[RECORDING] Your tongue reveals your health and you’re probably ignoring it.
<p>Dear Alchemist in Training</p><p>In the early ‘90s I visited my cousin from the Bronx who was studying with a chinese medicine doctor in China Town NYC. I was living the lifestyle that you see on TV and in movies of a single woman in the city. My cousin, took one look at me and said, show me your tongue and proceeded to tell me all about my sleep habits, what food I was eating and what I was ignoring when it came to my health.</p><p><strong>My jaw dropped, I thought I was hiding my lifestyle so well, not just from friends and family but from myself.</strong></p><p>That’s when I first became fascinated by the tongue as a diagnostic tool.</p><p>While you regularly check your eyes, ears, and nose, when’s the last time you examined your tongue? This overlooked organ is actually an immediate diagnostic tool, showing what’s happening inside your body before you even feel symptoms.</p><p>Both Ayurveda and Chinese medicine have used tongue diagnosis for centuries. Why? Because your tongue is a map of your organs and systems. That coating you see in the morning? It’s showing you what your body couldn’t break down properly overnight.</p><p><strong>The problem:</strong> modern medicine has abandoned the practice of checking the throat let alone the tongue. Doctors don’t even use tongue depressors anymore. But learning to read your own tongue can save you money on doctor’s visits, supplements, and medications by catching issues early. And most importantly it gives you a heads up on your health.</p><p>00:00 <strong>Introduction and Purpose of the Video</strong></p><p>00:59 The Overlooked Importance of the Tongue</p><p>02:30 Ayurveda and Chinese Medicine Perspectives</p><p>03:29 The Tongue’s Role in Digestion</p><p>07:17 The Tongue as a Diagnostic Tool</p><p>10:48 Practical Tips for Tongue Health</p><p>12:13 Upcoming Class and Q&A</p><p>15:05 Daily Rituals for Better Health</p><p>16:22 Q&A Session</p><p>22:41 Conclusion and Final Thoughts</p><p>This is the first of <strong>6</strong> Daily Sacred Rituals for 2026 where you will receive support in making the most important dinacharya rituals a habit for long term health.</p><p><strong>Friday January 30th, </strong>you’ll learn:</p><p>* How to read your tongue’s health indicators</p><p>* Proper tongue scraping technique (and why brushing isn’t enough)</p><p>* Which signs warn of upcoming colds, flu, or allergies</p><p>* When to see a doctor</p><p>The class is free as a benefit to all paid subscribers.</p><p>Everyone is invited even if you don’t subscribe and are just curious</p><p>* Cost: $35</p><p>* When Friday January 30th 12pm EST, 9am PST 1 hour.</p><p>There will be laughter because sticking out your tongue is just funny.</p><p>This class is designed people who take personal responsibility for their long term health through daily observation and simple rituals, not for those wanting a quick fix.</p><p><strong>Stop guessing about your health. Start reading the map your body shows you every morning.</strong></p><p>If you want to know more before signing up for class. This is a previous post I wrote earlier this year.</p><p>Til next time.</p><p>Peace,</p><p>PS This class is not a replacement for medical advice or diagnosis.</p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
