I'm no mermaid, so no cold water therapy for me
I'm having a hard time as it is trying to keep my own feet warm
Think four pairs of socks and hot water bottle
My water element is out of balance
My emotions are all over the place from grief
For me it's a dreadful feeling of fear, lethargy, rage and tears
Our dietary needs are related to the current season and it's element
Water is the element that is associated with Winter
Eating foods from the sea that are rich in the water element is supportive
Water element is connected to your bladder and kidneys
Both these organs require a healthy flow of water through your system
Winter and the Water element offer us lots of meditative space for rest and reflection
A chance to practice what we observe in Nature - stillness and conservation
What this means for me is there are days when I can neither get washed or dressed
I won't pretend for one second it's stillness and conservation
It's grief
I sit in despair, pure despair
And the rage comes when people try to tell me how to feel, what to feel, and what to do
I'm my own worse enemy at the moment as it is
It's nourishment I need, not punishment
Understanding the five elements through my Energy Medicine practice soothes my logical mind
The body is slower than the mind
So I brought myself here - to Loch Fyne - to show myself I care about me
Is now a good time for you to focus on your health - physical, mental, emotional or spiritual?
