“Plants and animals don’t fight the winter; they don’t pretend it’s not happening and attempt to carry on living the same lives that they lived in the summer. They prepare. They adapt. They perform extraordinary acts of metamorphosis to get them through. Winter is a time of withdrawing from the world, maximising scant resources, carrying out acts of brutal efficiency and vanishing from sight; but that’s where the transformation occurs. Winter is not the death of the life cycle, but its crucible.” - Katherine May, Wintering We will be doing our own version of retreat this season - slowing down, making space for creativity and solidifying our processes - so that we can arrive in the spring with something worthwhile to share. Wishing you all the rest you need this winter! ✨✨✨
