By Steve Coster / 12th May 2020

How are you all feeling?  These are difficult times, especially if you are prone to feeling anxious anyway.   It’s  the uncertainty of what lies ahead that makes me feel a bit anxious.  The trick is to stay in the moment, by which I mean, trying not to dwell on the past or the future […]

What day is it? Acupuncture under Lockdown

By Steve Coster / 18th April 2020

Is it week 3 or week 4 of lockdown? I’ve lost track of time.  As an Acupuncturist who works evenings and weekends it’s difficult keeping track of the days anyway.  When I was younger and working in the city, the structure of the week was very rigid. Monday was the start of the week; I […]

By Steve Coster / 21st March 2020

In Chinese Medicine the Coronavirus is just like any other cold or flu; that is, it primarily affects the respiratory system.  But left unchecked, and depending on your overall health, it can soon work its way deeper into the body, causing more problems as it goes.

Life in a World of Imbalance

By Steve Coster / 9th March 2020

We live in a world that is out of balance.  The planet itself is not out of balance of course, it just does what it has always done.  The imbalance I’m talking about is within us; we just project that on to everything else. Did you know that between the war years of 1940 and […]

Growing Stuff and Grounding Meditations

By Steve Coster / 27th January 2020

Last week I went to check out an allotment that I agreed to help a friend with.  She had warned me that it needs a lot of work, so I had prepared myself to be confronted by a bombsite, but it isn’t too bad.  It just needs a bit of tidying up.  All the beds […]
