Alas the warm weather is here and the sun is shining for the most part. It's summertime.
It's hard to escape the feeling of summer and all the emotions that go with it. Memories from your childhood summers linger in your minds like fuzzy dreams only half remembered when your head hits the pillow on warm summer
nights.
Summer brings about the desire to be someone different, to have courage, to take risks, to be more. It's the season you strive to
become more balanced.
Summertime is always the best of what may be.
~ Charles Bowden
This is the season of hope. Summer makes you dream. You slow down and blame it on the season. You use the excess of sunshine to allow yourselves the luxury of spending more time outside, dining alfresco, dipping your toes in the sea. You
find time to play with your kids, read those novels next to your bed, and more romance seems to be in the air. You inhale more deeply.
This is true for me. I live by the seaside all year round in Spain, and still the summer months have a magic. In Europe the pace of life literally slows down. From late June through late August, the livin' is easy and the fish are jumpin'.
With the slower pace, its easier to make plans to share more time with friends and family. What's better than that? Sharing the gift of time with those you love is one of life's best pleasures.
I am super excited for all of my holiday plans. I'm going to my beloved NYC to see some of my favourite people. It will refill my cup to be with those I love in a place I adore.
What fills your cup up?
Are you slowing down and sharing time with those you love most during these magical lazy days of summer to recharge and replenish? Are you starting to dream your dreams again?
When the sun's shining I can do anything; no mountain is too high, no trouble too difficult to overcome.
~ Wilma Rudolp.
In these magical moments, it is a perfect time to start to plan for how to keep this lovely, slow-living and balanced feeling going the whole year through. Slowing down makes your dreams become more vivid, your visions more clear. Capture
this now and you can fulfil it later.
Make your home have that summer vibe all year long.
Your home can be the perfect balm for your life in the non-summer months. Your environment can radiate sunshine and happy memories when you need it most. Using this season of hope & balance to help you capture what makes your heart
dance in a slower rhytm and make design plans so you get this vibe all year round.
