Finding Balance As Summer Turns To Fall
I want to take this opportunity to wish you all a prosperous and healthy fall season. For many the adjustment from Summer to Fall is the most difficult of all seasonal transitions and requires a little more focus to make the transition gracefully. Dietary adjustments such as decreasing raw foods like summer fruits, salads, fresh juices and cold beverages and increasing consumption of root vegetables like sweet potatos, carrots and beets, hot soups and seasonal fruits like apples, figs and pears can help keep us in balance.
The immune system comes under more stress as we shift to colder, wetter weather and less sunshine and light, I recommend including an immune tonic mushroom in your wellness routine to keep the immune system at peak performance. I especially like Mushroom Science's high quality products for this purpose which can be found at Super Supplements. Astragalus is another useful herb for this purpose.
Aspiring to find balance between work and family, city and nature, excitement and relaxation, exercise and stillness will help you find grace throughout the year. Acupuncture is a great way to boost your immune response and make a graceful transition between the seasons. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure as the saying goes.
