Charging up your summer energy

Summer is the season of Fire Energy, tied to expansion, to company, to warmth, to the sun, to the high point of coming out of ourselves and into the world!

All of this — movement, action, warmth, contact with the elements of Nature, interaction with other people — gives us energy, motivation, spirit, strength, the will to carry on and to embrace the world in all its potential.

Summer is when we charge our inner batteries, to get ready for the season that follows!

Summer is colour, abundance and creativity!

The land brings us a variety of fruit and vegetables that turn our plates into a palette worthy of a real artist, feeding body and soul alike!

From the beach to the countryside, the hills and the rivers, there are endless activities, experiences and sports to explore, building us up physically and emotionally, creating a catapult of energy that amplifies and throws us much further!

Everyday activities count too, work included — this is the time for jobs outdoors, for getting your hands dirty, for letting that bodily energy out on the DIY, the summer cleaning and the painting!

In the middle of all this energy come the countless summer parties and events, the friends who visit, the reunions, all feeding this Yang energy of strength and movement even further!

It is the time for travelling, for holidays and for discovering new places, which feed the soul and already have us asking — when is the next discovery? :-)

Balancing this strong summer energy matters a great deal, so we do not fall into sheer exhaustion! Rest, take a nap :-) if the heat gets fierce, eat light meals, release the built-up energy and tension in the water or on the earth, barefoot and in contact with Nature!

Enjoy this beautiful season and charge up your energy!
