Digestion: Light (Direct / Indirect)
Determination, the digestion Variable, is how you best take in life and food, experience first, nutrition included. Light is your determination color, and its two tone expressions are Direct Light and Indirect Light.
What it means for you
- Light is the determination color (the way you absorb). The governing condition is directness, how head-on or indirect your approach to intake wants to be, whether with food, experience, or information. Tone then sets the expression, toward the direct or the indirect.
- Direct Light takes in best with a straightforward, head-on approach, facing food and experience immediately and processing it without much delay. There is an inherent trust in the body and its instincts, and as long as the surroundings are correct, a wide range of intake can be handled cleanly.
- Indirect Light takes in best when eating is woven into another activity rather than approached head-on, the body absorbing more easily while lightly engaged. This is not mindless eating but integrated eating, and it can extend to processing experience gradually rather than all at once.
