    I crave silence,at least the absence of man made noise.When I’m aware if the birds singing and leaves rustling,of winds blowing and squirrel chatter,I feel close to the Creator and in the rhythm of the Holy Spirit.

    Love the outdoor date night. My husband and I do that alot actually we have a fire pit in our backyard that becomes a magical place when the fire is crackling and we have time to sit an talk .

    You have achieved the unachievable in today’s society a peaceful loving relationship with your spouse which is one of the greatest blessings from Yah on His children and Satan hated it from the beginning. May it last eternally and May all of Yah’s children have peace, unconditional love and understanding in their marriage. Be blessed!

    I definitely feel the same about "spring" cleaning in winter. I feel more motivated to clean and de clutter our home in winter. By spring, I'm itching to spend more of my days outside in the garden and on walks; I don't want to be cooped up inside while the world is coming alive 🌱🧺

  • @tscarletespin2261
    @tscarletespin2261 Před 8 měsíci +13

    I agree with you. I prefer to do my decluttering and “spring cleaning” in the winter. I find that I’m more energized and motivated in the cloudy, rainy, cold and dark days. I hate the spring and summer heat here in Texas, so I tend to be more drained during the hot months. Anyhow, loved this video, as I do all of your videos. ❤

    When I saw your doggie just laying by the fire , it reminded me of my late "Peaches" who passed a year ago in September! I wish i could say we have a wood burning stove, we don't, but she would lay by the electric heater we have. My comfort is that I live in my mother-in-law's old home that my husband renovated. It is cozy, old, wooden floors, and we kept the original footprint, just brought it a new life! It is small, but it is just right!

  • @01happykat
    @01happykat Před 8 měsíci +1

    Thank you!!!! I've started the tradition of choosing a word from God at the beginning of each year to focus on, and funny how the word "discomfort" has already come up for me to focus on for 2024. I know I need to learn to sit better with discomfort and still focus on the areas where I'm still deficient for2023's word. I've also allowed myself to slow down this past fall instead of rushing everywhere all the time. It's been an extraordinary blessing. Thank you for another beautiful video! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

    I have just subscribed, I like your style and your wisdom in doing things in peace and in the Love of GOD and quiet times I so love quiet and staying home. I live slow really slow. I am familiar with winter, we live in north east Michigan. Not far from Lake Huron and when the winds blow off the lake it gets extremely cold and blowsy. I enjoy making soups and that is supper most days. You are an inspiration and a delight. Thank you.

    I am entering the winter of my life. When I was young I detested the cold and winter. As I have gotten older I have embraced it and look forward to it each year. Like you it gives me time to focus on so much I ignored during spring and summer. Plus I can rewind and renew as well.

    I’m folding my 3yo daughter’s laundry while I watch this. I love your thoughts.
    Also, I was fascinated by that “smokeless fire pit” and was going to ask about it, but then you mentioned it. We can’t burn actual fire pits in my neighborhood due to smoke pollution so this looks like the perfect way to get my fireside cravings in!

It’s nice to see you do partnerships with products that every single other CZcamsr aren’t currently doing. 😊 Hope you find peaceful rest this winter season and make your home into a sweet little haven of comfort as you declutter! I also like decluttering when I’m spending more time indoors. ❤

    great to see your husband today...
    our favourite date night is in the back of the ute, on a mountain with a great view. snacks, lots of pillows and blankets at sunset..
    have a blessed end of year, reflect, repent of sins and may the fake new year bring you joy ( we don't have the correct calendar)
    may more lies be revealed, in the world may the world be flooded with compassion and humility..
    praise the greatest monarch of our universe✨🙏🥀

    That is lovely. "The Art of winter!" My husband used to say "The art of doing nothing" for years and years (and we used to run a podcast a decade ago where we talked about it) and now I see it being tossed around. I think the "art of winter" will allow for myself to enjoy it better, as it is my least favorite season. I think it is so important to rest, as I feel that is a bit of what we are to do in the winter time. Most people are rushing around this time of year too.
    Reading "The Long Winter" is perfect for this time of year.
    I do December decluttering too, so I can start the new year fresh (granted I don't have much left to declutter anymore).
    Oh man, it must be so warm in your home with the fire there.
    Also, not sure if you check your IG messages, as I am sure you get a lot, but I once asked if colostrum is safe for nursing moms to drink. Now I ask the same about collagen peptides too.
    Your chickens are so loved and it is so cute.

      Colostrum is very safe so long as you aren't specifically allergic to it, but most people can take it and thrive on it. Collagen peptides are also very safe.

    Loved this video Lea!! The format was great, and I appreciated the time with you and James. I'm looking forward to winter for the first time in a long time. I stopped working last May, and knowing that the pressure is off me to be at a job when the weather is bad or roads are dangerous, is such a relief and a blessing. And, my body doesn't do all the things it used to do, in the amount of time I used to do them 😂 So, knowing that I can just be indoors and rest is a joy. If it's too cold or too snowy, I'll just reschedule that appointment or go to Walmart another day. There's something to be said for getting older. Thanks again ❤

    I love that book you displayed, The Long Winter. Laura Ingalls wrote true stories of her childhood. I was delighted to see a. Wikipedia entry for Cap Garland recently with a photo. He was one of the heroes of The Long Winter.

    I feel like those of us in warmer states (like south Texas) really miss out on this restful season. We can, most of these winter months, continue on like nothing is amiss. We usually have the AC running at Christmas gatherings. We never slow down during these months and I don’t think that’s a good thing…..

    I love the winter. I love the silence. I love the gentleness of the snow and the displays of Yah’s power in the storms. And I absolutely adore having fires in the fireplace.

    I can’t tell you how much I loved hearing, 14:12 “sure baby,” when you asked if he would like to join you. So, so sweet. You are a lovely couple.
    Love the new mustache, btw. 😊

    I live in New England. The Boston, Massachusetts area of the world. I find that in the winter I want to slow down. Like the animals outside and their natural knowing of hibernating. I also see that my cravings for food change with the late fall and winter. I want hardier meals that as my grandmother used to say "stick to my ribs" and stay with me longer. I want porridge in the morning and soups stews, freshly baked breads and root veg this time of year. I crave wanting to spend these winter days indoors cooking rather than opening a tin of soup. Could we as humans mimic the traits of the animals outside? do we have our own version of hibernating? I am not sure. I just know I feel different this time of year. Happy Holidays

      I too heard that stick to your ribs about thick hearty meals . I have lived in New England my entire life Connecticut then Maine since 1992 I have never been outside of this area Even though winters Canberra long I live the change of seasons

    I'm glad to see the pups in their cozy sweaters. They feel the cold the same as we do so in their own way I'm sure they are grateful for the extra warmth. I always look forward to your videos. They are very soothing and help me slow down and feel less stressed. Thank you and many blessings to you and your little family on the mountain.

    I love winter. Fall is first, then winter. I love summer for all the gardens and flowers. Just don't love the heat and humidity where I live. Lol. I love the coziness and the opportunity to be creative. I don't watch TV nor do I have cable. I try to learn and be creative. I thank God for all the things my mom taught my sisters and I. Love your videos. Thank you so much!
