Description
Book Synopsis
This is more than a seasonal living guidebook. It presents time-tested ways of handling the changing seasons based on the so-called 24 solar terms, which have been recognized as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization since 2016.
In journalistic style, this book succinctly explains what the 24 solar terms are, why they can help people live more in tune with nature, and how understanding seasonality can bring health benefits. Better yet, each chapter of the book includes a timeless poem with a seasonal theme, as well as colorful pictures of seasonal scenery.
Delightful and insightful, this is a must-read for everyone seeking a more environmentally friendly and health promoting lifestyle!

The author of this book produced a series of Youtube videos about the 24 solar terms. Those are great videos, but this book is even better, because it's more detailed. It provides scientific information about why humans are seasonal beings and why seasonal living can bring health benefits. Apparently, the author did a lot of research. It's amazing how distilled wisdom from the solar terms invented prior to 104 BC can still work for people today!
