Lighten Up, Buttercup
Spring. There's something about the longer days, the sense of rejuvenation as nature bursts forth, that lifts our spirits and gives us renewed energy.
But not for all of us.
September falls at a tough time in the calendar. The year is three quarters done, and many of us have reached that stage of 'just hanging in'. We're carrying the weight of the long months, their baggage and their dramas.
What a shame to miss out on the buoyancy of green shoots, blossoms and bird song after a drab and dark winter.
So here's the thing. Winter is a period for things to die off, yet it is often characterised by holding on to issues long past their sell by date. Are you staying in the long miserable season of winter? Are you hanging onto grudges, resentment, fear?
Traditional Chinese medicine links Spring with the element of Wood. This element represents the life force of movement. It's about new beginnings whether it be birth, new ideas, new starts, new work or project opportunities.
Anger is the emotion attached to Wood. Anger in its positive form, encourages us to act, to make decisions, move forward. However, if it builds up within us and becomes unbalanced, it explodes – get out of my way!
Don't store old emotions. Let them go so that in Spring, you can step into a new cycle of growth and forward momentum and harmony.
It's a time to shed the old skin, the old stagnant feelings and thought processes. A mental, emotional and physical spring clean is just the tonic.
BodyTalk is your go-to spring cleaning service. It will ask your body what it needs to release and what needs to be turfed out with the ashes of winter. You'll be surprised at what's collected in your mental attic over the past couple of months.
Cleaning out the dingy corners of long forgotten arguments and irritations is like breathing new life into the corners of your mind. After a BodyTalk session, you'll feel like you've lost kilograms of dead weight.
BodyTalk will put a spring in your step.
