Winter is most
often associated with stillness, darkness, and cold. The earth is resting and
recuperating, making ready for new life to emerge. Our early sunsets and long
nights naturally call us to hibernation. We sit in front of the fire wrapped in
a cozy blanket or tuck under the covers to stay warm. However, our beds are not
the only place of warmth and repose. We can learn to use these winter months to
rest in the warmth of our own inner light and wisdom, to step away from the
demands and noise of modern life, to become still and to listen deeply to the
wisdom that winter brings as it prepares us to emerge into spring with new
understanding and inspiration.
