The Herbalist\u2019s Winter Wellness Playbook<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Winter is often viewed as a time of rest and reflection, yet the shorter days and colder weather can present challenges to both body and mind. The sluggishness, fatigue, and occasional winter blues many of us experience are natural responses to the season. In fact, up to 25% of people experience symptoms of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)<\/strong>, while others may simply feel more \u00ab\u00a0off\u00a0\u00bb than usual.<\/span><\/p>\n

On a spiritual level, they house our primal essence or \u00ab\u00a0jing\u00a0\u00bb and govern emotional states such as fear and willpower.<\/p>\n
