Winter in TCM is a time of stillness, rest, and deep nourishment — are you listening to your body’s call to slow down. 🀄️
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, winter is governed by the Water element and is closely linked to the Kidneys and Bladder, which are considered the root of vitality and longevity.
During this season, your body naturally turns inward, conserving energy and building strength from within.
Here are some powerful TCM-inspired practices to support your health this winter:
✨ Prioritise rest and sleep — this is the time to restore your Jing (essence), not push harder.
🍲 Nourish with warm, slow-cooked meals like bone broths, congee, and stews to support digestion and Kidney Qi.
🧣 Keep your lower back and feet warm — the Kidney channel runs through these areas and cold can weaken it.
🧘♀️ Slow down your schedule and reflect — winter is the perfect time for stillness, journaling, and gentle movement.
🌿 Consider herbal support or acupuncture to tonify your Kidneys and strengthen immunity.
If you’ve been pushing through, feeling flat, or dealing with lingering illness, it might be time to rethink how you treat your body through the seasons.
Healing isn’t a one-size-fits-all journey — and winter reminds us that deep healing starts with slowing down.
