According to Chinese Five Elements, Autumn is a time to let go and slow down, a time to prepare ourselves for winter; the days growing shorter and cooler is an invitation to do so.

The alchemist of the past attempted to transform base metals to gold. The internal alchemy of the Metal element extracts and creates value, enhances appreciation, and improves our defences and adaptability in the face of stress. During these 2 hours together, we seek to alchemise perfectionism to appreciation, disappointment to recognition of value, and loss/grief to acceptance.
