Publisher's Synopsis
72 Seasons of Mindful Play, The Timeless Planner, is your weekly planner to include gentle curiosity and connection with nature and cycles in your day, week, year, every year. This is a unique planner that cycles with life, not time. We begin where we are. If we pause, that's fine, we begin again. It is based on the historic Japanese 72 micro-seasons that rotate every 5 days. It is not based on days of the week. The dates are simply the dates, not tied to days of the week. Through haiku, reflective prompts, nature, observations, and the lead of the historic 72 Seasons, an opportunity unfolds within to connect with your inner and outer environments in ways that companion time, breaking time in the sense that we feel pushed and pulled by it, and then learning how we are instead among it through the cycles we witness and relate to in the patterns and randomness of nature. The invitation Birdi Sinclair and Beth Blakesley offer is to create a shift by saying YES. Curiosity and exploration become the guide in a year of simplicity, questioning, and inter-being. Living into a choice to plan being-ness. They were inspired to create this planner after designing an ongoing, year-long course of writing and art that expands on these very topics. "YES. We invite you, simply because you want to." xo Birdi and Beth
