A little story behind the mug...
One spring day, Julep the Cat stopped to smell the lily of the valley in our garden. It was such a tender, curious moment that it stayed with me—and eventually made its way onto a mug.

This design is for anyone who forgets to pause. For the tea drinkers and cat lovers. For the dreamers who find peace in small things.

☕ Stop to Smell the Flowers is now available on Etsy in the Julep the Cat Collection. Printed locally, made with love, and perfect for gifting.

🌿 Take a breath. Sip something warm. And remember—you’re allowed to slow down.

🌸 Trille rose en ville
Saviez-vous que les trilles blancs deviennent rosés en vieillissant?

Ce magnifique spécimen a été photographié à Montréal, dans un petit coin de nature paisible. Si vous revenez régulièrement, vous pouvez observer cette transformation délicate : une fleur blanche éclatante qui prend des teintes rosées, presque comme un coucher de soleil en pétales.

C’est un rappel doux et simple que la nature évolue tout autour de nous, même en milieu urbain. Il suffit de ralentir, de regarder… et d’honorer les cycles qui nous entourent.

✨ Un moment de beauté, un souffle pour l’âme.

📍 Montréal forest moment
This white trillium stopped me in my tracks.
A quiet presence… like a mirror.

✨ When I know myself, I am rooted.
When I love myself, I bloom.

Being in nature reminds me that I don’t have to try so hard.
That softness is a strength.
That listening inward is enough.

Studies show that time in nature activates the parasympathetic nervous system—calming the mind, regulating emotions, and bringing us back to ourselves. 🌱💚

Profite du soleil… comme Julep.
💛☀️

Dans un monde qui bouge trop vite, notre chère Julep nous rappelle qu’on a le droit de ralentir.
Elle s’est installée dans une flaque de lumière dorée, le cœur tranquille, les yeux mi-clos, le museau dans la brise.

Un petit moment parfait.
Un rappel tout doux que savourer la chaleur du soleil est aussi une forme de guérison.

✨ Que ce soit une pause café au jardin ou une sieste sur une couverture, offre-toi un moment de pur contentement aujourd’hui.

Elles sont toutes petites, silencieuses, presque timides…

Les fleurs de fraisier sauvage n’ont rien à prouver. Et pourtant, elles portent une tendresse, une promesse, une force tranquille.
Comme vous.

Même dans vos moments les plus discrets, quelque chose en vous pousse, fleurit, se prépare à porter fruit. 🌱

✨ Woodland Wonder: Bellwort (Uvularia grandiflora) ✨

With its soft yellow, bell-shaped flowers and elegant, stem-pierced leaves, Bellwort is one of spring’s gentle surprises. Found in moist, rich woodlands, this native plant invites us to slow down and look closely.

🌿 A sign of healthy forest soil
🌼 Perfoliate leaves (yes, the stem goes through the leaf!)
🧚‍♀️ Beloved in folklore—some say this is where the fairies dance...

Let your imagination wander. This too is nature connection.

🌼 What if beauty could interrupt your thoughts? 🌼

When I spotted this daffodil—glowing, unapologetically bright—I stopped.
Not because I planned to. But because something inside me shifted.

We think tens of thousands of thoughts a day. Many of them repetitive. Many, quietly critical.
But moments like this remind us: we are not our thoughts.

Nature invites us back to presence, again and again.
To beauty.
To breath.
To being.

This is the heart of nature connection. And it’s available to you—right now, wherever you are.

What if a dandelion could be your guide?

At first glance, it’s just a w**d. But when you take a closer look, dandelions are quietly radical. They grow in overlooked places, shine without asking permission, and trust the wind to carry their dreams. 🌬

Here are 7 lessons they’ve been teaching me lately—about resilience, joy, and staying grounded in uncertain times:

Grow where you are
Be misunderstood and keep blooming
Know your worth
Stay rooted
Shine with joy
Trust the wind
Remember—you’re not alone
These aren’t just pretty ideas. They’re nature’s invitations to live more fully.

💙 Blue pollen baskets, brimming with life—and wonder.

This honeybee gathers from Scilla (Siberian squill), one of the few spring blooms that gifts bees with blue pollen. A rare sight, but a vital one.

Pollinators like this honeybee nourish us, sustain ecosystems, and color the world with spring’s palette. But how often do we pause to notice?

This moment—a bee cradling blue pollen—reminds us how delicate and extraordinary this balance truly is. If the bees vanish, what else might fade with them?

What’s one small thing you can do today to support them—and the web of life we all share? 🌍💛

What if the Universe isn’t working against you, but blooming for you? 🌸💫

Every petal, every breeze, every golden sunbeam is a quiet whisper of love, guiding you toward exactly where you’re meant to be. This is pronoia—the belief that life is conspiring in your favor, even in ways you can’t yet see.

So take a breath. Look around. Let the world remind you that you are deeply supported. 🌿✨

🌿 In Giving, We Receive 🌿

A tiny chickadee, a single seed, a simple exchange—yet within it lies a profound truth. Nature’s kindness is a circle. When we offer care, respect, and nourishment to the world around us, it gives back in ways both seen and unseen.

Robin Wall Kimmerer expresses this beautifully:

"The moral covenant of reciprocity calls us to honor our responsibilities for all we have been given, for all that we have taken. It is our turn now, long overdue, to give gifts to the world that has sustained us."

As we feed the birds, tend the earth, and cherish the beauty around us, we are part of this great cycle of giving and receiving. How do you give back to nature? 💚🌎
