Spring: A Time of Renewal 🌿
Spring has arrived - and hasn’t the weather turned it on?
It felt as though someone flicked a switch and turned up the heat the instant the first of September arrived. With that warmth, I have noticed a shift within myself too: more energy, more presence and a deeper awareness of the sounds of spring unfolding around Prana Estate.
A pair of plovers have made their home here and created a nest. We hear them protecting it day and night - and so they should. They are guarding their future family. That is what parents do: protect their children and do the very best they can.
After a quiet and restorative winter - a time of slowing down, turning inward and doing the inner work - I feel a renewed sense of life within me.
There is calm, clarity and excitement for warmer days, the guests I will welcome to Prana Cottage and the women joining us for the Sisterhood Retreat in November.
Spring also brings celebrations: entering my 46th year earthside, our eldest daughter turning 14 and our 18th wedding anniversary.
My wish for this season is for more people to experience the peace and natural beauty of Prana Estate, and for my family to flourish.
Even after the quietest winter, life returns. The light changes, the earth warms and something within us begins to bloom again. 🌼
