Red Roan Ranch in South Africa.

As winter dissipates we move from a period of cold that tends to make us accumulate mucous, and like dormancy in plants, takes energy and strength away from us creating a form of dormancy (a drying of juices). Spring starts the cycle of release where increasing heat and moisture thaws the accumulation of mucous and excess dosha beginning new growth and development (a renewal of juice). As the seasons change, the doshas also change and affect the human body and mind. If the diet, mode of living and routines are not changed the constitution can go out of balance and disease is certain to occur. All dis-ease is a manifestation of your emotional misalignment to what you don't want and focusing your attention on what you do not desire which causes resistance to your natural stream of well-being. You have a mighty fast moving stream of ideal wellness; see it as a river, the River of Life, and the current of Love. It is your natural state of Well-Being to go downstream, fluid, flexible, and joyful in the current of love. Everything that you experience is about the balance of thought between your desires and your expectations. When you focus your attention on what you do not desire, it becomes a resistant thought which, if not corrected becomes stronger, until eventually you will experience pain and illness.
