Stop, Reflect, Own, See

As we enter the darkest time of the year we are being asked to go inwards, to stop what we are doing, and melt into being. This time of year is the perfect for deep reflection, especially as we are coming closer to the end of 2017. It's a chance for us to take inventory to see how far we've come compared to last year, and to take note on what we've accomplished, internally and externally. The darkness is a time to be in the presence of our own darkness, our own unknown, and learn how to navigate.

Slowing Down

Slowness is how we experience. If want a full experience of life, we must slow down. If we are afraid of experiencing we fear slowing down. When we slow down we see, we feel . All of it. It's apart of being a human, to feel.

Personal Cycles

We all go in and out of dark and light. It is a cycle. A teacher of mine reminded me that we wax and wane just like the moon. Hearing this taught me that although darkness will settle in, trust that it wont' last forever, and does serve a purpose. We learn in the darkness, in order to shine our brightest light.
