NURTURING YOURSELF
November 6, 2025
In my part of the world it is suddenly getting colder and darker.
The leaves are falling from the trees. The rain is more frequent, and the skies are grey.
It’s not everyone’s idea of bliss!
I was listening to the radio earlier today and it seems that’ ‘book nooks’ are the new craze. So much so, that some UK based schools are incorporating bean bags and soft furnishings into their school libraries to create a nurturing atmosphere in which to enjoy reading – whether it be a novel, non fiction, poetry, magazine, graphic comic or picture book. I loved that idea. Reading sitting upright on a plastic chair at your desk just doesn’t seem appealing. Whereas snuggling down on to a comfy sofa, wrapped in a blanket – now you’re talking!
So, with that in mind our next Coffee and Conversation concentrates on the nurturing aspect of our lives.
We are asking: “How do you aim to nurture yourself”. We are hoping to create an opening for discussion regarding nurturing in all areas of life.
For instance, you can wrap yourself up in warm clothing, which I ABSOLUTELY LOVE, but does it nurture YOU?
You can choose to eat something but does it nurture you?
You can be involved in a friendship, but does it nurture you?
And if it does, how so?
Autumn dictates softness, yielding, appreciating and warmth. How are those factors playing a part in your nurturing?
Our conversation will be held this Wednesday at 5pm GMT (UK) 12 noon Eastern. It is totally FREE. Not recorded, so you need to attend live. You can participate as much or as little as you choose. This is a nurturing environment, so there is no pressure. if you want to just listen, you can.
You will need to pre-register by clicking on this link.

We look forward to having you with us.
Sue, Ellen, Clarisse, Geraldine, Kerry.
