Notes to the Self: Adaptation

This year, during the rainy month of Karkidakam, you wrote about the importance of self-care. You remembered how the chills, colds, and coughs that often accompanied the season could leave you feeling miserable, and how comforting bowls of rasam and home-cooked chicken curry could bring warmth and relief. 

Then you had to relocate to this hillstation where the cold lingers in the air and the climate is so different from what you were accustomed to. Once again, you find yourself susceptible to colds and coughs, worrying about your health. As the colder months of winter approach, you wonder how you will manage. Will your body adapt to this new climate? Will you find ways to keep yourself warm, nourished, and healthy? The thought of the long winter ahead makes you anxious and you need to find ways to nourish yourself.
