Breathe easy,
Last year, I recorded a special coherence meditation for you: Finding Calm in the Haze (a 30-minute healing meditation) to help support you through the smoke season. My intention is for this to be a helpful resource to find calm within, to process emotions surrounding, and to help you return to a harmonious state in mind & body. It can also be used to create coherence in the face of challenge.
Download it above, listen at your own convenience, and revisit as often as you like.
From a harmonious state, we can calm inflammation, we can think clearly, and we can act with alignment.
Please feel free to pass along to any one in need of support.
Other tips for smoke season:
Drink lots of water (helps the kidneys and liver to remove toxins, aim for half of your body weight in ounces of water daily!).
Keep a HEPA air filter running, especially where you sleep.
Check the AQI on an app like Purple Air to decide whether or not it's appropriate to be outside.
Shower before bed.
Epsom salt baths at night, help to calm nerves, and support detoxification.
Simmer herbs on the stove top like culinary sage and rosemary to support lungs and help remove contaminants from the air.
