For me it&#8217;s a time to become still and to reflect. It&#8217;s about tuning into our selves and feeling deep inside&#8230;\u00a0 A year is about to come to an end, a new one about to start. With it there are so many new opportunities coming up, it&#8217;s exciting to change, to adjust and ammend, to re-think and re-direct, to set-off to completely new tracks and leave others that haven&#8217;t really made us happy behind in the past.\u00a0 Change can be scary in a way. It&#8217;s so much easier and less risky to just go with the flow, even if it&#8217;s not quite right for us, isn&#8217;t it?
