Are you struggling with rest in this season?

Winter can feel like a heavy pause—dreary days, long nights, and a quiet stillness that can leave us feeling unsettled. The world around us seems to whisper "keep going, keep producing," even as our hearts and minds feel weary and stretched thin.

But what if winter isn’t something to endure or rush through?

What if, instead, this season is holding a deeper invitation—one that calls you to slow down, exhale, and allow yourself to simply be?

The rhythms of winter offer us a unique gift: the chance to embrace rest without guilt, to find beauty in the stillness, and to uncover a quieter kind of growth. Just as the trees draw energy into their roots and the earth lies fallow in preparation for spring, you, too, are invited to pause—to gather strength, replenish your spirit, and rediscover joy.

In this season, creativity becomes more than just an outlet; it becomes a response. Through slow, intentional acts of making, you can engage your hands and your heart, gently reconnecting to yourself and the world around you.

Winter doesn’t have to feel empty or heavy. It can be a season of peace, renewal, and quiet transformation—if only we lean into its invitation.

Are you ready to let go of striving, embrace rest, and discover the beauty waiting for you in the stillness?

Let this be the season you choose to exhale.

YOUR HOST

Meet Gabi

If you’re anything like me, winter can feel both tender and unsettling—a season that asks us to slow down while quietly surfacing what we’ve been carrying. Over the years, I’ve learned to approach winter not as something to push through, but as a time to listen more closely, breathe more deeply, and make with intention.

Wintering Well: A Creative Response was created as a gentle companion for this season. This on-demand experience offers space to return to whenever needed, guiding you through slow, meaningful creative practices that include mixed media projects and reflective journaling. Each lesson is designed to meet you where you are, allowing you to move at your own pace and revisit the material as often as you like.

This offering is for those who feel weary, reflective, or simply drawn toward a quieter rhythm during the winter months. No artistic experience is required—only a willingness to show up with openness and care.

It would be a privilege to walk alongside you through this wintering season.
