Product Description
Do you ever feel as if life is an uphill struggle, that everything seems an incredible effort, while you are expected to be a bright, successful superperson all the time? In The Natural Year, Jane Alexander suggests that this feeling of imbalance comes about because we are almost all living very unnatural lives – pitting ourselves against the natural rhythms of the year. We have lost the concept of life’s natural cycles: there are times to be bright and cheerful but equally there are times when it is better to retreat and focus inwards.
Drawing on a wide variety of disciplines and therapies, from the great ancient healing systems of traditional Chinese medicine, Ayurveda and the Western system of naturopathy, to the old festivals of the Celtic year which form the basis of modern paganism, The Natural Year leads you through the seasons, offering guidance on diet, exercise and issues you might address in your personal and professional life.
Through a comprehensive range of natural therapies that include:
* massage and aromatherapy in Spring, the season of the Body
* Rolfing and zero balancing in Summer, the season of the Emotions
* feng shui and I Ching in Autumn, the season of the Mind
* light therapy and rebirthing in Winter, the season of the Soul
Recently updated with new and additional material, Jane Alexander returns you gently to the natural wheel of life, living in tune and in balance with the seasons, and with the ever-shifting cycle of life.
