Aligning with springtime in your body + mind with herbs, foods and other practices {episode medley}

Click here to send me a quick message :) It"s officially springtime in the northern hemisphere, so you may be wondering what you can do to support yourself in this transitional time.  Honestly, were all facing so much collective instability right now, even if you aren"t usually one to do a "spring cleanse" you may be feeling a little more interest in finding ways to simplify and release some of the accumulation from the past few months.  Physically, mentally or emotionally.  In this week"s episode we return to the rich wisdom of three previously released episodes oriented to traditional seasonal wisdom: First, I share about the qualities of this spring season, what to look out for, different movement practices and some foods to consider incorporating (or omitting).  Next, we hear from longtime herbalist Kelley Riviere about her favorite ways to work *with* the body"s natural detoxification processes using lymphatic herbs and other seasonally abundant plants. And finally, I end with a glimpse into some ways you might consider working with these plants - whether in vinegars, food preparations, or as medicines.  You"ll get quick glimpses into the importance of warming, pungent tastes at this time, alongside bitters. Herbs mentioned include dandelion, burdock, cleavers, chickweed, nettles, yellow dock, violet and more!
