What effects do the changing seasons have on us?
In our society, our usual working practices tend not to honour the change in seasons. We continue to work the same hours with the same objectives placing the same demands on us physically emotionally and mentally. If anything, those demands tend to increase at this time of year. However we are inextricably inter linked with the changing seasons of mother nature and right now, as Autumn draws to an end, there is a natural pull to slow down honouring the requirement for internal ‘hibernation’.
What effects do these contradictory influences have? How best can we manage the impact on our state of well being? This Openhand Autumn Newsletter raises some of the key issues...
