Cultivating Cozy (& Tips for Dealing With the Winter Months)

Hey, y'all! Join me for episode 45 of the Roots and Refuge Podcast. It's official, the frost has come, and the summer is finally gone. For many people, this is a time of year that brings with it seasonal depression. In my life, I've experienced deeper levels of SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder), however, I've found ways to embrace these slower months and cultivate cozy. There's a concept that comes from the Danish culture called Hygge. It's defined as "a quality of coziness and comfortable conviviality that engenders a feeling of contentment or well-being (regarded as a defining characteristic of Danish culture)." In this episode, I'm sharing some of the tips I've used over the years to help cultivate cozy and get through the dark, sunless winter months.
