The winds of change are rolling through the mountains. Its this time of year when we are starting to shift into a full-time mode, harvest and a time of 'gathering' on many levels...
When care is taken to stay healthy and balance through the transition of seasonal change, it is easier to feel and be healthier throughout the entirety of the coming season.
Now, with more and less predictable wind and chill in the air, keeping yourself covered helps the body adapt. Neck scarf's are a must!! along with more warming foods, resting to balance exertion and of course deep sleep. In studies done on sleep deprivation, the first thing that falls of the wagon is immune system functioning. This may also play a role for allergies... Bottom line, the healthier you keep yourself through this fall seasonal change, the smoother your winter will be.
