Welcoming November’s Energy

As the air turns crisp and the days grow shorter, nature invites us to slow down and turn inward.
In Chinese medicine, autumn relates to the Lung, the organ that helps us take in inspiration and let go of what we no longer need.
Take a few mindful breaths today. With every exhale, release something that no longer serves you. 🌬️
