Wired For Belonging

"As members of a social species, we don't derive strength from our rugged individualism, but rather from our collective ability
to plan, communicate, and work together."
~ Brené Brown, Atlas Of The Heart

Hello, friends!

It's as if Mother Nature decided to deliver on the title of this year's Tulip Time poster. Suddenly, everything is Bursting With Color. Cue the marching bands and pile on those socks underneath your wooden shoes  . . .  spring is here. 🌷

(We can all be thankful I didn't dig up photos from my Dutch Dancing days. Nothing like dressing as a boy while also attempting to have big hair. Gotta love the 80's. 🤣)

The warmer weather certainly has shifted things around here. People are riding their bikes, working in their yards, walking on the beach, firing up the grill, and generally smiling a heck-of-a-lot more. 

Smelling the season's first lilacs is celebratory. Checking in on the "secret" trove of trilliums makes my heart soar. Welcoming neighbors and yogis back to town is a delight, and I am so excited for the return of our outdoor yoga season. 

This boost in energy and mood got me thinking about our need for connection. ​
