🍂 Late Autumn in TCM: Protect Your Lungs & Nourish Yin

October 18 falls between Cold Dew (Han Lu) and Frost’s Descent (Shuang Jiang) in the traditional Chinese solar calendar. As temperatures drop and the air becomes cooler and drier, dry coughs, throat irritation, nasal allergies, and dry skin may become more noticeable.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), autumn dryness is associated with the Lung system, which governs respiration and relates to the skin. Nourishing Yin, supporting Lung Qi, and preserving body fluids are key principles of seasonal wellness.

🌿 Classical Herbal Formulas

• Qing Zao Jiu Fei Tang (清燥救肺湯): Traditionally used for patterns of Lung dryness, including dry cough and throat irritation.

• Zhi Gan Cao Tang (炙甘草湯): Traditionally used for patterns involving Qi and Yin deficiency, palpitations, and an irregular pulse.

• Gui Zhi Jia Hou Po Xing Zi Tang (桂枝加厚朴杏子湯): Considered for certain patterns involving cold-related cough and wheezing.

• Ling Gui Zhu Gan Tang (苓桂朮甘湯): Traditionally used for patterns involving fluid accumulation, dizziness, and Yang deficiency.

Formula selection depends on individual pattern differentiation. These formulas are not interchangeable.

🍐 Late-Autumn Wellness Tips

🥣 Nourish with pears, white fungus (snow fungus), lily bulbs, and Chinese yam as part of a balanced diet.

💧 Stay hydrated to help maintain normal hydration in dry weather.

🧣 Dress in layers, especially during chilly mornings and evenings.

🌶️ Reduce spicy foods if they aggravate your cough or throat irritation.

🍵 Enjoy warm meals and drinks as temperatures fall.

✨ A TCM Reminder

Seasonal wellness is not one-size-fits-all. Treatment depends on your symptoms, constitution, and overall pattern. Consult a qualified practitioner before using herbal formulas. Palpitations, irregular heartbeat, and persistent breathing problems require medical evaluation.

🍂 Hello, October! A New Season Is Here.

As the mornings get cooler and the air becomes drier, October is a great time to slow down and give your body a little extra care.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), autumn is associated with dryness and the Lung system. The transition into cooler weather is traditionally viewed as a time to protect our warmth, nourish fluids, and adapt to seasonal changes.

🌿 A few simple ways to welcome fall:
🍵 Choose warm drinks
Enjoy warm tea, soups, and nourishing meals as the weather cools.
🍐 Add seasonal, nourishing foods
Pear, lily bulb, white fungus (snow fungus), okra, and lotus seeds are traditionally enjoyed in TCM food therapy during the drier months.
🧥 Dress for the changing temperatures
Layer up and keep your neck and upper body comfortably warm, especially in the morning and evening.
🌶️ Be mindful of very spicy foods
If your throat feels dry or irritated, you may want to go a little easier on heavily spiced or pepper-heavy foods.

🌿 A TCM Perspective on Herbal Formulas
Classical formulas such as Zhi Gan Cao Tang (炙甘草湯) and Qing Zao Jiu Fei Tang (清燥救肺湯) have traditional uses within Chinese medicine.

But in TCM, the same symptom does not necessarily mean the same formula. Herbal recommendations are based on an individual's constitution, symptoms, and pattern differentiation.

Always consult a qualified TCM practitioner before taking Chinese herbal formulas, especially if you take medications or have an existing health condition.

🍁 Fall is a wonderful reminder to slow down, stay warm, nourish yourself, and move with the season.

Rewriting Prescriptions with Needles: Classical Approaches Reimagined

👨‍⚕️ Presented by Cody Fang, MD

This webinar explores acupuncture through the academic and clinical framework of Professor Xiongzhi Wu (吳雄志教授) of Taihu Academy. We will examine how classical Chinese medicine theories can be reinterpreted and applied to practical acupuncture treatment.

