Tis the season for raking leaves, stacking firewood, putting garden tools away, etc. My best advice is to stretch before and after, hydrate, take frequent breaks, and take a long hot bath or shower afterwards. The work doesn’t have to be done all at once. I guarantee it will wait for you!
Also, bend at the knees! Treat yourself to a massage if you can. It will be worth it in the long run!
Taking good care of yourself is good Feng Shui!

I recently went on a mushroom safari! Sue VanHook, a Skidmore College professor, spent two hours with a small group showing and telling about fungi. I have a new appeciation for the “fungus amongus”! We even cooked up a golden colored mushroom that is highly prized in gourmet circles. We made spore prints, too.
Sue is working with twp young scientists to find a way of making take-out containers from fungi…talk about biodegradable!
Learning a new use for something is good Feng Shui!
