 |
One of the most powerful ways we can help
to improve our well-being is to make appropriate changes to our lifestyle.
Lifestyle includes our level of activity – how much we work, rest, and
exercise. It also is concerned with the conditions in which we conduct
these activities, and how these affect us.
Lifestyle changes offer a way in which we can
help ourselves. At The Women’s Clinic, your practitioner will work with you to
identify ways in which you can care for yourself, to help you attain - and
maintain - better health.
For many women, eating appropriately is a

eating patterns.
A fundamental principal of Chinese medicine
is that idea that ‘we are what we eat’. The quality of our 'qi' is directly
related to the quality of the food we take in. Chinese dietetics looks at the
balance and quality of what each individual eats. It also looks at how and in
what conditions we eat our food.
The objective is to ensure that each
individual gets the optimum nourishment from their food, both through what is
eaten and the way it is eaten. |
