The Yin Yang energies are often mentioned in the properties of healing stones. It is tough for some people to fully comprehend what they actually are and how they can benefit them. Therefore, today, we are going to reveal the actual definition of Yin Yang and the philosophy behind it so that you can understand their dominant concepts and perceive how they help you through healing stones.
Yinyang (yin-yang) is explained by many schools of thought in many ways. For that reason, its conceptual meaning is hard to define.
There are differences in interpretation.
Chinese Interpretation
On the whole, ‘Yin Yang is all about the duality of all things in the universe’. It is exhibited in all existence. The Chinese Yin Yang philosophy in particular sheds light on this term in a bit unique way. It says yin-yang ensures a constant dynamic balance of all things.
We have some experts who think it can be described as ‘dark-bright’ or ‘positive-negative’ also. It is up to you to decide which sense of duality suits you the most.
The interesting thing about this philosophy is each side has at its core an element of the other. For example, the positive side has a negative element, even if it is small. Similarly, males have some soft emotions like females. They are rough and strong, but they are sensitive as well. This can be seen in the yin yang symbol; each side represents the dot of the other side.
In other words, it shows everything is not completely white or black.
If you are winning in life, expect to have some challenges. If you are happy in your relationship for too long, expect to have episodes of an emotional roller coaster on the horizon. And if you are dealing with a seemingly perfectly good person, they probably have a dark side that would paralyze you with fear if you realized it.
There is another aspect of yin-yang philosophy that you need to keep in mind – You can’t be fully white or black; it is pertinent to have both sides in a balanced state.
The blending of two creates the whole scenario.
For example, your brain is divided into two halves. It is imperative to use both halves to have a fully functioning mind and make correct decisions. If you are more into thoughts, feelings, and reasons, make sure you are controlling them with intuition and creativity.
Why is it important?
Well, we find the actual answer in Chinese culture. In Chinese healing practices, balancing of yin-yang is essential. If the flow of one side is more or better than the other, you are going to face challenges in your life. Even the deficiency in any side can cause severe issues.
In case you are thinking about what happens when yin and yang are unbalanced, the first sign you notice is the chronic illness.
It can be as simple as dry-mouth or insomnia and severe as cancer or cold-limbs.
The unbalance in both energies also affects your career, business, and sexual life. Your nervous system overpowers you with long stressful periods, puts your body in a panic state, makes you suffer emotional and behavioral consequences, and influences your judgment.
How To Balance The Yin Yang
Luckily, it is possible to keep yin and yang energies balanced in your daily life. For some of us, one side is always stronger than the other.
That’s why we are either very good at something or very bad.
We think it is normal, but in reality, it is not normal at all. It is indeed damaging us in the long term. It is imperative for us to balance both energies as soon as we can.
Here are a few ways to balance yin and yang energies; you will reap a lot of benefits if you follow them daily.

Diet
Stop eating heavily processed foods. Most people associate processed food with health, but they aren’t good for yin and yang energies either. You get a ton of micronutrients that play a major role in misbalancing the energies… Always focus on healthy ingredients that require some sort of preparation, such as fresh meat, fruits, and vegetables.
Meditation

Financial Order
