Are you feeling it too? The genuine urge to hunker down, a growing need for rest, a deep desire to seek comfort?
As the days become shorter and the cold descends, hibernation mode sets in. While seasonal change is a normal part of the natural world, many of us feel we should have the same levels of energy all year round.
The result is that our incessant drive to grow and out-perform can often leave us feeling frustrated and disheartened with our lower levels of energy and reduced productivity.
But what if there was a better way to approach the winter season? How can we hibernate but not stagnate; comfort ourselves without self-sabotage and find the light these dark months have to offer?
Chartered psychologist and self-care expert Suzy Reading has devised 7 steps to not only survive but to feel nourished, healthy and inspired in the winter months. By embracing the lessons from the natural world - from regulating light activity to warming body movements - you will learn how to alter your daily rhythms so that you can embrace winter.
Through honouring lower energy levels and listening to what your body needs in the colder months, this can be an opportunity to rekindle joy and find fulfilment in every season of life.
Approaching winter doesn't have to be full of dread - so snuggle in and learn the key to thriving in the colder months.
