Hollistic health, centred on inner wellness
A Dara Knot Wellness blog
I always know when summer is gone – the air conditioning vents (something which I never needed in Scotland, because our idea of hot weather is one day, we all get sunburned then wonder where summer went) comes in, and the duvet gets changed from the ultra light one to our more substantial one.

I also see all the possibilities I can grab as the flow of things slow down.
