“…Living with nature, ancient people in China understood the yearly, monthly, and daily cycles of changes in nature and within the body (Wong, 2000, 28). They found comfort in knowing that the seasons change—spring generates, summer grows, fall collects, and winter stores and that people change with the seasons (Kohn, 2008, 40). Within traditional Chinese philosophy, a healthy person “both embodies and interacts with cycles – daily, monthly, seasonal, and lifelong” and “the workings of the body are associated with each of the five seasonal cycles of birth, growth, ripening, harvest and decay.” (Beinfield & Korngold, 1991, 33, 39).…”
