Does the lack of sunlight get you down this time of year? You’re definitely not alone. 🌥️

As the days get shorter and the evenings darker, many people — myself included — start to feel that shift in energy. Lately, I’ve had patients tell me that between the chilly weather, gray skies, and earlier sunsets, it’s been harder to stay motivated or find energy during the day.

And you know what? It makes sense. Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is real. When there’s less sunlight, our serotonin (the feel-good hormone) drops while melatonin (the sleep hormone) increases. No wonder we feel more sluggish and crave comfort.

A few simple things can help:
• Get outside for a short walk — daylight and movement boost energy.
• Try a sunrise alarm clock or a full-spectrum light.
• Use red light therapy for 5–10 minutes a day to help regulate rhythm.
• Keep your vitamin D levels up.
• Acupuncture can help restore calm and balance.

However you spend your extra hour this weekend — sleeping in, walking outside, or curled up with a blanket — be kind to yourself. I know I’ll be using that hour to rest and recharge a little more. 💛

🦃 Thanksgiving is around the corner — a time to gather, reflect, and enjoy comforting foods that nourish both body and spirit.

As the air gets cooler and drier, balance your plate with:
🥣 Warming foods – soups, stews, and spices like cinnamon and turmeric
🍐 Moistening foods – pears, tofu, spinach, almonds
🍋 Sour foods – citrus, sauerkraut, vinegar

These choices support your lungs and digestion — keeping you healthy and grounded throughout the season.

Fall is here — and for many, it means busier days with school, work, and packed schedules. 🍂

But even during this busy season, a few simple habits can help you stay healthy and balanced:
🌬️ Take a few deep breaths when you feel stressed
💧 Keep a water bottle handy to stay hydrated
😴 Don’t skimp on rest — your body needs recovery time
🧣 Dress for the season (scarves help protect your lungs in TCM!)

Wellness doesn’t have to be complicated — it’s about finding small ways to support yourself, even on busy days.
