    Autumn Wellness: Tools for Boosting Your Immunity with Erik Harris

    In Chinese medicine there's a concept called wei qi - a kind of energetic barrier that protects us from pathogens. In this episode, Erik introduces a variety of tools and techniques that you can use at home to help boost your wei qi and prevent infection as the weather gets colder. Included in the discussion are guasha (skin scraping), fire cupping, moxabustion, herbs and vitamins. You'll also learn how to make your own immunity tincture. This recording was excerpted from a lecture given at Collaborative Natural Health Partners in Manchester, CT in October 2019.  Stay tuned at the end for a meditative moment focused on immunity.  You can become a supporter on Anchor for as little as $0.99 a month or at our Healing is in Your Hands Patreon!  Patreon subscribers get access to additional content.

    Grab your hot cocoa- this week Kim and Erik welcome Ali Lazowski! Ali is the founder and CEO of Bare Life, a crave-worthy and allergen-friendly food startup, inspired by her journey with chronic illness. Ali attended culinary school in Italy before starting college at Johns Hopkins University. Ali has always been passionate about food, but it was her simultaneous battles with cancer and Lyme disease that inspired Ali to truly explore her love of food and launch a business. She began by creating Bare Life's coconut hot cocoa mix - organic, Kosher, vegan, gluten-free, Paleo, and produced locally - and by writing Bare Life’s hot cocoa-centric recipes. She was also recently named one of the Hartford Business Journal’s and Connecticut Magazine’s Top 40 under 40. Bare Life will be donating part of their profits for the month of June to the Loving Communities Fund & Schott Foundation for Public Education, Journey 4 Justice, Alliance to Reclaim Our Schools & Dignity in Schools Campaign in support of the Black Lives Matter movement and communities of color impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.  Connect with Bare Life:  Bare Life website Bare Life Pinterest **Crave-worthy allergen-friendly foods & recipes.
