Autumn in Ticino
Autumn 2023
Autumn is the season of good intentions, of returning to the rhythms of everyday life and a feeling that it’s time to take more care of yourself.
I hope this newsletter finds you well. It has been six months since my last writing. A lot has happened since. I was fortunate to have friends and family visit me. That brought much joy to my heart and helped me feel more at home. Bodhi is very happy here. We both love nature and spend a lot of time out there. He is a trooper on the hikes considering that in two weeks he will be 13 years old.

body talk
For the readers that don’t know what BodyTalk is, I will give you a short explanation. BodyTalk is an all-encompassing Holistic Healthcare System. It is an individual and tailor-made treatment approach where I address the whole person and your whole story. I will tap into your deep rooted believe systems, mirrors and/or patterns in your subconscious mind, bringing those to consciousness; so that your mind and heart can understand and process them. If you’d like to find out more, please book a free consultation with me.
connect your senses
Talking about Autumn, the Chinese Element that represents Fall is Metal and the sense organ is your nose. As the days are getting shorter, embark in an adventure by bringing joy to your life thru your nose.
Take long walks, smell, and see the different changes of the season. The landscape pictures are from the Verzasca Valley in Ticino, Switzerland, near my home. At the beginning of this valley, there is a dam where they filmed a James Bond movie called Golden Eye. It is supposed to be one of the best stunts in film history. Not to be boastful but they have filmed 5 Bond 007 movies in Switzerland. For the film aficionados I will list them:
Golden Eye
Goldfinger
On her Majesty’s Secret Service
Spy who loved me
A view to Kill
I had no idea. See what you learn when you write or read a newsletter?
Bodhi was overly excited about this hike, so many smells, it was Disneyland to him. Dogs experience life mostly thru their noses. He can find food anywhere.
Talking about food, yes, the wonderful smell of fresh bread or cake is very enticing for your nose.
My friend Gry with Everything is Better with Butter will share one of her amazing creations here with us. I know, we talk about healthy foods, but it can be healthy by using whole ingredients, no artificial anything and no preservatives. Indulge in moderation. LOL.

breathe
In yoga, there is a breathing practice called Nadi Shodhana Pranayama. It is very relaxing technique and clears your mind. My friend Anne-Tyler of Blossom Body Awareness will demonstrate this practice to you. Klick the link below and give it a try.
Embrace a deeper connection with yourself and everything around you.
Wishing you peace and harmony,
Marjorie
