After the months of <\/span>movement, growth, and transformation of Spring<\/i><\/b>, there comes a moment when <\/span>the days grow even warmer and the light seems to take up even more space<\/span><\/i>, and <\/span>the desire to go out, meet people, experience new things, travel, create, celebrate, or simply enjoy life a little more may begin to grow.<\/b><\/p>\n\n

If you <\/span>are living through this moment, which may begin around November\/December in the Southern Hemisphere or May\/June in the Northern Hemisphere<\/i><\/b>, this is my first invitation to you:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n\n

Pause for a moment and feel<\/b> the atmosphere<\/em> around you. <\/span>Feel<\/b> how your body responds<\/em> to the heat, the light, the movement, and the stimulation<\/em>. <\/span>And most of all, notice: <\/span>How is your energy right now? <\/i><\/b>Do you feel good? <\/span>Does it feel expansive? <\/span>Restless? <\/span>Tired? <\/span>Full of desire and motivation? <\/span>Or perhaps already a little overwhelmed?<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n

Just feel, without analyzing too much or getting lost in your thoughts. Take a deep breath and let whatever comes up flow. <\/i><\/b>You do not need to decide immediately what to do with<\/em> this energy and\/or feeling. It is simply a reminder<\/em> for you<\/span> to begin to notice<\/em> <\/span>how it is showing up within you and how you are feeling today.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

When we think about <\/span>Summer<\/b>, our minds often go straight to holidays, travel, the beach, parties, gatherings, movement, fun, and a life<\/em> happening <\/span>outside.<\/i><\/b><\/p>

And yes, all of that can absolutely be part of it.<\/em><\/span> But when we begin to think about <\/span>summer self-care<\/b>, we may need to go back to a moment before all of that… to the very end of Spring.<\/em><\/strong> To what you felt you wanted to focus on, what felt aligned for you, and what you want to see shine this Summer… starting from within.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>

In <\/span>Traditional Chinese Medicine<\/b>, Summer is traditionally associated with the <\/span>Fire element<\/i><\/b> and with a more <\/span>Yang, active, warm, and expansive energy<\/i><\/b>. And Fire can bring more energy, but it can also burn or wear you down if it is not well directed.<\/strong> This season is also associated with the Heart and with themes such as movement, connection, and expression.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>

So, as a form of self-care, revisit your desires and how you want to use this energy so that excess does not end up consuming you.<\/strong> And to begin reflecting on \u2014 or simply feeling into \u2014 that, these questions may help:<\/em><\/p>

  • Do I truly have more energy, or am I simply surrounded by more stimulation?<\/b><\/li>
  • Do I actually feel like going out more?<\/b><\/li>
  • Do I want to be around more people, or spend more time on my own?<\/b><\/li>
  • Is my body asking for movement or rest?<\/b><\/li>
  • What is genuinely bringing me pleasure?<\/b><\/li>
  • What experiences do I truly want to have this Summer?<\/b><\/li>
  • Is there anything I am doing only because it feels like I \u201cshould be making the most of it\u201d?<\/b><\/li><\/ul>

    You do not need to have all the answers or ask yourself every question.<\/em> <\/span>Choose the ones that feel most meaningful to you<\/strong> and notice that <\/span>there is a big difference between <\/span>living fully<\/i><\/b> and simply <\/span>filling your life with even more stimulation because of Summer\u2019s energy. Keep observing yourself.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
