Catherine calls autumn “a season of reflection”

The Princess of Wales has released a video sharing her thoughts on autumn as “a season of reflection.”

In a video posted to the Kensington Palace social media channels, Catherine is seen with children around a campfire and engaging with them on what appears to be a camping trip.

“As the days grow shorter and the shadows grow longer, the energy of summer withdraws into autumn. This is a season for reflection and refinement,” Catherine says in a voice-over at the beginning of the short video.

“Mother nature teaches us there is beauty to be found in change,” the Princess of Wales says, before later closing with, “Let love be the root that holds us, the light that guides us, with hope, through change, endure.”

The Princess also wrote a personal message on social media, “Autumn – a season of reflection, growth and deeper connection. Embrace the beauty found in change, as we prepare for winter’s rest.”

The video was filmed by Will Warr, who was also behind the Spring and Summer editions of her Mother Nature series.
