This all happens through understanding the different qualities of the Five Elements represented in every area of life.

More about the method:
Since one of the most essential principle of the the Five Elements system is the flow, which means in a practical level that we are in harmony when our energy is moving effortlessly and without obstruction. Five Elements Way of Living can support us in being able to see how we are behaving at the moment, where our typical blocking points are and helps us to develop and maintain awareness in our everyday life, depending of course on our goals. In practical terms, it consists of three simple steps: first, we need to know who we are, what our key talents and qualities are. Then it continues in establishing harmony with ourselves, aka how to be aligned with ourselves and be authentic, which means being happy and content at home alone, not affected by any environmental influences. The final step is harmony with the world for those of us who have goals and inclinations toward the more open space of the whole world. While I would not suggest that this should be the priority of the steps in all cases because it highly depends on one’s personal preferences, it is certain that if the basics are not true and stable, aka I do not know who I am, it may be difficult to achieve the other two levels that follow.
It is a continuation of the "Your Natural Element" successfully implemented project, based on the feedback of past participants.
