Solstice Blessings one and all! ❄️

May you find peace in the promise of the solstice night,
that each day forward is blessed with more light.
That the cycle of nature, unbroken and true,
brings faith to your soul and well-being
to you.
Rejoice in the darkness, in the silence find rest.
And may the days that follow be abundantly blessed. 💫

A heart aligned with love and purpose amplifies global coherence...

Reclaim your calm with this free 3 day Ayurveda Self-Care course.

Like a hearty breakfast is food for the body, as meditation is food for the mind.🧘‍♀️

A good meditation should balance all dosha types, but certain techniques can be more beneficial to balance a specific dosha.🙏

KAPHA minds are better being kept busy, or may become sluggish or even fall asleep when you try to meditate. 🥱

VATA minds are more prone to stress, and you may have more trouble getting it to stay still or stop worrying. 🤕

A person with a PITTA tendency is more prone to agitation and like Vata needs to be calm and relaxed. 😊

Winter Solstice Blessings one and all! ❄️

MID-WINTER SOLSTICE BLESSINGS to our dear Earth Pathways community...

May we willingly release the things we no longer need, and follow our hearts on a journey into the new light…

May we plant the seeds of our dreams with hope
May we nurture them with love and courage, passion and belief
May we watch them grow strong, sharing our joys with those who are special to us
May our harvests be abundant and gratefully received
And may we celebrate often as community, remembering in our hearts where we truly belong

And always …

May there be peace in our hearts, in our land, and in our world
May we honour each other with kindness and inclusion
May we care for the earth and all her beauty, treasuring her gifts to us
May love surround us
And may we trust that the changes that come are for the good of all.

Solstice blessings one and all 🌞

The standing of the sun - a turning point in the earth’s cycle

Take a moment to stop, be still and look back at your own unique journey since Winter Solstice. Celebrate your achievements, all you have learned and how you’ve grown.

As you stand on the threshold, the doorway to the second half of the year, think about what you wish to encourage in your life. Utilise the energy of this light to energise the path ahead.

💭 Dare to dream - allow them to blossom 🌺

Take time outdoors, feet on the earth and relish in the abundance of nature in full bloom 🌍 🌱💚

WINTER SOLSTICE BLESSINGS

Pause, be still, reflect.

Enfold yourself in the magic of this special time and let it enfold you. This longest darkest night is a time for deep dreaming. Dream big. What are the hopes you carry inside that await to be born with the sun's returning light? What hopes do you hold for your loved ones, your community, the world? What hopes do you hold for our beautiful Earth? May the sun’s returning seed all of your precious hopes and dreams, gently nurturing them through Winter’s cold to emerge in the warming Spring. Blessed be.

There is a lovely idea in the Celtic tradition that if you send out goodness from yourself, or if you share that which is happy or good within you, it will all come back to you multiplied ten thousand times. In the kingdom of love there is no competition, there is no possessiveness or control. The more love you give away, the more love you will have.
