Have you noticed how winter invites us to be slow and still?

If we take up the invitation, our systems feel nourished, we get replenished and soak up the richness that comes when we soften our pace. Instead of chasing the pace of ‘doing’, we remember how to restore and receive. This is the gift of winter.

Let’s look at another energy now, the one of society. It’s busy, there is a rampant amount of information coming every moment. Keep doing the things, you don’t have time to rest. I see it as a way of emotionally hijacking the very intelligence that knows it needs to rest.

This way of living has a very addictive undertone of fear that would like to convince you that there is no time to stop, there’s an urgency needing your immediate attention, and it all needs to be actioned now.

Now compare the difference between the energy of winter and of current society. Which feels more replenishing?

The problem with the current way of living life is that your nervous system gets hooked on adrenaline boosts. It knows no difference because that is its ‘food’. It’s an addictive habit.

This podcast is a gift to that part of you that knows it wants to enjoy the gifts of winter and it gives you some teachings and ways to nourish yourself.

Winter is a great time to Dream, to go within, to take yourself on a journey to meet feelings you’ve perhaps popped to one side. Often when we are able to get still, we may meet those parts that we successfully buried, which is maybe why we are so addicted to doing and avoiding.

In this podcast episode, you’ll hear some wisdom and insights into being in the wintertime. If you take some of these and implement them, I’m pretty confident your nervous system will thank you for it. Especially if you’re feeling weary right now and desire to be reminded how to receive deep nourishment, both in your bones and in the way you live.
