I definitely feel like my introverted, sensitive self has a lot more breathing space in the winter. Permission to stay in and cosy up and not feel guilty of not socialising. Makes me sound like a right weirdo but I love time on my own, or being at home with my partner, each doing our thing, or hanging out together. It is nourishing. Even though I don't get on well with dark and cold, I love the cosiness and time for quiet reflections.

Thank you Louise. I read your post straight after I logged off from a difficult week at my day job and it acted as the perfect transition between tired work brain and relaxed weekend brain. Relaxed weekend brain is now excited for reading under a blanket, knitting by the fire and maybe a nice walk in the hills if the weather behaves. Oh and watching your new video too!

With love from Scotland.

So glad to hear that, Hana. 😌 Oh, I might want to start knitting again, too...

I can absolutely relate to the peace you find in winter time as an HSP. I love the stillness, the way snow clings to the branches and watching the birds gently go about their day in the wonderland. Things just feel simpler in a way.

Also congratulations on finishing your Birds in Flight collection and I’m really looking forward to watching your new video.

I can’t imagine so much snow here in the southern US! But my littles would love it. They’ve been asking for snow, especially when it’s a particularly cold day! Stay safe and congrats on finishing your lovey Bird in Flight collection! 🫶🏻
