Winter Solace

Winter finally arrived and I realized this is the 2nd year of the last five I haven't taught "Winter Solace: A Journey Within"...I have been on my own inner journey for over a year now.  My main goal has been to simplify and unfortunately teaching, writing and blogging has had to be a part of that for now.  Of course, my journal stays by my side in this journey:) 
If you could or needed to create your own sabbatical, what would it look like? What steps can you take to nourish your soul?  Create a character sketch of self balanced, at peace & life giving...try an art journal page as well.  Happy New Year!
