Harp Hygge House

I choose serene. You?

My job bombards my nervous system daily. Everything from the soundscape (alarm beeps, yelling), to unpredictability, to people’s pain and anxiety - stretches my nervous system in a thousand uncomfortable ways. Add daily noise pollution, city life, financial stressors, navigating life and loss – and it’s no wonder we are all stressed to the max. No?

Serenity is on my mind a lot these days.

A couple of years ago almost to the day, I wrote a piece for the Toronto Star about nature, and the health benefits.

https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2021/02/22/ontario-doctors-set-to-turn-over-a-new-leaf-with-program-that-lets-them-prescribe-nature-to-ailing-patients.html #:~:text=Ontario%20doctors%20set%20to%20turn,to%20ailing%20patients%20%7C%20The%20Star&text=Dr.,announcing%20the%20Ontario%20program%20Monday.

I increasingly try to find space in nature and it led us to take the leap and buy a cottage. And we wanted to create “Serene. Sustainable. Cozy” for others to experience as well.

Winter is a special time to get away…the calming blanket of snow, the quiet of trees in hibernation, the crisp air. Carve out your serenity…

Stay at Harp Hygge House for Thanksgiving and peak Fall Colours. Relax on the dock and watch the bright autumn leaves change all around you. Go for a hike, come back to a Thanksgiving dinner (with stuffing, my favourite!), followed by a latte and Pumpkin Pie by the fire. Life is good, with much to be thankful for.
