I've noticed I havent been able to write anything for over two weeks now, which is about the same time the weather started to take a turn for the more wet. As much as I really appreciate the rain, I'm very aware that my body does not like wet damp weather combined with cold air, this is why I left the UK for sunnier skies. This Winter was the mildest yet and I was honestly so thankful but also a bit concerned, because it was actually a bit hotter and drier than normal. The seasons seem to be changing and now at the beginning of spring it feels like November.
The correlation between the levels of direct sunlight I receive and my mood and motivation are quite obvious. Since living in a world of stormy skies, my mental and physical health has taken a turn for the worst. I have chronic muscle pains despite the fact I still try to stretch, yoga and walk, im just not motivated to sit uncomfortably at my desk, I have not been able to complete some basic tasks which is affecting my pay cheque situation.
I've notcied the world has gone crazier and I've been assessing what is important to me, what I want to be doing and focusing on in my time. And where I want to be going. I'm hoping for sunnier skies soon so this seasonal affective disorder can ease off and I can return to at least a neutral equilibriam
The spring flowers give some color to my life, and im glad they are enjoying the rain. I've noticed that all the flowers bloomed earlier this year too, ive read that could be a bad thing for pollinators who are still hibernating.
To be honest this equinox has caught up with me fast, the passing of time seems to accelerate as you roll through life, years can pass by incredibly fast, and I honestly dont know where some of its gone, as much as i'd like to seize every moment, you also need to be kind to yourself. I accept and allow for the fact that some things take time and some rest and recovery is needed! Everyone seems very excited for the new energy but I feel a little delayed but thats ok it will come soon I hope!
Let me know how you are getting on...are you feeling refreshed for the new celestial year!
