The Yin and the Yang of Life

The concept of Yin and Yang as balancing energies or life forces comes from Daoism, a Fourth Center BCE Chinese belief system extolling a life of harmony with nature, simplicity and achieving perfection through response to the essence of life’s spontaneity.  

We can learn much from this ancient Asian belief system about the inconstancy of life and our response to that disruption.  Imagine if there was no disruption in our lives, that every day followed the same pattern and was utterly predictable.  While that may sound safe, I think in time you would tire of that sameness and be utterly bored.  Life coaching helps you identify what is constant in your life, and what is universally true for all of us.  Once you find that common ground, when life hands you lemons, you won’t just make lemonade, you’ll take that lemonade with you as you ride your inner river of resilience back upstream to calmer waters.  Sound like fun?  Then I’ll be the Yin to your Yang as we explore this in a coaching session!  The first one’s on me (for a limited time!)  molly@lifeclarity.net
