I send you my wishes for a joyful holiday season.
In the Northern Hemisphere, just after the Winter Solstice, it seems a perfect time to remind ourselves that after the darkest day of the year, the light has begun its slow and steady return.
This past weekend outside the retreat house where we will gather Jan. 24 and 25. Will you join us?While the dark time of year (and cold, too, in many climates) can be especially hard on the psyche, it brings its gifts–the seeds of what we will birth in spring or summer or harvest in fall. Winter invites us to slow down (well, maybe, holiday shopping and parties aside) and allow ourselves time to go within:
- What’s there inside you?
- What needs healing?
- What needs voice?
- What does your soul wants you to know?
In the midst of all the busyness, I invite you to light a candle. Close your eyes. Go within to your inner light and see what’s calling to you in this moment.
Maybe have a journal and pen handy to capture these soul promptings as soon as you open your eyes.
If you join me and Robin Kall Jan. 24 and 25 for our Creative Abundance Writing Retreat, this could be you, at our nurturing location, nestled by the sea on three sides in a light-filled room with exquisite ocean views.Writing, and especially journaling, is connecting, healing, nourishing and enlightening. I hope you give yourself time for this important food for body, mind and spirit this season!
And enjoy the social time as well—family, friends, celebration!
With love and wishes for a very happy, healthy and creatively fulfilling 2026,
Lisa
