Slowing Down With Autumn
The changing of the seasons, Autumn is here and she is here to teach us how to reconnect back with ourselves and with nature. So many of us get caught up in the routine of school, the holiday traditions and just the hustle and bustle of life that we forget to actually be present with our families, our children and our friends. Too many moments are lost by getting caught up in all the details of life. So we must slow down alongside nature and learn to be present with ourselves and our loved ones. To do so, we must first start within.
A good start is to reflect back on this last season with a journal or paintbrush in hand. Listen to the call of this season, revel in the beauty and take time to recharge. Plan an adventure with your family. With the warm days and cool nights it is a great time to spend it outdoors and slow down among the trees together. We often forget that nature is a sweet medicine to our spirits. By reconnecting with ourselves, it brings balance to our core and in doing so - bringing balance to our family.
