Listen To Episode 705 As Josh Trent Answers Your Questions [06:00] Honor The SeasonsWhen it comes to honoring the seasons, you're either honoring the season or you're not. There's no trying to honor the season. You either are honoring it or you're not.
So what if I told you this? What if I told you that if you feel stuck or if you feel like life isn't working out in the way that you planned it to be, that it's not a failure? It's actually just a season that you need to honor.
And actually not even that you need to honor, that you get to honor if you don't want to get sick. Because anytime that we need to do something or we should do something, there's a shaming energy there. So what am I saying?
In this podcast, we're going to go over resistance to the seasons, what the seasons are, how to align yourself and really how you can use the wisdom of these seasons to live your dream, right? Which is the title of this video of this podcast.
So let's start with the winter season. Winter season, we're in it right now. And I don't know about you, Mar, but I love winter. It's actually really fun to get cozy and like be by a fire and I can wear warm clothes. It's cool. I really like it. Some people just live in Hawaii and they're like, I skip all the shitty seasons. I just want to live on an island, you know? But not all of us.
Okay, so you like to surf, but surfing in cold water is pretty fun and there's there's there's beauty in the winter. I feel like winter season is teaching us something to when not just as a season, but also the temperature of winter, which for me, I've been avoiding it my whole life.
I was always like, no, I'm never gonna live somewhere that's cold. Right now where I live, it gets chilly, but it's not as cold, like there's no snow or anything. But even surfing in cold water, it teaches you a lot. So sometimes I have moments when I feel cold and I start sort myself to feel warmer.
But when I do it, I feel like I tell my body, I'm cold and you need to get out. And I started noticing there are certain behaviors and kind of like unconscious things that I do that make me feel even colder.
And so when I stopped doing that, and I stopped focusing on the cold, and I just let it be cold, and just, it's just a sensation in the body. It doesn't really mean that much. It's just discomfort. And when I just let it be, it feels like I can just let go and be in the cold, like accept the cold for being cold and not being bad.
Yeah, I remember when I used to surf, I would get cramps in the cold and that would be my cue to go in, which is funny because we're going to talk about winter, which is inward.
So life has these seasons and I love the seasons because they each bring us unique wisdom. I actually learned about these seasons from Anahata Ananda in Sedona in 2018.
And the Native American culture has the seasons that they honor with behaviors and foods and also the medicine wheel, which is a profound concept of just like walking the medicine wheel to get true on what's real for you.
And so if life, just like nature, moves in seasons, the winter, spring, summer, fall, how can we look at nature and design our life the way we think and the way we behave so that nature is actually this beautiful teacher for us...
[19:45] Fall SeasonSo there's foods that we can consume during the seasons that are in harmony with nature. And then there is ways of being or ways of thinking. So summer is like, get to it. Summer is when you want to take action.
Now, when it comes to fall, fall is really interesting because the trees start changing color. There's this premonition of what's coming, which is winter, right? The cold is coming, the winter is coming. So it's about preparation.
It's about, okay, what have I done this year that's so amazing I can actually reward myself. I gave myself gratitude in the summer. I learned what worked and what didn't work. Now how can I actually reap the rewards of all of my efforts? How do I bring in the harvest? How do I bring in the squashes, the pumpkins, the zucchinis?
How can I eat these foods that are so beautiful in the fall that actually are in the wisdom of nature because they grow so plentifully, right? They're just out there for everyone to harvest. That's why the harvest time, Thanksgiving, and whether you're in alignment with Thanksgiving or not from a political standpoint is none of my concern.
But really what I think Thanksgiving is, is like honoring the harvest. We've worked through winter, we've worked through spring, now we're in the summer, then we're in the fall. Like we've worked a lot. And so in the fall, it's actually this preparation for the inward time.
So here's something actionable that's on the screen right now. Take time to express gratitude and reflect on what is really working for you that worked in the summer and what are the lessons that you learned by supporting yourself with people that loved you by learning the people that didn't have your best interests in mind?
What's the wisdom that's wanting to come through in the fall? What's your favorite fall food to eat? What do you love to eat in the fall when the leaves change? Pumpkin soup. I think that's good. Yes, it's amazing. It's like the most comforting, delicious food is so healthy and warm. I think that's like the full, the full meal. I love it.
And then when we eat these foods, it actually brings us closer to nature. If we didn't have grocery stores, have you ever thought about this, Mar? If we didn't have grocery stores that brought us like avocados in the winter and raspberries in the winter from like, you know, Peru or wherever they're coming from to the United States, we wouldn't be eating these foods.
So there is something to pay attention to here in the wisdom of Native American culture to honor the seasons of your life and to honor the foods that match those seasons. Write in the comments below or send us a message: podcast@wellnessandwisdom.com. If you resonated with this, share what season you're in, what season of your life do you feel like you're in?
They may or may not be perfectly aligned to the seasons of nature like I said earlier, sometimes life presents us with summertime activities in the winter and vice versa, right? Every season has its purpose. Winter is preparing you for spring. Without rest in the winter, you cannot grow. There's no way you can grow.
So align yourself with the rhythm, the circadian rhythm of the sun and the moon, and also the way that the earth spins, which creates the seasons, and give yourself some grace as you navigate this space...
