Start of Spring: Checking In

Ralph Waldo Emerson said: " Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not."

  
Speaking of travel, have you ever opted for a "staycation" instead of heading to another destination? I am presently on a Staycation. To me it is a time to have "very limited" access on the business world side of things and a lot of access to self through rest and rejuvenation activities. I have 6 days to go but on the first day, I read the quote above. It reminded me of the beauty in my life because of the people in it - all of you. Whether you are client, friend, colleague or a combination of these, I am so appreciative for having the connections with you. It enhances the beauty of my own life.

I wanted to take a moment to thank you and wish you all
the best that Spring has to offer. It's a time of refreshment and renewal. Often, it's an invitation to create or do something new in some part of our life. I've been signing up for creative workshops and silent retreat days offered locally (in line with my "staycation"). See information at end of email.

So, "Happy Spring!" And, may you enjoy its beauty and time of renewal  whether you are pausing in the present moments or taking a few hours, a day, or more for your own spring break in order to be ready for what this season has in store for you.
