Choose True Health: Winter Solstice

12/1/2014

{Pivotal Winter Solstice} Did you know its Winter Solstice tonight? It’s true! The heart of Chinese Medicine is Yin and Yang. December 21st (Winter Solstice) is not only the shortest day and longest night; but, its a balance point of yin and yang. Winter is a time to slow down, reflect and gather. Our body innately wants to rest, store energy and even yes gain a little weight! Winter is the yin aspect of yin and yang. Conservation and reflection during the winter is key. Overexertion during the cold months may lead to sports injuries, arthritis, back pain, and sleep disturbances. The winter season requires introspection, reflection, conservation, gathering, and going easy on your body. As the seasons change, your body will require an outgrowth of energy. This is the natural ebb and flow that our body creates in circadian rhythms. Our energy decreases gently during the winter, requiring an outburst in Spring. I wanted to honor tonight by reflecting the importance of this pivotal point both in nature and our bodies. Supporting your yin aka winter energy is essential for harmonizing and balance! Love this shot I took in Laguna Beach! You can see the yin and yang perfectly! Cheers to the longest night of the year and the pivot point for Yang!
