Sweetness, Serendipity & the Roads worth Traveling.

Thank you for your patience!

New years are slow starts for me. As I mentioned in my last post to you all, the date on the calendar may say, “New beginnings!” But our sweet animal bodies are (often) still feeling the need to den, rest, and dream. Mine is most certainly.

Despite the animalistic need for slowness, life goes on! And often faster than we care for. I have been promising you, my paid subscribers, a New Year’s Ritual for some time, but I simply can’t. I thought it would come through with the full moon, but the moon came and went and my voice sat still, deep, and slow in my belly. No notes of inspiration lifted my head, nor reverberated through my vocal chords.

Though I don’t want to break my commitments to you, I also must honor the deep, wild wisdom that says, “Honor this time and place in yourself.”

This is the end of a lifetime of deeply ingrained people-pleasing. This is the end of fawning. This is the honoring of a tender heart that was not always treated gently. This is me treating myself with gentleness and care. This is the dissolution of connections that are lacking in mutuality.
