Seasonal Wisdom for Autumn
In Eastern Medicine, specifically the Tao, autumn is the season of the Lungs and Large Intestine.
These are organs that remind us of the importance of both taking in and letting go. Just as the trees release their leaves, our bodies and minds are called to release what no longer serves us.
The autumn is the time to:
* Strengthen your immune system.
* Support healthy digestion and elimination.
* Breathe deeply, reflect, and embrace simplicity.
Some practical steps for you to take are:
* Eat Warm, nourishing foods (ie. soups, root vegetables, pears)
* Practice mindful breathing + Qi Gong.
* Drink herbal teas that protect Lung health like fresh ginger.
* Make time for regular movement to keep circulation flowing.
When we live in harmony with the seasons, we give our bodies the chance to thrive naturally. We do this one season at a time.
