But beyond the beauty of spring, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) recognizes this as a critical time to reset your Qi—your body’s vital energy.

In TCM, May marks the peak of spring’s Liver Qi season, a phase where stagnant energy from winter needs clearing. If you’ve been feeling fatigued, irritable, or sluggish, it’s not just "spring fatigue"—it’s your body signaling an imbalance in Liver Qi.

Signs Your Qi Needs a May 2025 Reset

When Liver Qi stagnates, you may experience:
✔ Unexplained fatigue (even with enough sleep)
✔ Bloating or sluggish digestion
✔ Mood swings or irritability
✔ Neck/shoulder tension (classic Liver Qi congestion)
✔ Allergies or skin flare-ups (TCM links these to Liver imbalance)

The good news? Early May 2025 is the ideal window to rebalance before summer’s fiery energy kicks in.

3-Step May 2025 Qi Reset (TCM Approved)

1. Acupuncture for Liver Qi Movement

A May acupuncture session focuses on:

• Releasing stuck Liver Qi (points like LV3 + GB34)
• Boosting detox pathways
• Calming stress responses

2. Lymphatic Massage for Gentle Detox

Skip harsh cleanses—lymphatic drainage massage helps:

• Reduce puffiness + bloating
• Support natural detox (no extreme diets needed)
• Enhance circulation for brighter skin

✅ 2025 Trend Alert: Pair with ginger or grapefruit oil for an extra metabolic boost.

3. Spring Eating for Liver Support

TCM recommends light, green, and sour foods in May:

• Dandelion tea (Liver cleanser)
• Steamed greens + lemon water (alkalizing)
• Mung beans (cooling + detoxifying)

✅ Easy 2025 Recipe: Try goji berry + chrysanthemum tea for Liver + eye health.

Why Act Now (Not Later)?

Most people wait until exhaustion hits. But May 2025’s energy shift offers a rare chance to prevent burnout with proactive care. Just 1-2 sessions this month can:

• Boost energy for summer activities
• Ease stress before it builds up
• Improve sleep + digestion naturally
