Fall is the season of the Lung

With the Fall Equinox, we have officially entered Autumn and the season of the LUNG.

Lung Meridian

The lung is responsible for respiration (inhalation and exhalation) and our Wei qi (defensive qi). The lungs are our first line of defense against external pathogens. Hence why fall is often the cold and flu season. This is when our lungs either feast or famine.

The orifice the lungs correspond with is the skin. If the lungs are weak there can be a rise in skin conditions, acne or sensitivity.
