The Winter Solstice is one of the most powerful pause points of the year. In this episode, I reflect on the solstice as a sandhi, a sacred junction point in the Vedic tradition where one cycle ends and another begins. Whether you are in the Northern or Southern Hemisphere, this moment invites stillness, reflection, and honest self-inquiry.


I share how expansion and contraction show up in nature, in our bodies, and in our lives, and how understanding these rhythms can help you stop forcing change and start aligning with what is naturally unfolding. We explore how dashas reflect long-term phases of inward or outward focus, why chasing goals for future happiness often leads to dissatisfaction, and how cultivating the feeling you desire now can shift everything.


This episode is a gentle invitation to pause the “game,” reassess what is truly working, and reconnect with your deeper sense of purpose as we approach a new year. Perfect listening for solstice week, end-of-year reflection, and anyone feeling the call to slow down and realign.


Key ideas and quotes


• “The solstice is a sandhi, a junction point where the Sun appears to stand still and invites us to pause.”

• “There are times for expansion and times for contraction, and neither is wrong.”

• “The shortest distance between where you are and where you want to be isn’t a line, it’s a point.”
