A New Week & Reconnection
Good evening to you!
I see some new faces here already, which is very exciting. Välkommen!
I hope your week has started positively. I sit here just finishing my tea, getting ready for sleep. It's 10:42pm, and I’m trying hard to get into bed earlier so I can wake with the light. The days are getting longer now. The sun rises 20 minutes earlier than when I arrived three weeks ago. It’s fascinating when you really think about it. I feel like it’s the climb toward the top of a mountain, and once we reach the top, it’s light all day, both outside and within.
It’s important not to underestimate the power of dark nights. How I’ve missed the darkness. I recently came across the phrase “winter baby,” and that is exactly how I feel. I’m loving this time of soul hibernation and reconnection to myself. In honor of this internal transformation, I created a short film to celebrate this moment in my life. I will post it in the next post.
It was fun playing with visual storytelling using film and music. Art is such a powerful way to heal ourselves and others.
When we are not aligned with our true selves, I feel like we are wandering ghosts seeking the light and I really wanted to try and capture this in the video. During times of transition, we can feel restless and look for answers outside ourselves. I’ve learned that the answers really do lie within if we are willing to listen and face our fears.
Today, during yoga, the instructor said, “I recognise the light in myself and others.” I think that’s beautiful and deeply true. I have heard this before in yoga classes but never fully understood its depth until now.
