Metal - autumn time. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Autumn is the time of the element Metal (lungs/large intestines). This is the time when we begin to truly turn inward and become more introspective as our energy shifts for the season. The area we are focusing on is the upper chest/back/arms from fingertips to neck and the related emotion is grief. Join me on the mat for some stillness, quiet, and energy connection... Explore quietly on your own.
Props: 1 blanket (blanket: http://amzn.to/2v0U0eh) optional for your comfort but feel free to gather any props that will support you in your practice today.
