9. Retraction: a rich emptiness
I believe a lot in strategic retreat. Often times we need to “get into our cave” to rethink, re-energize, prepare for what will come.
There is an excess of external demand, and it makes us lose contact with our essence.
Isolation is important to recover inner balance. People who are too turned to the outside lose serenity and make wrong decisions.
Some are afraid of emptiness and silence. But know that retraction can put you in touch with your “inner noise”, and you may receive very important messages from temporary isolation.
Impulses are restrained, moods are cooled. Good conversation with your pillow and deep breathing also help.
Creativity needs space to express itself, and one of the spaces where good ideas flow the most is called “emptiness”. Emptiness is filled with information. Enjoy!
