It's a powerfully long day, the 21st June. It holds a special moment in our annual calendar. The summer solstice is the day the sun stands still.

It was a on a mid summers day 6 years ago when we moved into the place we now live. It was a blazing hot day and the sun certainly stood still for us as we piled our life into our house, hoping to transform it into our home.

Transformation of a building into a home takes time. You will know yourselves that there is a moment when you feel "ownership" of a space - not in having the deeds of a house on file, but in having the spirit of the house in your heart. For us to start to feel it was truly "ours" (at least for now) we've been making changes and gradually shaping it as we created new spaces, energy and flow which work for us as a family.

Yet from the outside nothing has changed.

So it is with our own transformations. We look the same. We feel different. At a certain moment, we realise we feel new. Alive. At home. Welcome. Purposeful. Like we're in the right place.

We created a new space in our home this month which opened up a new view, a new perspective. Without ever knowing that this had been missing in us, this space is now a vital part of our home, something we can't imagine now being without.

Why not take the opportunity to see how you are transforming yourself and your life from the inside out? What is new in you since last year? What perspectives are opening up? What, for you, is your biggest constant? Where do you feel new, different, more alive?

Join old friends and new at my Open House next week. It's a chance to celebrate what my diary this year says is actually the longest day! There'll be a free swing in my hammock, a cuppa, and a sprinkling of Alive to Change magic to get you connected. I'd love to find out what's changing for you too!
