Mind Body Home – Details, episodes & analysis

What if your physical symptoms were rooted in emotional or spiritual imbalance—not just the body?

To kick off our Summer Guest Series, I’m joined by Dr. Monique G. Rodriguez, L. Ac., licensed acupuncture physician and founder of Five Element Wellness Center. We dive into the powerful world of Five Element Acupuncture—a unique approach within Traditional Chinese Medicine that treats the root cause of imbalance by understanding a person’s core elemental constitution: wood, fire, earth, metal, or water.

Dr. Monique shares:

• How Five Element Acupuncture differs from traditional methods
• Why the emotional body matters just as much as the physical
• The traits of each element (and how to spot your own)
• Her holistic advice for women in their 40s & 50s navigating hormone shifts, identity changes, and the desire for something more
• What happens when your element is out of balance—and how to support it

We also talk about nervous system regulation, emotional release, midlife clarity, and how lifestyle + environment influence your overall well-being.

If you’re craving a deeper, more aligned understanding of health—and yourself—this episode is a must.

Summer is here—and it’s the perfect time to bring more intention, joy, and ease into your workday. Whether you work from home, have a creative corner in your living room, or head into an office, your workspace plays a major role in how focused, fulfilled, and inspired you feel.

In this episode, Sara shares simple but powerful Feng Shui tips to reset your office space for summer. You’ll learn:

• Why summer is the season of the Fire element—and what that means for your creativity and purpose
• The best (and worst) desk positions for productivity, confidence, and energetic flow
• How your office setup might be quietly affecting your income, motivation, and clarity
• Quick decor, layout, and color shifts to boost inspiration (without redecorating everything!)
• The one thing not to do if you’re feeling stuck in your business or career

Your environment reflects your energy—and also shapes it. A small change in your space could spark a big shift in how you show up. Let’s make sure your space is supporting you this summer.

Listen now and give your office the reset it deserves.
