RWD29 - Winter 2022-23 Inspire(d) w/ Aryn Henning Nichols

"Winter 2022-2023" Inspire(d) - Cover Art by Diane Knight of Whalan, MN.

Aryn Henning Nichols and host Benji Nichols run down the "Winter 2022-2023" issue of Inspire(d) Magazine on this episode of "Rhymes With Decorah". Join us for a fun half hour highlighting the articles that are keeping us inspired this winter, as well as a few other sidetracks along the way!

From Aryn's Editor's Letter in the "Winter" issue:

"Lagom. It’s a Swedish word meaning “just the right amount.” “Not too much, not too little.” “Just enough.” The Swedish proverb “Lagom är bäst” literally means “the right amount is best,” and is also translated as “enough is as good as a feast.” Enough is as good as a feast! Leave it to the Scandinavians to have just the right phrase to encompass my feelings for this winter.
In a time and world where the mantra is so often more, more, more, I encourage you, this season, to say, “Better, not more.” Make choices that count – shop local, show up for your community, be present with your loved ones. Define what’s enough for you.
A lot about defining enough is being creative with your resources."
