As we head into the change of seasons, it is important to take extra care of ourselves. The flux from hot and moist to dry and cold is a stressor for the body, and many healing traditions have special rituals and foods to help support the immune system through these transition periods.
As the light slowly grows darker each night, we are reminded of an important daily ritual to double down on: sleep. Lack of sleep has been shown in clinical studies to increases the risk of colds by 350%! If sleep is an issue for you, know that this is an important symptom to address for overall health and wellbeing. And don’t forget to provide space in your busy schedule to acknowledge and reflect at this subtle yet profound transition.
