The Seasons of Wellbeing

Just as our planet orbiting around the sun creates the four earth seasons, there are also cyclical rhythms in our life through which we interact and experience the world. These are the four seasons of Discover, Transform, Awaken and Integrate. Each season represents the way we receive and influence our environment and how this environment influences us. Each has its distinctive rhythm, intelligence, emotions, energy and gifts.

​

Discover, Transform, and Awaken represent stages of life and circumstances in life we cycle through. While in the season of Integrate we develop a higher level of understanding and ability to organise the influences in our life. We can consciously choose the strategies of each season or the combination of seasons that serve us best in that moment. In Integrate we are able to use the gifts from one season to guide the experience of another.

Intelligences

The Six Energetic Intelligences

Our self organising inborn wisdom is comprised of six Energetic Intelligences that control, regulate and manifest different aspects of our body, mind, spirit and lives. These intelligences are resources we have at our disposal. They have developed through our evolutionary journey and each has its characteristic challenges and gifts. Some of us are innately more gifted in some intelligences than others. The concept is to understand what intelligences we have, which ones we can use and when we use them. First, we need to use the intelligence that is most gifted and energised to lead the way for other intelligences to follow. If we focus or obsess with the intelligence that is less gifted or least energised we find ourselves in a situation of "I can't do this" or "I am stuck" and our behaviours and structure become energetically drained and physically challenged. In short, we have to effort more to reach the level we need to reach or that we desire to reach. By focusing first on what we are more confident in and what is most effortless, we are able to jump-start that which might be more challenged.

 

Bioenergetic Intelligence

Bioenergy moves through all organisms as life-force. Its job is to keep us safe by putting out enough energy to keep our metabolism functioning at a baseline level. It keeps the heart and lungs functioning and helps to heal the connective tissues such as membranes, fascia, skin and bones when we are injured. The purpose of Bioenegetic Intelligence is to keep us alive by regulating our biochemistry.

 

Emotional Intelligence.

Emotional Intelligence has evolved to keep us safe by allowing us to respond to our environment. It rapidly changes our life force so we act differently. Emotion is energy in motion and the purpose of Emotional Intelligence is to initiate rapid change. People who find it hard to make decisions and changes in their life often do not have enough emotional expression. This is because they have disconnected from the very emotion that presents at that moment to make a shift.

Emotions manifest rapidly without conscious control. They are short-lived and are designed for a fast response.

 

Lower Mental Intelligence

While emotions are short-lived, the Lower Mental Intelligence has developed the ability to freeze the emotional experience and replay it. It uses words and thoughts as the mind can make considerations from different angles about whether something else is required for protection or to effectuate change. It plays back the story and asks us "what do we do next"?

 

Upper Mental Intelligence

There is another higher intelligence of the mind that questions whether we can do better and whether there is more out there available to us. It creates a mind map of our life and optimises our choices. This intelligence is also there to protect us, but in this case it does so by advancing us rather than holding us back. It is moving us TOWARDS something rather than away from it. It is the gateway to transformation.

 

Soul Intelligence

The intelligence of the Soul allows us to feel the energy behind the physical form. We no longer have to do but allow ourselves to be. We feel empathy, love, joy and compassion and we know we have gifts and understand how we can bring these into the world.

​

Universal Spirit Intelligence

This is the energy of oneness that we are all participating in. Here we experience serendipity and the magic of meeting the right people at the right time. Being in the right place at the right time. Being able to share our gifts with others and celebrate the diversity within the community. We come to understand that 'all is perfect just as it is'. That when we trust in life's process we allow the universe to work in our favour.

 

When these Six Energetic Intelligences are supplied with enough available energy, a higher order of health, wellness and resourcefulness both within us and around us spontaneously occurs.
