Nurture yourself through all seasons
This ongoing year-long journey will guide us intentionally and gently with the seasons. We will nurture slowness together, grounding our growth and evolution in cyclical rituals that follow the sun and the changes of our earth.
We will meet every 6 weeks, coinciding with the seasonal festivals, or sabbats, of the year. These festivals are made up of the solar events of the year, the solstices and equinoxes, and the half-way points between. They mark the beginning of our seasons and the halfway marks of each season, offering a perfect rhythm for checking in with ourselves.
Each session will consist of a seasonal ritual, intention setting, gentle yoga and breathing, guided meditation, guided journaling, and a final integration. These will be deeply personal sessions, with cameras and microphones off so that you can attune to and care for yourself throughout the 2 hours of guided practice.
Together we will start to build sacred practices of our own - nurturing our internal growth, and exploring a deeper connection with ourselves that comes from moving with our natural world.
up next... Mabon, the Fall Equinox
Samhain is upon us.
At this threshold into the darker season, we celebrate the harvests we’ve reaped and prepare for the quiet, cold months ahead. Traditionally, this was the time to bring in the final harvests, plant the seeds that need planting, put our gardens to bed, move animals to shelter, and store food for the long winter. Animals prepare their dens, trees release their leaves, plants dry out and scatter their seeds to the wind. All beings—flora and fauna—prepare for the season ahead.
While our modern world can make it harder to feel these shifts, our bones still know. When we tune in, we sense this natural pull inward.
This is the Celtic festival of Samhain, a cross-quarter day marking the halfway point between the Autumn Equinox and the Winter Solstice. It was considered the Celtic New Year, the turning from the light half of the year to the dark. The Celts—and many other cultures—believed this was a liminal time, when the veil between worlds grows thin and the spirit realm feels closer.
Across cultures and continents—through Día de los Muertos, All Saints’ Day, Dziady, All Hallows’ Eve, and more—this thinness has been honored and felt. As the natural world shows us the cycles of life and death, we, too, can turn inward and reflect on our own.
This can be a tender season as the earth enters a time of death and decay. The days shorten, the light fades. But this process feeds life itself—the time of stillness nourishes the soil, creating the rich ground from which spring growth will rise.

an invitation from our earth...
If you have been feeling a longing for slowness, wanting to find more intentional ways to connect with yourself, with our earth, if you have felt distant from yourself, or disconnected from the earth, if you have been wanting to establish rituals, a journaling practice, a meditation practice, if you just feel lost and like you need to grasp on to something, anything, let this be an invitation....
Or maybe you already have a strong connection with yourself, have your own established practices and rituals, know how to connect with the earth, how to tap into your innate self. If all that is true, I am guessing you still feel a deeper call, a nudge, like me, to keep reaching, keep learning, keep grounding, keep becoming.
Wherever you are at in your journey, this is for you. This practice of grounding is for all of us. Because as the earth teaches us, we will continue to begin. We evolve, yes, over time, but we ground ourselves in the seasonality of life, we are offered, time and time again, to begin again.
So wherever you are coming from, wherever you are at, let's step into this journey together and see where it can lead us, see what the earth has in store to teach us.
a quiet calling...
As I’ve moved through a very transitional year for myself, I’ve continued to come back to these sabbats, these markers of time passing. And while they show the time is passing, the earth shifting and changing, they are also steadfast, constant. They continue to return to us, or we to them, season after season, year after year. They offer us a return - to ourselves, to the earth - a moment to let go of the constant push toward progress and a breath to see the beauty of an ever-changing landscape. From each blade of grass, to the birds in our trees, to the leaves at the end of the branches. The frost that blankets the earth, the flowers that begin to peak as the sun fills our sky... longer and longer and longer, then less and less and less. In Midwinter we feel hope and security in the promise of the return of light, and in the heat of summer a longing for the slowness and retreat that is promised to come as that light fades again. Promised change, steadfast patterns. We have so much to learn from our natural world.
My own journey of discovery of these markers of time, of living and breathing with the seasons, has ebbed and flowed, yet I’ve continued to find solace and peace in the practice of following. And in this following, I’ve found that the earth and its cycles has so much to reveal to us, if we let it, if we slow down enought to see and listen. Through this practice of seasonality, of slowing down, grounding down, and flowing with and through the earth, we can find a more natural way of living, a simpler, humbler, truer way of being, a way of being that is with and of nature. We are nature. We’ve busied our little selves, created distractions, pretend we are not, forgotten what our ancestors knew to be true, but we are of nature. And when we slow down, ground down, get gentle with ourselves and send our roots down into the earth again, when we let nature show us how to change, how of balance, we can find a deeper peace and truth to our own sense of belonging in this place.
I have held my practices of moving and living with the sabbats close over the years, never really sharing them, but I have been feeling the urge to reach out and offer my hand so that we may walk together. I’m hearing from all over that a heavy sadness has been sinking in - a sadness at our disconnection, a loneliness we have created as a society, a low murmur of anxiety over all our distractions and problems we’ve created for ourselves. And gosh I feel it too. But when I slow down and ebb and flow with the earth, I feel an ease, I sense something deeper and truer that speaks to our existence as human beings. And so in all of this, I’ve felt an urge to reach out, to take a bigger leap and share, facilitate, and reach for more connection with each other and our earth.
