Healing encompasses a comprehensive holistic approach, acknowledging the intricate web of factors that shape our well-being: our health, inheritance & genetics, environment, relationships, creativity, spirituality & self-care. Reverence is the deep respect & attention to the things that truly impact healing. Exploring is the journey into the deeper work, meeting the parts, wounds & survival strategies that keep us small, stuck & suffering with persistent symptoms & feelings.
1. Healing: Honouring four touch points of self-care in your day
When life becomes overwhelming, and all else fails, remember to ground yourself with these four daily rituals of self-care.
Rituals infuse our lives with structure and meaning, transforming mundane routines into purposeful acts. Unlike automatic habits, rituals are intentional and conscious practices that guide us through life's transitions and enhance our experiences. Whether personal or shared within cultural or religious contexts, rituals nurture a sense of harmony and order, helping us manage stress and maintain focus.
In moments of stress or uncertainty, when other coping mechanisms fall short, these touch points of self-care act as anchors. They provide a reliable framework to support our holistic healing journey, ensuring we remain connected to our inner selves. By ritualising these four essential practices, we create a sanctuary of well-being amidst the chaos.
Embrace these touch points to holistically heal and nurture your mind, body, soul and spirit:
i. Morning Ritual: Setting the Day’s Tone
ii. Lunch Ritual: Rejuvenating Midday Break
iii. End of Work Day or Afternoon Tea Ritual: Transitioning from Work or School to an Evening Wind-Down
