This A- Z animal podcast series brings us to one of the most unusual and most misunderstood creatures that we have studied so far. The sloth…. The sloth was originally named after one of the seven deadly sins, and has been labeled as the world's laziest animal for decades. More recently, though, we have learned that they are far from being simple, lazy creatures that sleep all day, but rather they are complex, mysterious animals with an interesting history. Overall sloths symbolize relaxation, conservation, mindfulness, groundedness, and patience. It gathers wisdom and values hanging upside down in the trees, rotating its head as far as an owl does. With grace and patience, the sloth blends into nature, and is content to move at their own pace, enjoying the present moment. All tree sloths that we see today evolved from the extinct great ground slough of 64 million years ago. This ancient sloth was some of the only mammals that had digestive systems large enough to process avocado seeds… They feast on the fruit and disperse the seeds. So if it wasn't for them, there might not be any avocados at all.
So call on sloth medicine. Call it into your life. For groundedness, harmony, patience, mindfulness, relaxation, and wisdom. Call in the sloth! “Call IT in With Dar!”
