| Fall 🍂 The Metal Element |
| When I think metal, I think of a sword. Strong enough to fulfill it’s purpose, but not so rigid it snaps. The Metal Element and time of year naturally prescribes structure and routine. Getting back to basics (or business). Some of us may describe Fall as a reset. Kind of like the New Year. Fall also calls upon us a certain flexibility and ease to be able to let go of our metaphorical leaves. Metal, Fall Season relates to our Lungs and Large Intestine. A very fundamental Yin and Yang, In and Out, with our breath and with our food. A process of receiving and eliminating. Breathing in…breathing out. Have you ever tried explaining Taoism ☯️ to your 16 yr old teenager? Living in harmony with the seasons? I think I lost him somewhere around asking him to go ” with” nature. His inertia (lazyness) was getting the best of him this morning. Getting up in the morning can feel a little heavy in the Fall compared to warm and bright Summer mornings 🌄 I think I was resisting Fall myself, as I love the warm summers and lake swims. Here are some sweet Fall affirmations that may help you get out of bed in the morning 😉 Breathing In, I Soften Breathing Out, I Soften I Breath In Clarity I Breath Out Resistance As I Let Go I Find Peace I Embrace The Beauty of Fall As I Am Reminded of My Own Beauty I Am Grounded On This Earth As I Watch Nature’s Transformation Here’s to flowing with the seasons and feeling good! I’m in clinic Monday, Wednesday, Friday, if any of you want to feel a bit more ease and harmony. Acupuncture and body work can be a great way to let go! I’ll see you soon. Happy Fall 🍁🌾🍂Gigi |
