HEAT

"Yes, let us love winter..."
~ Pietro Aretino ~

Sitting in front of a hearth fire heals me, as does sitting in the sun on a cold day. There is something more than temperature that penetrates the skin- a sense of cleansing, and wellness, and comfort, and plenty. Fires in the summer have a different kind of healing power. Winter fires are medicine for bitter cold and the soul.

I sit in front of the fire and heal.
