Ready to help strengthen your body's natural defenses for the season? Here are three simple tips inspired by the wisdom of Chinese Medicine:
1️⃣ Eat Warming Foods: Support your digestive and lung health by incorporating nourishing, cooked foods. Think hearty soups, roasted squash and sweet potatoes, and spices like ginger, cinnamon, and garlic.
2️⃣ Prioritize Rest: As the days get shorter, our bodies naturally crave more rest. According to Chinese Medicine, Yin energy helps to nourish our body at night. This helps to regulate and restore our balance during the day. Aiming for a consistent bedtime is important.
3️⃣ Protect Your Windgate: The windgate is the area at the base of the back of your neck. According to Chinese Medicine, protecting this area from the cold can help prevent imbalances that we face during the winter months. Protect yourself by wearing a scarf to stay warm.
