It can be so common to feel the quickening of summertime and forget to slow down to truly savor the season.
Sometimes it feels almost impossible to find the quiet in all the expansive blossoming energy.
But if we don't slow down to pause, we miss the opportunity to more fully receive the gifts of the season.
And we may end up more imbalanced during the peak and late summertime.
Too hot, too dry, too fiery, too much.
So what are some ways to slow down and savor this season?
That's exactly the question that this medley episode answers from three different lenses.
First I share about ways to deepen connection to the rhythms of your womb, and specifically this episode snippet covers the arousal process & a little on your womb rhythms during your fertility years.
Next, Ruth Hull explores three different homeopathic remedies for hot flashes and night sweats (which can certainly be exacerbated in peak summer), and how to be very specific in your choice of which one is right for you.
And finally, I share a little about herbal allies for for cooling down the summer heat in your body.
I hope you find this episode to be a gift in this potent window of summer solstice.
