In some Chinese Qigong practices, balancing fire and water elements within the Self is a study of growth and harmony. When one element is out of balance, so is the other, and adjustment is required to restore the balance once again.

This past week I was thinking about fire and water. They both have many representations to me. I think of Fire as heat, anger, inflammation, passion, energy, and extreme emotion…

A change happened with me when I switched from the verbal WE, to I. As in, ‘WE all do blank’, and ‘everyone needs blank’, now changed to ‘I do blank’, and ‘I need blank’.
