December 2021 - Slowing Down

December 2021 - Slowing Down

This time of year we may find ourselves feeling more naturally inclined to slow down. Fewer hours of daylight & colder temperatures invite us to seek the comforts of hearth & home. Paradoxically, the winter holidays can make us feel that we can't slow down because there is too much to do.

These recent years have taught us what is most important in life -- that it is the simple things that are most fulfilling.

In the spirit of embracing simplicity, my invitation to you this month is to slow down, savor the pleasures of the season, & allow yourself moments of solitude & stillness. Take advantage of any opportunity to truly rest, so when the holidays are behind us, you feel rejuvenated and ready for the new year ahead.
