The element of Fire ignites our confidence and fuels the passion that lives within us.

The element of Fire encourages us to shine our light, be bold and stand in our power. Fire motivates us to ignite the unique spark that lies within us and take inspired action.

Key words associated with Fire:

  • Transformation

  • Passion

  • Drive

  • Confidence

  • Power

If Fire is high on your elemental constitution, you are naturally dynamic, courageous and charismatic. You are highly motivated, fueled with passion and a natural born leader. You always love a good adventure, and your enthusiasm never fails to fuel your zest for life.

If you’re lacking the Fire element within you, you may feel low energy, experience a lack of self-confidence, play small, or have trouble owning your worth. Here are 3 simple steps to connect to your Fire…

3 Steps to Connect to Fire:

  1. Take an energizing breath in through your nose, out through your nose.

  2. Imagine a flame burning inside your chest.

  3. Repeat the affirmations: I am bold. I am motivated. I am adventurous. I am charismatic. I am passionate.

If you have too much of the Fire element active within you, your critical nature can flare up, fueling over-fixation on the need to control yourself, others, and the need for perfection. Because of your highly productive nature, you may have trouble relaxing and be privy to experiencing burnout. When the warmth of your flame is depleted, you can become frustrated and impatient. Take a deeper dive below into all the ways you can balance your Fire element.

Balancing Your Fire Element Through Your Body, Mind and Energy

Your Fire Body needs to eat cool, juicy, sweet, and bitter foods. An alkaline, plant-based diet is ideal. Your optimal foods list includes – salads, coconuts, berries, cucumbers, mint, parsley, basil, quinoa, couscous, coconut oil, and ghee. Drinking aloe vera juice is beneficial. Avoid tomatoes, eggplant, peppers, and potatoes. Lunch should be your biggest meal of the day. Keep your body cool – use fans at home, dress light in cotton clothes, and moisturize with coconut oil. Release anger or frustration from your body through exercise and expressive movement such as KINRGY X.

Your Fire Mind needs to cool down and relax. Give yourself permission to slow down throughout the day through short 5-10 minute breaks – go on walks, read a book, or simply sit and be. 

Your Fire Energy needs calming breathwork and meditation to slow you down and bring you into the present moment.
