Building resilience in times of big change

Words JESSICA BOOTH

It has never been more important to take stock of our reality, and ourselves. Aura-Soma ® is a selfselective colour care system that puts you back at the centre of your wellbeing. Aura-Soma founder and innovator Vicky Wall would say “no one knows you better than yourself”, and this of course is true. Reconnecting with ourselves is the best way to deal with change and unrest and building our own resilience is paramount. AuraSoma encourages you to take time to connect, inwardly and outwardly, and follow your own intuition.

The human ability to adapt to change is incredible, our strength and resilience in trying times shines through. Whilst we might struggle to see the best in difficult circumstances, remember, there is always more than meets the eye.

Whether you’re in a city, town or village, try to take note of your surroundings. Mindfulness practices encourage us to pause and really notice where we are. Whilst there might not be an abundance of nature around you, try to enjoy your surroundings and find new meaning in where you live.

Meditate

If you can meditate, do. Why not try introducing an Aura-Soma Pomander or Quintessence into your meditation routine? Access your portal of pure peace at times of high stress by practising meditation and mindfulness. From a spiritual perspective an ability to access the universal consciousness will feed your soul.

Keep a diary

In adjusting to the change, and all the intricacies that come with that, keeping a diary or journal is a great way to come to terms with each day. Writing in a stream of consciousness can lead us to better self-understanding and noting down bits and pieces from our day can remind us of how resilient we are.

Set a daily intention

At the start of each day – it will help refocus you and keep you aligned with your values while boosting the energy you emit to others.

Reach out to your local community

What can you do to help others? What skills do you have that can be used for more than just making money right now? Not only will you be doing your bit, by focussing on others you’ll help reduce your own stress levels.

Let yourself off the hook

It’s ok to feel low, exhausted, emotional – we’re in a big period of readjustment. Be kind to yourself, sit, take note, let it out, know you’re not the only one and ‘this too shall pass’. Aura-Soma custodian Mike Booth recently reminded us that to help us ‘reset’, “the White Pomander brings light into the auric field and protects us at an electromagnetic level across the spectrum of vibrations that is necessary at this point in time”.

Remember, some of the most important changes aren’t possible to see with the naked eye. Be kind to yourself, allow yourself the time to adjust, obtain perspective and create the bigger picture.
