The Spring Alive eBook 2020 edition of my Seasonal Living series goes out TONIGHT in celebration of Spring which officially begins here in the southern hemisphere on the 1st September.

The past weekend was all Spring .. she came with bright blue sunny skies, and without any conscious thought our household started opening windows and doors, pumping up the music and diving into a spring clean frenzy! And then the winds came .. gale warning level .. and the trees and outdoor furniture were thrown about, overnight there was rain. And today. All is still and the birds are singing LOUD. Spring is all yang-energy and sometimes we will get four seasons in one day (it’s a well known and loved Melbourne phenomena).

It was in 2018 (“the Winter of my Resistance“) that I started this seasonal journey .. and found some tools and practices that completely changed my understanding and experience of the world around me. My mindset changed when I made a commitment to: *Finding the gifts, large and small, that the Season and Mother Nature provided .. every single day = Mindful Awareness practice, and *Giving thanks for those gifts, pausing ‘in the moment’ to take a picture on my phone, and then giving thanks = Gratitude practice. And this is where the Seasonal Living eBook series began .. and my passion for Seasonal Mindfulness, a term that I came up with to express how we can bring a mindful awareness, and gratitude, to the unique gifts of each season.
