In this welcoming, grounding episode, Kathleen Kenneally returns from a summer pause to explore the gentle transition from Fire to Earth—the second half of summer known as Late Summer or Indian Summer. With warmth and clarity, she invites listeners to notice the energetic shift from the bright, busy expansion of early summer into a more centered, ripening, and nourishing space. Kathleen unpacks what it means to embody the Earth element in daily life, including how this energy supports stability, digestion (on every level), and our sense of feeling nurtured and at home in ourselves.
She explains how the spleen and stomach work as the central “brothers” of the Earth element, nourishing the rest of the body and supporting strong muscles, clarity, and grounded emotions. Kathleen explores the signs of Earth out of balance—overthinking, worry, digestive troubles, and craving sweetness—as well as what healthy, balanced Earth energy looks like: calm, empathy, good boundaries, and healthy attachment. Through practical wisdom, she invites listeners to reflect on what grounds and supports them, not just with food, but also in spirit, relationships, and the information we “digest” from the world.
Practical tips include favoring warm foods and hydration, making time for rest, and connecting with the rhythms of the season. Kathleen closes by inviting everyone to upcoming events on seasonal eating and community acupuncture for stress and anxiety, and reminds listeners to tune in for part two—where she’ll dive deeper into Earth element foods, crystals, and lifestyle support.
