Winter sets in and you start to feel a nagging anxiety about where you are, or where you’re not!
The negatives start to set in, and all the wonderful intentions you’re yet to fulfil start to tap you on the shoulder, and all you really want to do is escape to happy land under a cosy doona.
Winter is a time of going within, like an animal goes into hibernation. It is the season of contemplation, regeneration and rest. Our minds and bodies react to the change in weather by slowing down, and requiring more food and sleep.
In a lot of ritual practices, winter is the time for allowing the seeds (intentions) you have planted be nurtured by the earth. At times, it feels like everything has come to a grinding halt, we start to really question whether we are on the right track at all because we are not seeing any results, this can give us a feeling of the “Winter Heavies”.
A wonderful way to align with your positive outlook again is to set yourself a Winter Ritual:
1. Imagine your own seed of intention, what dreams and desires you have planted?
2. Focus on them being taken care of by all those that are working with you in Spirit.
3. Then bring your attention back to the positive aspects of your life in this moment.
Use these months of Winter for regenerating within through meditation and stillness. Nature has divine wisdom, follow her lead.
Blessings.
