How would next month feel if you could tune gently into the sea’s wisdom each morning? Especially when you’re landlocked, overwhelmed, and racing through your calendar towards Christmas…
However life has unfolded for the rest of the year, December is a month when we can often find ourselves recaptured by old stories and patterns of behaviour.
I feel them arrive in the to-do list that decries the power of the pause. In the slow zipping of my breath tight to my chest as I find myself breathing for everyone else. In the shrink-wrapping of space and time.
Luckily, I know now that these sensations are simply timely reminders to seek out pockets of peace. They are my body’s request to recommit to simple daily practices. And spirit’s call to “Come back to yourself. Back to the ocean within.”
So, as a daily gift to inspire us all to find those moments of pause, I’m creating a free Sea Soul Adventure Calendar in December. And this is your advance invitation to join me by the sea, over on Substack from 1 – 24 December. It’s free.
Whether or not you celebrate Christmas, it’s almost impossible to escape the pressure that builds in December: “Christmas” as a feast of consumerism and a weighty sack of impossible expectations.
This is a time that awakens memories, old patterns, fears and hopes. Reminders of grief and longing. Of the shadow and the light. Of presence and absence. It’s a time when we can feel alone, sad, frustrated and stuck. Here in the northern hemisphere, it’s also cold and dark – and there’s less opportunity to get out into nature.
So let me bring the sea to you. Instead of the heightening tension of the Christmas countdown – all that ‘buy now, only 3 weeks to go!’ – come join me to open a tiny window to the ocean every morning from the 1st to the 24th December.
Where will we adventure?
Each day, I’ll share a short post here on Substack and by email. You’ll have a sea view, a fresh Sea Soul Journeys Oracle Card mantra, and an optional journal prompt.
And yes, it’s a busy time. So the plan is that it will only take as long as it would to find the numbered window on an advent calendar, open it up, and eat the chocolate within.
Each of these daily offerings will be inspired by my favourite soul journey themes of self-compassion, gratitude and awe.
May these gentle ocean invitations connect the waters within you to the vast possibility of the sea – in your breath, in your heart, in your soul. And may they guide you gently through the day ahead, always held by the waves.
It’s free. All you need to do is subscribe to my brand new Substack to get a little Sea Soul Adventure email from me and the sea every morning.
I actually got my very first three Substack pledges too (one was my mum)! So of course, if you would like to support me in that way, I would love that! You might even inspire me to launch something very special in January.
In the meantime, I invite you to bring your whole self to this Sea Soul Adventure – the shadow and the light – this December.
Come venture deeper into your ocean soul. I can’t wait to share these gifts with you.
