Happy Autumn

Happy Autumn everyone! I have to grab this opportunity to acknowledge this season before winter arriving.

Fall is a busy season here at Gentle Light as I have been seeing some new clients, doing some learning, and grabbing the opportunity to enjoy the season with daughter and dog before we all bundle up for the white snow. (Well, the dog will be fine with the snow!)

Autumn is colourful and pretty. Though I also want to acknowledge that sometimes, with the weather getting a bit chilly, it can all get us to be a bit moody sometimes. The night also comes a bit earlier as well. I remember feeling a bit down last week when it was gloomy and wet few days in a roll.

A tip here. Some people would get a “HappyLight” or any light that mimics natural sunlight. Have you notice that some plants need some help from indoor lights? Humans can get one to try too. It works for some people!

Autumn is also the season to restore and reserve. Animals are running around getting their food stored. Some plants are quietly getting ready for the winter and for the spring bloom next year.

Remember to do some self-care at this time. Getting a bath and sipping on a nice cup of tea. Be gentle with your moods and thoughts.

If you are considering getting professional support at this time, please feel free to seek counselling with me, at Gentle Light Counselling.
