Flu & the Four Temperaments 🌿

“Each temperament reacts differently to seasonal flu.
Phlegmatic: congestion & lethargy → warming teas & walks in nature.
Choleric: high fever & dehydration → fresh juices & light, hydrating diet.
Sanguine: heat & humidity → cooling teas, rose water, calming scents.
Melancholic: cold & dryness → warming broths, gentle spices, creative activities.

Every temperament has its ideal plants. Reach out to explore yours and nurture your body and soul.”

Flu and the melancholic temperament
The melancholic temperament, dominated by cold and dryness, can make the body feel weary and the mind heavy. Ancient wisdom from Hippocrates, Galen & Avicenna teaches us to balance these extremes with warmth, nourishment, and gentle care.

Practical tips:
Warm broths and vegetable soups with gentle spices like coriander and anise, warm Lavender oil compresses, and licorice decoctions help restore strength. Herbal teas with Melissa & anise, and jasmine essential oil, calm the mind and nurture the soul. Engage in artistic activities to lift your spirits and strengthen your immune system.

💡 Remember: “Wounds of the soul may one day show upon the body.”

Supporting Your Mood in Autumn – MTM Insights 🍂

In Traditional Mediterranean Medicine, autumn corresponds to the Earth element: everything cools and contracts.

It’s natural to feel like staying cozy at home, but it’s important to keep moving:

Dedicate at least one hour a day to a walk, workout, yoga, or Qi Gong

Read, slow down your pace, but not too much

Rest and embrace the gentler rhythm of the season 🌿

Balance your body and mind by following autumn’s natural flow.

Phlegmatic Imbalance 🌿
For those who joined our recent Mediterranean Medicine workshop, you know the theory of the temperaments—but here, we go a step further.
We combine ancient wisdom with practical remedies: warming teas, thyme decoctions, honey, and the simple power of movement in nature.
A small, curious community is beginning to discover and practice these insights together. ✨

Which remedy will you try first?”
