A New Year of First Sip

Hello, my friends -

I'm writing with warm wishes for a happy new year and deep thanks for your ongoing participation in Fist Sip.

Sharing the world's great insights and inspiration is one of my favorite ways of reaching out into the wider world. What began years ago as a small project has become a beautiful web of connection among my family and friends, your family and friends, and beyond. I love imagining so many of us contemplating the same words and images each day.

First Sip continues full-steam ahead in 2023, with offerings shared each weekday morning. I continue to offer email delivery of the posts, with a new (and hopefully reliable) delivery service. If you ever have trouble receiving the daily emails, feel free to reach out to me at info@claudiacummins.com. And if you have friends who would like to join us, they can sign up using this link.

If you receive the posts by email, I hope you'll visit the First Sip website to explore all of the offerings that have been shared since the site was created in 2009. You can search the posts by word, author or image, and you can also learn more about some favorite poets and poetry resources.

In addition to curating First Sip, I have been studying, teaching and writing about wisdom and wellbeing for more than three decades. These offerings are shared on my home website ClaudiaCummins.com. I also share gentle guided audio  practices, along with weekly written reflections, via the site At Home in the World. All are welcome to join us!

Thank you so very much for being a part of the First Sip adventure. I so appreciate your participation and your interest in cultivating wisdom, beauty and light in the world.

In gratitude,

Claudia Cummins
