Fall Lessons For Mental Health

“Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.” ~ Lao Tzu

We can learn a lot from the seasons. According to the Five Elements Theory, which derives from Traditional Chinese Medicine, each season has its own energetic dynamic and movement of energy or Qi. 

For my ladies out there, if you’ve ever tried to understand your menstrual cycle on a deeper level this is the same idea. We just experience these four main seasons monthly as opposed to annually!

The more we can surrender and lean into these seasonal cycles, the more we can harness their power as opposed to fighting to keep the rigid schedule that once served us at a point in time.

Fall is a season of shedding layers, looking inward, and fostering inner reserves so we can leap to our next level.

After the expansive and lively energy of summer, nature is now constricting its energy and moving inward to nourish its roots. 

As much as our human brain and society likes to make us think we are separate from nature, we are built from the same fundamental building blocks and thus are affected by these changes as well.
