FALL : LET GO FOR YOUR HEALTH’S SAKE

by | Dec 13, 2018 | Excelify, Fall

According to Chinese medicine, the best way to stay healthy during a particular season is to learn about its nature and to live in harmony with its character and spirit.

The Fall is when nature slows down and plants and animals prepare to rest.

The fall is associated with the metal element within each one of us.

This element gives awareness of our sense of self worth…to practice more self care and self love.

This season helps us focus on our internal mental and emotional health, wellness, and development instead of seeking value externally…like money, status, etc.

Emotionally the fall is linked to the lungs. Healthy lung energy helps the body:

  • Clear thinking and communication
  • Positive self image
  • Openness to new ideas
  • Ability to relax and LET GO

If the lungs become imbalanced you can experience grief and difficulty in LETTING GO, which can then lead to constant sadness and depression.

Following the spirit of the season by practicing self care and love, encourages the body to restore lung energy, let go, relax, and open up to new opportunities.

Follow the spirit of the season. These steps are simple but they do encourage your body to fit within the seasonal change.

  • Sleep a little more
  • Sit by a fire
  • Eat warm, nourishing foods (soups, hearty, nothing too cold)
  • Reflect Inward
  • Breathe Deeply
  • Let go of negativity…cry it out
  • Walk outside
  • Organize, declutter, and set boundaries

Friends, let go of the old to set place for the new. Happy Fall!
