As we gear up for the Yule and Christmas seasons, I invite you to make a conscious effort to find time to nurture yourself! You DESERVE the gift of self-care. Pamper yourself with a hot cup of tea and a great (or just-for-fun) book, a luxurious bath, or just time to BREATHE!!! Centering and grounding yourself will make the hustle and bustle of shopping, cooking, decorating, etc. more fun and relaxed!
Consider shopping locally-owned stores, or not shopping at all! This year, my family and I adopted several of the Ocracoke Island ponies as our gift to each other. We love these unique horses, and our gift feeds them and helps with their medical expenses throughout the year.
More to come in the following days about the gift of Light as we head into the season of darkness!
Blessed be,
Deb
What makes it a season of darkness?
Hi Trina. It’s the season of darkness in the northern hemisphere because the sun is further away from earth. December 21 is the longest night of the year. This is why many world beliefs celebrate light during this time.
