If you've been looking for a way to access the benefits of mindfulness, but don't know where to begin, I highly recommend Inner Peace, Outer Peace, a six week series in Oakland taught by Buddhist Chaplain and Physician of Traditional Chinese Medicine Prajna Choudhury. Enter into or renew a meditation practice in a supportive, non-judgemental atmosphere. You'll learn everything you need to begin to unlock this powerful practice that can benefit everyone! Held in the beautiful Energy Matters studio on Piedmont Ave, the next series begins February 6, and an evening class will be offered in August. β€οΈπŸ˜” Visit @energymattersacupuncture Website for more info and to register. #mindfulness #meditation #stillness #acupuncture #healing #innerpeace #health #quiet #oakland #oaklandevents #holisticmedicine
Or, it's always ok. I'm definitely saddling up my snail on this rainy day. As I've gotten older and experienced illness especially related to my energy levels, I'm grateful to have learned to appreciate the snail's pace. I used to be very intolerant of any slowness, in others and especially myself. Still working on it... Slowly. 🐌 #slow #slowmovement #winter #rest #naturalhealing#naturalhealth #sleep #illness #naturalcycles #acupuncture #traditionalchinesemedicine #restismedicine ・・・ πŸ–ΌοΈ@buddhadoodles
A serious fairy toadstool has appeared in the garden in front of @energymattersacupuncture . πŸ„πŸ„πŸ„ . I had a dream a few weeks ago where a Mushroom Goddess appeared to me with some recommendations about mushrooms I should be taking in a nighttime elixir, and I've started doing it. I love to eat mushrooms (we get beech and maitake every week in our box from @farmfreshtoyou ) but I've never taken them medicinally on an ongoing basis until now. I chose a blend from Blue Dragon Herbs that is Jade Windscreen modified to include a variety of medicinal mushrooms to create a tonic blend. I've just started, but you better believe I'll be following the instructions I was given! . πŸ„πŸ„πŸ„ . Do you take mushrooms? Do other healers ever get prescriptions in your dreams? . 🌜😴🌿 . PS don't worry, I won't be eating the Smurf House toadstool from the parking lot! . πŸ„πŸ„πŸ„ . #mushrooms #medicinalmushrooms #reishi #shitake #cordyceps #maitake #traditionalasianmedicine #traditionalmedicine #traditionalchinesemedicine #acupuncture #dreammedicine #medicinedream #healers
Recipe testing for my class this weekend, Demystifying the Instant Pot at @energymattersacupuncture (sorry, sold out!). πŸŽπŸπŸπŸ’ This is fruit compote, a winter healing food that would have provided vital nutrients in the winter months in the days before December strawberries and January mangoes. ❄️❄️❄️ Adding warming spices like cinnamon, star anise and cardomom increases its medicinal quality... And deliciousness! I eat this on oatmeal every morning, but it's sweet enough for dessert. If you eat seasonally and are feeling tired of apples, 🍎 try compote (especially if you don't live in California ) #instantpot #wintereating #seasonal #seasonaleating #compote #acupuncture #tcm #pressurecooker #healingfoods #kitchenmedicine #spices #herbalhealing #oakland #oaklandevents #compoteismynewfavouriteword

πŸ›‘οΈπŸ’šπŸ˜·Jade Shield is my aromatherapy interpretation of Jade Windscreen, the immune protecting herbal formula. . . 🌲🌲🌲A fresh, forest scent from balsam fir and other oils with cleansing and protective qualities, it makes a great prezzie or way to bring some green brightness to dark winter days.

Happy Holidays!πŸ•Žβ›„πŸŒ² This weekend was the start of Khaneke* so I got in the festive mood! Along with candle lighting and latkes, I started this year's winter bitters.
