Everything moves in cycles.
The land teaches us this.
The body remembers this.
The seasons show us, again and again, that nothing exists on its own.
Winter.
Spring.
Summer.
Fall.
Each one carries its own teachings.
Each one holds its own responsibilities.
Each one is necessary.
In many Indigenous teachings, these seasons are not just times of year.
They are ways of understanding life.
They are directions.
They are colours.
They are medicines.
They are relationships.
North. East. South. West.
White. Yellow. Red. Black.
Cedar. To***co. Sweetgrass. Sage.
Not separate.
Not symbolic.
Connected.
A circle.
In The Felt Sense and the Four Seasons of Change, this is the foundation.
We do not move in straight lines.
We move in relationship.
Winter teaches us to begin in safety.
Spring invites awareness and awakening.
Summer asks us to live the work in connection.
Fall calls us to gather, reflect, and carry it forward.
This is not theory.
It is a way of being.
A way of understanding care that honours the body, the spirit, the land, and the relationships that hold us together.
And like all cycles—it begins somewhere.
This week, we begin with Winter.
Not as a starting point to rush through.
But as a place to arrive.
To listen.
To slow down.
To create the conditions that allow everything else to grow.
Because when we understand the circle, we understand that nothing is isolated.
Not healing.
Not trauma.
Not care.
Everything is connected.
And when we begin to move differently within that understanding,
our communities begin to change.
