September blog: The time to slow your roll and bee…………..
This year is has been glorious with the sun warnming the days and the rain subsiding. Yet as fall peaks in he weather just has a different feel with cooler mornings and darkness coming a bit earlier each day. We invite you to notice the crispness in the air and maybe even in the apples as they share their yummy, tangy sweetness. I am sharing some pictures of the flowers from a friends garden and they are beautiful and sleeping quarters now to the bees. I have some seedum in my yard and each morning I go out and notice the bees butts in the air as the bees are snoozing with their tiny faces in the plants and flowers. They work so hard gathering nectar during the day and this time of year seek warmth and sweet sleep in the flowers.
Where in your life are you working hard?
Can you slow down and rest on the ground?
Maybe take out a blanket and pillow and just be with the earth-even for ten minutes. TAKE THE TIME to greet the earth and find yourself-I beleive it is so worth it.
Look and notice deeply through your eyes the lasting beauty of the flowers and you could even see the sleeping bees-be careful!
Hear, see and smell the trees just starting to shed their leaves-feel the crunch under your feet of these leaves as they recycle back to earth and give back nourishment.
