There’s medicine in doing less!

Gone are the verdant greens and the warmth of summer. The long days and the eternal sunshine.

☀️

It’s time to welcome in the wetter, windier, shorter and darker days.

🍁

You aren’t meant to BE and behave in the same way now as you did mid July.

Our ancestors knew this.

☀️

Before our lives were filled with LEDs, blue screens and 24/7 illumination, these days were honored.

🍁

Every culture, every religion and every system of medicine before our current one (Ayurvedic, Chinese, naturopathic etc). prepared for these times. The changing of the seasons.

🍁

So slow down.
Go within.
Read.
Sleep more.
Drink tea.
Practice stillness.
Eat heartier foods (not junk!)
Gather in community.

And yes, get outside! Get light.

That’s non negotiable no matter the season.

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend.

Public service announcement!
Slow down! Breathe!

☀️

I’m a week back from a 2 week hiatus and the stress, anxiety, fear and worry that I am seeing in my beloved patients is so high.

☀️

There’s plenty of reasons for it.

☀️

And there’s plenty of ways that we can mitigate it.

☀️

First, stop.
Close your eyes.
Breathe deeply through your nose!

Even if just for a few moments per day.

☀️

Nostril breathing actives the parasympathetic nervous system , slows the heart and calms the mind.

Whereas mouth breathing, makes us more stressed!

☀️

Seem simple?
It is. And it’s a tool you can use anytime and anywhere.

☀️

Set a timer.
Do it hourly.

Do it while you drive (eyes open please!)

Do it on the toilet.

Do it between calls and emails.

☀️

Do it enough times that your body recognizes the signal and SOFTENS into STILLNESS!

☀️

That’s where the magic is.
That’s where the peace is.
That’s where you come home to you.

☀️

You aren’t going to change this world through worry.

☀️

You change it by tending to you!

Our life medicates us!
Our choices medicate us!

Nothing we do, see, experience is ever neutral!

It’s a plus (+) or its a minus (-)

☀️

If you want to believe that the world is ugly and that life is hard, then continue watching the news. Continue in arguing on social media.

☀️

But if you want to be reminded of the goodness and the beauty, then get out into nature! Surround yourself with good humans or animals !

☀️

Your life is your medicine!
Your choices medicate!

☀️

Choose well!
And dose high!

Healing requires your authentic self to show up! ☀️

The part of you that laughs and giggles and plays. ☀️

Not the part of you that’s over scheduled, doing 5 am fasted workout, counting macros & skimping on what truly “nourishes” you.

What nourishes you?
What makes you laugh?

☀️

Because that’s what the world needs from you!

☀️

Authenticity and connection ripple out and affect everyone you touch.

☀️

And this is the medicine you give others ….& it is needed now. Because we all medicate eveyone we touch!

☀️

I am blessed in the work that I do!

I get to sit, listen, learn from my patients.
I get to say thank you and I love you.

☀️

And in this wild and crazy time, there is also tenderness and beauty.

☀️

And when we show up in our authenticity; we are all the medicine, the salve, the balm for one another!

I am enjoying the exquisite beauty of Utah.

Driving from Idaho to Montana to Wyoming to Utah has been a beautiful adventure for the senses and the spirit.

A sense of safety and stillness are requirements for healing. And being in nature allows for both.

Health & healing can be complicated in today’s 24/7 world, but being outside in nature reminds us of how simple it can be.

Travel.
Wander.
Not just to see new places but to discover yourself somewhere else.

Nature is medicine and I’m so grateful for this time off grid to explore more of the magic and beauty of this amazing country.

I hope that you all had a wonderful long weekend!

Me? I spotted these birds 🦅

I am a very novice bird watcher and I’ve seen these on & off for the past few years …solitary, diving underwater and rare to spot. But always alone.

I thought that I knew what species they were. I wasn’t correct in my assessment.

And then I saw nearly a dozen of them.
And realized that they weren’t at all what I thought they were.

And we all do that. All the time

We attach ourselves to a subject matter, rather than allow it to unfold in the process.

We think we know what something is, when we really don’t.

The mind wishes to know facts at the expense of patience.
It’s always in opposition of the fear that would happen if we admitted that we were wrong.

But there is such a beauty in the experience of something new.

Even if it goes against what we believed to have been true.

All of life is like that.

Can we relax into the feeling of something new? Even if it means that everything we thought was incorrect?
