The Chinese philosophy sees a healthy life as one which contains an even balance of the forces of yin and yang. Maintaining a perfect balance between yin and yang is felt by the Chinese to result in perfect health of mind, body and spirit.
An imbalance in the yin and yang leads to imbalances in the energetic balance and usually eventually manifests in the form of physical illness. The Chinese believe that perfect flow of energies through the meridians is a precondition to perfect health.
