Winter Batteries: Protect Your Kidney Energy (TCM Edition)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Winter is kidney season in Traditional Chinese Medicine, and if you’ve been exhausted, anxious, freezing, losing hair, or wondering why coffee isn’t cutting it anymore — this episode is for you. In Season 3, Episode 2 of Women on the Brink, I’m talking about kidney jing (the energy you’re born with), why mine was basically running on fumes, and how winter quietly drains women through hormones, fertility, fear, and burnout. We’re covering kidney vacuity, hair loss, low libido, infertility, bone health, why rest is non-negotiable, and what to actually eat and do this season to protect your life battery. Less hustle, more warmth, fewer iced lattes. Your kidneys will thank you.
