Make Winter Solstice the quiet anchor day of the season โ„๏ธ
Instead of another โ€˜doingโ€™ day, let it be about being.
The still point of winter. The shortest day. The longest night.
A moment where nothing is asked of you and nothing needs to be achieved.
Solstice invites us to pause right in the middle of everything, to stop pushing, fixing, and striving, and simply allow ourselves to rest. To breathe. To notice. To let the body and mind catch up.
No goals. No expectations. No productivity.
Just a gentle acknowledgement that this is a turning point, and that rest is part of the rhythm, not a failure of it.
If you do one thing today, let it be nothing at all.
Sit with candlelight. Take a slow breath. Be held by the quiet ๐Ÿ˜Œ
From here, the light returns - slowly, steadily, in its own time.

Iโ€™m expecting ridiculous amounts of tinsel, headgear, bells, flashing lights โ€ฆโ€ฆ

And we will, as we have all week, be finishing with a few moments of calm pause ๐Ÿ˜Œ

It was a truly lovely final event of the year ๐Ÿ˜Œ
Tonightโ€™s Christmas Pause opened with mindful meditation, a gentle invitation to slow down, arrive fully, and set the weight of the season to one side. As the breath softened, the room grew quieter, and the body began to listen.
Himalayan and crystal bowls, gongs, and chimes followed, their layered tones washing through the space, creating moments of stillness, release, and deep rest. Sound lingered, faded, and returned again, easing busy minds and tired bodies without effort or expectation.
A calm, nourishing way to close the year. A shared pause before Christmas, held in sound, silence, and gentle presence.

Iโ€™m deeply grateful to everyone who has joined me this year for our sound baths. Thank you for showing up, slowing down, and allowing yourselves the space to rest and be held by sound. Sharing these quiet moments together has been a real privilege ๐Ÿ™

The studio is all ready for this evenings Christmas Pause ๐ŸŽ„
2 hours to step away from all the busyness, to take a deep breath in, and an even bigger breath out.
Itโ€™s going to be glorious ๐Ÿฅฑ

Wrapping up warm and getting out into nature is one of the simplest ways to support both body and mind, especially at this time of year.
A brisk walk in fresh air gets the blood moving, gently challenges balance, and helps keep joints mobile. Natural light supports sleep patterns and mood, while steady movement boosts circulation and warms the body from the inside out.
Nature also asks very little of us. No screens, no to-do lists, just space to breathe, notice, and reset. Even a short time outdoors can lower stress levels, calm the nervous system, and leave us feeling clearer and more grounded.
So layer up, step outside, and let the season do some of the work for you. A few minutes in nature often gives far more back than we expect ๐ŸŒณ
