Hello beautiful souls,
This is June Bee and thank you for joining me to brighten up your day with positivity and help you to not feel so sad.
This time of the year is a precious time,
It is the time for us to take stock,
Reap the benefits of our hard work all year round,
Hunker down and hibernate,
Celebrate our accomplishments and acknowledge with compassion the ending of one more year.
With the changing of the seasons we have less light and this can affect some of us greatly,
As my name implies,
June Bee in the sun,
I love the sun and all things bright.
So I have had a challenging time myself with there being less light and more dark.
For some this will also cause dark thoughts to encompass the space in your mind that keeps things light and sometimes lead us to become more introverted and very anxious at this time.
No matter what happens in our life,
The only power we may have is our perspective on each situation and being present in this very moment.
So with that being said,
Let us look and focus on the good things about this time of the year and the changing seasons.
Look outside,
As we give thanks for another day,
Observe the falling leaves that are showing us to release things that no longer serve us,
The air that is getting crisp,
The opportunity to get soft furnishings,
Clothes and food to comfort your soul and body at this time of slowing down.
Time for us to prepare ourselves and our homes for colder weather.
Using this time to decorate our homes with pretty coloured lights that make us feel loved and happy.
Taking the time to think about all we have accomplished this year and all the things we may want to embark on for the upcoming year.
Enjoying the change in the season instead of dreading it and taking this time to enjoy those cooler days that give you the opportunity to snuggle up with a warm blanket,
A hot toddy and the warmth of your home and heart.
Give gratitude for the fact that you have seen one more year and look forward to the impending spring season and all the joy and growth to come.
I am humbled we can spend this precious time together.
So why not take this time to think of how you can make your surroundings more comfortable and pleasing to you at this time of the year.
Plan some fun and self-care events for yourself and think on small and meaningful gifts you can buy or make for your loved ones to show your appreciation for all the special times you have spent together this year.
Lastly,
Feel confident and know that this time will pass and there will be more sun on the horizon.
You are safe and all is well.
Let's reframe our thoughts on the name seasonal affective disorder to now mean savouring another day.
Think of all the special moments you have had today.
Reflect on the smiles you shared and feel comforted about the feeling of being happy just because you choose to be.
Enjoy this day and know your place in it is meaningful,
Important and precious.
You can repeat this offering every morning to enhance positivity,
Confidence and endless joy at this time of reflection and change.
So before we close,
Let's say this powerful affirmation together.
I am savouring another day and grateful because all is well in my world.
I am savouring another day and grateful because all is well in my world.
Go forth beautiful souls with a renewed sense of joy and confidence,
Safe in the knowledge that you are always loved,
Guided and protected by the universe.
And so it is.
