端午の節句|台灣端午節

日日是好日 — 端午節快樂

今年的端午節，食用家人的手工素粽+艾草團子來慶祝。 每年5月下旬～6月上旬之間，Shamilina也會跟小農入手日本品種的有機艾草，煮艾草茶，泡艾草澡, 再吃艾草大福跟團子。 從裡到外，清理乾淨，正氣十足, 迎接夏至。

願世界的每一個人，今年也元氣滿滿健康平安喜悅，活出內在那份愛與平靜，閃閃發光❤️

端午節（たんごせつ）

台湾の端午節で有名なのは、『ちまき』を食べること、『ドラゴンボートレース』の観戦することと、よもぎを使用することです。よもぎはは厄除け・健康の効果があると言われ、端午節の象徴となっています。

今年のシャミリナは端午の節句に、家族の手作りのベジタリアン団子とよもぎ団子でお祝いします。毎年5月下旬から6月上旬にかけて、ファーマーズマーケットから日本産の有機よもぎを調達し、よもぎ茶を作り、よもぎ風呂に入り、よもぎ団子を食べます。内側と外側とも浄化され、元気いっぱいで夏至の日を迎います。

今年も皆さん一人ひとりが、元気で健康で、平和と喜びにあふれ、内なる愛に包まれて生きていくことができますように。❤️☀️
