Winter Affirmation Week 4
Tools to dig deep into the transformative energy available in connection with this season!
Affirmation:
Allowing my depths to arise and guide,
I dream of my open mind.
Mindful Moment:
Fear pushes me to close down because I am unsafe and incapable.
But when I say no to fear – when I say I will go on despite fear –
That’s when my mind opens to the clear awareness hidden by my habit of fear.
I see that my life isn’t about attaining perfection.
Instead, I allow my inner experience to open and guide.
Spark Notes: writing prompts to spark reflection and contemplation
I’m aware I have these mental capacities…
I’m aware of these habits which make me believe I am less than…
In this moment, I release these stories about myself…
I can open myself to life because…
In this moment, for me I can dream…
Weekly Quote:
Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.

The Transformative Energy of Winter
In the season of Winter, the Soul digs deep into the soil to connect with the creative seeds of dream, hope, and desire.
This is not about determining the exact steps of a path, instead this is about allowing the path to move toward you with gift, presence, and awakening.
Allow the essence of you to step forward, to be heard, to be attended to, to guide.
Within the transformative energy of Winter is time to DREAM.
To Dream: Allowing the depths to arise and guide.
In dream, you don’t hold back.
Instead, the motion of Winter is one of attention and awareness to the roots within as they prepare to give rise to the vision of heart and soul.
Winter holds the warmth of roots to be passed back as the growth of Spring requires nutrition.
The new growth makes a choice about presence and progression, making decisions about shape and expression within the warmth of Summer.
And as the sun completes her journey, the soul reaches to embrace new growth yielding clear intention for next steps, new journey.
As Winter progresses, the inward flow begins the motion out toward the claim of Spring and the outward unleashing of Summer.
The entire year is fueled by Winter dreams.
Your Best Self expands and redefines the path, the journey, the dream of life.
In Winter, allowing the depths to arise guides your Best Self to the dreams of all of you, body, mind, heart, and soul.
