COMBINATION BODY TYPES
In the next several sections I will review the traits of the remaining seven body types, which are combinations of qualities rather than the “pure” types I have discussed so far. One important point to remember is that when the qualities of each type are divided up, components such as mind, intellect, ego, emotions, behavior, likes, dislikes, talents, and strengths can land in either camp.
For example, a Winter-Spring type can have a mind that is predominantly Winter-like (quick, lively, restless, poor memory, etc.) and a body that is predominantly Spring-like (structurally stronger, heavier, slower). Or, a Winter-Spring type can have a Spring-like mind (slow to learn, slow to forget, more relaxed and composed) along with a Winter body (lean, light, mobile). Or, yet again, some Winter and some Spring qualities will go to the mind department, and others to the body.
Whichever way the chips fall, he or she is still a Winter-Spring type. This will create unique personalities within the type, each with the general theme of Winter-Spring. In fact, the combinations are virtually infinite, leaving no two persons exactly alike.
BODY-TYPE FOCUS
ONCE YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS AND TENDENCIES OF THE TYPES, IT IS NOT TOO DIFFICULT TO FINE-TUNE YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF YOURSELF (AND OTHERS). A CLOSER INSPECTION OF THE PHYSICAL, MENTAL, BEHAVIORAL, AND ATHLETIC PROFILES, BASED ON THE SUBTOTALS OF THE BODY-TYPE QUESTIONNAIRE, WILL SHED LIGHT ON THE EXACT NATURE OF EACH INDIVIDUAL’S TYPE. WITH SOME BASIC PRINCIPLES UNDER YOUR BELT, THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A SPRING-SUMMER AND WINTER BODY OR MIND IS QUITE APPARENT EVEN TO A RELATIVELY UNTRAINED OBSERVER.
