Living in harmony with Nature's cycles
In today’s culture of glorifying the grind, the hustle, the go-go-go and the yang dominant attitude it is imperative we look back to mother nature and see that everything goes through cycles.
This is true of our bodies as well
To achieve optimal health we need to balance;
Work with rest
Action with inaction
Anabolism with catabolism
Stress with recuperation
Heat with cold
Discipline with freedom
Balance with imbalance
Winter is the yin, restorative time.
The time to sleep more
The time to work less
The time to relax more
The time to look inward
The time to eat warm foods
The time to build your reserves
The time for quiet
The time to listen to your body and spirit
Honour that need
What’s one practice you can implement to achieve greater balance?
