Book Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times
This is an automatically translated description
Sometimes our lives go awry: a sudden illness, the death of a loved one, divorce, job loss - all of these can throw us off our routine. Katherine May experienced her own period of "winter": her husband fell ill, her son stopped attending school, and her health problems forced her to quit her job. This is a heartfelt story that offers us ways to take care of ourselves and recover during the winter. What's more, sporadic harsh winters are beneficial. We need to stop perceiving these periods of our lives as something meaningless, a nervous breakdown, a lack of willpower. We should not try to ignore or reject them. They are real and they ask for something from us. We need to learn to invite winter. We may not be wintering by choice, but we can choose how we do it.
