Do you crave feeling more in control of your time and energy?
Wish you knew exactly what to do every time you felt ‘stuck’?
Laws of expansion and contraction govern our universe - that includes you!
We all want more certainty in our lives. We all want more predictability when it comes to our moods. Understanding your cycles of energy will give you that, and so much more.
Cyclical energy is a superpower…when you know how to use it.
In this video, I share how to reclaim the gifts in your contracted states, get free of stuckness and revolutionise your productivity by letting your body lead.

Further thoughts (in response to Hazel Thea’s question, "how do we prepare for contraction?")
First, let’s bust the myth that the contraction is a place of weakness. Nothing could be further from the truth: your contracted states are your MEDICINE and your FUEL.
What do I mean? Let’s look at some examples:
It is through the process of contraction that a muscle gets stronger: an athlete's performance is dependent on how well they rest rather than how hard they train. Without rest, muscles cannot grow in strength or resilience - they wear and tear and injure easily. A muscle contraction is the body’s way of saying: Stop! Time for rest and recovery.
If there's no contraction of grief or heartbreak, there's no healing. Without healing, those psychic wounds will keep causing injury to your relationships for years or decades to come, just like an injured muscle.
An economic contraction provides necessary market and value corrections; a business contraction offers a chance for leaders to see opportunities that would have otherwise been invisible; a creative contraction allows you to hear deeper wisdom and insights that will generate evolution and growth.
In this way, contracted states give us the energy and the wisdom to grow, evolve, strengthen and expand bigger and further with each cycle. We only fear them because we are deluded that productivity only involves the visible "action" part.
PREPARATION
How to prepare for a contraction:
- Adjust your expectations: this season will require different measures of success.
- Don’t self-attack: many people waste the medicine and fuel of their contracted states by fighting it all the way, exhausting themselves.
- Go gentle on yourself: this is a period of refuelling, not rushing.
- Get support from your friends, colleagues and community (I dream of a world in which those in expanded states carry the ones who are contracted, and then switch)
