The Basics of Living Well: Energy Cultivation

Energy Cultivation is essential to Living Well regardless of the path you are on. Whether you are engaged in religion, spirituality, shamanism or just living life you are still an energy being living in an energy world. It all looks physical and solid, but in reality it’s all energy and it’s all connected. Join host and shaman, Christina Pratt, for Part Two of The Basics of Living Well. A human is an “energy bucket”. To have the energy to live authentically we need to live in ways that fill the bucket. Chi gong, time in nature, and naps can fill the bucket, while a day that requires you ignore your body, work more than anything else, and drink caffeine to complete it usually empties the bucket. If balancing your day between actions of expression and cultivation weren’t challenging enough, remember that the bucket is also made of energy. Energy cultivation requires that we look to the quality of the bucket itself, repairing all leaks and cracks while we keep the bucket full.
