Gentler times are on the way. Quietly, the hours have returned of self nurturing, and more rest. The time has come to go inward, to restore after a busy summer, to create, to instill harmony and peace for the upcoming cycle that will repeat again and again. The time has come to be more mindful, to meditate and to be still.
It's time for soups, and comfort foods. For smells that linger in the air from baked goods and tea's that warm us during a cold chilly day.
It's time to cozy up just a little closer and snuggle with a good book. It's time to engage in whatever nurtures our soul. Give yourself the gift of slowing down and put you first.
It's time for dreams being envisioned and born, for plans being forged, deciding what seeds we want to plant and cultivate for next years harvest.
It's time for early nights and earlier days, observing a sunrise to add a few more hours to our day while watching the world come alive in the still of the wee hours.
It's time to reflect on the year and the seasons passed. Just like the land becomes dormant, so are we. We look back on what we have achieved, how far we have come and what has unfolded. What gifts has time bestowed us with?
It's a time to be gentle with ourselves, to be patient and understanding, a time to forgive all the things that didn't turn out the way we hoped they'd do. It's time to forgive yourself and trust that you have done your best.
It's time to build up new strengths, to acknowledge our shortcomings, and the lessons that they brought.
It's time for friends and family. To be more present and enjoy each others company.
It's time to be grateful and give thanks. To not focus so much on what could have been or be, but to show our true appreciation for all that is and all we have already.
Namaste 🙏🏼💙
