Herbal allies for Fall 🍂🌿
As the seasons shift and the air cools, our bodies naturally begin turning inward—slowing down, seeking warmth, and preparing for the more introspective rhythm of autumn.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Fall is associated with the Lungs and Large Intestine, and with themes of release, protection, and grief. It’s a beautiful time to support your immune system, nourish your respiratory health, and gently let go of what no longer serves.
Here are a few of our favourite herbal friends for this season:
• Astragalus – deeply supportive for immunity and Qi, especially in the early stages of cold weather
• Mullein – soothing and moistening for the lungs and dry coughs
• Elecampane – clearing, grounding, and helpful for deep chest congestion
• Thyme – warming and antimicrobial, perfect in teas or steams
• Licorice Root – harmonizing, moistening, and adrenal-supportive (use with guidance if you have high blood pressure)
• Marshmallow Root – gentle and cooling, great for dry tissues and intestinal comfort
• Reishi – the Queen of Mushrooms: immune-modulating, calming, and supportive for grief
Herbs can be used in teas, tinctures, steams, and infused oils—but it’s always best to work with a practitioner to find what’s right for your body.
