Importance of spiritual 'hibernation'

Sometimes you just really need to slow down. Maybe it's winter, and the weather's not so good. Maybe it's the end of the year or a busy period where you've processed loads; maybe you'd come through some really difficult times. You have to get to know your soul - there's a time to step on the gas pedal, and a time to 'hibernate'. Both are equally essential, if you're not to build stress and burn out. And it doesn't matter if it's only for a few hours or half a day. Don't be afraid to take your foot off the evolutionary accelerator sometimes. Nurture yourself. Slow down. Take it easy. Hibernate a while, with the sense you could rest deeply into eternity. It'll do you the world of good.

Namaste
