If you had a box to fill and carry into 2025 what would you put in it?
All your favourite things right? You’d take out things you didn’t use anymore, to make more space, and lighten the load.
You might squash as much into the box as you could, or maybe just pack the essentials, and leave some room.
What would your essentials be? Or what are they now - maybe you could stop and rewrite.
January -a time for rest and hibernation, savouring the slowness of winter…quiet potential and regeneration as nature sleeps.
The loudness of Christmas is often a distraction from dark and gloomy weather. Or turned upside down maybe it denies us the crucial joy of the here and now. Always bounding forward waiting on colour and sun. But theres plenty of winter beauty to be found, the first tiny snowdrops peeping through sodden golden bracken along a hedgerow.
Through Stemscription and Calluna (my new flower club) I hope to bring you nature and the seasons, as your monthly ritual, to rewild and unwind. And to stop and see the world around you again. 🍃
