Hello lovely people,
Thank you for checking in. I am so glad this thread has been helpful for you. 🥰
I am catching up on everyone's messages from the past week, then I shall give our intentions some much-needed TLC! I am sorry I haven't been around as much, please know that I am thinking of you all. 🫶
Do you have any ideas for some intention-setting themes we could explore this month? @Shaz51 @Dimity ✨

I'm not sure @AuntGlow . For me I'm thinking about the change of season. What to ramp up or where I can ease down. A friend is starting to think about Seasonal Affective Disorder again.

Noting the change of season could be really helpful - acknowledging where we may need 'ramp up or slow down' is a great intention. What are you leaning towards?
And yes, SAD is very much a thing for many (including myself). Do you notice it impacts you much? And if so, what might you need to feel more supported during the seasonal shift? @Dimity 🫶

Boost time outside as sunlight weakens (boost outdoor activity - walking and gardening). So I need to be fitter, and comply with my exercise regime.
Reduce mindless screentime. But enjoy more slow time with books and music. Lately I've been trying a daily lectio practice with poetry and other readings.
And I'm steeling myself to do hard life admin tasks I'd been unable to face.

Ah, these are wonderful intentions - ones I would like to explore too! (Especially being active outside and slowing down with analogue media). I can see both of these activities really helping @Dimity 💛
What is one life admin task you'd like to do this week?

@AuntGlow I need to sort out some banking... I took the first steps tonight.
There's other pressing stuff too but that would be a start.
