Autumn in TCM ~
Autumn in TCM is the Metal season, highlighting Lung and Large Intestine health, inward consolidation and letting go. Perfect as we move from Sydney’s summer warmth into cooler, drier days.
4 Practical Ways to begin to adjust with Autumn:
1. Moisturise from within ~ think warm pears/apples with honey, congee and black sesame powder or seeds to nourish dry Lungs and moisten the bowels.
2. Layer lightly ~ protect the neck and chest for cool mornings, peel off for warmer afternoons.
3. Slow your rhythm ~ earlier bedtimes, slower mornings, swap the HITT for walks & yoga.
4. Protect with pungent flavours ~ including ginger/garlic/spring onion in meals to open Lungs and clear Summer remnants 🍂
