If the New Moon is for planting seeds, the Full Moon is for illumination and action. This is a time to witness what’s been growing, bring awareness to what’s ready to be released, and take powerful steps towards your dreams.

Write it down.
Spell it out.
Say it out loud.
Tell it to your peeps.

What are your dreams, what actions are you going to take, and how are you going to enjoy the process of tending what’s growing?

Happy Full Moon!

The green be poppin’, daffodils bloomin’, temperatures bumpin’, and the wind blowin’.

If your sinuses feel stuffy, your eyes watering and itchy, your skin red and dry, your energy wonky, your emotions restless or stuck… you are not alone!

🌸🪵Spring is in the air, and so is allergy season and the Wood element phase! 🪵🌸

There are some things you can do for yourself to help navigate this time if it’s feeling a little crunchy, stagnant, spikey, or stuffy.

Here are a few of our favorites - see what resonates:
⁠
🌟Get acupuncture! ⁠📍
You knew we were going to say that. 😂 Acupuncture can both prevent seasonal allergies and help manage annoying allergy symptoms if they've already started. Whether you're dealing with post nasal drip, itchy eyes, or overall excess inflammation - acupuncture can help.⁠
⁠
And it's backed by science. A study in the European Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology showed that acupuncture was effective at reducing allergy symptoms with no side effects.

⁠🌟Get craniosacral therapy! 💆
Not only is this modality great for settling your nervous system during times of change and transition (or really, anytime!), the various head holds and tissue work of the head and face can be so soothing to the sinuses and can create more space and ease in your brain.
⁠
🌟Take a probiotic 💊⁠
Seasonal allergies are an excess immune reaction, and a portion of your immunity is regulated by the nerves in your gut, so gut health is essential for a balanced immune response. Choose a probiotic with multiple strains, and start taking the probiotic a month in advance of anticipated allergy symptoms if you can. ⁠But better late than never, so starting now is always a good time.
⁠
🌟Sip on nettle leaf tea 🫖⁠
Stinging nettle can help reduce the amount of histamine in your body, which is the cause of allergy symptoms. While you could go out foraging this time of year, lucky for you nettle is often sold as a loose leaf tea or supplement. Our favorite blend has nettle, quercetin, bromelain, NAC, and vitamin C that blends the antihistamine properties of nettle with the anti-inflammatory properties of quercetin for great seasonal allergy relief. ⁠
⁠
🌟Take a shot of fire cider 🔥⁠
Fire Cider has been a traditionally home-made healing tonic for many decades in herbalist kitchens. Along with preventing and treating colds and flus, it works wonders at clearing out stuffy sinuses. Never made a batch before? We have a super easy DIY recipe for fire cider in our Sinus & Cold Care e-book! https://www.constellationacu.com/shop

Breathwork is getting COSMIC! ✨🌙✨We are trying a new format for the Breathwork + Writing classes at the Constellation Classroom and bringing opportunities to breathe twice a month around the new and full moons.

Here are the deets and the dates!:

🌝FULL MOON BREATHWORK + TAROT CIRCLE
Gather under the expansive energy of the Full Moon to breathe, release, and realign - tapping into clarity, insight, and a little bit of magic with Amy Kuretsky, L.Ac.

Full Moons are for illumination and action, so this is a time to witness what’s been growing, bring awareness to what’s ready to be released, and take powerful steps towards your dreams.

In the expanded state of awareness that comes from the breathing practice, insight can arise more freely - helping you see your path with greater clarity. Energetic potential is also heightened, which helps you bring focused direction towards your goals and dreams.

When breathwork is paired with the magic of the Full Moon and the intuitive lens of tarot, this practice can feel both grounding and expansive. You’re invited to take what resonates, notice what arises, and integrate these insights in a way that feels supportive to you.

This 90-min event will be split into four parts:
⭐Introduction, guided grounding, and affirmation cards
⭐Laying down for gently guided breathwork with music
⭐Re-grounding, tarot/oracle card pulls, and journaling
⭐Collective tarot reading, and optional sharing, witnessing, and asking questions

Upcoming dates:
Fri 5/1 at 7pm
Thurs 6/4 at 7pm
Tues 6/30 at 7pm
Wed 7/29 at 7pm
Fri 8/28 at 7pm

🌚NEW MOON BREATHWORK + INTENTION SETTING
Steep yourself in the sweet energy of renewal, setting intentions and breathing with the New Moon with Shannon Schueler.

New Moons are for planting seeds and intention setting is a powerful way to guide how we show up in the world. We influence the deepest parts of ourselves when tuned into our intentions.

Breathwork gives the thinking mind permission to rest as the wisdom of the body emerges. This innate wisdom creates fertile ground in the consciousness for intentions to be seeded, take root, and grow.

