 You will hear about:

• Physical qualities that can occur such as allergies and sluggish digestion.

Each season brings a unique set of qualities associated with it.  The winter is highlighted by dry and cold weather, a dormancy or hibernation both internally and in nature, and an overall   reflective and nurturing 'yin' energy.  Being aware of how we are effected by subtle seasonal influences is the first step towards restoring balance  physically, emotionally, spiritually and energetically.  

Join Jennifer and Rose as they share ways to nurture yourself and embrace the beauty of winter.   Some of these techniques use ancient holistic Ayurvedic approaches that include eating the right foods and creating space for self-care.  You will also learn what 'Hygge' is (hint: it's about being cozy)  along other winter wellness tips.
