Today, Dr Rachel Redmond, Dr of Oriental Medicine, is coming to the show. We will be talking about sitting the month, and some bits of wisdom from Traditional Chinese Medicine.

In this episode, Rachel and I talked about:

🤱 What does it look like? What does the everyday routine look like when sitting the month?
