Today is the start of Advent. The Church of England is encouraging people to do advent through a "Ready Steady Slow" site. Seems a bit cheesy to be honest, but also potentially useful. I know at times I do need to slow down as well as have a kick up the arse to be a bit more eco friendly, etc in my practice. At the end of each day is a You Tube clip. Today it's a short one from ++ Rowan which I'm not going to link to because I want to put in two clips.

Firstly, a You Tube clip explaining a bit about the idea is here:

Secondly, for something a bit deeper on advent and what it's all about try a longer clip from Archbishop Rowan Williams and what he said this time last year year.
