Summary: This podcast, which is part 2 in a series, describes how taking fallow periods, including shorter version, can help us slow down and make choices based on peace.
Key points:
A fallow period helps us learn to identify when we’re feeling resistance to specific relationships, things or concepts, and then to make different choices.
Taking smaller fallow periods helps us to listen and slow down more instead of rushing through things that we don’t align with.
As a result, taking a fallow period in later life may result in letting go of things that feel like “work” (i.e., where we feel resistance).
Jill believes taking fallow periods has ultimately put her in touch with the quiet place inside herself. At this point, she believes that she’s making selections based on peace.
