Self-Care Affirmations

Winter is here in all her glory, just as longer, warmer days embrace the Southern hemisphere. The Earth in all her wisdom, seeks balance between the hemispheres. Our human bodies also look for balance, especially after the recent retrograde events that shook many to their core. Past trauma, old memories and stuffed emotions are stirred up. Winter, a time to go inward, invites us to dive deeper into past wounds, to redefine who we are to heal and move forward into 2023 lighter, clearer, and resonant to all the things we desire.

The Earth is transforming. We see it in our weather, from droughts, floods, fires and so many other Natural Disasters. We call them disasters because of the way they affect us humans, yet we could also view them as a way Mother Earth rebalances herself. Our bodies are the representation of Earth.

As the year 2022 progresses, many of us sense pressure in all aspects of our being. Somedays it feels that mind, body, emotions, and spirit are being forced into a corner. When the outer world challenges us, we may feel trapped or that there is no way out. If you find yourself stuck in a corner, there is no choice but to go within.

As our days or nights reach their pinnacle of the longest day of light or dark, we seek balance with the Earth. The longest day in the North, embraces all the light within us. This light illuminates all the places we still carry darkness, a potent reminder to seek healing and light. As dark slowly returns, bless it, it is ready to be seen and guided to the light, for illumination.

As things in the world re-open and we emerge from our Covid cocoons, many report experiencing day-to-day activities differently than in the past. The pressure of everyday life has been intense and turbulent at times, often oscillating between high vibrational days and new lows, deeply felt and oft times confusing. There is a sense of being pushed and pulled at the same time, often raising questions about whether we are being called to up-level our life on Earth. What does this mean, how do we do it? Fortunately, we have been preparing for this and have tools at hand to transform current circumstances to a softer, kinder situation in our being.

The season of Winter is here. Whether you live in the Southern or Northern Hemispheres, light is the common theme. If you live in the Southern Hemisphere the light grows stronger and longer day by day. Let this light fill you up to illuminate all your gifts so you can share them with the world.

In autumn our world becomes darker here in the Northern Hemisphere. As the Sun rests, we are also being called to rest and realign, and to create more nourishing light within ourselves to shine out into the World. Remember the power of your Acutonics tools to bring light. When we take care of ourselves first, we have more to give, which is very important as we move into the giving season. Take the time now to care for yourself, create a regular routine to follow, use your intuition to discern what you most need at every level, body, mind, and spirit, then act on it. Peace, love, and kindness are qualities that start within, as we become them, we are better able to share them as we move through our daily lives. The World needs more of these qualities, starting with you. Give them to yourself today!

What points on your body are asking to be activated? Trust your intuition and yourself. YOU are peaceful!

As we experience lights return, and emerge from isolation to gather with friends, enjoy the warmth of companionship and the blessings of an abundant garden. This season is a time to open our hearts and embrace the Fire Element emotion, which is pure joy, or Le
