Summer is here and the heat is rising! On Tuesday, June 20, from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., come to the Village Center to learn how to support your body and mind during the summer season. Dr. Kimberly Coleman, a registered nurse and doctor of Acupuncture, will discuss the best diets and lifestyle adaptations for what is known as the fire season in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). In TCM there are five elements that correspond to different times of the year, and organs in our bodies. Fire is the element of the summer season and associated with our heart and small intestine. Hear about ways to beat the heat, staying both cool physically and calm emotionally during the fire season. The event is free; please stop by or call the Village Center at 301-656-2797 to reserve a seat.
