There’s always a buzz of electric energy around this time of the year - when the days reach the zenith of shortest daylight hours in the Northern hemisphere while simultaneously welcoming the longest daylight hours in the Southern hemisphere.

Do you feel the magic of this season in the air?

A time for celebrations of all kinds, and lively gatherings with family and friends, and simultaneously a time for retreating inward to reflect on the year that has passed and to plan for the year that is fast approaching.

Though I’m usually the type of person who loves reflecting on the past and imagining the future yet to come, I am feeling a call to take time to stay rooted in the present moment in these final days of 2024.
