For a spring cleanse, you can try a half cup of dandelion leaf tea, drink at room temperature once or twice per day, at least an hour separate from food. Dandelion leaf can clear sluggishness and toxins from the wood organ systems.

Autum greetings. A flower tea that is especially fortifying for the lungs from a Chinese medicine perspective is WHITE chrysanthemum tea; alignned with the color association of the Metal element, white. A cup of 3 flowers of the white chrysanthemum with honey is a supportive tea for the lungs during the autumn season. The “ Pearl Petal” as the white chrysanthemum is poetically described is elegant, abundant, and hearty. The chrysanthemum flower can survive harsh weather when all other flowers fade with the cooler temperatures.

Autumn is a time to take extra care of the respiratory system. In NYC the steam heat in apartments, while a welcome respite from the chillier weather also creates dryness in the environment that can result in respiratory discomfort; for this, humidifiers are a great help. To keep the mucosal lining of the lungs lubricated it is helpful to keep the water intake high and as much as possible reduce iced drinks. It is a great time of year to reintroduce warming teas to the liquid intake: some helpful tea examples are chai spice, ginger, red rooibos, and spicy turmeric blend. Many of these blends are readily available in stores but if you like to order from the internet some reliable websites are: Divinitea: NY, Bellocq Tea: NY, Silk Road Teas, and Mountain Rose herbals both in CA.

Dear Friends,
Autumn greetings, I hope you are staying warm and getting your wei qi ready to manage the cooler months. Drink your ginger tea, chai tea, tulsi tea and add ashwaganda for an adaptogen support.

Summer is a good time to drink green tea, or green rooibos tea. They are cooler energetically than black tea or coffee and have antioxidant qualities. If you like your tea flavored, in the summer fruits, like mango or strawberry can be both enjoyable and cooling and add some intrigue to your tea. You can drink the teas cool but not too much ice, this will create a further incidence of temperature deregulation in the body. Hibiscus tea is another good summer option, especially if you feel some strain with your heart or emotions.

Nature inspires us with its constant regeneration, consider bringing a fresh new green plant into the home to symbolize new growth and new opportunities.

For those interested in geomancy and the art of placement, we can reference the 9 star moving qi system for the year of 2022. It is suggested to adjust the southwest corner of the home, this extends to the yard or full property lines.

A way to work with this is to place a talisman that you feel is protective in the southwest area, in some systems this is represented by the Hulu or gourd. A Hulu traps negative energy and recycles it to bring positive energy to the area.

The southwest corner is important this year, according to this system, because it can negatively impact vibrant health and since our work together is about supporting health and the potential for
healing, if there is a challenge in that area of life, it might be helpful to adjust the corner. If geomancy interests you, try to keep the southwest area clean, clear, low on noise and minimize the colors in the red spectrum.

I send greetings on this auspicious weekend, where many spiritual convergences will occur. These are the observances that I know of this weekend: the Full Moon, Passover, Easter Sunday, Palm Sunday, Hanuman Jayanti, and the continuance of the observation of Ramadan.

If we take advantage of the convergences and each send a positive, healing intention it has the potential to reach those that are suffering and offer a salve for hope and in that same gesture also reach those that are imposing their destructive wills on other lives and encourage a shift in consciousness.

John Coltrane, the iconic saxophonist and composer said: "One positive thought produces millions of positive vibrations".

Enjoy your holiday. Wishing you, your family, and those you love, vibrant health and thriving lives.

Spring is a good time to clear the liver/gallbladder, a simple way to begin the process is by adding fresh squeezed lemon to room temperature water and drinking a half cup of the lemon water a few times a day. Green tea is a good antioxidant, you can add this as an afternoon beverage.
If you feel you need a deeper cleanse, you can try a half cup of dandelion tea, drink at room temperature, dandelion can clear sluggishness from the wood organ systems.
Another tea to try in spring is lemon verbena. Lemon verbena is especially nice if you are feeling restless, anxious, or nervous. It can also be helpful if your stomach is feeling uncomfortable from emotions or stresses in life that may result in acidic reflux or a mild burning feeling.
I do not suggest bringing the water to a high boil for either of these teas because it can scorch the herbs. Also, the liver& gallbladder are typically a bit warm when imbalanced, to add heat to a tea that we are using to direct to those organs can increase irritation and maybe encourage sweating, which is not required for the suggestions I have made in terms of gentle clearing of the liver & gallbladder. Steep tea at warm water temperature for 10-15 minutes and drink at room temperature.

I saw my first crocus in Morningside Park today. The sunlight is lasting well past 5pm. Spring is beginning to peek through!
