Quiet, Tea and Dogs

“A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good, and who are not accustomed to have it done to them; then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books, music, love for one’s neighbour — such is my idea of happiness.”
~ Leo Tolstoy

I’m finally home at our little farm house after a very successful retreat.

But it was full on! I worked around the clock to support my students and to hold space for their journey and transformation.

I’m beyond tired, but in the way of happy exhaustion rather than broken by overwhelm and illness.

Today I’m gifting myself quiet time, garden walks, acupuncture, a good coffee and lots of cuddles with Ben and the dogs. No work for me. No screen time. I need a few days to come back into flow with the outside world after being so deeply immersed in the spiritual.

Here’s my best medicine for a weary soul…

And I hope you find some time for yourself today too. Lots of love, Nicole xx
