Wintering

1/25/2022

 
Wintering by Katherine May has transformed my winter.  A client suggested this book in early December - both my daughter and I read it, loved it, and were inspired to make changes to embrace winter itself and the winters in life.  

One practice inspired by the book was using the sauna regularly.  I have taken to sauna-ing two to three times a week - a practice I really haven’t had since living in Russia.  There is no greater pleasure than being warm.  I follow with a cold shower.  My energy and focus for the rest of the day is completely dialed in.  Additionally, my skin is loving the pre and post sauna treatment with the Pomona Skin - goodbye winter dry skin.  I get to detox and boost my immune system all with a 15 minute time commitment.

The book inspired me to enjoy more soups and broths and hot matcha.  

As it relates to life - magically the book has evoked more patience in me for the process of life.  I am definitely one who could live in perpetual summer, but May reminds us in so many ways that the quiet, more insulated times of life are necessary for more robust and expansive springs and summers.  Also, not to fight the quiet times or the times of healing because they are as much part of the cycle of life as are the seasons.  
love,
Julia