The course will focus on the theory of Open, Close, and Pivot (開、闔、樞) and how this framework can inform acupuncture strategies. We will also explore acupuncture through three interconnected dimensions:

FORM 形 — Fascia · Structure · Tissue
QI 氣 — Deqi · Conduction · Circulation
SHEN 神 — Nervous System · Brain State · Mind

Through clinical discussion and case analysis, Dr. Fang will demonstrate how classical theories can be translated into practical acupuncture treatment strategies.

🌿 ALLERGIC RHINITIS IS NOT ONE PATTERN
Stop treating every runny nose the same.

In the clinical framework of Dr. Zhang Bu-Tao (張步桃), allergic rhinitis should be differentiated by Cold, Heat, Deficiency, and Excess patterns.

❄️ COLD PATTERN | Clear, Watery Discharge
• Clear, watery or foamy discharge
• Frequent sneezing & nasal congestion
• Worse in the morning
• Triggered by cold air or A/C

Treatment: Warm, transform fluids, release the exterior, and strengthen the Spleen.

Common formulas:
Ge Gen Tang
Ling Gui Zhu Gan Tang
Xiao Qing Long Tang
Gui Zhi Tang
Zhen Wu Tang

🔥 HEAT PATTERN | Thick, Yellow Discharge
• Thick, yellow discharge
• Nasal redness or inflammation
• Burning or irritation
• Possible sinus pressure or itchy eyes

Treatment: Clear Heat, diffuse Lung Qi, and open the nasal passages.

Common formulas:
Ma Xing Gan Shi Tang
Yue Bi Jia Zhu Tang
Xie Bai San

🌾 DON’T FORGET THE SPLEEN

In TCM, “the Spleen generates Qi for the Lung.”

When Spleen transformation is impaired, fluids may accumulate and contribute to phlegm and dampness.

“Strengthening the Earth to generate Metal” (培土生金) supports the Spleen and Stomach to help regulate the Lung system.

Spleen Qi Deficiency formulas:
Si Jun Zi Tang
Liu Jun Zi Tang
Shen Ling Bai Zhu San
Xiang Sha Liu Jun Zi Tang

💡 KEY CLINICAL QUESTIONS

👉 Clear or yellow discharge?
👉 Worse with cold or heat?
👉 Worse in the morning?
👉 Sneezing, itchy eyes, or postnasal drainage?
👉 How is the patient’s digestion and Spleen Qi?

The nose may be where the symptoms appear.
The pattern determines the treatment.

🌿 Pattern differentiation is the foundation of TCM.

⚠️ These formulas are not universal treatments for allergic rhinitis. Herbal formulas should be selected according to individual pattern differentiation by a qualified TCM practitioner.

📌 Save this post for your next allergic rhinitis case.

🍂 Early Autumn Is Here: TCM Tips for Dry Skin & “Autumn Dryness”

As we move into early autumn, cooler temperatures and drier air can leave the skin feeling dry, tight, itchy, or flaky.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), autumn is associated with the Lung, and the Lung is said to “govern the skin and body hair” (肺主皮毛). From a TCM perspective, Autumn Dryness (秋燥) may affect the Lung and contribute to dryness of the skin and mucous membranes.

🌿 3 TCM Tips for Early Autumn

1️⃣ Nourish with Moistening Foods 🥣
Consider incorporating foods traditionally used to nourish Yin and support Lung function, such as white fungus (銀耳), black fungus (黑木耳), lily bulb (百合), seaweed, and other nutrient-rich foods.

2️⃣ Keep the Bowels Moving 🚽
TCM describes the Lung and Large Intestine as being interior-exteriorly related (肺與大腸相表裡). Supporting healthy bowel function is an important part of maintaining overall balance during the dry autumn season.

3️⃣ Pay Attention to Dry Lips 👄
Dry, peeling lips are common during seasonal transitions. In TCM, this presentation may be evaluated in relation to Spleen/Stomach function, Heat, Yin deficiency, and other underlying patterns. Classical formulas such as Gan Lu Yin (甘露飲) may be considered when appropriate, but formula selection should always be based on pattern differentiation (辨證論治).

