I’m a solstice birthday girl ( December 21 1951) and so I took your gorgeous pitch- perfect solstice meditation as my own personal birthday card of wisdom. Merry melancholy — nice. I had a wonderful restorative day… the light is getting longer now.. Thank you 🙏

Ah, Kate! Happy, happy birthday and happy Solstice, too! What a day to be born on. And I love hearing the day was restorative. Here comes the light.
