This week is all about new beginnings; with the Summer Solstice, a New Moon and the Sun moving into loving, intuitive and emotional Cancer – I say let the fun and games begin!
With the Summer picking up pace, I will be changing things up a little bit so that we can all get outside and enjoy the lovely weather and activities; we are all busy, but we can make the most of it by staying present, enjoying each and every moment with your friends and family. I personally have found this past year that in order for me to be more present I need to disconnect from social media more often and It all started several years ago when I implemented the no phones at dinner rule in my house for the sake of actually connecting with my family; connecting for real and having real conversations.
So much has been gained and lost through technology. Yes, it is fabulous; anything that we need to know is right at our fingertips, we are connected with everyone, business delivers at lightning speed rates; yet we no longer talk to people face to face (except for Facetime or Skype), we do not get outside and experience life either, we are in our homes with the cable on and phone in hand constantly plugging away. The larger unfortunate side of this is that the obesity rate has gone from 11% in 1980 to a whopping 69% in 2017 (stats are for the United States) , Globally the numbers are lower at about 50%.
Summer is the perfect time to put those phones down and get outside and play, eat the seasonal fruits and vegetable that are abundant. This, the week of new beginnings, is a perfect time to implement some new and healthier habits.
So, with that said, I will be keeping the Weekly Wisdom videos shorter and only choosing a card or two each week for the theme of the week’s energy. I need to trim back a bit so that I too can get outside more; I need some fun in the sun and beach time.
Don’t forget to make your New Moon Wishes and include some new, fun habits!
Here is your Weekly Wisdom video -enJOY xoxo Kim
