The weather is changing, as you may have felt in the past few days. While the sun is still out during the day, a chill has crept into the morning and evening air. Summer has been beautiful this past August, but it’s coming to an end. As the weather starts to morph into fall, it will influence our bodies and minds. We are entering a quieter, more introspective time as the sun wanes, and many of us are prone to experience the blues.

Help armor yourself against the end-of-summer blues with some good self-care. Acupuncture is a great tool for treating the emotional letdown of summer’s end, as well as any aches and pains brought on by the chillier weather. These also benefit from cupping or guasha,which can both help you relax deep, hidden tension, especially when paired with some tuina. And some warm, toasty moxa will feel really good when you start to feel fall’s chill!
