I'm now up to doing 15 minute morning meditations! It's starting to become a habit now. Finally. It's taken a lot of work but getting easier. I'm also starting to enjoy my walking once more. I started off early and ended up being out of a couple of hours. I put together a compilation of 19 photos from beginning to end.
I was pretty much thinking how important it is for me to map out my walking routes to get as much sun as I can whilst out. The sun is a big part of my stability. It's not a good idea to get too much here in Australia because of the extreme UV index, however it's still important to get sun none the less. I've been off my medications for a while now and I know what works for me and what does not. To get quality sun means getting it when it's low (here in Australia) and to do that effectively in suburbia mean picking streets that are not too obstructed and also originated like vegetable rows that get the maximum of sunlight. Topography also helps where streets are situated higher than others. The latter can be a bonus in high density areas prone to pollution but that's another story. It all adds up.
I know I must sound like a nutter at times but my passion to connect with the sun through direct exposure, eating plants and so on really is a huge part of me keeping off meds. It's not just the beneficial chemical process that take place, there is a heightened level of consciousness that helps me to supersede all the toxins I have no control over and also offsets the permanent damage that's already been done. The sun and being out under it for long enough periods to experience the changing levels is where it's at. It's not just about exposing yourself but how you connect with it. I try to explain:
I know a fair bit about the benefits of cardiovascular exercise and nutrition when it comes to addressing ones health. It kind of all falls apart when you try to relate all that to simply losing weight. Cycles are critical to long term health. In terms of stability when looking into long term weight loss with the focus on maintaining → Cortisol levels is where it's at. STRESS. The best way to regulate stress as long term is a natural lifestyle that allows for changing levels ... just as how everything that thrives in natures does. Our modern way of living is to keep us comfortable and on an even keel 24/7. To keep us balanced all the time. The whole concept on stabilizes levels is actually making humans weaker and more depended on modern medicine.
Enough said. Point is ... 20 minutes in the sun is not really giving you the benefit of chaining levels. I know I can gain as much a connection to the sun walking in either twilight or dusk if I have been spending a few hours or even a few 20 minutes bouts at different times of the day. In fact ... 30 minutes in the early morning, with 30 mid morning or mid afternoon and then 30 minutes in the evening can pretty much be the primmer to put anyone back anyone back into sync that's suffering with sleep issues. It's all about being exposures to the different light intensity/frequency/temperature as the size rises and then sets.
That is only one aspect ... but it's the place to start and doing it with the simple act of walking with this knowing in your heart is a sure fire way to keep even the saddest of us living with rays of hope! Just include it on top of what your already doing and if you do it long enough with a passion to lift your spirits I promise you ... you'll always go back to it despite ongoing issues that life throws at us. I know I do!!! Each time I go back to it, the healing effects just get better each time.

Srry for the ramble. Is about time for me ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZssss I'm not quite perfecting everything ... just utilizing the knowing that comes to me naturally as I keep getting back up and redoing what I know works so well for me. I guess it all comes back to that realization that we are in fact the light.
Sometimes it's just that we need to actually go and stand in the light in order to feel what it feels like in order that we can make such a connection.
Whatever works for you guys. There's a lot more to living naturally in a toxic world. It never used to be this complicated - but if there is one piece of advice I could give no matter what or where anyone is at ... that is your looking to make changed that last ... then commit to a walking routine that gets you out 3 times a day. Start small like with twice a day and maybe just pop out into the back yard to sit in the sun. Just break things up a bit is all.
Adios ... until next post.
