🌑TODAY IS A NEW MOON.🌑

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

In the Chinese medical classic, Huángdì Nèijīng Sùwèn (The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine), Chapter 73 describes the cosmic movement of qi as ascending, descending, coming, going. This is the fundamental rhythm of yin and yang.

This is the exact energetic pattern of the lunar cycle:
Yang ascends toward the full moon.
Yin returns at the new moon.

Heaven’s qi is at its quietest, yin is strongest, and the body mirrors this inward movement.

Chapter 66 explains that health depends on the meeting of Heaven’s descending qi and Earth’s ascending qi. The new moon is the moment of maximum descent.

The new moon time is for rest, rejuvenation, and nourishment.

This September 7th marks the Chinese solar term, White Dew (Báilù). The season is marked with cooler mornings, crisp air on the skin, and the first beads of “white dew” forming on grass and leaves as yin gently rises. This is the natural sign that we’re crossing from Late Summer’s Earth phase into Autumn’s Metal season.

This is the moment when the heat finally loosens, Damp starts to lift, and the Lung system asks for a little more care. Warm, moistening foods, earlier bedtimes, slower mornings, and simple grounding routines such as meditation and prayer help the body adjust to the change.

Thanks to all who joined us for our Late Summer session of acupuncture sound healing in the garden. The season brought a magical soundscape of cicadas, bees, crickets, and fire trucks. We had a Late Summer point prescription formulated to gently move qi, strengthen the Spleen–Stomach, clear Damp, and calm the spirit, helping the body stay balanced and grounded during the Earth‑element season. Stay tuned for more community wellness events and workshops.

August 23 marks the arrival of Chǔshǔ (Limit of Heat/處暑), the Chinese solar term that signals the official end of Late Summer and the more noticeable shift toward Autumn.

The heavy, humid air begins to disperse, heat starts to retreat, and the body naturally transitions from digestion‑centered Late Summer energy toward the cooler, lung‑focused rhythms of Fall.

In East Asian medicine, this brief shift between seasons is a prime window for a seasonal tune‑up: supporting the Spleen and Stomach, clearing lingering Damp‑Heat from summer, and strengthening the Lung system before autumn dryness arrives. It’s a time to harmonize digestion, calm the nervous system, and prepare immunity for the cooler months ahead.

Schedule your seasonal tune-up today!

🎉I'm excited to share my newest addition to the mini apothecary, Ethiopian Nigella Black Seed Oil from Sidr & Stone.

One of the medicinal components of the black seed is a chemical called thymoquinone. The benefits of this chemical and black seed are supported by extensive clinical research and are honored across Egyptian, Islamic, Greek, Chinese, and Unani medical traditions. This is one of the most studied medicinal seeds in the world, used for millennia and now validated by modern science. A potent addition to the mini apothecary for targeted, evidence‑based support.
This Ethiopian Black Seed Oil is lab‑verified at 2.67% thymoquinone — more than double the typical concentration. Most products contain under 1%, and very few are ever tested.

BLACK SEED OIL BENEFITS:
💯 Boost immunity
Contains thymoquinone, a naturally occurring antioxidant compound. Thymoquinone is the primary bioactive phytochemical found in the essential oil of the Nigella sativa (black seed) plant. It is heavily researched for its strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory properties.
💯 Supports Digestive Health
Traditionally used to ease bloating, gas, and indigestion.
💯 Respiratory Relief
Thymoquinone has been studied for its potential role in supporting respiratory comfort.
💯 Regulates Blood Sugar & Cholesterol
Some studies suggest it may help lower blood sugar levels.
💯 Anti-Inflammatory & Pain Relief
Traditionally used to soothe joint and muscle discomfort.
💯 Hair Growth & Scalp Care
Nourishes hair follicles, reduces hair thinning, and promotes growth.

💥Did You Know That You Emit Light?💥

Almost every living thing emits light, not visible beams, but an ultra‑weak shimmer called biophoton emission. These tiny packets of light arise from cellular activity, especially oxidative metabolism. The glow is so faint that only sensitive instruments can detect it, yet it is continuous, rhythmic, and connected to the body’s biological processes.
