*sound on!* 🌧️ Today there was a shift in the winds and Mother Earth had a wonderful release of rain on the land here in Northern California. I feel profoundly connected to nature and am grateful for the spaciousness I have today to let this rain be a reminder of what it means to slow down.
I moved my loom by an open door and worked on hemstitching my weaving project while listening to the rhythms of the rain beating down on Earth like drums. The sound of the linen threads gliding against each other. The shift in aroma of the air and my breathing deepening to really smell it. Meditation.
The busy-ness of everyday life can have a way of taking over. Craft is an incredible tool for slowing down as it asks for undivided attention while something new is being created.
Today’s creation is threads being woven together to create a strong and functional piece of cloth. I am remembering to slow down and enjoy the process, not just strive for the end result.
A sweet little reminder that applies to life too. 🧶 🧵
