Late Summer

Season of Dampness/Summer Heat

Late summer is both the season that falls between the summer and the fall and the time before and after a solstice and equinox.  The diet for this time is a simple one and should be used in time of extreme stress.  The changes of the seasons from one to another causes stress as disorders that develop during a given season will surface again.  Exercise and sex should be curtailed to allow for a clean and clear transition.  The weather is always in flux during these times.  Proper precautions will lead to a healthy year. 

Any time that you have digestive upset, you can use the diet for the late summer.  This diet is a return to the central foundation of food and digestive action.
