Winter, Naturally Well, here it comes again... Winter. For those who are lucky or crafty enough to live in the southern climes, you can just skip the rest of this message. Unless, of course, you'd like to feel even more smug about choosing a warm, sunny place to live. (You can always forward this message to someone you care about who lives in a colder, more Northern climate, too.) For many of the rest of us, winter is a time when we suffer what's commonly called The Winter Blahs. It's official name is SAD, which pretty much explains what it's like. The acronym stands for Seasonal Affective Disorder, which is like the meaning of most acronyms in that it doesn't really make much sense. The symptoms of SAD include:
There are lots of methods for overcoming the symptoms of SAD. Some are pricey (extended vacations to tropical countries); others are questionable (drugs, prescription or otherwise). I teach a class in overcoming these symptoms naturally, using methods such as light therapy and natural supplements. However, there's one important message that most people who suffer from SAD aren't hearing. Winter is NOT the time to be as physically busy as you are the rest of the year! We've become so accustomed to an artificial life supported by artificial means that we've forgotten there are certain rhythms to life. Ignoring these rhythms creates problems with physical and emotional health. When we were "blessed" with the miracle of artificial light we lost connection with one of the most important rhythms of our life - the changing of the seasons. Our bodies are designed to correspond to the differences of the energy of each season, but with artificial light, we can ignore the fact that Winter is a time to rest from the hectic activity of the other seasons:
The seasons can be likened to the different times of day:
You wouldn't think of keeping the lights on and working 24 hours a day and going without sleep. So why do you think it's okay to work as hard, as long, and as energetically in the Winter as you do in the Summer? We don't get more colds and flu in the Winter because the weather's colder. I just returned from Hawaii with a cold. The temperature on the island was around the mid 80s. We get colds more often in the Winter because we don't honor our body's natural requirement for rest during that season. In the Northern hemispheres, October is the time to begin preparation for Winter. If you suffer from SAD, now is the time to begin your protcols. I invite you to include amongst those protocols a very critical look at your daily schedule to see what activities you can delete or reduce for the Winter. I offer these suggestions:
Give yourself permission to slow down in the winter. Your body will thank you. Love, ps. If you have methods you've used to overcome SAD, please share them with me so I can share them with others. The First DVD of the TV Series Is Now Available!
This first DVD is Chapter 1: Life Values and is a nice enhancement to the book. You'll get additional information that isn't covered in the book, not to mention enjoying some really cool props and visuals. I have a very limited amount right now, so it's first come, first serve. The price is $9.95 plus $4.95 shipping Feel Good Bonus: 20% of the price goes to PTTV to support them as they continue to offer swell programs like this to their viewing audience. Order it using PayPal here. Or call me at 253.853.4033. I accept VISA and Mastercard, as well as cash, checks, money orders, yachts, and airplanes. The next two shows are already "in the can", as they say in the biz. The DVDs will be available in a couple of weeks, if everything goes as scheduled.
Stay tuned...
