Greetings!
Are you as anxious to get your fingers in the dirt as we are?
Our Mother Earth has graciously given us these months of dark and cold to going inward, strengthen our core, rest our bodies, and listen to our inner wisdom.
Now it is time for that work to bring forth fruit ... and flowers ... and grass ... and bird song ... and sunshine ...
Are you ready?
The Inn is bursting with new buds just waiting to open. We passionately hope you will be part of our Spring Garden!

MERRY'S MUSINGS

Prayer for a Return to Living from My Spiritual Core
God/Goddess, my life is out of balance, stressful, unauthentic, and not fulfilling. I have said too many yeses when I should have said no; I have stuffed and stifled my voice when I should have spoken my truth. I have filled up my to-do list out of guilt, embarrassment, or ego (do I really think I'm the savoir of every situation?).
I have spent too much time with too many people and no time in nature and no time with myself.
I have not spoken up against wrong behavior toward others or toward me . . . why? What am I afraid of?
