If January for you feels heavy, tired, sad, anger there may be a reason for that;
For much of human history, the new year didn’t begin in the depths of winter. It began in spring — when the light returned, the soil warmed, fertility awakened, and life quietly emerged again. Renewal was never meant to happen in the dark.
And yet, January arrives with so much pressure. New plans, new goals, new rules. We’re encouraged to get going, get active, overhaul our lives and become a “better version” of ourselves — right in the coldest, darkest part of the year.
If that works for you, that’s amazing. But if it doesn’t… you’re not failing. (It definitely doesn’t work for me either 😅)
Winter has always been a season of stillness. Of conserving energy. Of rest and repair beneath the surface. The earth isn’t idle — it’s preparing.
So if you’re feeling tired, inward, or resistant to pushing forward right now, nothing is wrong with you. You’re simply in rhythm with the season.
Honour winter.
Rest without guilt.
Move gently.
Nourish what is tender.
Your rebirth arrives with the spring 😃🌱
