Joy In Simple Spirituality - Winter Musings

  Welcome cozy souls, to the season of winter.   A time to slow our roll and rhythm, to rest, repose and go within for a season of contemplation.   So pour yourself a hot chocolate or a cup of your favorite herbal tea and meet me in that space.   Several years ago I was introduced to the Danish concept of Hygge hyg·ge/ˈh(y)o͞oɡə,ˈho͝oɡə/  - a quality of coziness and comfort Hygge lifestyle encompasses a feeling of cozy contentment and well being          through enjoying the simple things in life.  Hygge lifestyle is about keeping things simple and...

And I smile strongly, as I have many times during the year, with this recognition.  With my sharing, I invite you all to reflect with me on the rememberance of the beauty of 2017.  The little moments our psyche forgets.  And with that rememberance, bring that light into 2018.  My year, as for many...
