It’s
been a great summer and I don’t want it to end….perhaps because I am still
trying to get caught up with the weeding LOL. So, now is the time to be
finishing up those loose ends and mucking out the summer stuff…
The
one word that stands out to me here is END. In lots of ways when September
arrives – this signals change – some kids go back to homeschool and lessons and the seasons
shift into shorter days.
These
day lengths are very important to those of us walking the spiritual path for
many reasons the least of which is our top up of vitamin D that keeps up
healthy throughout these coming cooler (and darker) months.
So….why
might I be mentioning vitamin D, light and changing seasons to those who are
seeking spiritual endeavours, you might be wondering…well, travelling these
roads and staying healthy has long been associated with immune system function.
There
are perils and pitfalls nearly everywhere, but none as dangerous and
significant as those of a spiritual nature. I have often heard it said how
there is no disease but only ‘dysfunction of the spirit’ and I tend to agree.
Our
physical body, spiritual essence, energetic and emotional selves are not kept
separate from one another. These are integral pieces of a whole being – where
if one aspect is pulled down, the entire organism suffers as a result.
One
of the things I am planning to do during these last few warmish days of late
summer is to exercise, get outside as much as possible, drink my herbal
remedies on my fast days and to continue to enjoy the summer harvest that is
emerging from the weeds…..
I am
also shifting my thinking into ways and means to continue to boost my immune
system over the coming darker months….perhaps I will make up a new remedy
(smile).
