I’ve gotten several audience questions about seasonal rituals, so in this episode of Belonging, I thought I would address seasonal rituals for the time that I’m currently in: rituals around winter.
First, I invite you to notice what winter looks and feels like where you live (not everywhere looks like a Bavarian ski village in December). Then, I invite you to notice what winter is energetically in your body. Reframing winter as the dream time. I also share my rituals of being dreamy and doing less, being with fire or flame, working with pine essence, winter kitchen magic, sauna or bathing magic, tracking the sunlight, and easeful intention setting.
“As I enter into the winter season, my first step is reminding myself that it is the season of rest and dream time.”
