Frost on the rooftops, winter settling in with shortening days, heading towards the solstice. A time for cultivating warmth inside and out. Everything slows down in nature including the needs of our own body. Where I can, I snuggle inwards with cosy food, slow days, big jumpers, nourishing reads and food to make my insides happy; as ever, guided by Ayurveda.
This really chimes with me. I'm really craving sweet carbs, especially in the mornings but these days, as I'm shopping and cooking differently (almost not supermarket!) they tend to be homemade bread with jam or 'breakfast cake' (a low-sugar yoghurt cake). The other day I had to take a friend on a long cold day trip and her daughter provided us with a picnic of cucumber and cold sweet potato. It smelt delicious but we didn't want it. We went to the chip shop!
Love this late fall and wintertime medicine, Lucy. Probably because it's deeply needed to balance out my own tendencies and patterns. Thank you as always for the nourishing reminder and inspiration.
When you go to Norway for Christmas, I’d like to come too! ☺️ What an adventure we’d have!! ❄️ xx