🍁 TCM seasonal care is not simply about adding more moisturizer.
It is about adjusting diet, hydration, lifestyle, and treatment according to the changing seasonal environment and the individual’s pattern.

Save this post for your early-autumn wellness reference. 🌿

🍂 White Dew Is Coming | Autumn Dryness Begins

Around White Dew (Bailu), the season gradually transitions from Late Summer into Autumn.

In TCM, Autumn is associated with Dryness (燥).

Common signs of Autumn Dryness:
Dry skin｜Chapped lips｜Flaking｜Dry cough｜Constipation

🌿 TCM Seasonal Tip

The Lung governs the skin and body hair (肺主皮毛),
and the Lung and Large Intestine are internally-externally related (肺與大腸相表裡).

Seasonal wellness is not only about external moisturizing.
It is also important to support the Lungs, Spleen and Stomach, and intestinal function.

🌿 Classical Formulas for Autumn Dryness

Sha Shen Mai D**g Tang (沙參麥冬湯)
→ For Lung and Stomach Yin deficiency with dry cough and dry throat.

Zeng Ye Tang (增液湯)
→ For fluid deficiency with intestinal dryness and constipation.

Gan Lu Yin (甘露飲)
→ For Stomach Yin deficiency with dry mouth and dry oral tissues.

🥣 Seasonal Food Therapy

White Fungus｜Lily Bulb｜Lotus Seed｜Chinese Yam

Stay adequately hydrated and maintain regular bowel movements to help the body adapt to the drier season.

Autumn wellness begins from the inside out.
Follow the season. Differentiate the pattern. Treat accordingly.

🍂 End of Summer, Beginning of Autumn | TCM Seasonal Wellness

Around Chushu (處暑), one of the 24 Solar Terms, seasonal influence shifts from Late-Summer Dampness toward Autumn Dryness.

From a TCM perspective:

🌿 Strengthen the Spleen & Transform Dampness
🍂 Nourish Yin & Moisten Dryness

━━━━━━━━━━━━

🌧️ ① Late-Summer Dampness

Heat, humidity, iced drinks, and cold foods may challenge digestion, especially with Spleen Qi deficiency.

🌿 Wei Ling Tang (胃苓湯)

A traditional combination of Ping Wei San (平胃散) and Wu Ling San (五苓散).

Traditionally used to dry Dampness, strengthen the Spleen, regulate fluids, and promote urination. It may be considered for loose stools, diarrhea, and abdominal fullness when the pattern is appropriate.

━━━━━━━━━━━━

☀️ ② Summer Heat & Qi Deficiency

After prolonged heat and sweating, fatigue, thirst, or shortness of breath may occur.

🌿 Sheng Mai Yin (生脈飲)

Ren Shen • Mai Men D**g • Wu Wei Zi
(人參 • 麥冬 • 五味子)

Traditionally used to supplement Qi, nourish Yin, and generate fluids.

🌿 Gan Lu Yin (甘露飲)

Traditionally used for patterns involving Stomach Yin deficiency and fluid depletion, especially dry mouth and throat.

━━━━━━━━━━━━

🥣 ③ Seasonal Food Therapy

✔️ Si Shen Tang (四神湯) — Chinese yam, lotus seeds, gorgon fruit, and coix seed; traditionally supports the Spleen and transforms Dampness.

✔️ Lily Bulb (百合) — traditionally nourishes Yin and moistens the Lungs.

✔️ Sweet Potato Leaves (地瓜葉) — a simple, nutrient-rich vegetable.

━━━━━━━━━━━━

🍂 Seasonal Principle

“Strengthen the Spleen at the end of summer, then nourish Yin and moisten Dryness as autumn begins.”

📌 Chushu reminders:

Less iced drinks 🧊
Support digestion 🌿
Reduce Dampness-forming habits 💧
Begin nourishing Yin & moistening Dryness 🍂

⚠️ Disclaimer: Educational and general wellness information only. Not individualized medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Herbal formulas should be selected by a qualified TCM practitioner based on individual pattern differentiation.
