A beautiful encapsulation of Autumn Lyndsay 🍂 Thank you for taking us on this personal journey with you through the most transformative, and often times tumultuous, of seasons. I can't get over how magical your garden looks dusted in snow ❄️ You've brought back memories of my years in London long ago ☺️

Ah thank you for reading Steph, thinking of you at the other side of the wheel coming into summer! And yes you’re right, autumn is magical in its transformative power. The snow was a huge surprise and a real treat, just a shame it didn’t settle for long! I would love to hear about your London years one day xx

What a beautiful ode to your autumn lovely! It really has been such a deep season for me this year, it’s felt so full in all ways. It was so wonderful to sit with you for the seasonal salon xxxx

Ah thank you dear one. Yes such a full and quite transformative season with the beginning of school for our ‘big’ little girls and ourselves as mothers I feel. Thank you so much for your presence at my first seasonal salon, it was magic to have you there and to witness the beautiful words that emerged! Ps still reeling the synchronistic birthday notebooks! xx

heart-warming glimpses, isn't it helpful to pull out the special moments and memorialise them like this? otherwise they can just slip away and we forget how lucky we are ... thank you Lyndsay xx

Thank you for reading Chloe ❤️ and yes it feels like such a lovely (and necessary) practice to bring all of these little things together into my mind and onto the page. Otherwise yes they disappear into the blur of life. Hope you’ve had a moment to hold your autumn stories too xx

This gave me the perfect last weekend of November, farewell to autumn cozy mood. 🧡 Reading your stories and memories and moments from these last three months were a beautiful collection gathered up to prepare me to move into winter. And I feel so ready now. It has been a lovely, magical, mystical autumn. But I feel very ready to turn inward and head into my wild winter cave now.

Thank you, Lyndsay, for giving me this space and this time to reflect on how I want to close out my autumnal season this weekend. And I feel the silent, still shift into December slowly settling in. Love to you. xx

So happy to hear this Liz, thank you for reading and being here. It feels like a really lovely practice to end the season before the new one is upon us! I’m glad reading gave you an opportunity to reflect on your own autumn and feel ready for the next layer of deepening into winter.

In some ways it feels unreal that December is here but also feeling ready to soak it in day by day if I can. Much love to you xx

As I read this I feel like I’ve slipped into Brambly hedge! This time of year for me is the wet season build up where everything is unbearable hot and heavy. I don’t cope that well this time of year, so I’m imagining I’m drinking mulled wine in the cold!

Oh and happy birthday! I just turned 38, and feeling much like you, a returning to my truest self, it’s a lovely feeling.

Ah happy birthday to you too! Yes late 30s definitely feels like a threshold and a bringing of everything together all at once xx

Ah ha! Actually just bought all the Brambly Hedge seasons books second hand and hope to read them with the kiddos soon!

Oh woah such a contrast to be in the midst of wet/hot season. Sounds full on. Challenging with little ones I’m sure.

So glad you could be transported to chilly days and mulled wine! You would be very welcome xx
