It's spring time! How beautiful are the flowers popping up all over town! Spring is one of my favourite seasons. The inward / hibernation energy of winter slowly strips away to unveal the social butterfly patiently waiting inside. And with the Spring Eqquinox, we are offered a moment to acknowledge what has become out of balance in the winter months, and given warm energy to implement positive changes into our daily lives.  Living in Victoria, seasonality is something we all adore. Through watching nature, we can observe the similarities in ourselves. Although some days are still saturated by fog and rain - warmer weather is on the horizon. The light of new life is nearly in our grasp as new buds appear on trees. We must honour this transition period, for both our internal and external environments.  

Mahmood started his Spring adventure at the Shizuka Ryokan in Hepburn Springs with Catherine - what a beautiful scene to re-ermge in! He then visited Katherine, and was amazed by her craft of jewellery making. Not too far down the road, Mahmood met Lou at Woodend General Store, a new space filled with an abundance of goodies! Lastly, he spoke with Daniele from Meraki Organics

Larissa stopped for a bite to eat at Matthew's Fika Brewers in the heart of Ballarat.

Whilst, Michael visited Zoe at Spiced Chai for a delicious belly warming brew! 

With the (hopeful) sun on your skin, and this magazine in your hands, it's time to see what spring is offering!
