Otis vs. Winter: The Wind-Bum Chronicles

Otis is my little dude.
And as you can tell by his look, he has no time for this season.

Cold floors? Offensive.
Wind on the bum? A hard pass.
Outside to p*e? How dare you.
Blanket life? Non-negotiable.
Snacks in bed? Yes, please.

He’s not angry — just deeply disappointed by the weather forecast.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, winter is all about slowing down, storing energy, and protecting your warmth. It’s Kidney season, and Otis is fully living the lifestyle.

If winter’s got you feeling stiff, tired, or just low on spark, acupuncture can help restore warmth, flow, and ease — no judgment if you show up wrapped in your own blanket. Take it from Otis: blankets rule this time of year.

Otis says:
Protect your cheeks (all four in his case when out),
protect your Qi,
and take the snacks when they come.

It’s cold out there. Be like Otis: stay soft, stay warm, stay fed.
