Fall begins this week, September 23rd with the autumn equinox. We love to focus on all things seasonal to help ground our diet - and just about everything else! This week, we're focusing inward and preparing to transition into the cooler, calmer, and most importantly, more reflective months of the year. Holistic lifestyle pro Lacy Phillips of Free + Native Journal is sharing a few of her sweet and highly recommended essentials to enjoy during the Autumnal months...

Energetically, in Chinese medicine, Autumn is associated with the lungs, which deeper signifies “letting go.” So this is a very mindful time to let go of anything we might be holding onto that isn’t serving us anymore. Thus making room for new experience, jobs, relationships - with self and others - or plans that will stretch us and help us to grow. Here are a few of the essential items I will be eating, wearing and otherwise enjoying throughout this introspective and wonderful threshold:
