Rest, reflection, and renewal with simple, restorative habits

The new year offers us a chance to reflect & realign, to start fresh, to shift our perspective or habits, to refocus on callings or purpose. 

I find that to harness this potential we must both honor the external seasons (winter in the western hemisphere) that are inviting us to slow down, drawn inward, and make space for rest. Alongside the internal seasons you experience individually. 

Internally you may have a combination of the following in different facets of your life:
Spring - new ideas, intentions, rebirth
Summer - action, being seen
Fall - receiving, releasing
Winter - tending, listening, death

This winter season offers a chance to tend, listen, and let die the parts that are no longer serving. 
Within the art of listening you can gain clarity, peace, maybe even energy or direction. 
If you find yourself comparing, or feeling lack, can you remember with gentleness the art of tending, and listening as a "compass" back home?

A few simple winter focuses that are allowing me to open up to new capacity this year:
💜 Sleep
💜 Movement
💜 Nourishment
💜 Breath & Meditation

I plan to share a small snippet through the lens of vitality & bioenergetics about each of these in the coming weeks, to jump spark your own capacity!
