Even mindedness. 
 
Earth season is about walking the middle path.

Walk barefoot on the Earth
 
Even mindedness is the capacity to accept whatever comes with the wisdom that everything is impermanent.
 
We can encourage this disposition by coming back to the present moment when we have gone astray. 
 
The present may be comfortable or uncomfortable. We often time travel backward or forward because of uncomfortable feelings in our body. These sensations are experiences locked in our body.
 
Ease is rooted in acceptance. Accepting things exactly as they are. Our minds become agitated when we wish things were different that they actually are. This creates dis-ease and suffering.
 
We are the only ones that can cure this affliction. The affliction of resistance. 
 
Committing to live in alignment with our core values is a powerful cusp wisdom from the metal of autumn to the transition of earth. 
 
If we are clear about our core values, centering comes much easier.
 
Living from our center is a skill learned through reflection and strengthened by correct action.
 
In which core values do you want to rest?

 
Affirmation: 
 
In this moment, I choose integrity. 
 
Today, I rest in deep trust. 
 
Right now, I am.

 
Therapy:
Walk barefoot on the earth.
