January has a lot of opinions about how we're meant to begin the year — and most of them are loud, fast, and not especially kind to our nervous systems. But nature tells a very different story.

In this episode:

• Why January culture and January nature are telling us completely different things
• The relationship between winter and your nervous system
• Simple daily practices for letting nature guide your beginning (nothing fancy required)
• A powerful shift from "what do I want to make happen?" to "what wants me this season?"
• Why you're not behind — you're wintering

If you're longing for permission to begin this year differently — gently, in relationship with the season you're actually in — this episode is for you.

Mentioned in this episode: The Life Compass Curriculum & Community — now open for enrollment with special bonuses including a Spring Nature Quest weekend and a one-to-one deep dive. Details at connectionmatters.co.uk
