What goes up must come down. ⚖️✨
It is a law of nature, and one that applies just as much to our nervous system, our energy, and our emotional world as it does to the tides and the seasons.
When your energy dips, how do you respond? Do you reach for constant stimulation, scrolling, sugary treat, background noise or TV, anything to avoid the quiet, or do you allow yourself true downtime and space to simply be? ☁️🫧✨
For many people, slowing down can feel deeply uncomfortable, and sometimes even scary. When things go quiet, we are left with ourselves, our thoughts, our sensations, and the parts of us that are often drowned out by busyness. So it makes sense that we try to fill the space rather than sit with it. 🌸
But healing often requires that pause. It asks us to soften, to stop pushing, and to allow the body and nervous system the conditions they need to recalibrate. Sometimes this looks as simple as sitting outside and watching the clouds pass by, letting the nervous system gently unwind, and allowing yourself to be in a lower state of energy without immediately trying to fix or override it.
The body is a complex and intelligent system that thrives on balance. Highs and lows, activity and rest, gentle stress followed by genuine recovery all play a role in maintaining health and resilience. Honouring this rhythm also means supporting and replenishing the body with the right herbs, nutrients, nourishment and care, particularly during times of lower energy, emotional strain, or increased demand. 🌿
When we don’t allow quality downtime, or we continue to push without proper support, the system never fully resets. Over time, this can contribute to burnout, emotional exhaustion, depression, disease, or feeling stuck in a prolonged low state.
This is something I love supporting people with in my work. If you’re feeling unsure where to start or need help to begin feeling better, I offer thoughtful guidance, carefully selected herbal and nutritional support and genuine care. 💗
