The Winter Solstice has passed, and the mythic
stories have been retold; the Sun is born again -
darkness giving way to light - as a new cycle of
opportunity - a new year begins.
And now, fortified with the bounty of the Harvest,
and the gifts given and received during the Winter
Festivals, it is now time to sink deeper within
ourselves, as the cold forces us inward, to take
stock, conserve, mend, and imagine. And how to do
that?
In this Water season, look at how
others are conserving their energy: Bear hibernates,
Maple Tree drops its leaves and sinks into its roots,
and even mighty River bows to the demands of
Winter as its powerful flow ices over. So rather than
continue to plow ahead at breakneck speeds dictated
by the other 'powers - that - be,' become aware of
the changes taking place around and within you, and
remember that "for everything there is a season ..."
Wishing you a happy and healthy New Year!
Kitty & Michael

A new year, and a new opportunity to reorient: to
reflect on where you've been, to consider where
you're going, and to understand where you are now.
And to support that process, here are some things to
be aware of as you continue along your way.
1. Know Thyself
Pay attention to what your body is letting you know
about it's health. When you acknowledge that your
body is intelligent, like your mind is intelligent, you
open a channel into your consciousness that provides
the information you need to make the healthy
adjustments you need to avoid getting sick or hurt.
Also, take some time each day to remember what
makes you feel content, and take another step that
direction.
2. Don't Supersize It.
Eat a balanced diet, in moderately sized portions.
Keep in mind that it's healthier to eat smaller portions
throughout the day, rather than eat large meals two
or three times a day. Folk wisdom: "After lunch, rest
a while; after dinner, walk a mile."
