Taking the lead of #monasticmaumoses for the importance of rest, I opened the #hammock season yesterday!
Soon to be two years into my journey of playing with #humandesign I have learnt that it truly is so that I get much more done, the more I #rest #rejuvenate and #recharge my batteries on a very continuous basis! This is also why moving to the island has been the best choice EVER! in the #silence and #stillness I am remade.#catsofmastodon

Happiness is your own red dirt rock road! #ÅlandIslands #archipelago #living
Me and #monasticmaumoses went to investigate, as the latter part should be finalised later today… Sillily JOYous! #tearsofbeauty #catsofmastodon

First #caturday excursion of this year! #monasticmaumoses and the rest of us got to explore new vistas from and of our #home Spring feels closer even in the midst of all the greyness. #archipelago #living #ÅlandIslands #catsofmastodon

#caturday on a Friday!
#monasticmaumoses and I are enjoying a couple of days off as both the #AcademyOfFinland application was sent in on Wednesday, and #husse is on adventures in the big city. So we get to sleep in, be creative and take naps 🥰
Today, we might even go out! 🤯 as the #snowstorm is finally giving away to some #sunshine

#monasticmaumoses doing his best at showing that he IS keeping me company while preparing Christmas food. He only rests his eyelids a little!
Otherwise trying out new and old patters for the fish, pastries and date cake. #catsofmastodon #egyptianmau

Äntligen tillbaka på ön! Således var det dags att fara på #caturday äventyr med #monasticmaumoses och lägga lucka 22 på plats i #adventskalender2023
Denna gång blev det ingen bortskänkes låda, utan en box fylld med #poetic #oraclecards från #minnatwice och #dakinia
Nu hoppas jag bara att någon hittar fram längs #Trollstigen till vattenhålet och får sin gåva från den heliga källan! #holyspring #catsofmastodon

The basic reason why everyone needs a Cat is this. The following becomes part of ones every interaction with the #felinefellow

”Wonder requires a person not to forget themselves but to feel themselves so acutely that their connectedness to every created thing comes into focus.
In sacred awe, we are a part of the story.”
—Cole Arthur Riley from the #centerforactionandcontemplation newsletter this morning. #catsofmastodon #comtemplative #cat #monasticmaumoses #awe

Fittingly, for Independence Day in Finland one could get a new copy of St. Olof #saint #olof (Åländsk årsbok för kyrka och kultur) and read one of the lovely texts related to #water
At least #monasticmaumoses thought it was a great way to celebrate #sjalvstandighetsdag to go on an #adventure and climb the highest top so that we could see far out to the sea! #ÅlandIslands #archipelago living and #holyWells #catsofmastodon

One thing led to another and all of a sudden, I returned to a video we made with @whitecatmonk many months back in time. #rejuvenation #rest #SundayWalks

This contains not just some beautiful imagery of the area in #auvaisberg #Kaarina where we used to live. It also carries some #wordsofwisdom from #monasticmaumoses and living in #rhythm that I will remember to cherish now when landing in the #archipelago #ÅlandIslands #home
