Healthy Living in the Season through Traditional Chinese Medicine with Marylee Calmes

Healthy Living in the Season through Traditional Chinese Medicine with Marylee Calmes

Author: Ramsey Zimmerman - Holistic and Natural Health Specialist, Author, and Nutritional Therapy Practitioner July 30, 2026 Duration: 43:42
How can we feel our best year-round, nourish ourselves with the right foods, and avoid illness as the weather (and our bodies!) change with the seasons? Marylee Calmes is a 30-year practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), and an educator. Her own healing journey began in the midst of illness, where she discovered that true healing is not a race,  it’s a rhythm. That gentle, cyclical approach now informs everything Marylee teaches through her work with Living in the Season. Ramsey and Marylee spoke about the five seasons of TCM and how they connect to the elements, how TCM can complement Western Medicine, and specifically what we should be eating as we head into late Summer. In her practice, MaryLee offers seasonal guides, reflections, recipes, and meditations that bridge science, spirit, and natural medicine. She holds advanced degrees in Acupuncture, Oriental Medicine, Chinese Herbal Medicine, Psychology, and Education. Her approach is one of calm compassion and practical advice.  Learn more at livingintheseason.com.
