Fall, Vata, is the queen of change! It is is the time of year to slow down and fall back! The days are getting shorter, animals are preparing to migrate or hibernate, and trees are shedding leaves. The season represents the harvest time of year, a time to acknowledge growth and expansion as a natural evolution of our spirits and soul! However, fall is also a season of depletion that harbors a certain emptiness that can leave us feeling vulnerable and exposed. This is because the vata energy of fall is cool, dry, light, windy and rough; making it an an ideal time to go inwards to detox the mind, body, spirit and soul stripping down to a quiet essence of our being and savor the simplicity of our authenticity!
A detox is an easy way to buffer your health and protect your well-being during the fall season! As the nights get longer, it gets colder, and the qualities of dryness, constriction, and roughness increase in nature and in our system, the efficacy of our immune system reduces, our emotional and mental state shifts, energetically we have a tendency to slow down. We also are more likely to isolate/hibernate, slowing down our social interactions.
Doing a detox during this time helps to strengthens us so that we can combat colds, allergies, digestive disturbances, and weight gain, as well as energetically, emotional and mental imbalances. It can also help to create a deep nourishment, loving relationships, and a sense of stability, routine, and groundedness.
Finally, a detox as is an investment in our health, wellness and vitality. And while the specifics of the detox will vary from one person to person based on the individual body type and lifestyle, aligning ourselves with the rhythms of nature throughout the year will help to keep us in balance and living in the spirit of harmony, stability, humility, and gratitude.
