:"Perhaps, most importantly, Hermit encourages the radical act of doing nothing of consequence for a bit in order to alchemize and integrate our experiences. It is not an escape from the world, but rather, a necessary stop on the way back to it, so that we might re-emerge with a replenished spirit."
I cannot express how much this idea resonates with me in the present moment. I've been struggling myself (the good struggle in awareness of it) to find a way back to more solid ground in my creative life. It is a relief to think that purposefully taking the time to allow yourself a pause to get where you need to be is not only possible, but valid. Thank you for the gifts you give to this community. They are timely, provocative, and really catalyze the spirit.
Thank you for the alternative journaling prompts. I’m usually frantic this time of year to overhaul my life and that is not feeling like the move!
Oh good! I’m so glad you’re feeling it ❤️❤️
I love your List of More.
Thank you, Shay!
