Often during the winter months, we need something calming and restorative. A really lovely winter meditation is just to light a candle, and for the first few moments, just focus on calming your breath and watching the candle flame as it flickers.
Once you feel you have settled into a relaxed pattern of breathing, just focus on following a pattern, where you say (either out loud or silently) the word "breathe", then take a long, relaxed breath in, then as you breathe out, say the word "calm". If you're saying this out loud, try and use the full extent of your out breath to really elongate the word "calm", for a relaxing & restorative session, whilst watching the candle flame (but do have the candle far enough away so that you don't extinguish it with your lovely long out breath!)
