Why do we wait til everything feels like rock bottom before we do the things that help?
Walk in Nature
Journal
Draw a little buttercup in the margin
Eat the first 2 ripe raspberries in the garden

Nature is my solace but to be completely real, it often feels out of my reach. When I'm in full-blown anxiety spirals, I often can't leave the house and it's a struggle to walk into my own back garden.
It also often doesn't feel like enough. A walk won't cut it. I feel silly for talking to a tree. Or I do those practices, then come right back home to spiral again.
It's ok.
It doesn't feel OK, but I know it is.

Mallow 💜🌸🍀
One of the plants that's really singing right now here in Berwick-Upon-Tweed! The flowers and leaves are edible - you can pick the petals to garnish your food and fry the leaves for crisps, or use them like little wraps. Look at the way she graces the 'waste' ground areas!
I talked about my view on waste ground in my latest membership post. It could be a post in itself! Land that culture considers 'waste' or 'unused' is really home to many wonderful plants and creatures.
Have you seen Mallow about?

I'm really pleased to announce that I'm running a day workshop on Colour from Nature! 🌿🌻🎨 In Berwick-Upon-Tweed on July 7th I will be leading an engaging and enlightening programme introducing you to making paints, inks and pigments from plants and rocks. We will create some natural art materials, craft colour palettes and get creative. This is a pilot workshop made possible by the Creative Action Fund from and and is FREE to attend, but you must book your place by getting in touch with me. There are just 10 spaces, so email me on woodland-jo@outlook.com

I would love to have you there! This is the culmination of a 9-month project where I have been developing my creative practice and skills, and your participation and feedback will be invaluable to me! Please share if there is anyone you think would be interested. No need to 'be an artist' or have your own creative practice, though this would be a lovely opportunity for current artists to expand their processes into more environmentally-aware areas, and a way for everyone to connect more deeply with the Earth and this landscape.

Small Summer rituals are holding me right now, through a challenging time of deep inner work and transformation. Picking Elderflowers to infuse in my water jug, swimming in the sea with my friends, mindfully watering the cucumbers and Tulsi in my polytunnel in the evenings, picking edible flowers to put on my meals with gratitude and love.
Little actions like these, gifted from this season by the Mother, to us at just the right time. Reminding me to see the goodness in life, smell the goodness, taste the goodness, feel the goodness. It is not easy to practice gratitude when you are so aware of what you want to change, it is not easy to slow down and stay present when you're in pain and want to distract. But I'm noticing more and more the opportunities the Earth offers us to be present, grateful, and feel joy and awe.

Absolutely LIT UP by this abundant Midsummer bouquet I picked from my allotment tonight (plus some Mugwort from the Golf Course). Today everything flowed, it was magical 🌊🌸
I had a lot of curveballs today, but I met them all with presence ad checking in with my centre 🙏 and I feel this was my reward!
I'm gathering for the Solstice tomorrow with some beautiful women, and this bouquet will come with me. THANKYOU Land, thankyou Mother, thankyou life.
I wrote a post about Mugwort today and I can't wait to share it with my Wild Revival membership. If you'd like to learn all about Mugwort this month then head to the link in my bio to join the membership 🌿🔥
Can you spot the Mugwort in my final slide?

Sweet, heady Honeysuckle. Blooming in the hedges and forests now, and the delight of my youngest boy, pulling the flowers and sipping the nectar together. Should I write a post on Honeysuckle? Did you know it is edible and medicinal?

There's some words forming in the background//
A dialogue between who I was and who I am becoming//
In the zero-point-space//
Re-gathering parts of me//
And folding in//
And folding in

I witness the conversation between breaths//
Listening is more than acceptance//
The words in the silence//
The formless ideas take shape//
Remembering//
