Happy Christmas & Festive Yuletide Season
We have arrived! It's Christmas time. I'm sending this out later, on Christmas evening, having enjoyed a beautiful time with my son, daughter in law and parents. I hope that you have all found a way to celebrate with loved ones, despite the barriers these times have created. It feels as though the energy of the season has been lingering in the air for many months. More so than other years. We grab onto that feeling of lightness, love and peace of heart. It's a feeling that builds for months, making us smile. You feel the difference in the...
A Fall Full of Thanksgivings
𝓦𝓪𝓻𝓶 𝔀𝓲𝓷𝓭 𝓽𝓱𝓻𝓸𝓾𝓰𝓱 𝓶𝔂 𝓱𝓪𝓲𝓻 𝓪𝓷𝓭 𝓶𝔂 𝓹𝓼𝔂𝓬𝓱𝓮... That's how this day was. Water lapping rhythmically against the shore.

As life returns to a new stage of normal, it brings with it a new stage of reflection. Here is what the time spent with the pandemic has, and continues to teach, or in many cases, remind me.

Finding Stillness Amidst the Chaos
Finding Stillness Amidst the Chaos"When we are at our lowest point, we are open to the greatest change." I, like many, have been reflecting on the teachings, the medicine, that comes with the events that are unfolding before us, to us and within us. It’s realness hasn’t peaked for many as we methodically try to navigate through this new normal. It’s like waking up from a bad dream each morning only to remember that the dream is the reality. It’s so important to honour where each of us is in this space of uncertainty. The emotions are high, impacting...
