Radical Self-care in our Emerging Society

Thursday, May 3, 2012

Almost everyone I meet nowadays says “Something’s happening”. As our world appears to be speeding up, many of us are quite challenged to find a way to live that feels healthy & lowers our stress level. Here are a few tips to help you to slow down & smell the roses!

 

  • Remind yourself that Less is More in terms of activity during this time of change (this applies to our work, personal life & leisure time)
  • Spend as much time outside as possible, it’s rejuvenating & supports our transformation
  • Drink more water than usual if possible, this supports our changing systems
  • Meditate, pray, ask for guidance (whatever suits you & your philosophy)  – it works!
  • Do something for creative release each day, e.g. singing, art, yoga, dance, walking in nature
  • Use grounding techniques to deal with your stress: e.g. walk on the grass barefoot, lie on the grass under a tree (these 2 are from Ayurvedic (Indian) Medicine; Stamp your feet; Imagine roots coming out of the soles of your feet, drop them down to the centre of the earth & anchor them there
  • Eat moderate amounts of high quality food
  • Balance your intake of alcohol, coffee, sweets, television & on-line activities (the latter may disrupt your nervous system)
  • Laugh & have fun

 

If you feel you’re going through a transformation, you can check out this link: Indigo Children & Adults: Symptoms of Spiritual Awakening -  (It’s not just for Indigos).

Check out my second blog Spiritual Journeying, you’ll find some excellent recent guest blogs on it.

 

Please give us your input, using the comments section. Thanks.

 

In spirit
