Have you taken a moment yet this month?

December arrived and at last it seemed winter has truly arrived.

This can be such a very busy and stressful time for many people. The pressure of choosing the right gift and and of course more expense!

Sometimes we can lose the joy and magic that this season brings. The sparkle and happiness that we all want to experience. While we wish to see our friends and loved ones having a wonderful time we must also make sure we are feeling special also.
Have you remembered to give yourself that special gift of a moment to yourself.

I am not talking about a snatched cup of coffee or a shuffle around the shop on your own ! Real time for you, being still and listening, feeling, seeing really just being.

Yesterday it was cold outside however in my seating spot down in the garden the sun was warm and everything sparkled around. I sat with my coffee and just delighted in the warmth.

The grass looked pretty with frost glistening on it and a little robin was in a tree by the fence.

It was a real moment of calm for me and I felt so refreshed.

Try each day to find that special time for yourself. You could make a space in your home that is reserved for yourself .

Keep some favourite items here. Crystals if you use them , a favourite book , a comfy throw and cushion. Find a time when you can be alone and just enjoy.
If you prefer outdoors find a spot that you love and find your joy in the sights and sounds.

Feel the earth beneath your feet and the security and connection that it brings.
Again have things close by that you love maybe a favourite plant . Preferably evergreen so it may be enjoyed in winter also. A birdbath and feeder so you can watch the birds .

I wish you a wonderful Christmas. Enjoy a peaceful time filled with joy .

Brightest Blessings .
