InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration

The Pathway to Integrated Living
— Daily reminders for a conscious, connected life —
“Just as there are four seasons in Nature, our inner natures also experience four seasons.” “In Winter we rest, rediscovering our true selves. Without Winter we cannot move into Spring.”
The focus for today is:
“I realize I'm being asked to grow in new ways.”
Today's message is inspired by Meredith Young-Sowers, author of the book: Wisdom Bowls: Overcoming Fear and Coming Home to Your Authentic Self
