Savouring The Season…

L1140430 4

We’re sinking into the season, Joss and I.  Practising mindfulness.  In various small ways.

If you’d like to join us, there are just three days left to sign up for Falling Into Place – the Dixon Hill e-course.  It’s a sure-fire way to ground yourself….in your surroundings….in the moment.  A way to connect.  A fantastic way to savour the season.

Two Years Old!

DSC_0002 5(3)

It’s a beautiful autumn day here in Dixon Hill land – the perfect day for a birthday!

Which is fortuitous – because it just so happens we’re celebrating one.  A special one at that.  Today my beloved blog is two years old!

That’s pretty young, I acknowledge – even for a blog.  But, like a proud mama, I smile at its progress so far and look forward to seeing what it grows into in the future.

If you have a glass – or cup – of something to hand, then join me in a toast: to my toddler blog and all the lovely folk who find their way here to visit!  Thank you all!

The Nature Table: September

NT September

It’s all fruit and fungi on the nature table this month….with a few fallen leaves in between. 

It’s the bountiful harvest of the hedgerows - a feast with which to begin autumn; and a surplus to squirrel away for the dark days of winter.

Our virtual display space is crammed to overflowing with apples, rowan berries, rosehips, blackberries, elderberries and other ambrosial treats. 

Best not to eat the toadstools, though - unless you want to vanish into a wacky dreamland (or worse!).

Ten Days To Go…

IMG_1328(31)

Just ten days to go before the start of Falling Into Place, the Dixon Hill e-course.  And here are ten potential ways you could use the course if you join us this autumn.

1.  As a means of getting to know your surroundings better.

2.  As a tool to help you explore a new environment.

3.  As artistic prompts to help you respond creatively to the world around you.

4.  As a way of finding your place in the bigger picture.

5.  As time out for yourself each day in the midst of a busy life.

6.  As a parent/child activity.

7.  As a celebration of the season.

8.  As a holiday (vacation) project.

9.  As a way to reclaim your inner child.

10. As a means of getting in touch with yourself and/or something bigger.

Though we moan about it…..the rain loves us!
