Secret Gardens and Palaces

I went to a party recently where we were supposed to bring a gift that represented our favorite thing(s). The gift that I wanted to share was Well-Educated Heart because these resources that Marlene has gathered have greatly blessed my life and I wanted to share that with others. Since it was Christmas time I put together a few extra copies of this gift to give to a few other women in my life. I wish that I could physically send one of these gifts to everyone that desired to receive it but since that isn’t possible, I created a virtual version of sorts to share with all of you and I hope that the experience transfers just enough to convey the message from my heart to yours. I hope you find it to be valuable and that it brings you some joy.

Please note that this gift will take a bit of time to fully open. In order to have the best experience, open it (watch the video) when you are by yourself and have at least 45 minutes of quiet and solitude. Try not to rush. I know that’s not always easy but do your best and I think you will be grateful.

There are some links included in the video description that go along with the physical items that were included with the gift, as well as written transcripts of the words in the video. Don’t look at those until the end of the video. 🙂

Creating this gift for others turned out to be a gift for myself as well. As I put my thoughts and feelings into words and images, I felt so overcome with gratitude for all that I have been given. The other night as I was making dinner (a few weeks after creating this), I put this video on in the background and it again warmed my heart and made me feel so grateful and excited about the beauty that I have all around me.

So with that, here is the gift, from me to you. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
