In this blog's hiatus Small Wonder Counseling has been in a steady hum with health restorations in those attending the practice. Thanks to all for the participation involved in consultation, psychotherapy and clinical supervision.
As we step into the holiday season which holds anywhere from cynicism to behaviors symptomatic of mental illness in the underbelly of joy, I write to share teachings which have arrived for me through my work with others.
One is, we are what we eat. As simple as that sounds, it is true as food makes our body which also houses our mind. Our neurobiology depends on our food and fluids intake.
Other is, we are how we sleep. As complex as it could become, it is a simple process of restoration through rest. Our bodymind is detoxed, cleared, repaired as we sleep, including dense matter such as organs and bones in stages 3 and 4 - returning us to our beautiful alert mind in an invigorated body.
Let's note our cycle of how we eat, how we live when awake and how we sleep as we engage in our days ahead. Best wishes for a healthy new year!
