If you received the Newsletter this month, then you know what we are up to this season. A Christmas List unique to you this month. (If you haven't read it, please email me, and I will send it your way!)

So, as we approach Christmas, here are the Advent Gifts of Love for your Mind, Heart & Body:

Free for you is the Pause App from Wild At Heart: https://www.pauseapp.com/. The app includes meditations for healing, worship, guidance, mental strength, hope, faith, and love. The app is compatible with Apple or Android!

Here, I would like to recommend a book for your heart. It is The Boy, the mole, the fox and the Horse by Charlie Mackesy:

This is truly one of the most touching, truthful, simple, beautiful books I have ever read. You can find it on Amazon or at your local bookseller.

I would like to encourage you to find a quiet evening, light a candle or sit in the glow of your Christmas Tree and open this beautiful and read it to yourself. Ask the Holy Spirit to speak to you through the pages of this precious book.

Finally, there is a beautiful Ayurvedic practice called Abhyanga. (Ayurveda is the sister science to yoga.) Abhyanga is a loving practice of self-massage. Oil, typically tailored to your body type, is used for this practice. Abhyanga's benefits have been studied, and the results are overwhelmingly positive. So the gift for your body is Abhyanga!

May you embrace the Love of God for you, uniquely you, this season and always!

Grace & Shalom,
