Snow and freezing rain can be themes of February, but there is no dispute that the days are getting brighter and longer. The frozen ground in some parts of the country is beginning to thaw. Some winter blooms are beginning to appear. As we pass the Chinese lunar new year, spring is emerging ever so slowly.
How do we navigate the continuing cold while the spring emerges? How do we protect our inner warmth while preparing ourselves to meet the uprising energy of spring just five weeks away?
Join me once again to explore transition and how to thrive in this period in which we move from the hibernation of winter towards emergence in spring. We want to be ready, warm, protected and able to partake when spring comes remaining healthy and vital.
This class includes:
An overview of the changing season through the lens of Chinese medicine and its impact on our health
Recommended foods and ways of cooking for navigating the change from winter to spring.. Seasonal recipes are referenced from her book.
Activities to support health and balance in each season
Common health challenges in each season and how to minimize them
Time for questions and answers
A copy of the recorded session + note transcript of the class
This class can be taken on its own or as part of a seasonal series. (See dates below) To purchase the entire series (with replays), please contact Ellen directly at: elleng@pearlnaturalhealth.com
