Solstice Greetings!

The holidays are upon us, holy moments and whole-making moments that I trust will be beautiful for you as we move toward that marker of lengthening days and the subsequent shift to increasing light: the winter solstice. 

These final darker, colder weeks are the perfect opportunity for reflection about what has transpired and what might be coming as one year ends and the next begins. 

For TEALarbor stories, it has been a very exciting year of increased opportunities to be of service to clients as well as a diversification of what we can do together in the mentor/client, guide/client relationship. This is only possible because of you - yes, you the reader of this newsletter. In no small measure - each reader, client, workshopper, inquirer, writer, "Like"r of Facebook posts, retweeter, forwarder of emails, clicker of links, supporter and friend has contributed to the successful year TEALarbor stories has enjoyed. 

There is nothing better than watching a book idea grow from conception to manuscript, seeing a client successfully find peace and direction via the twists and turns of a life transition, or bearing witness to the creative process as a person spends guided time on the land. This is the passionate work I'm called to do and it is my great blessing and pleasure to receive your contribution to this effort:  the many ways that you give back.

May your winter holy time be filled with warmth, love, peace, introspection, earthy engagement, and perhaps even a few penned pages...
