【為何秋天總是愁？】
「傷春悲秋」這個成語比喻人多愁善感，為甚麼我們在秋天時心情特別反覆，甚至有莫名的失落感呢？秋天開始北半球地區逐步日短夜長，日照減少會影響體內血清素平衡，血清素較低容易導致情緒低落、食慾不振甚至出現睡眠障礙。而從中醫角度來看，秋季與肺相應，肺在五行中屬金，七情中的悲也屬金，難免令人容易傷春悲秋，望著大自然花木凋零，人的情緒也會跟著走下坡，亦即所謂的「秋愁」。
秋天養生重點之一就是注意精神調養，因為秋燥抑制肝氣，肝氣鬱結就容易產生情緒問題，所以要適當潤燥，適量進食具潤肺生津、養陰潤燥功效的食材，例如雪梨、雪耳、花旗參、百合、芝麻、蜂蜜、枇杷等，減少進食辛辣食物，平日亦可飲用花茶有助疏肝解鬱。趁秋高氣爽的日子多進行戶外活動，多接觸日光，亦可減少秋愁的影響。

Why do we always feel dispirited during autumn?
There is a Chinese idiom that describes how emotional humans are. Why do we feel emotional during autumn? At times, we might even feel disconsolate, but why? Many regions in the northern hemisphere would have shorter days during autumn. The lack of exposure to the sun will disrupt the balance of serotonin. A lack of serotonin would cause us to feel down and emotional and experience appetite loss and even sleep disorders.
From the perspective of Chinese Medicine, the autumn season corresponds to the lungs. Of all the five elements, the lungs belong to the metal element. Grief in the seven emotions is also associated with metal. Hence, it is easy for humans to feel sad and emotional during autumn. Our emotions are also affected when we see trees wilt and leaves fall.
To maintain our health during autumn, we should take care of our mental health because autumn dryness can inhibit the qi in the liver. When the qi stagnates in the liver, we would develop emotional problems. Hence, we must consume ingredients that can moisten the lungs, induce salivation, nourish the yin, and moisten dryness in the body. For instance, pear, snow fungus, American ginseng, lily bulb, sesame seed, honey, and loquat. Avoid consuming hot and spicy foods. Drinking floral tea can also soothe the liver and calm the mind. Carry out more outdoor activities to enjoy the nice autumn weather and bask in the sun, as these can help relieve the mood of despondency during autumn.
