Wintering is a slow, steady, deeply supportive experience designed to guide you through the darkest weeks of the year with softness, connection, and emotional ease.

 

It’s not a resolution program. It’s not another productivity push. It’s not a reinvention season. It’s companionship. It’s rhythm. It’s a hand on your back saying, “You’re not going through this alone.”

 

Together, we’ll explore the literal and metaphorical winters of our lives, the slow seasons of change, illness, loss, and transformation; and discover how they can become places of healing instead of hiding.

 

Through gentle weekly batched prompts, excerpts from Wintering by Katherine May, and bi-weekly live Bonfire Circles, you’ll be guided to embrace your own fallow season as a sacred part of growth.

 

What’s Included

 

45 Reflective Prompts

Delivered weekly in bundles of five.
A gentle rhythm that matches the pace of winter — one prompt per weekday, no pressure, no rules.

 

Bi-Weekly Wintering Circles

Warm, quiet, supportive gatherings every other week.
Come live or watch the replay.
Think: soft conversation, reflection, connection, and emotional warmth.

“How to Winter” Guide

A cozy guide to moving slowly, tending your nervous system, and finding meaning in the quiet.

 

Optional Book Pairing

If you’d like to deepen the season, you’re welcome to read Wintering by Katherine May (self-purchased). Ashleigh will include suggested chapters in each weekly prompt email and we will discuss it, along with our journaling, at the virtual meet-ups.
