We seem to suffer from the delusion that slowing down at this time of year is counterproductive.
When actually nothing could be further from the truth.
The Tao Te Ching explains that there are two opposing forces in the universe Yin and Yang.
Yang is daylight, Yin is night. Yang is activity, Yin is rest. Yang is productivity,
Yin is restoration.
And for ourselves to be healthy, balanced, and peaceful, we should be half one and half the other.
Winter is the season of Yin.
It is the Earth's time of rest, darkness, and importantly conservation.
Studies have shown that our DNA actually changes with the seasons. And our bodies metabolism also slows down during winter!
BEGIN THE WINTER WIND DOWN.
🍂 Slow down your daily pace.
🍂 Find time to relax.
🍂 Nourish your Soul by finding something to bring a smile every day.
🍂 Focus on what's important today, tomorrow never comes.
FOLLOW THE FLOW UNTIL SPRING.
