rest – Dr. Elizabeth Cox, ND, LAc https://drsaritaelizabeth.com Mon, 20 Jul 2026 18:08:35 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://drsaritaelizabeth.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/favicon-36x36.png rest – Dr. Elizabeth Cox, ND, LAc https://drsaritaelizabeth.com 32 32 Fire – Schedule mid day Siestas https://drsaritaelizabeth.com/fire-schedule-a-mid-day-siesta/ Sat, 18 Jul 2026 15:33:58 +0000 https://drsaritaelizabeth.com/?p=5542 Continue reading →]]> Schedule mid day Siestas.  

Summer is the apex of the seasons.

Temperatures run hot. Energy requirements run high for travels, social gathers, family & friend time. Making time for a mid day pause is a habit that recharges and regenerates for the adventure packed day and fun filled evening ahead.

How to spend that currency of quiet is custom designed by you.

  • 15 minute power nap
  • 10 minutes of following your breath
  • 20 minute body scan
  • guided meditation
  • zoning out, eyes closed, falling into the quiet
  • choiceless awareness
  • yoga nidra
  • legs up the wall for lymph support

 

There is a hammock waiting for you.

There is a shade tree just outside.

There is a dark & quiet room with a do not disturb sign on the door.

There is a yoga mat with a floor fan blowing.

There is a screened porch with a chaise lounge.

Find your way to a short rest with a long payoff.

You are resilient https://drsaritaelizabeth.com/you-are-resilient/ Mon, 04 Jan 2021 13:39:29 +0000 https://drsaritaelizabeth.com/?p=3671 Continue reading →]]> We have just crossed into the Water (Winter) season in the beginning of January.  Didn’t winter start on the solstice (21st)? Actually the solstice marks the midpoint of 18 transitional days ruled by the Earth (Transition) season. So use those Earth (Transition) Card Decks 4 times a year for seasonal support.

On my first clinic of the season, I opened a deck Water/Winter element wisdom cards and choose this card to start off our season.  I chose the card – You are resilient.  After a year like 2020, I happily receive this affirmation. Last year, I completed the Element Wisdom Card Decks in real time. Each deck of 73 cards (Water, Earth, Wood, Fire, Metal) guides us through one of the four seasons or through the 18 days around each Transitional time of the two solstices and equinoxes.  This year, I will be taking us deeper by diving into the cards, offering practical and simple seasonal support, and delivering via our blog subscribers with inspirations on SM.  If you want to stay up to date sign up here or click the grey envelope on our website: http://drsaritaelizabeth.com/ You can now also search the blog by keyword or card title.  And follow us on IG while your at it!

I always feel more resilient when I eat vital, simply prepared foods.  This week, I will guide you through a gentle holiday reset to help you feel better too! Spoiler alert:  the winter is NOT the best time to detox – save that for spring and fall.  I will guide you in seasonal harmony throughout 2021 as I am developing on-line and in-person group experiences.  I want to witness your health transformation this year.  xoxoxo Sarita
