On the night of November 27, the Frost Moon rises — the first full moon of the winter season.
It shines with an icy brilliance, casting silver light across frozen forests, quiet lakes, and fields touched by early frost.
The night sky feels colder, clearer, almost sharper… as if winter itself is breathing in for the first time.
For centuries, the Frost Moon marked the arrival of long nights and still landscapes, a reminder that nature is slowing down to rest.
Tonight, its cold glow turns even the simplest scenes into something magical — shadows stretching across snow, pine trees shimmering with frost, distant stars glittering like frozen sparks.
If the sky is clear, step outside and look up.
Let the light of the Frost Moon settle into the silence of the season —
a reminder that even in the coldest nights, beauty finds its way back to the sky. ❄️🌕✨

Mark your calendars❄️ December 21: Winter Solstice ❄️
It’s the shortest day and the longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere! This moment happens when the Earth tilts farthest away from the Sun, giving us the Sun’s lowest path across the sky.
🌍 What this means:
• Sunrise comes later and sunset arrives earlier.
• Shadows grow longer than on any other day.
• Nights feel deeper, colder, and perfect for stargazing.
• And from here… the light slowly begins to return. ☀️✨

This is an excerpt from Mary Oliver's poem "When Death Comes." I've spent much of this year thinking about what makes life meaningful; about how to avoid "simply having visited this world."
For me, one of the most powerful portals to the answer is the question:
"Imagine you're on your deathbed, taking stock of your life. What would your life need to have included in order for you to look back, sigh happily, and believe you'd lived the most meaningful life you could?"
For me, the answer revolves around loving deeply; using my skills to help others feel fundamentally seen, heard, safe; experiencing the beauty of music and the earth; and always heeding the call of my inside voice, even when it scares me.
Cultural scripts and definitions of "happiness" often push us into ways of living that don't actually align with deep meaning. Success-chasing, over-working, waiting to "arrive" at some distant, happy future instead of being fully here for now.
Losing loved ones—and realizing that "I don't want to end up simply having visited this world"—was the motivation that finally encouraged me to dig deeper. To realize I was willing to forego the trappings of "conventional success" if it meant being here for what really mattered.
Is this you, too? Check out my Hustle to Heart Bookclub at haileymagee.com/bookclub. We're a small, 20-member community of high achievers daring to redefine success, and we're enrolling for January 2026. We'd love to have you with us.

At the Hummingbird Clinic we are passionate about children's health. They are our future. Shonishin therapy enables you as a parent to enhance the health and vitality of your child. The Japanese believe that EVERY child is born with a constitutional weakness. However, in my search and quest for the TRUTH of who we are I’ve discovered for myself that EVERY BODY on the planet has the potential for HEALTH and WELL BEING.
Amanda Thomas is an acupuncturist. She trained at the London College of Traditional in North London. She decided at the end of there training that she would love mostly to work with women as from an Inside Out perspective, women’s bodies are ‘seemingly more complicated.’ She basically LOVES a challenge, the more ‘difficult cases’ the BETTER.
She also trained with Stephen Birch in a Japanese therapy called SHONISHIN. He is the Master of working with babies and children. Watching him work was like watching the ‘baby whisperer.’
From her own exploration and experience of working with 100’s of babies, children, women and occasionally men she has come to the conclusion that EVERBODY wants the same THING. There is NO Thing as such ... you can’t capture the spirit. All she KNOWS is that she ‘does her bit.’ She has welcomed many women into the clinic who have looked for her ‘expertise’ to assist them with their ‘gynaecological issues.’ Any THING from PMS to regulating the menstrual cycle, migraines, depression, anxiety, panic attacks .... she has been an ‘avid learner,’ suffered much grief in her won life. She Under stands about ‘ADDICTION’ which covers ANY THING from Be ing Over weight, Be ing a smoker, taking drugs ....There is NO THING ...
She is a gentle Soul, who loves nothing more than hanging out in the sunshine, travelling around and just observing who shows up in her world. She has an 11 year old, beautiful daughter. What a gift!
She Sees herself as an AGENT for change, with Nothing to Do as such but show up and listen and look at what the body is trying to tell US. She is incredible passionate bout the possibility of Seeing a more peaceful, world full of more light, happy, inspired, creative people. Her gift is to be able to create a space which is loving +kind, where babies, children and adults can come to create change together. What more does the world need from Us Right Now?
She is an artist at Heart. Loves Nothing More than a good cup of coffee and the art of good company and conversation.
