We all know and have heard that meditation and the breath is important, though many of us have not stopped to find out why. The later part of the year, starting in the Fall season, we swing into the Lung/Colon and Vata time of the year.

In Ayurvedic Medicine, Vata deals with the elements of the Ether and the Air, and in Chinese Naturopathic Philosophy, it is the season of the Lung and Colon. Interestingly, these two correlate with each other very well, as a very powerful Marma point located at the end of the colon, Guda, is for reducing excess Vata. Additionally, in Esogetics, we see that when a person has an abundance of Air, that the nervous system is also affected, including things like muscle spasms, especially in the calves (though you can find it anywhere in the body), as well as issues with pH balance, and Kidney/Bladder strength.

Some tips for this season:

• Ground. Sweet and Salty foods are your friends in doing this — Just make sure they are healthier sugars and salts! Sugars also help the cells produce vital energy, and salts help to balance the electrolytes.
• Do a Breathing Meditation (focus on your breath for 10 to 20 minutes)
• Make sure you have adequate intake of Magnesium (sesame seeds can help with this)
• Do a Colon Cleanse with herbs or maybe a Basti… or both
