How did you feel? Was it easy to wake up and journal, exercise, meditate?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Chances are you wanted to sleep in longer<\/strong>, you were more tired and possibly less motivated. Then as the weeks passed, as the spring energy arrived, energy increased as did motivation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Creative Energy of the Summer Solstice Season<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the season of the summer solstice, of fireworks and bonfires, you may find yourself waking before your alarm, your body literally responding to light like a plant reaching for the sun.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What a blessing, to have so much creative energy and potential to work with.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Winter is the Season of the Water Element\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now think back to January again. Although you may not have jumped out of bed at 5AM to get your creative time in (and kudos to you if you did), you may recall an enhanced ability to drop into that quiet, creative, inward space.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Winter is the season of the water element, which gives us access to an inner knowing of what wants to be said or written. You may even have felt like your writing wrote itself, as though you were channeling the words from the beyond.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Fiery Energy and Writing\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AND, the fire element season is more OUTWARD, more social, even more chaotic or anxious.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>This outward, gregarious, extroverted,<\/strong> fiery energy can make it hard to tap into that quiet, productive, creative, plumbing our creative depths energy that many writers (and anyone with big plans or projects) feel supported by. AND if you\u2019re a fire element personality type, this quiet focus can feel even more elusive.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You might be thinking, that\u2019s great, thanks for sharing, but what do I do about this when I feel more fiery and unfocused in the summer?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to Balance the Fiery Creative Energy\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The suggestion here is to balance the fire with water.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>And YES on some level,<\/strong> it does mean giving yourself adequate water intake, making sure that you\u2019re nourishing your body\u2019s physiological ability to cool itself, for your heart and mind to calm and focus itself by hydrating.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It could also involve looking at water, getting INTO water for a bath or a swim or listening to the sounds of water.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nourishing water in your life also looks like getting adequate sleep and doing the work of improving your sleep, if it\u2019s a struggle.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Sleep hygiene is the work of shutting off screens<\/strong>, scaling back on how late you caffeinate and avoiding stressful conversations right before bed, all to cultivate the body\u2019s ability to more easily fall or stay asleep.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Watery activities like meditating, napping, daydreaming about the next chapter of a story you\u2019re conjuring up, or listening to music all will help nourish the water element.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have Your Creative Cake\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a creative person myself, I love to support people to have their creative cakes and eat them too. NOW is the time to tap into the creative, yang potential of the fiery summer AND the water element will help us to focus it to complete the task at hand.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Need Support with your Creative Energy?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are you someone who REALLY struggles with focus in the summer or throughout the year?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>You might benefit from my \u201cGet Grounded,<\/strong> Get Centered, Heart Opening Meditation\u201d, designed to help you access calm and nourish the heart, the organ of the fire element and summertime.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can access this meditation <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariebowseracupuncture.com\/get-centered-meditation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">HERE<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">***<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ABOUT THE AUTHOR\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Bowser-Square-Crop.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-23083\" title=\"Bowser Square \" src=\"https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Bowser-Square-Crop-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Bowser Square \" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Bowser-Square-Crop-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Bowser-Square-Crop-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Bowser-Square-Crop-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Bowser-Square-Crop-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Bowser-Square-Crop-640x640.jpg 640w, https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Bowser-Square-Crop-80x80.jpg 80w, https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Bowser-Square-Crop-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Bowser-Square-Crop.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariebowseracupuncture.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Marie Bowser, L.Ac.<\/a><\/strong> helps creative, sensitive, driven people to create easeful, deeply-satisfying, abundant lives.
