November Wisdom in Chinese Medicine
As we move into November, nature invites us to slow down.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, this is the season of the Water element, linked to the Kidneys and Bladder the organs of reserves, reflection and renewal.
Just as rivers quiet and sap sinks to the roots, this is a time to turn inward, rest and nourish your energy for the months ahead.
Seasonal tips:
Rest deeply early nights and slower mornings restore Kidney Qi.
Keep warm especially your lower back and feet.
Incorporate foot bathing into your evening ritual.
Favour warming, dark foods: black sesame, walnuts, miso, kidney beans, seaweed and bone broth.
Gentle movement Qi Gong, yoga or peaceful walks by water help restore calm.
Reflect not from fear, but from trust. In stillness, wisdom surfaces.
Acupuncture to restore balance and harmony
Affirmation:
“I rest to renew my strength. In stillness, I remember who I am.”
Let November be your month of quiet restoration a time to honour stillness, gather strength and listen to the wisdom within.
