Rose Quartz Boutique : The Sensual Hibernation: Writing The Next Chapter of Your Life, with Photography by Emily Imani

Peace and Blessings From Rose Quartz

Thank you for joining me in celebrating winter with uplifting words,

soft &warm fashion and a few nature pictures. Life is not the sort of novel that should lose your attention. So take a moment to curl up with a tea or a hot toddy, roll up or unwrap a lollipop .
Let's Tune into the next chapter of your life... what will you write ?

We are each the author of our stories yet only God knows where some of those plot twists come from. Sometimes fear of the unknown can cause us to stay stuck repeating the same scene over and over again. Is it really getting more fun ?

Make sure your story keeps you intrigued. The pen is in your hand.

For me keeping things soft, sensual and sort of silly while being deadly serious in an ALL CAPS kind of way WHEN I FEEL LIKE IT makes me passionate about my life story. Yes I get bored, depressed and have whole days that I sort of "rest". Yet those days are definitely not the overall theme. How is your life story unfolding? This years winter wonderland could heat up with new characters, old flames and a little mystery.....

We can also choose how we handle our winter moods. There are too many horrors of war taking place in the world. We must express and activate our intention for a better world. Being downtrodden is the same as defeat. So let's uplift the best we can and stay true to our work while on earth. Some will not understand how you go about your mission..and who cares. God gave it to you to "work it" for a reason and not just for a season.

I made the choice this year to keep my summer self alive by harnessing the energy of my free spirit, which is often is shivering in the winter and nurturing her playful vibration. This includes plenty of time outdoors, eating healthy food, mostly fruit and NOT falling into the habit of dressing in a way that depresses me. I live in one of the worlds rainiest cities so it is very easy to dress like a lumber jack or a construction worker in muddy rain gear and feel like a bag lady stomping around in mushy boots .

What makes winter cozy for you ? For some it's family time, and crock pot meals, while for others it may be taking a class, or having time for an indoor hobby. Maybe it's great co-workers and potlucks or relishing a bit of solitude at a rainy bus stop. A night of conversation in an almost empty bar with a relative can build family bonds that last all year. Alot of things are more cozy in the wet coldness of winter. Warmth is rare, enticing and valuable. As you watch your breath expelled into the cold morning air you will witness the magic of being alive.

Winter can come crashing down on some of us with the blues, snowstorms, loss of power and not enough daylight. We have to enhance our experiences by choice and effort.

The darkest days of the year are also the shortest
Fear not the change in moods... Find creative ways to be your self under all those layers of clothing. PUT YOUR FEELINGS AND DREAMS IN ALL CAPS as you write the next chapter in your life.

Thanks for joining me on this winter journey..global warming and all. So what is with all these pictures of me in the animal print dress?

Well it's a FLEECE LINED leopard print dress I got in Portland last year .

What you wear is just another way to make winter a jump out of the box time of the year. Hold your loved ones close and never fear freeing yourself...because when it's too late you will wonder why you held yourself back from the world.
