This installment of our 4 Seasons of Health series will explore practical, natural ways to stay healthy, resilient, and grounded throughout the autumn months.

Dr. Kate Sage will share strategies to support the immune system, reduce stress, and help prevent burnout during this busy season. She'll also discuss how to be prepared if you or a family member gets sick, including key supplements to keep on hand for common ailments, traditional kitchen remedies, nourishing healing recipes, and simple comfort care practices. 

Dr. Andres Velasquez will introduce the Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective on autumn, exploring how the season influences the body and mind. He'll share time-tested seasonal practices to help cultivate balance, strengthen resilience, and prepare for a healthy transition into winter. 

We hope you'll join us for an informative and practical evening filled with tools you can use all season long!

In the desert, autumn is often the season when life shifts back into high gear.

School and work schedules fill our calendars, activities ramp up, and we begin the busy lead-up to the holiday season. At the same time, it's easy to get sidelined by the colds, viruses, and other illnesses that seem to make their way home from school, the gym, the grocery store, and everywhere in between. 

This workshop was created to help you better understand what your body and mind may need during summer, through an integrative lens that combines naturopathic medicine, mental health, holistic skincare, nervous system education, and realistic wellness practices.

Practical care for life in Tucson.

The Four Seasons of Health is an ongoing seasonal workshop series designed to help people reconnect with their health in a way that feels cyclical, sustainable, and human.

Rather than approaching wellness as constant optimization, this series explores how our bodies, emotions, energy, skin, habits, and nervous systems naturally shift throughout the year.

Each seasonal event will explore topics like:

  • nervous system support

  • seasonal eating and nourishment

  • movement and energy

  • realistic self-care practices

  • community connection

  • seasonal rituals and reflection
