Episode 5 of the Hermetic Principles Series dives into The Principle of Rhythm:
“Everything flows, in and out. Nothing stays still.”
We explore how this ancient principle shows up in psychology, philosophy, and NLP, from circadian rhythms and mood cycles to Taoist wisdom and cognitive reframing. I’ll also challenge the cliché of “just go with the flow” — because too often, that means bending to someone else’s flow, not your own.
You’ll learn:
Why forcing constant “up” is exhausting (and what real balance looks like)
How to honour your own seasons without guilt
Tools to reframe emotional slumps as part of life’s natural swing
How to negotiate between your flow and the flows of others without losing yourself
🌊 Don’t just go with the flow. Go with your flow. That’s real emotional mastery.
🎧 Stick around for the end — there’s a free Personal Rhythm Tracker to help you map and master your own cycles.
