Who else loves the rain? Raindrops that hit the window must be one of the most meditative and calming sounds that exists. The fortune teller I met this fall, told me that I need to get earthy; swim in the lake, spend time bare foot and get touchy-feely with mud, sand and other materials of nature. Maybe that’s why I love rain so much, because I can physically feel it on my skin?

Finally, my husband is coming home today. He’s been away a lot lately. The quality of my sleep decreases significantly when he’s away, not just because he usually lets me sleep in and takes the night with the kids, but because I can’t fully relax when I’m alone.

For the first time in years, I’m feeling very effected by the grey darkness we live in right now, but at the same time, I’m feeling so excited about all my upcoming projects, goals and most of all Christmas! Visualizing your goals is a big energy booster for me. It’s really worth giving it a try. I love Christmas and I’m focusing all my thoughts towards the holidays. I can already see myself slowing down, eating chocolate and spending lots of times outdoors with the kids. Christmas is always the perfect reminder of what’s important in life.

Although it’s the most hectic time of the year, I’m feeling chilled today. For once, I’m not letting all the pressure get to me. Must be an effect of the rain…
