Element of Metal is associated with the Element of Space allows for separation and openness, enabling the proper arrangement of bodily structures and functions, such as the space within the intestines or the mouth.

In Tibetan medicine, the element of space is one of the five fundamental elements that constitute all phenomena, both within the human body and the external environment. It is responsible for creating separation and allowing room for development, enabling the other elements to interact and coexist. In the body, space manifests as the cavities and hollow spaces, such as the intestines, the spaces between cells, and the ear canals, which are essential for physiological function. It also governs the sense of hearing and contributes to the openness and clarity of the mind.

The balance of space is crucial for mental and physical well-being. When space is well-balanced, individuals experience a sense of time, clarity, and the ability to harmonize work, home life, and spiritual practice.

However, an imbalance can lead to negative states: too little space results in a cluttered, hurried life, while too much space may cause feelings of disconnection, driftiness, and an inability to focus on accomplishments.

The element of space is also linked to the mind’s capacity for openness and mental clarity, with an overabundance potentially leading to a neurotic or overcrowded mental state.

Space is not merely an absence of matter but a dynamic, functional force that supports the integration of the other elements—earth, water, fire, and wind—within the body and mind. It is considered all-pervasive and essential for the formation and maintenance of the body’s structure and function, including the proper alignment of the three humors (wind, bile, and phlegm) and the seven bodily constituents.
