It’s Coming. Are You Ready?

Darkness is coming, but do not fear.

Darkness is necessary, balancing the year out beautifully if we choose to welcome its embrace.

Darkness can be deeply healing. Surrendering our body and mind to its care creates true rest for us.

Darkness is nature’s reminder to hit the off switch that gets buried in the busyness of our lives, but becomes easier to find when the nights draw in.

But do we make the most of this precious gift?

Studies have found strong evidence that sleeping in true darkness at night is linked to better health and longevity. Yet in this bright, sparkly world we’ve created for ourselves, it can be eradicated at the touch of a button.

Which means goodnight to complete rest, to recharging, to balance.

So this season, I’m embracing the dark at every opportunity with my trusty sleep mask, salt lamps and a bucketful of candles. I’m ready to settle in and let it hold me.

Maybe this week we can all let a little more darkness in.

Darkness is coming, but do not fear.

Thank you for being here. Sending love and kindness.
