With the heat well and truly here, it’s a good time to pay extra attention to heart health.

In Chinese medicine, summer is the season of the Heart — linked to joy, connection, sleep, and emotional balance. During heatwaves, it’s common to feel more restless, wired, or depleted if we’re not cooling and nourishing ourselves well.

You might like to revisit an older blog Tania wrote on heart health and joy in summer — its insights feel especially relevant right now.

If this resonates, she’ll be exploring these themes more deeply in her upcoming workshop, Ignite Your Inner Fire: Cultivate Joy, Calm & Heart Wisdom, where you’ll work with heart-centred self-care, food as medicine, gentle movement, and seasonal rhythm. - Sun Feb 15 | Katoomba. Bookings now open.

Friday Qigong Classes start back next week - from Friday 16th

If the Christmas–New Year period has left you feeling a little sluggish, heavy, or out of rhythm, Qigong is a wonderful way to gently get moving again.

These are slow, mindful movements — nothing strenuous, no pushing, no overheating. Just simple, flowing sequences that help loosen the body, circulate energy, and calm the mind. And yes, the fitness centre is air-conditioned, so it’s comfortable even on hot summer afternoons.

Qigong is especially supportive in summer: it encourages circulation without exhaustion, helps release tension, and supports a sense of calm and clarity when the heat and busyness build up.

If you’re thinking about a New Year’s resolution, this is a sustainable one — showing up once a week to care for your body, breathe more deeply, and move with awareness.

All levels are welcome. Feel free to message me if you’d like more details or to come along and try it.

“Beautifully structured and full of practical wisdom — a perfect blend of theory, movement, and seasonal self-care that truly nurtures the heart.” - This is just one of the reflections from people who attended Ignite Your Inner Fire, a heart-centred seasonal self-care workshop with Tania Grasseschi, Chinese medicine practitioner and Qigong teacher.

This nourishing day explores how sleep, emotions, movement, daily rhythm, and food as medicine influence your energy and wellbeing — with practical tools you can use immediately to feel calmer, clearer, and more supported through the summer months.

Sun Feb 15 | 9.30am–4.00pm | Katoomba

If you’re ready to care for your heart, settle your nervous system, and nourish yourself deeply, this workshop is for you.

Summer is here and our local markets are full of fresh, vibrant produce. Eating with the season supports local growers and helps our bodies stay in rhythm with the warmer months.

From a Chinese medicine perspective, summer foods naturally help us cool and hydrate — but it’s important to do this without weakening our digestive fire. Too many iced drinks or cold foods can leave us feeling bloated, sluggish, or out of balance.

A few gentle ways to stay cool while supporting digestion:
• Enjoy seasonal fruits at room temperature rather than straight from the fridge
• Balance cooling foods with grounding meals such as roast vegetable salads, light stir-fries, or gently cooked grains
• Sip room-temperature herbal teas instead of icy drinks
• Use fresh herbs like mint, basil, and coriander to support digestion and add lightness

If you’re curious about what’s growing locally right now, check out the Sydney Markets seasonal summer guide — it’s a great reference for choosing fresh, in-season produce grown closer to home:
https://www.sydneymarkets.com.au/markets/produce-market/whats-in-season/summer.html

Eating seasonally is a simple, nourishing way to care for your body through summer — cooling, refreshing, and supportive without tipping digestion off balance.

In a fast-paced world, it’s easy to forget that our mental, emotional, and physical health are deeply interconnected. International Mind–Body Wellness Day is a reminder that true wellbeing comes from supporting the whole person — not just one part in isolation.

At Lemon Balm Clinic, we honour this holistic approach every day. Our practitioners work with the understanding that stress in the mind can be felt in the body, and physical tension can affect our emotional wellbeing. That’s why we offer a range of supportive therapies — including acupuncture, Bowen therapy, remedial massage, and psychotherapy — each meeting you where you are.

Sometimes one modality is enough. At other times, working together creates deeper, more lasting support. We take the time to listen, collaborate, and tailor care that respects your unique needs and life circumstances.

Today is an invitation to pause and reflect:
• How are you really feeling — in mind and body?
• Where might you benefit from support or guidance?
• What would feeling more balanced look like for you right now?

If you’re seeking gentle, considered support for your wellbeing, our team is here — individually and collectively — to walk alongside you.

Welcome to 2026! January 1 often brings a rush of resolutions and expectations.
Rather than striving to become someone new, this can be a powerful moment to return to yourself.

Some reflections don’t date, and Tania's blog shares ideas that can be especially supportive at the beginning of a new year.

New Year, New You explores a gentler way of setting intentions — one that values self-care, awareness, and steady change over quick fixes. Drawn from the wisdom of Chinese medicine, it reminds us that wellbeing is cultivated through rhythm, nourishment, and respect for the body’s natural cycles.

If you’re stepping into the year with a desire for steadiness and self-acceptance, this may offer a grounding place to begin.

As 2025 comes to a close, we’d like to wish our Lemon Balm Clinic community a happy, healthy New Year.

The end of the year offers a natural pause — a chance to reflect, reset, and gently consider what your body and wellbeing may need as you step into the year ahead.

As the new year begins, we invite you to be guided by self-care and self-acceptance — caring for yourself with kindness and making choices that support your health in a sustainable, balanced way. We’re here to support you whenever you need guidance along the way.

May 2026 bring steadiness, vitality, and a deeper sense of ease.
Here’s to celebrating your health and moving into the year ahead with intention, balance, and care.

Wishing you a gentle, nourishing start to the new year from all of us at Lemon Balm Clinic. Tania (acupuncture), Elyssa (remedial massage), Jen & Katherine (psychotherapy) and Marga (Bowen)

31/12/2025

As the Gregorian calendar turns to a new year, many around the world mark January 1 as a moment of renewal and intention. This date comes from a Roman system later formalized under Pope Gregory XIII in 1582, aligning civil timekeeping more closely with the solar year.

Long before modern calendars, however, many cultures marked the passage of time by the land itself — the solstices, equinoxes, lunar cycles, and agricultural seasons that shaped daily life. In those traditions, “new year” was not a single fixed date, but a living rhythm tied to light, dark, growth, rest, and return.

For some, today is a practical reset; for others, it’s simply one turning of the wheel among many. Both can coexist. Whether you greet this day with reflection, quiet intention, or simply awareness of the longer cycles still unfolding beneath our feet, may the year ahead bring clarity, balance, and respect for the old ways that continue to whisper through the modern world.

Feeling a little heavy or sluggish after the festive season? Before we step into the energy of the new year, it’s a great moment to gently support your body’s natural balance.

Tania wrote this classic article How to Alkalise for Great Health – Part III with simple, nourishing swaps you can start today — like choosing fresh vegetables, whole grains, water over caffeine and sugary drinks, and adding in fermented foods to support your gut. You’ll also find easy lifestyle rituals like deep belly breathing, dry skin brushing, and movement to help your body clear acidic toxins and feel more vibrant.

Read the full blog here and give your body the space to reset and thrive: https://www.orientalwisdom.com.au/2016/01/05/how-to-alkalise-for-great-health-part-iii/

Looking after your digestion and metabolism can be one of the kindest gifts you give yourself before the new year begins.

If you’d like personalised support with digestion, immunity, or metabolism through acupuncture, Chinese herbs or wholefood counselling, Tania is here to help.
