunity to live from a deeper place.
The problem is that most of us have not been taught how to do that.
