RESTORING YOUR ENERGY FOR LIFE

When you reignite your glow from within, you reignite your glow from without.

As women, it is no wonder our emotions get challenged over and over again throughout our years on earth. The vast hormonal changes as we move through the childbearing years; the dependable roles we take on as we raise children and young people while supporting our significant others and reaffirming our worth through our chosen professions and the often sudden emotional and physical toll on our bodies when we move into our later years.

The physical toll on our bodies and minds can manifest in disconnection, disillusionmentand a feeling of being held captive in lifestyles that are depleting us rather than restoring us. Our energy often ends up channeled into surviving, leaving us fatigued and our inner glow dimmed. Often, before we know it, we are struggling to find a way to restore balance that can seem completely out of our grasp. Remembering how to refill our own cups when we have spent most of our adult lives ensuring everyone else’s are kept full is one of the greatest challenges we face.

But the good news is that it can be restored. And all it requires is you, your willingness to be still and listen to your own bodyand your commitment to yourself as the central pillar of your world. That’s why this month we have asked Lucy Crane, founder of ‘The Restorative Alignment Method’ to share her top tips on how you can re-energise physically, spiritually, mentally and emotionallyand bring greater joy, purpose, fulfillment, peace and harmony to live your best life, whatever stage you are at in life.

“Happiness isn’t in what we find, it’s in what we feel.”

Tips for Total Energetic Realignment & Holistic Living

Aligning the Physical Body

Beginning with our diets, we can choose a healthy and wholesome way of balancing the way our bodies digest and metabolize. Replace poor snacking habits which can lead to exhaustion and physical depletion with a high percentage of wholesome, naturaland plant-based foods along with plenty of high-quality protein. Drink pure water throughout the day, limit caffeine intakeand give your digestive system a chance to reboot by allowing some hours of fasting every day.

Hand in hand with intentional eating goes physical exercise and the importance of moving our physical bodies with just the right amount of regularity and exertion.

If physical exercise isn’t a regular habit of yours, start by committing to a daily walk every morning and/or evening in nature. The effect of the natural world is profound and can give you a wonderful, uplifting yet calming boost of energy. It also influences our energetic vibration, aligning us to so much more abundance and happiness.

Aligning the Spiritual Body

Bringing a sense of calm and re-energisation to the entire nervous system begins with aligning the spiritual energetic system.

Meditation is the most powerful way to slow down the mind and the body. If you are new to meditation, try sitting in a comfortable position with your eyes closedand bring your attention to your breath. Slow your breathing while taking long, deep inhalesand then breathe out slowly. Begin with just five minutes of sitting and focusing on your breath each day, extending it to ten as you become more comfortable with the process.

If you feel that your energy still feels too flighty, grounding yourself will help no end. The best way to ground is to stand on the earth in bare feet. Try taking a walk in the garden first thing in the morning and let the fresh dew bathe your bare feet while you connect with the earth and the nature around you.

Aligning the Emotional Body

Breathing properly is one of the most underrated yet powerful ways of restoring a healthy mind-body balance. With that comes a sense of deep well being in your souland deep sense of groundedness in your emotions.

Inhale slowly, deep into your diaphragm to the count of four, hold for a count of twoand then count slowly to four again as you exhale. Do this every morning before you begin your day and any time you feel your emotions becoming charged or out of balance to quickly bring about a sense of peace, centrednessand inner equilibrium.

Aligning the Mental Body

The mental body is all about awareness and intentional living.

Using mindfulness meditation as a regular practice can help you to grow a general sense of mindfulness in your daily life. This includes the gentle method of focusing on your breath, as described above, but can also include walking meditation, in which you take time to notice everything from the feeling of each part of your foot touching the ground and leaving it again, to everything that surrounds you.

Mindfulness also means reaching within and learning to listen to the messages our body and intuition is telling us. When something doesn’t feel right, instead of fighting it, give that feeling space and honour it. It’s telling you something important.

Respecting the messages our intuition tells us helps us to live with greater clarity and intention - knowing what we want and don’t wantand being willing to voice those.

What it Means to Live an Aligned Life

Physical depletion and exhaustion can often be the result of the emotional, mental and spiritual energy systems having been wrung dry. This is where holistic realignment and restoration comes into play.

When you are able to recalibrate, restore and realign your life to one of true alignment (underpinned by intention and strategy), you no longer need to escapeand instead are able to breathe life back into yourself and your dreams. You will cultivate inner peace, radiating self-love, acceptance, happiness and health.

You will experience what living a life reflecting your true values feels like, opening your eyes to new opportunities, an elevated quality of life and an enriched sense of being.

You will trust in yourself, your choicesand your next moves, which will positively impact every area of your life, career, relationships and home.

And I promise…Your world and all that you are currently experiencing with it will change with you. When you reignite your glow from within, you reignite your glow from without. Alignment and Holistic Lifestyle Consultant - Lucy Crane
