Seasonal Healing and the Winter Solstice

 

Winter: Rest and Replenish

 

In the northern hemisphere, the Winter solstice is the day of the

year (this year it is December 21) when the Sun is farthest south.

The winter solstice marks the first day of the winter season. The

declination of the Sun on the (northern) winter solstice is known as

the tropic of Capricorn (-23° 27').

 

As an expression in nature, The Winter Solstice is the time to

reflect on the power of our spiritual beliefs and the belief in the

power of ourselves! As we look forward to the beginning of a New

Year, we look at ways to resolve issues and create resolutions that

will manifest change for the better, in ourselves.

 

Winter is the time to take a good look at our health and our

lifestyle. Start by looking at the life around you. Are you living in

chaos? Is your home in a shambles? Is there clutter everywhere? You

may want to consider starting with a good packing and storing

session. Feng Shui, the ancient art of placement, can help you to

find order in your life.

 

The temple, our physical bodies, are the only thing we have to carry

the soul. When our physical bodies are not in proper working order,

everything around us ultimately suffers. Our good health is all we

have that stands between us and the aging process. The longer you

keep your physical body in optimum health, the longer you have your

temple to keep your soul on this plane. Detoxification is the best

way to keep the body at its most ultimate working level.

 

By enjoying a healthy, nutritional diet, getting good quality sleep

and moderate exercise this can keep our physical form at it's best,

always. Take the opportunities that are offered. Make the

opportunities that are not. Find your priorities of life and give

them merit. This is the best season to do this. This is the time when

we have the greatest energy to utilize the power we are given!
