✨ Did you know that what you eat can be influenced by the seasons? 🍂
In Chinese medicine, seasonal eating is key for keeping balance and harmony in our bodies. Each season brings foods that not only taste delicious but also support our health in unique ways.
As the leaves turn golden and the air grows crisp, it’s the perfect time to welcome autumn’s ingredients. Hearty root vegetables, warming spices, and nourishing soups or teas. These foods help strengthen our Lung, Digestion and immune system, gently warming the body and preparing us for the colder months ahead. 🌬️
Here are two simple recipes to try this season:
🍲 Warming Chicken Broth
Simmer chicken pieces with 50g sliced ginger, spring onion, shiitake mushrooms, and goji berries for 40–50 minutes. Season lightly and enjoy a soothing, digestion-tonifying soup.
🥬 Comforting Perilla Leaves Tea
Chop 4-5 fresh perilla leaves, place them in a cup, and pour over hot water. Cover and steep for 10 minutes, then sip slowly to enjoy its gentle warmth.
Seasonal foods don’t just taste better — they also enhance your acupuncture and wellness journey by supporting your body’s natural rhythms. 🌱💚
