Adios Winter ❄️
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
Hello Spring 🌼
Welcome back.
There’s no denying this has been a brutal winter. It’s felt never-ending in so many ways. And for me, losing my mom in the middle of it all made the cold feel even heavier… deeper than the season itself.
The past few weeks, especially, this week, have been hard. Physically. Mentally. Emotionally.
My anxiety has been louder than ever, refusing to loosen its grip no matter what. The kind you can’t simply distract away. Even the things that usually help or bring me comfort (like writing) haven’t come easily. Total writer’s block.
I know what I need. I need the trails. I need the return of the #summerofrich. The air. The movement. Nature. The quiet that somehow makes space for everything I’m carrying. And I haven’t been able to get there in months.
But today is the first day of spring.
And somehow, that feels like a small turning point.
After such a long stretch of winter, there’s something especially comforting about those first hints of change and the quiet promise of renewal all around us.
The reminder that even after the coldest, darkest seasons, the ones that feel like they might never end, that things can soften. Not all at once. Not perfectly. But slowly.
Mental health doesn’t shift overnight with the seasons. It doesn’t magically reset just because the calendar tells us it’s spring. Healing isn’t linear like that. But spring does give way to the idea of possibility for lighter days ahead. Even during the heavy days and in the moments that feel too hard to breathe through.
That maybe, slowly, gently… things can begin to thaw.
So I’m holding onto that today with a quiet hope.
Wishing everyone a gentle, healing, and joyful start to the season 🐦⬛🦜
Shabbat Shalom
