Polarity
YIN
Etymologically it means "hillside that gives shade." Yin energy is expansive, slow, centrifugal. It is the energy that is connected to the cold, the water, the moon, the feminine, the relaxed, the inner, the dispersion, the intuition, the creativity. A Yin body tends to thin, does not retain fat cells (adipocytes) but eliminates them.
People of nature with a tendency to Yin show a tendency to spirituality; They are creative, artistic, imaginative, comprehensive and hypersensitive.
Well-being is defined as a balance between Yin and Yang. An imbalance is the result of a deficiency or an excess of Yin energy or Yang energy. The optimum is to make our body adapt to changing conditions, maintaining the balance between these two opposite and complementary energies.
Thus, for mismatches due to excess energy Yin it is recommended to use Alqvimia products with polarity or energy face plus Yang
