- Lemons, greens, leafy vegies, lighter broths/food -- no salads yet please
- Do not eat raw foods yet as they are cooling, and work against the metabolism-stimulating warming and detox that occurs in the digestive system in Spring.
- Greens such as leafy vegetables, spring onion, brussels sprouts, and kale.
- wholegrains and fish.
- Broth soups like pho.
- steamed foods and stirfrys.
- hot/cooked salads.
- green tea and peppermint tea.
- Yoga or stretching (for this tight tendon season) and physical activity
- Spring energy is very invigorating, but can be too frenetic, so do yoga or meditation to calm down as well as loosening muscles.
- Socialising – the urge increases
- Make sure you keep a balance between socialising and down-time.
- Cleansing the body, home and the mind
- Spring is the best time to work on clearing out the old -- both physically and mentally.
- Spring clean and de-clutter your house.
- Do your tax.
- Letting go of the past and “old stuff” both emotionally and physically. In spring, frustration and anger can come up easily.
- Be proactive, and be kind to yourself.
- Lightening the diet and exercising more as the weather gets warmer will make you feel better both physically and emotionally.
