As much as we love summer here at BPAR, we are truly looking forward to everything that comes with the fall season. Fall is a great reminder to be present. Think about it this way: If we are able to appreciate the present (fall) without looking at the past (summer) or racing ahead to the future (winter), we suddenly open our eyes to the beauty that is currently around us!
Nature also provides us with lessons to take away from the fall season. Here are just a few:
Let Go – Each year during the autumn season, trees let go of their leaves with grace and ease. Take some time to reflect on what no longer serves you in your life. Can you let go of any excess, or any unhelpful habits?
Open to Change – Autumn is a beautiful season because of the vibrant colors provided by the leaves, trees, and flowers. The lush greens turn bright red, orange, and yellow. How can you be flexible when changes occur?
Find Balance – The autumnal equinox is one of two days throughout the entire year when day and night are the same length. Are you feeling balanced in every aspect of your life? What can you do to find more balance?
We hope you can take away some of nature's lessons throughout the season as we ease into the cooler and shorter days, settle into new routines, and bundle up with family and friends!
