"Make the most of your creative time and efforts b "Make the most of your creative time and efforts by becoming more aware of and working with nature’s influence. Autumn energy promotes three areas of focus: maturity moving toward harvest, release of what’s been exhausted, and celebration of both in community. That means: - Recommitting to hard work that will result in a harvest. - Releasing what you no longer need, like a tree dropping leaves. - Connecting with community to celebrate both kinds of work. In most cultures, fall connection is already marked by a string of traditional feasts and year-end holidays." – Joni Sensel '15 in the latest contribution to the Wild Things blog. 🍂 LINK IN BIO! 🔗
