Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Stimulate healing with acupuncture. Thin, sterile needles are inserted at particular points on the body to unblock energy flow. There's no scientific explanation for why this works, but acupuncture may stop smoking, end fertility struggles, relieve stress and pain relief.

  2. Step 2

    Visit an herb pharmacy. Chinese herbs may have the power to enhance the mind and body connection, the basis of their healing properties. These herbs help the body to adapt to its environment and replace cell energy and tissue to regulate optimum body function.

  3. Step 3

    Practice Qigong, which employs movement and meditation to promote the connection of mind and body. Visualizations are also used for stress-relief, body healing and overall well-being. Find a class at a holistic healing center close by, or call a local Chinese doctor for a referral.

  4. Step 4

    Get a Tui Na Chinese massage. This type of massage penetrates deeply and works on the same energy channels as acupuncture to stimulate the flow of energy. This massage also improves circulation to promote a healthier body and mind. It's used to treat digestive, respiratory, reproductive and skeletal disorders, which are often stress-related.
