What can you do in 28 days? As we begin a new year, we might reflect on the months gone by as well as setting intentions or making resolutions for the months ahead. These might not be sweeping, life-altering intentions – but they don’t always need to be – sometimes small shifts in your behaviour or thinking can be the beginning of something wonderful.

As winter blankets our world, it’s a time for introspection and self-care. The chilly months invite us to turn inward, focusing on our well-being and finding solace amidst the cold. One powerful way to embrace this winter season is through the ancient healing art of Reiki. Derived from Japanese tradition, Reiki is not just a practice; it’s a holistic experience that can rejuvenate your body, mind, and soul during the winter months. 

Let’s explore why Reiki is a beacon of warmth and wellness, in the midst of winter.

We’re turning our focus towards cosier days – warm clothes, woolly blankets, candle-light nights and other comforting ways to sustain ourselves through the colder days (and nights). 

BUT it’s important to find a balance and not hibernate completely. Staying active during this season can help to combat SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder), as well as keep your mind sharp and your body working – so you can hit the ground running come Springtime!

Autumn brings a promise of harvest, bounty and colour. For sun-seekers and summer-lovers, this seasonal shift can mark the slow slide towards winter days and long nights. For some of us it can feel cold and dreary as we mourn summer’s end. 

Whilst it’s important not to underestimate the effects that the changing seasons can have on mind and body, remember that with every ending, something new begins. We can try to find beauty in all the seasons – even if this one isn’t your favourite – as the wheel keeps turning, and we find ourselves in the next season of our life.
