Feng Shui for autumn is all about a gentle transition from the active and fiery summer season to a slow, wet and inward moving time. There is a change in nature now. The new season, autumn is representing a passive period as it is opposite to the activity of the summer. The days are getting shorter, the sunlight is getting weaker. So this change in the energy requires a change in our lifestyle as well.
Do you know how to accommodate yourself to the changes in nature? Do you know how to balance the autumn season?
The Chinese medicine tells us to pay attention especially to our diet and sleep now.
Sleep
Just enough sleep is very important for all of us to be energetic and healthy. The best way to get enough sleep in autumn is to go to bed early and to get up a bit later than in summertime.
Diet
Chinese wisdom advices us to eat less spicy and salty food in autumn. Eat more seasonal food as always: pumpkin, grapes, apples, pears, blueberries, potatoes. Use the local organic produce and not the imported vegetables or fruits.
The type of Chi is receiving Chi in autumn.
This means the time of the harvesting and preparing preserves and wine for the winter. Slow down, relax and preserve the Chi for the winter.
Clean up the leaves
If we let dead leaves stay too long in our garden they will begin to rot and stink. The same is true with other things in our lives. Get rid of things that no longer serve a purpose in your life and clean up the ground for new growth. Dust, clean out closets and get rid of the clutter that is blocking new energy from arriving.
Clutter clearing
Clear and clean up the space around the front door, inside and outside. Make the doorway free.
Create new energy
Open your windows occasionally during the cooler fall months to let in some fresh air and positive chi.
Allow as much natural light as possible into your home through the window.
Warm Up Your Body
Drink warm teas, eat warm soups and casseroles as well.
