Winter Cleanse
Do you wish you could embrace the beauty of winter and get your spark back at the same time?
What is jing? Jing is your life force energy. Traditional chinese medicine refers to jing as our essence – it’s what determines our level of vitality, resistance to dis-ease and longevity – once our jing runs out, life ceases.
Through food we can build ‘aquired’ jing and greatly magnify the jing we were born with. Additionally, we must preserve what we have by avoiding harmful habits.
The organ in our body that stores jing is the kidneys and the kidneys power time is in the winter season.
Winter is a sacred time for rejuvenating our jing!
It is ripe for going within to access the soul’s warmth. It’s also the perfect time to learn how to receive, for soul searching and to build fortitude (inside and out).
It is not about getting shit done, it’s about going within, finding solace and inner strength.
Wouldn’t it be amazing to harness the energy of winter for gathering resources, spiritual growth and healing- instead of bemoaning and wishing it to end?
Can you imagine setting this time aside as sacred – to rest, rejuvenate and restore your physical energy, so that you can really start living….now? Rather than losing energy to striving for a future payoff that is unlikely to manifest because of how hard you are pushing yourself?
This pushing energy is not only depleting, but it is actually repels what you desire.
Is this you?….
- dreading, resisting and hating the cold
- feeling tired to the bone
- can’t find your inspiration
- everything just feels like work these days (including relationships and even self care)
Are you staring to wonder what happened to that old sparkle in your eye- and it feels like you just can’t seem to access that part of you that really knows how to enjoy life (the way you used to). You might even feel like you’ve lost touch with your pleasure, and that your joy feels buried underneath responsibilities that you can barely keep on top of.
It’s possible that you are even experiencing symptoms of kidney deficiency like …..
- bone issues (especially in the knees and lower back)
- dental trouble and tooth decay
- hair loss, split ends and premature graying
- urinary issues
- reproductive issues
- loss of libido
- premature aging
- fear, anxiety and insecurity
- adrenal exhaustion
You’ve probably already tried eating clean, meditation, yoga, exercise, vacationing and even the spa, but nothing seems to really make a lasting difference.
At the end of the day, life feels hard and the stress is really getting to you.
Do you ever wonder if you should change the direction (theme or tone) of your life instead of resigning to feeling the need to take a vacation from it?
I’ve sooo been there sista! There was a time when I worried that I wouldn’t have the time to fulfill all my many passions and dreams (because I had so many of them)- I was soooooo inspired with ideas and energy for the life I desired to live. I had that spark, limitless vision and I spent countless hours delving into my many creative pursuits. And then after 17 years of a flatlined marriage, raising two young children and throwing all of myself into my work, I simply burnt out, gained 21 pounds in less than 2 months (literally obese by the BMI) and just lost interest in all of it. It felt like there was nothing new under the sun and worst of all, it felt like I missed the boat with so many unrealized aspirations. Underneath all of the responsibilities and expectations, my joy felt inaccessible.
To get back on my path I tuned back into my inner rhythms, seasonal rejuvenation, began to drop the shoulds, have to’s and everything else that was literally draining the life out of me.
I’m here to hold the space for you to do the same.
And that’s why I created the winter rejuvenation program….
