Love these films - thank you! I'm hoping to have a merry burn in the shared garden with our neighbors on the 22nd. A touch past the solstice but maybe still within the sun's pause. Best wishes to you and yours for a restful and rejuvenating time this week.

I’m so pleased to have found this! I’ve been buying your almanac for years and follow the monthly Ffern podcast, so these conversational videos are the icing on the cake! You mentioned you might make some of your content paid at some point – please keep it affordable because it brings such light in dark times.
Thank you for this, Lia. I love your natural informal style and you give us much food for thought about this time of year. I have ambivalent feelings about midwinter and Christmas but always get a lift from the fact that the days will be getting longer from now on. Look forward to your talk about Imbolc and in the meantime will go out and buy the 2023 Almanac. Happy midwinter/Christmas
I enjoyed the film so much, so much resonated and reflected how I feel about this time of year. I particularly liked the idea of midwinter as the high point. Sounds like our ancestors at Stonehenge agreed. Just lovely, all of it, thank you.
Thankyou so much Lia. I love all of your contributions to deepen our understanding of the rhythms of the year. I have just watched that with a coffee and a mince pie. I'm in recovery from pneumonia, and your lovely film has lifted my day. X
Lovely words Lia. Couldn’t agree more with what you said about the odd kind of anxiety around midsummer even though it is so light and summery and the relief at midwinter even though it is so dark. Hope you get to cosy down tonight, I’m having a wintry meal with friends and of course lighting many a candle ✨
I love these films, thank you! I agree with other comments on here, your calming voice and the little outtakes make these videos more real! Yuletide greetings to you all x
Great video, Lia! It's really interesting. I totally agree with Tim. As someone who spends all day training people via video, please don't worry about video editing. The internet is full of highly polished videos that are all style and no substance. Your video style, making it homely and real, is part of its charm. You're doing just fine.
Thank you Lia, just perfect. Insightful, digestible, and an excellent reminder to flow with the season. Definitely a time to hunker down and recharge. Adore your fireside films.
Thank you Lia. This is just the reminder I needed right now as I rush to fit everything in during the holiday time. A gentle nudge to slow down, reflect and restore ready for the lighter days to come. I find your almanacs are such a grounding resource for the year ahead, thank you. x
Wonderful film Lia and I actually love the fact it isn't slickly edited, it gives more of the feel of a conversation. Have a wonderful mid-winter.

Such a lovely series of films, Lia. Thank you
Thank you was just the right pitch for me as I slide into the end of year exhausted and wrung-out (again).
