During this Fall season, along with remembering to rest, might we also consider how to stay balanced? What can you do to add a sense of balance along with your daily activities? When dealing with medication side effects and not feeling well, along with daily responsibilities, it's difficult to remember to keep a restful spirit and maintain balance. And, what does balance feel like?
Balance is stability of body and mind. In today's terms we tend to think of stability as money in the bank, a nice home, a good job, and healthy relationships. If any of the above are missing, then there is an imbalance in our harmony and equilibrium. How can we rest when this happens?
Remember this, when we feel that there is unrest and imbalance happening in any moment of our lives, it's because we are forgetting that we have the power to change any dynamic that may be occurring by simply stopping, stepping away from the situation, realizing what our inner dialogue is, and consciously changing the thought process. And, if that isn't enough, call your coach, a family member, a minister, a friend or a neighbor to add a layer of support. I sometimes silently chant things like: I am stable in body and mind, I am balanced, I am harmony and equilibrium! Try it -- it works.
If you can think of anything else tell us...
