Spring Inspired


Though not fully present, the spring weather is weaving it's way into the days of left-over winter. For most of us, we can barely wait to get to enjoy all that comes along with this fantastic season of rebirth, renewal and of course spring cleaning. We throw open the windows and for the first time in months, address the dust bunnies that have collected up high, and the grime that has accumulated down low. We straighten the closets and rotate the wardrobe, purge the old and infuse with new. On the days the sun shines, we rake, prune, cutback and make way for new growth to move in. Ah the joy of a spring! The mark of a fresh environment indoors and out.

About the time that we are through with our spring clean-up, we return to our closets to find that the clothes that, yes, are fun and colorful; are also sleeveless, shorter, tighter, and a bit more revealing. Suddenly the truth that the ceiling fans and baseboards weren't the only things that went unaddressed this past season becomes apparent. This is the point where the joy of spring fades into the realize that there are only a number of weeks until the swimwear, shorts and tanks come out. Spring suddenly becomes less about the reveal of new daffodils, and more about the what these limited-coverage apparels are going to reveal about a less exciting form of new growth we've taken on.

The truth is that the winter season has it's way of creating some not-so-desirable shifts in the most intimate environment of all-our internal environment. If we take a look, many of us will find that the undesirable changes go beyond physical form. In fact, our mental, spiritual, relational, (and with the economy) perhaps even our financial form has shifted over the past few months. So throughout this season, I can't express how excited I am to bring wellness offerings to life through blogging. Spring is one of the most phenomenal and impressive natural transformations. I believe we can draw on the undeniable energy spring lends to help us address our lives current state. As we redirect our thoughts and actions to cultivate a life of higher consciousness, connectedness, inspiration and purpose; we will discover the state that moves us to make decisions that support what we are to truly in this life to do.

This spring decide to find something more than just new found spring energy that sizzles out-find it to be the the start (or restart) of sustainable lifestyle practices that open up the door to your best life.
