The Quiet Season

[Julia Gustavsson]

Hi Yoli! Such a beautiful reminder of the importance of rest. "Winter reminds me that stillness isn’t stagnation—it’s the fertile ground from which growth begins", yes! Coming back to center and getting into the mindset we want to be in for the upcoming year, is very beneficial. Thank you for sharing your insights 💚🙏

It never gets this cold in the Tropics, so I'm not very familiar with winter, but I appreciate a season that reminds of the beauty and necessity of slowing down. We come from and belong to nature, so we learn from and mimic its patterns. In this dance between the earth and the sun, we learn the role of seclusion. A change of rhythm and pace, as is necessary to mark the beauty of time to which we all belong.

In Miami as well, it never gets too cold. It is a beautiful dance between earth and sun. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Patrick. 🙏🏽

Thanks for such a wise and comforting post, Yolanda.

I also read your link to the ZENTAO eight guiding principles, and am going to review it again. They look to me like a recipe for a life well lived.

Wishing you a joyous festive season.🪷