This 90-min event will be split into four parts:
⭐Introduction, guided grounding, and intentions
⭐Laying down for gently guided breathwork with music
⭐Re-grounding and journaling (optional intention-related prompt provided)
⭐Optional sharing, witnessing, and asking questions

Upcoming dates:
Wed 5/13 at 7pm
Wed 6/17 at 7pm
Wed 7/15 at 7pm
Wed 8/12 at 7pm

About your guides:
Amy and Shannon have both been trained through accredited programs of the Global Professional Breathwork Alliance and both Full Moon and New Moon groups are facilitated in a trauma-informed approach. Each breather is invited to participate at the level that feels most supportive to them.

When you work with bodies (like we do!), it’s easy to remember that Earth Day is every day. We’ve got water inside us like oceans, tears that run like rivers, lungs that look like tree branches, bones made of minerals, and iron in our blood. We have an energetic electricity to our system like lightening and a spirit made of star stuff. We are a constellation of earthy, magical parts and how lucky are we to call this planet home. Healing happens here! Happy Earth Day! 🌱✨🕸️💙

What are we loving these days? SPROUT LIVING PROTEIN POWDER!!

With the weather getting warmer and the daylight staying longer, we are excited to get back to our outdoor activities. And sometimes more movement and extracurriculars means making sure we are fueling ourselves with good quality sources of protein.

Enter Sprout Living protein powder: an accessible, plant-based, simple ingredient product to take the guesswork and the mental load off the table so we can get busy living!

Why we like these:
☑️the pumpkin seed and sunflower seed powders are single ingredient products and do not contain pea protein, which can be a challenge for some folks to digest
☑️they can be easily added to smoothies, baked goods, or oatmeal
☑️the cold-pressed seed protein powders can help supplement gaps between meals for folks who need help in reaching their ideal gram of protein per day or for those choosing to not eat animal products

Here’s a delish recipe to try:

🍌Amy's favorite smoothie recipe 🍌
1 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
1 handful of chopped kale (or other mild flavor greens)
1 serving of Sprout Living pumpkin or sunflower seed protein powder
1 serving of peanut butter powder (or nut butter of choice)
1 tsp of cocoa powder
1 banana
optional: a scoop or two of unflavored collagen powder

Mix all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth!

This smoothie tastes like a treat and has between 30-40g of protein in it, depending on if you include the collagen powder.

🔥Acu Hot Tip: to support your digestive fire, we suggest drinking the smoothie at room temperature, and CHEW each sip of smoothie just like you would chew a solid food - because even though it’s blended, it’s still a bunch of solid foods! Chewing the smoothie will help queue your digestive system to produce the enzymes and acids it needs to actually break it down. As Kim says - if you drink a smoothie like it’s water, it’s like throwing a ball at someone who isn’t ready to catch it!

Interested in trying these products? We have them at the clinic in the retail section of our lobby! Happy to answer any questions!

Feeling restless? As the upward, vibrant energy of spring builds in nature, it builds within our bodies too - and can make us feel like we want to crawl out of our skin!

If you’ve felt a little “stuck”, irritable, tense, restless, headachy, or had weirder than usual dreams, it’s a sign your energy needs movement.

Ways to gently move stuck energy are……

✨walking
✨dancing
✨qigong
✨creative activities
✨working with your hands
✨talking or writing about what might be on your mind
✨drinking mint or spearmint tea
✨acupuncture
✨breathwork

What’s your favorite way to move your energy? What would you add to the list?

📷: our monstera beauty in room 5 at the clinic!

04/09/2026

Between colds and the start of season allergies, our clinic has been seeing a lot of patients with sinus pressure and pain recently! Lucky for them, acupuncture is amazing at clearing up congestion and sinus pressure.

Self applied acupressure is also an amazing tool for self-care, and works wonderfully for sinus symptoms!

Stimulating specific acupoints can help to reduce your symptoms and support your body to promote increased comfort and improved healing.

Acupoints for sinus pain and pressure: Located over the sinuses, Yintang (aka the “Third Eye Point”) and Urinary Bladder 2 are treasured for being able to open the nose and sinuses, reduce eye pressure and pain, and alleviate headaches.

These two are also super calming, which is helpful if your sinus problems are making you a little irritable. Together, these points form a line between the inner edges of the eyebrow, over the frontal sinus.

HOW TO LOCATE THESE POINTS:
Yintang: located in between the inner edges of the two eyebrows, on the midline of the face.

UB-2: located at the inner edge of each of the two eyebrows, at the small notch/groove on the browbones.

HOW TO PERFORM ACUPRESSURE FOR THESE POINTS:
▪️When applying stimulation to the acupoints you can use your thumb or pointer finger to press on them.
▪️The point can be gently massaged in a circular motion for 2 to 3 minutes, several times daily.
▪️You can also use the pads of your fingers to massage from point yintang, over to Urinary Bladder 2, and over your entire brow bone!
▪️Be sure to do this on both the right and left sides of the body, either one at a time, or at the same time.
▪️Combine with deep breathing and visualization for an extra healing boost.
