Moving towards a change in seasons gives spiritually sovereign parents an opportunity to re-evaluate our family’s needs, and optimize for success. And, as society continues to undergo deep shifts and transitions, it is essential, as parents, that we transmute any fatigue stress that sneaks into our homes.
Fatigue Stress
Fatigue stress is a term used by marine engineers that describes how any size of ship can sink when it takes too many hits from large waves to any particular part of the hull.
When the world spins its weary narratives day after day, it can be so easy to energetically sink, to get lost in old comfort patterns and deflect to a ‘just getting by’ baseline of operating, when actually, our prime directive as spiritually sovereign leaders is to maintain a resolute posture of offensive purpose in spite of the worldly appearances that would like to siphon our life force.
Build Out Your Vision
We have the opportunity to create a micro-world for our children where they can entrain to the frequencies of hope, creativity, safety, beauty, and joy despite what is going on on the bigger world stage.
We are world-makers.
We are universe-igniters.
We are soul-protectors.
When the world appears darker, we go bigger, louder, and more committed.
There’s not more darkness in the world than there was before, it’s simply coming to light. This is a good thing, and means we need to muster our resolve to keep shining, keep creating, keep innovating.
As we anticipate launching into a new season, it can be so beneficial to do a quick family energy inventory before making big changes, or adding new things to our schedule.
- Where am I (the parent) struggle most right now? How can I love myself through this?
- Where am I (the parent) winning the most right now? How can I amplify this energy?
- Where is my child struggling the most right now? How can I best guide them through this?
- Where is my child winning the most right now? How can I support this energy?
- Where is my partner struggling the most right now? How can I be a beneficial presence?
- Where is my partner struggling the most right now? How can I bring more celebration into our connection?
- Where does our home/atmosphere need attention, tweaking, help?
- Where does our schedule need attention, tweaking, change?
- Are there relationships that we need to mute or amplify in the next season?
- What’s one big, new thing I am ready to explore?
Tune-up Time
It is also of great importance that you tune-up your body, mind, and spirit, so that you are in optimal working order to face unexpected challenges. Consider what you can subtract from your life what is draining, and what you can add to generate resiliency and radiance.
Here is a list of suggestions to get you started:
- Get at least 20 minutes of sunshine daily.
- Move every day. Rebounding (mini-trampoline) and walking are two of the best places to start.
- Quit alcohol, smoking, drugs, porn.
- Eat more vegetables.
- Stop eating at 7 p.m. daily.
- Clear time for daily conversation and contact with your partner.
- Nurture your heart + connection with the Divine.
- Stop carrying your phone around the house.
- Take a B-complex supplement daily (this is critical for optimal energy, regardless of your diet).
- Clean up the spaces that are energetically draining you.
Conclusion
The season ahead is full of opportunities for those who are making health and visionary-living a priority.
Regardless in what happens in the social narrative, we continue to build quietly in the background. Because, there will come a day when your light, your family, and your mission is called upon to serve the earth in bigger ways than you are now aware of.
Don’t get distracted by the noise. Don’t get disheartened by the news.
Stand in the gap for your children, and create a season that shows them what real life is all about.
