Winter Rituals: A Letter to Yourself

There’s a moment in winter—just before the world rushes into celebration—when everything feels still. The trees pause. The light softens. And something inside you whispers: slow down. This is the season of inwardness. Of handwritten thoughts. Of silk ribbons tied around quiet gifts. At Maison Eviève, we believe winter is not just a time to give to others—it’s a time to give to yourself. To receive beauty. To create rituals that feel like letters from your soul.


A Ritual to Begin With

Start with paper. Write a letter to yourself—not a list, not a goal sheet. A letter.

Begin with:

• What you’ve learned this year

• What you long for

• What you’re ready to release

Seal it. Tie it with a ribbon. Place it somewhere sacred.

This is your winter altar.


Surround Yourself with Texture

Let your space reflect your inner season.

Silk scarves draped over books.

Candles flickering beside handwritten notes.

Art prints that feel like memory.

Choose textures that invite touch.

Colors that evoke warmth.

Objects that ask nothing of you but presence.


Receive Something Unexpected

We often forget that receiving is a ritual, too.

Not everything must be chosen.

Some things are meant to find us.

This season, allow yourself to be surprised.

By a letter.

By a story.

By something wrapped in silk and mystery.


Winter is not a season of doing.

It’s a season of remembering.

Of receiving.

Of returning to yourself.
