Part 2

Autumn—Reflection and Harvest

It’s a time to look deeper still. This is a season of re-evaluating. You will be enjoying further benefits from the previous seasons—physically, emotionally and spiritually. But, it’s also a time of preparation and shifting mindsets. Renewing your mind brings real, lasting transformation.

Health Focus:

Cleansing – This is a time to harvest and enjoy the results of your efforts and what you have so diligently been working towards. It’s also a time to reassess and look ahead by letting go, detoxing, cleaning out the old (old mindsets, old ways, etc.), “reorganizing” and supporting body systems.

• Physically
  • Cleanse/detox: sugar detox, 7-10 day detox plans, elimination plans, add juicing
  • Boost your immune system
  • Support struggling or “weaker” body systems – gut health, liver health, lower inflammation
• Emotionally
  • Reflect on your progress and journey – what’s working, what isn’t
  • Reorganize and plan for next season changes you’d like to see
  • Be thankful for accomplishments, opportunities, and all the blessings of your life!
• Spiritually
  • Reflect on personal growth and seek deeper understanding and revelation in your faith
  • Reassess mindsets and attitudes –Where do you need to “let go” to move forward? Where do you need to shift your focus?

Winter—Rest and Renewal

This is a quiet season. Not necessarily inactive, but it’s a time of refreshing and recovery…often from burnout. It’s ok (and essential) to slow down, stop and take care of YOU.

Health Focus:

Healing – This is a time to pause with a specific focus on rest and rejuvenation. It may require a more focused therapeutic plan for healing and rejuvenation.

• Physically
  • Prioritize slower-paced living, rest, sleep and recovery
  • Light, gentle, enjoyable exercise
  • Focus on therapeutic, nourishing foods and nutritional supplements
• Emotionally
  • Embrace taking care of your needs
  • Focus on stress management
  • Address lingering emotional issues and focus on heart healing
  • Prioritize times of quiet to refresh and renew emotions and mental capacities
• Spiritually
  • Deepen and/or renew the roots of your faith
  • Focus on promises of healing and renewal

Do either of these seasons resonate with you? 

What area(s)—physically, emotionally, or spiritually—need to be addressed during this season for you?

How can recognizing the season you are in help you to settle into and move forward in Cleansing or Healing?

Part 3 next week puts all the pieces together with some practical tips for moving through your seasons of the health cycle.
