Food prep is paramount.
On the evening before travel, I prepare & freeze stock from perishables that will not outlast my journey. Upon return I easily create soup from my home frozen meals. Here I’ve combined Southwest pumpkin chicken stock with 2 individual meals: blanched whole carrots & green beans plus field peas & basmati rice. Broth is one of the superfoods of winter. my Element Wisdom Winter/water deck reminds you how to harmonize with each season to optimize your health. Plan ahead for wellness.

The glamp is located across a little intermittent creek lined with ferns. With the rains, you can hear the water falling under the screen porch. The property is a hidden gem in town, an oasis, a tiny retreat. It needs a loving renter with the willingness to garden and yard keep its nearby habitat. We have foxes, deer, bunnies and loads of songbirds. DM me for more information. I’m looking for a kind soul to stay at least through Spring.

Conceive. Concentrate Conserve.

When I entered a conservation biology masters program after the Alice in Wonderland of 2020, I never conceived that I would end the coursework from a gorgeous, quiet beach watching pelicans and cormorants and frigits fish. Yes, I bought my freedom from the slavery of the graduate assistant position. But I’m okay with the outcome. Conceive your high ideal (assisted by Spirit). Concentrate your energies to do your best every day. Conserve your energy with wise expenditures, loosen the need to control, churn emotionally or mentally stress.

The ocean is the best bath tub! I am so fortunate to walk the waters, waist deep, in January in the Gulf of Mexico, Yucatan this year. When away from the ocean, I often create an ocean in my bathtub at home: an extra generous portion of plain Epsom salts. Sometimes I’ll tie a bag cotton bag of seaweeds and let them swim in the hot, salty waters for a bit. I use the bottom of the tub to stretch myself in the salty goodness.

Winter is ruled by the element of water. The taste of the element is salty. The color is blue black like the depths of the ocean. The salty ocean water is our source connect. My most rewarding discipline is setting aside time to be still. Meditation is my medicine. Winter, the season of quiescence, is a powerful time to return to the practices of being still to know. This allows me to relax into source, God, the Great Spirit, the universe - whatever name you speak to divine me. As we have turned the page of our solar calendar, we tend to intention our partitioning of time with renewed hopes of optimizing ourselves. Let us find out sacred connect and allow. The I Ching, card decks, pendulums, runes, etc are@out attempts to connect to divine, to receive instruction or understanding of spice. May we all divine the highest nature.

Wintertime is dream time! What are your dreams for 2024 and beyond? For a decade, I’ve been living and dreaming of optimizing my health while maintaining my rootedness in Alabama for relationship with my family of origin and local community. The temperate nature of the Tropic of Cancer and the ocean currents pull me warmer.

May you all have a blessed return of the light on this darkest night of the year.
