I'm so with you in taking things slower during this winter hibernation period -- it's been hard to unlearn patterns from hustle culture, but taking it one day at a time and grounding ourselves in the present has been supportive in this process. 💖
also, i recently bought the birkenstock bostons back in september last year (i also was mindful in my purchases and tried not to be swayed in a "trend") & they fit my lifestyle super well too! i love mules in general, so i wasn't surprised, but the cozy vibes they give bring so much joy in my life too.
hope this winter period treats you well & that you continue to care for yourself however you can. 💞
Good to hear about the Birkenstocks! I’m wearing them with socks too so hoping they’ll last me years. The fuss free part of me is also massively appreciating how easy they are to slip on and off 😂
Love this Jodie! I feel like wintery walks and quiet times are a great space for reconnecting with podcasts 🥰 also funnily again we are quite in sync as I’ve just started sharing moments from my life (as having a baby means I can’t write more or regularly) but I love that you shared the flip side too. I also love your spring walks - very forest bathing ethos ❤️
Sounds like a great idea - think you’re naturally delving into the practices anyway. If you ever want to chat about it I’m always very happy to discuss forest bathing / therapy stuff 🥰 just ping me a message
Wow Jodie, moving on from that job sounds like it was the perfect thing for you! I can easily find my creative energy clogged up by the wrong work, and it's a brave step to actually do something about it. Loved today's post 💜
I love this! 🤍 I was struck with an awful cold during the second week of the month and that lasted 2 weeks until I even started to feel like myself again, so really I’ve been trying to take things a day at a time. I have a renewed sense of energy now I’m on the other side of it.
I’d love to join a book club! Sadly, there’s none local to me that I know of, and I’m such a slow reader that I always feel like I’d be behind if I did join one, as I probably wouldn’t be able to keep up.
Love the idea of spring spotting walks🙌 I've realized I do a version of this already, I do a weekly walk around the botanical gardens near my house and love seeing the different seasons cycle through. it gives me such peace!
Also I'm moving jobs again, so point 7 is very appropriate, trusting my intuition....I feel I'm making the right move.
love this❤️ me too, I was already doing it and find it such a comfort to notice how much local spaces change, even in a week! Sending love for the job move - hope it all goes well!

Funny you say that as forest bathing is something I want to experiment more with this year 😌

That TikTok was wonderful 🤍
Can’t imagine weekly EMDR. Found it SO emotionally draining. Well done.
Life is all about contrasts..... finding balance and your own kind of harmony when you can. I am looking forward to February now.xx
