    Episode 25 : A Soul Nourishing Advent Season

    This episode of The English Homemaker is about the joy, abundance and overwhelm of Christmas for the homemaker. I talk about how I set about creating a really intentional advent season, how I learnt to say 'no', take the pressure off and choose what our family needs. I discuss the slow living Christmas ideas I have already set in motion, how I space and plan everything out and what warm, cosy activities we've got going for December. "May the blessing of light be on you, light without and light within. May the blessed sunshine shine on you and warm your heart till it glows like a great peat fire, so that the stranger may come and warm himself at it, and also a friend."
