• Chinese medicine’s approach to psycho emotional conditions; understanding the “heart” vs. “brain” in TCM
• Seasonal living & tapping into the seasons to foster mind-body-connection + how this can affect diet and exercise to align with this energy according to Chinese Medicine
• “Yin time” vs “yang time”- defining each of these energies and how to practically adjust your lifestyle to find balance between the two
• Healing from burnout - what steps Allison has taken in her own life to adjust her body and life to bring back balance
