Welcome December! It’s still fall per calendar and nature. Harvests are still coming in and there also seems to be some organization chaos. Where does this go? The putting away of spring and summer items and the pulling out of fall and winter things for many of us. There are also blessings and good things coming in big waves. This may be physical, financial, spiritual, and material forms. In the midst of the harvests lie some disappoints, loss, hurt in variable sized feelings. Maybe it’s a huge blow and maybe it’s small but subtle. I literally inhaled deeply and exhaled slowly after typing the previous sentence.

And that’s kind of what it will be about. Inhales and exhales. What needs to be healed in your life right now? This is about soul care and soul maintenance and it begins to now with intentionality. Especially, if you are going to sustain yourself for what is to come in 2025. You will be urge to NOW begin to anchor your soul deeply into a belief system that supports light, love, water and fire. Water and fire? Yes. We will talk more about that this week. Just note it’s a quiet fire. A strategic fire and not wild or out of control.

It’s time to get back to or deepen your meditation and prayer practices. If you have been missing spiritual meetings, Bible study, religious services you may want to return. Also, get some solitude away from the noise and distractions, the cares of this world. Create a space for yourself. Demand it. No excuse. These practices will help you to control your temperament and responses. It will help you to read the room and read a person because you are going to need all of the self control you can muster in 2025.

Take care of your body. Balance with healthy foods and stay hydrated. Look up the fruits and veggies of winter.

And before winter, the dreaded winter for many fully hits, read this https://nikkisconfettilife.com/2024/01/18/what-did-winter-ever-do-to-you/

I’ve been feeling nostalgic lately and that is no surprise. If not nostalgic, reflective. It’s the time of year we start looking backwards. But if you find yourself looking back and feeling like you didn’t accomplish anything or much remember this, your WORTH AND VALUE has not changed and you are not necessarily on the other’s timeline or even your own for that matter. First, note the small things because small things are the undercurrent of big things. Second, stop looking at all that you didn’t do and start writing down all that you have to be grateful for thus far. It will put you in a better head and heart space.
