Season of Darkness and Introspection

Now in this season of darkness, reminds us that we really are a part of nature. We feel like staying in, sleeping more and eating a little extra. Our bodies’ natural tendency is to gain an extra layer of fat (insulation of course 
) to keep us warm in these cozy winter months. Ahhhh, a great season for a little hibernation time…
For years, I have fought this feeling of slowing down (especially with my natural tendency towards non-stop action, ha ha), however for the first time this year I realize that the fighting of this natural flow of nature and thus of our own inner rhythms is how we involuntarily release our precious energy.
During these cold winter months it is the time to ‘turn inwards’ and take reflection of ourselves and of our lives. These times of darkness allow for a time of discovery of the treasures that lie within us, just waiting to be discovered. It is a season abundant with introspection and insight. What do we want? What do we need? Does what we want serve our highest good and the highest good of others? Do these things bring us happiness, bliss and Joy?

I too agree with what you are saying. Winter for me is very difficult. I want to be out in the sun, feeling it on my whole body and not just my face!! As the days get longer I feel in my bones that spring is on it’s way. Just get through the winter I think every day. How to do that takes lots of focus and connecting to your soulful energy every day and living as positively and truthfully as you can and not allowing the negativity to come forth…it’s an energetic battle but well worth the effort.
I bless you Gen and send you Love, Light and Laughter.
