I wear red. On really dreary days I wear bright yellow. Honor the process and take more time for extra rest. Animals hibernate and we need to respond to the need to slow down during the cold months. We decorated with beach balls and beach paraphernalia and a large, inflatable shark.
Crocuses are in bloom.
E ach year at this time I volunteer to do a cooking project at my son's school. It always lifts my spirits to be around the kids and it's fun getting to try out different recipes. I see the winter as a time for introspection, a time to turn more inward and slow down. We're part of the animal kingdom and we need to remember that animals hibernate and seeds lie dormant during this time of year. We need to honor that rather than fight it.
