BUT there are some things you can do to help improve your mind & mood such as journaling or talking to a friend. Thank you @aeasleyillustrations for this beautiful video about how to engage the outdoors this winter.

Nature break to help release stress & anxiety. Take a few slow breaths in & out. Listen to the birds & notice the gentle breeze. What is one good thing you can be grateful for in this moment?
Summer Dates on SALE for all stays. 🙌🏻 💦
Here is your 1 minute nature break. Breathe, listen, notice, & relax.
“To have a conscious, embodied awareness of being known by God is a necessary feature of the life of loving God, & our awareness of being known by God is measured by the degree to which we are known by each other.”
The Soul of Desire, by Curt Thompson
As April came to a close, eight of us gathered together for a weekend of slowness and refreshment. Little did most of these women expect to find encouragement, laughter, hope, & gentle encounters with God.
How do I know this happened? I watched it unfold like a new spring flower welcomes the sun. The awkwardness of meeting new people thawed into riotous laughter, deep - honest conversations, & an eventual exchange of numbers.
Everyone embraced “not knowing the next thing” and leaned into curiosity and patience. These small steps birthed delight and wonder as we discovered unique things in nature and within ourselves.
Slowing down …
We secretly crave it, know that we need it, and cringe thinking we will be the odd one if we do. Our world has accepted being busy as normal. It is time to embrace some new ways of thinking and doing.
Breathe
In slowly and then out slowly.
Repeat, and as you do, remind yourself that God does love you (even if you don’t feel it or believe it.) Because, “I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion…” Phil. 1:6
Are you feeling overwhelmed by stress or the pace of life? Are you struggling in your relationship with God? Do you feel conflicted or challenged about juggling kids and all the junk on the internet?
It is okay.
You are welcome here.

Last weekend was full of so much laughter & honesty. These ladies braved some challenging conversations as well as a rainy day nature walk. (Let’s just say, lying on the ground as a gentle rain fell was more soothing than anyone expected!)
