How can we design our lives and our homesteads to maximize our freedom in Time, Health, Wealth and Spirit?
This is a primary lifestyle design aim for anyone interested in living as a sovereign human being today.
Join me today as we discuss the 4 freedoms – all of which are aspects of FREEDOM – the ability to choose / say “no” to things.
- Freedom in time is by nature a state of abundance. Abundance is a state of living off the interest, or surplus, of natural systems without consuming the principal. Abundance comes about when savings are continually reinvested to productive ends. Time Freedom is Abundant Living. We have freedom in time when our basic needs are met by systems that largely function without requiring our constant involvement.
- Freedom in health is continuous, harmonic energy flow amongst the mental, spiritual, emotional and physical aspects of our nature. Fundamentally, health is about being functional – can you do the things that you are capable of and need to do (physically, mentally, spiritually, emotionally) in order to realize your highest quality of life?
- Freedom in wealth is having access to required forms of capital when needed on the path to realizing one’s purpose. When needed is key – being able to transmute one form of capital to another as appropriate for the time and place.
- Freedom in spirit is having knowledge of Self and the courage to live true to it. To be free in spirit is to use self-knowledge to shed that which is not authentic to the Self, and in so doing live ever more true to one’s purpose. Freedom in Spirit is courageous and self-validating and cannot be bound by the thoughts, projections or opinions of others.
