And just like that ...
We are into the season of Fall.
Not only is Fall the season of giving thanks — it is also the season of Letting Go.
How do we continue to incorporate life changes alongside seasonal changes?
One way to navigate the seasons is through food + life-style choices.
Ayurveda — India's ancient medical science, rooted in holistic wellness practices — recommends alleviating the drying winds of autumn (which can incite restlessness + anxiety) with grounding qualities that are warm + moist.
