The transition into autumn is always a bit of a shock to the body. 

Shifting from expansive heat to cool and dry weather, the leaves falling, the plants going dormant, shifting their vital force down into their roots, the turning inwards.

So how can you tend your body, mind and whole being in this time? 

And especially with all the instability -- of Vata season and our collective global experience right now -- what are some of the ways to nurture yourself and trust the process?

We dive into all of this and more in this week's episode.
