Autumn is the season for the lungs/colon meridian. This is the time to find your personal inspiration and self-confidence, to express yourself as a man or woman, to define your individuality, imaginative thought and creativity. This is also the time to prioritize important tasks and organize your life according to your own inspiration and desires. The sense that is most animated during this season is the sense of smell.
When this meridian family is well nourished you may better experience:
- The ability to appreciate the differences between people
- More tolerance and a decreased tendency to judge others
- An ability to acknowledge others without putting them on a “pedestal”
- An improvement in self-confidence and better inspiration
- An increased ability to organize your work according to your own
needs
- Better lung function
- Better balance in your ear, nose and throat area
- An improvement in digestion
- Healthier breasts
- Improvement in your immune system
The organs related to this season are:
- Nutriment #20—Lungs
- Nutriment #05—Colon

- Nutriment #12—Hypothalamus
- Nutriment #14—Larynx
- Nutriment #15—Lymph

When this meridian/vital current is disturbed you may experience:
- A strong desire to follow a “guru” or ideology and give up your own
inspiration
- A need to follow all the rules, “go by the book”, act intolerant and
inflexible

- Pessimism
- A sense of shame, feeling unworthy and unclear
