Earth Element
In the Earth element, we are aware and mentally present. We feel
connected to our body and our place on earth, which gives us food
and helps us in our spiritual and physical growth. A person out of
balance in the Earth element shows that he is absent and he does not
feel connected to his roots or that he offers help excessively. A craving
for sugar is also a signal of imbalance.
The lips, the flavor and the connective tissues are related to the
organic function of the spleen-pancreas.

Metal Element
In balance, this element is characterized by knowing what we do
and do not want. When this element is in balance, the person knows
where his/her boundaries are and to what extent it is allowed to respect
the boundaries of others (the skin belongs to this element). A very
important characteristic of the Metal element is “Take what is needed
and let go of what is not or no longer needed.”
Clarity and boundaries are the key words for this element. Smell
and the skin are influenced by the lung function.
