Delightful as always to hear you read your post. I often wonder if and when I will ever hit my stride my core self and balance all the things out. Maybe one day I will.... I sure hope so. Reading and hearing your medicine post help me ground and calm if even for a second. It's like heaven and a warm cup of tea.
WOWZA! First snow photo is to die for--so lovely, I was blown away. Yup you have done well fer yourself, girl, when you moved to such an idyl of a place to rest/heal/learn/restore.
this is the first anni. of reading your substack as well, I recall that article on Christmas being a more than alarming event in the life of a Vata. I was hooked so happy one year of friendship. hip hip hurray!
as well, loved the rest of post-----since retirement from the public and doing my own thing, my thing turns out to be isolating, going into the woods, however metaphorically you want to explain...At the first sign of frivolous behavior, the "shop for stuff U do not need mindset, I go inwards and no it doesn't mean an austere holiday, just one where the winter season is celebrated as it was intended to--cold weather, nocturnal isolation and silence to think one's thoughts, preferably with nature being one's only companion? kind of hoping heaven might be like that; ya know what I mean?....happy happy be happy..............
