Episode 43: Makahiki & the Winter Solstice — a Season of Renewal ❄️

As we approach the Winter Solstice on December 21st, I wanted to talk about Makahiki, which is a Hawaiian season of rest, gratitude, and renewal 🤍✨

Makahiki reminds us that slowing down is not falling behind. That rest is part of our cycles and allows us to then after step into a renewal 🌱

The winter solstice lands at the peak of this season of rest (celebrated from October to February), and serves as a turning point where darkness begins to turn to light 🤍

This season teaches us to honor both the dark and the light. How shedding what no longer serves us or our “darkness”, makes room for lightness, balance, and renewal. Like yin and yang, both energies have value and create a balance ☯️

I hope this episode grounds you as we approach the solstice and brings you some love, light, and aloha on your aloha Friday 🫶🏼🤍🌴✨
