Owl by Anne Haven 🦉

“In winter, we find her invisible
against the furrows
of cottonwood bark. Her swivel
and lean follow us until
we sit on the old polished log
we call creature. She blinks,
swells her feathers out, shakes and settles.

It’s a good day when I see an owl.
We watch until she drops—a fall
opening to swoop and glide. What is it
with le****ns and owls? Someone
asked. I’ll leave the question
there. There’s a world

the old trees make of water
and air. I like to feel the day
undress its cool oblivion, currents
moving the one mind of leaves,
shadows deeper with the breath
of owls. Just the chance she might
be there watching makes me
love—no—makes me loved.”

We wish you all a wonderful new year following the Solstice full of joy, merriment, and peace.

This holiday season, we wish for everyone to be able to hold onto the light, hope, and joy in the world. Although there may be grief and sadness, we hope the changing season and come of the new year may bring a sense of calm, peace, and gratitude for all that we have. This season, it’s important to take time to rest, recover from the busy year, and enjoy the slowness and calmness of things. We hope you have a wonderful and restful holiday season, from Orkid Toys! ❄️⛄️

is common to experience big emotions around the holidays. Many expect to feel joy, happiness, and love, and while those emotions may come up, it is also common to experience grief, sorrow, anxiety, and even anger. Knowing that these emotions and experiences may come up and being gentle with yourself rather than critical of these emotions is important. Also important is making space to feel these emotions, and space to take care of oneself around the holidays. It may be possible that a daily solo walk, journaling before bed, or practicing a morning mindfulness meditation may allow us to better show up for ourselves and thus, others. The holidays can be a difficult time for many, and letting go of expectation, how we think we’re supposed to feel, or “should” statements (e.g., “It’s the holidays, I should be happy!”), can help us move through the holidays with more ease and kindness towards ourselves. Expectations can add increased pressure, anxiety, and pain, and instead of holding on to expectation we can find joy in noticing the lovely small things we come across and witness. Focusing on these things without attachment can also bring a greater sense of peace around the holidays. ❄️

Meebie recognizes that it is a luxury to have time and comfort to play. Not all children have the space or the safety at home to engage in free play, which is essential to learning, and for some this play may be seen as a gift that they are not always awarded. Many children enjoy school because it provides them with more open time to play, be around other children, and learn in a safe environment. With the cold winter months coming, ensuring the children in your life have time for joy and play is all the more important.

When we feel intense emotions, it is our body’s way of attempting to communicate something to us. Instead of shying away from our intense emotions we can sit with them, notice them, try to anchor ourselves in the present moment, and try to figure out what our emotions are attempting to tell us. Often times, we may be more focused on the past or the future, worrying about things not in the present moment, so if we can ask ourselves “where are we right now” we can figure out what emotions we are really feeling and potentially why to reduce self-criticism over negative emotions.

Sometimes the beginning of fall can bring about feelings of sadness, isolation, and solitude, whereas other times it may bring about a sense of gratitude, calm, and peace. Perhaps you feel these big feelings all at once! 🍂 Whatever feelings you’re having, it is okay to sit with them and accept them as they are, and then let them go if they are not serving you, or lean into them if they bring comfort.

From Ginny: Feeling grief and gratitude. Remembering a very dear person in this world, Carmen Jimenez-Pride. Words are failing, so I’ll just share this: I’m deeply grateful for her presence and thankful for the light that will shine on because of her.
