"The 5 Element Personality System:
"The 5 Element Personality System:
How to understand yourself, your cohorts, and your family."
Do you have a hard time understanding people at work or home?
The Five Elements is the oldest system of understanding personalities based on an ancient Daoist understanding of the world. The Taoists proposed that human behavior, emotions, and health are influenced by these elements and that personalities can be distinguished by them.
Are you Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, or Metal? What are your dominant elements and what are those of others around you? How can you use this understanding to harmonize and heal or release relationships in work and in personal life?
When you look through the lens of the five elements, you realize that conflict and differences are rarely personal. More often, they are brought about by different elements being out of balance. Ultimately it helps to foster a deep acceptance of self and others, as everyone is an individual with different rhythms. For example, each element deals with stress in completely different ways. Once you understand that everyone has a challenge in their own dominant element, and reacts to situations in their own way, it opens you up for the deeper acceptance of yourself and others.
Understanding the five elements can also help you better set up more balanced team dynamics, looks for personality traits in hiring, and putting the right person in the right seat, which can help you decode your own leadership style.
Christie Jordan's main goal is to help people cultivate the tools that will ultimately bring their lives into alignment. Christie has 25 years of experience in teaching, working one-on-one with clients, and helping people on their healing path.

She founded Source Healing over 20 years ago, where she currently practices in Winnetka and downtown Chicago. Christie also founded The Awakened Now in 2020, where she teaches online mindfulness courses.
