It has been a cold, windy and wild couple of days in Melbourne. But the blossoms are fighting back, reminding us that spring is on her way.
It never ceases to amaze me how slowing down just a tiny bit allows me to connect with with the wider natural world.
The trees and flowers are telling us that the grey clouds will soon be on their way, replaced by sun, warmth and springtime abundance.
Today I only found a tiny pocket of stillness and quite to slow down into, my morning dog walk around the neighbourhood.But that half an hour, with a cup of tea and Dan the Dog, was enough to bring a small sense of calm and readiness for a day in the office.
What daily activities do you do to slow down? I’d love to learn some more helpful habits and practices.
