In this solo episode, we’re diving into health-related themes connected to Virgo season: your gut, immunity, & sanity. In a time where so many are experiencing personal “dark night of the souls” amidst collective intensity, it’s important we remember the wisdom of our bodies, our connection to the changing seasons, and anchor into nourishing practices that support our bodies on all levels. When our gut and bodies (physical, mental, emotional, energetic) are taken care of, we have the resilience and internal resources to navigate challenging experiences and the connection to intuition that guides our way.
I cover astro insights + influences for Virgo season as it relates to health, immunity from an Ayurvedic and ecological perspective, & how to cultivate a healthy gut, immune system and maintain sanity in these intense times. I share some of my favorite herbs, remedies and practices for Virgo and your gut-immune axis, as well as general immune supportive tips for this transitional season to boost your resilience against viral infection.

Vitamin D – there’s a link between vitamin D levels and severity of COVID-19 disease. In this study, 86% of people with normal vitamin D levels had mild COVID-19 disease; on the other hand, 73% of people with low vitamin D levels had severe or critical COVID-19 disease. The authors conclude:
“This means that serum (OH)D level in the body could account for the clinical outcomes of the patients infected with COVID-2019. An increase in serum (OH)D level in the body could either improve clinical outcomes or mitigate worst (severe to critical) outcomes. On the other hand, a decrease in serum (OH)D level in the body could worsen clinical outcomes of COVID-2019.”
Vitamin C
Zinc + Quercetin
