The transition from Summer into Fall can be the trickiest for our health. It is an important time to bolster our immune system and prepare our heart and mind for the dark of the year.

An Equinox is the time of year when day and night are equal. The autumnal equinox marks the harvest season, when the nights begin to grow longer. Traditional Chinese Medicine teaches that the lungs and immune system are vulnerable during this change. Our insights, introspection and discernment can be enhanced — but old sadness, grief and being judgmental can all intensify.

We’ll honor the season with gratitude, while protecting ourselves from S.A.D. (Seasonal Affective Disorder), that can arise in this quieter time.
We’ll touch on techniques from Qigong, Psychotherapy, and Yoga to protect our health and harmonize our mood.
Along the way we’ll discuss helpful teas, and use fall prevention movement techniques and a bit of Tai Chi to better our balance.

Katja Biesanz, LPC, is a psychotherapist, teacher, and Qigong practitioner. A former professional dancer/choreographer, she moves from the energy body. Katja studied herbalism at the Milagro School of Herbal Medicine, and calls herself a “Mystic Nerd” as she embraces both the miraculous and scientific. She has been a healer her whole life.

Here’s the second of several posts I’ll write this week introducing you to some of botanical gems we’re offering at the Wonder Garden plant sale, THIS SATURDAY 10-12PM. See you at the garden!

Today’s line up includes: Digitalis ‘Honey Trumpet’, Wulfenia x schwarzii and Salvia ’Nachtvlinder’

Sound the honey trumpets! This is one gorgeous and hard-to-find foxglove introduced to the plant world by our friends at Xera Plants. Their nursery is the end-all and be-all of our plant sales and their digitalis is a peach-kissed color marvel with amber overtones. It’s got a long bloom period starting in May and stout flower spikes, and hear this: deer resistant! Add full sun and amended well-drained soil to hear the music.

Shade-loving plants get a table of their own at Saturday’s sale. One of my faves is Wulfenia, whose common name is an insult to the softly scalloped leaves of this low-growing evergreen plant (Cow’s footstep. Come on). We’ve offered wulfenia before and reviews are always rave, not simply for the quick-spreading classy foliage but for months and months of violet blue tubular flowers that hummers are said to love. Not so slugs, for whom this plant appears to have no appeal.

Now for the night butterfly, ‘Nachtvlinder’, a German-named salvia whose color descriptions range from velvety plum to deep burgundy-purple. The dark secret to this sumptuous color is the alchemy that takes place when it’s planted amidst other summer bloomers: Kodachrome! Pure magic, whatever the nearby hues. The plant’s compact and bushy 2’x3’ shape also makes it easy to integrate into any sunny patch of ground.

How can a parent find hope and peace in the unexpected death of a child?

Jane will be reading from her memoir, Firefly: Ashely’s Light, which addresses what she has discovered along the way of processing the sudden loss of her 22-year-old daughter, Ashley, who died in a flash flood while trekking in the Indian Himalayan mountains. Unexpected events before, during, and after the search for Ashley unraveled some answers to Jane’s lifelong search for what is real. Surprising gifts along the way helped bring hope in trying to resolve a death where Jane could not see, be with, or say goodbye to one she loves.

Following the reading and presentation, Jane will answer questions from the audience and sign copies of her book, which Jane will have available for purchase at the event.

To anyone who has a connection to Rockaway Beach or the North Coast of Oregon, there will be a “special meeting” of the Rockaway Beach City Council tonite at 5:30 p.m. at City Hall (276 S. Hwy 101) to consider the resubmittal of the application from the Nedonna Development LLC (Anna Song) to build 28 houses on wetlands in the Nedonna Beach neighborhood.

For the agenda (includes Zoom link) or for a deep dive into any related documentation, go to this link corb.us/city-council/ and scroll down to section CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS (directly under the photos of the Mayor and City Council Members). If you are concerned about saving and protecting the remaining wetlands in Rockaway Beach, it’s important to show up and speak up.

Why it matters:

**The proposed development sets on ecologically rich Special Area wetlands — critical habitat that filters pollution, prevents flooding, and supports native fish.

**The land overlays Rockaway Beach’s backup drinking water aquifer — development here potentially puts the safety of the City’s drinking water supply at risk.

**This land should never have been approved for residential development in the first place. Local zoning and state law clearly protect these wetlands — and this LUBA decision confirms it.

We’re urging City leaders to reverse their approval of this project and protect these sensitive wetlands for good.

Living in this fragile area near the ocean, wetlands, and forested areas, reminds us of the many ways having a healthy ecological system is crucial to our community’s health and wellbeing. Let us all become caring stewards of the wild that surrounds us. The beavers and other wild creatures who depend on the wetlands will thank you. We hope to see you at the special hearing tonite at 5:30 p.m

NCCWP wants no more logging and pesticide use in drinking water sources regardless of who owns the land, and we want an end to pesticide
applications near where people live, work and recreate. Safe drinking water and clean air are part of the public trust that all people are entitled to have. www.healthywatershed.org | www.facebook.com/NCCWATERSHED

Please come with a warm welcome.

THE HOFFMAN CENTER FOR THE ARTS IN MANZANITA

Please join me in offering a warm welcome to my cousin JANE ASHE of Seattle. She is coming to Manzanita SEPTEMBER 18, 4-6, at THE HOFFMAN CENTER to read from her book FIREFLY.

About 20 years ago, Jane’s 22-year-old daughter ASHLEY disappeared in the Himalaya’s. Ashley was trekking with her college sweetheart—a big trip for them following graduation from the University of Washington. Losing her firstborn nearly broke Jane.

If you have ever lost a child or know someone who has or if you carry enough empathy to embrace the agony of such a nightmare—well, you know part of Jane’s path. Her life changed, of course. She blazed her own trail to a new and rewarding way of life. Come listen to her story. It is inspiring.

This is the story of Jane and Ashley, beautifully, poetically, lyrically written. Jane will read from her book on Thursday, September 18 at The Hoff from four to six.
