🌿 Have you ever been in love... with a place?

This Summer, as the Fire Element begins to hand itself over to Earth, we’re invited to consider the relationships that sustain us. Not just with people. But with place. With land.
 To love the land is to know it, to attune to its moods and shifts, to care for it like a beloved.
And in doing so — we begin to know and care for ourselves.
 Since moving to Arran, I’ve realised I was falling in love — not just with this island, but with a new way of being in my own body, my own rhythms.
 What is your relationship with the land where you live? Do you feel at home — in your place, in your body?

🌾 Let this season open that door.
 💌 I’ve written a deeply personal reflection & included journaling prompts to explore your own connection to land & self.

My latest Substack is all about the health benefits of camping. From sleep to metabolism and hormone regulation, you might be surprised just how good a few nights under canvas is for you.

And crocs.

I took my dis-ease to a wild place today.

This dis-ease is held in the pit of my stomach, a nausea generated by the consumption of news and inhumanity. Do you know the Stomach digests everything, all that we consume, not just all we eat? And sometimes it doesn’t want to stomach what it sees. I feel that too much these days.

And so as I walked and began to energetically discharge this feeling I felt my Stomach rise up as if to be sick, retching out the horrors of the days, rejecting this reality. Another way to discharge the emotion without swallowing it whole. I did this a lot as a child who lived in the middle of a lot of other people’s big emotions.

I felt myself return.

My eyes look to the ground for the rocks and shells that would offer me comfort in being held.

An egg of a stone, deceptively light and palm-sized. A smooth, speckled pebble, a nippled shell, and stone offering a colour scheme for a room I’d like to live in. The shapes and textures bring me back into my body, into perspective, anchoring me to steady and hold shape, even as the world tries to wear me away.

If you can’t find a wild place, find a stone and let it take your disease from you. I promise it works.

I feel conflicted, posting such ‘silly’ things but I am offering this in case it helps you find some peace, some courage, some light. In a world where technology is trying to tell us it has all the answers, I invite you to remember the plant allies and all they can offer us. The old world crumbles, a new world will emerge and make no mistake there is a war being fought about what will emerge from its ruins. Will love rule, or will fear and hate triumph? We get to choose what we fight for, and stand for. Don’t let them get you down. Shine your inner sun, baby, and make some noise!!!!

🌞 As we approach the Summer Solstice—the peak of yang, the height of light—what within you is ready to be seen? What needs to be offered up for illumination... and transformation?

This season invites truthful expression and loving evolution. But how do we keep our hearts open in a world that feels so heavy?

I’m sharing a simple but powerful practice from The Harmony Principle’s Immerse program: a three-oil, three-point protocol to tend your Fire Element, soothe the Heart, and transmute pain into purposeful action. 💗

Because your light matters. Your love matters. And this world needs both.

✨ Subscribe to my substack for the full practice, going out later today. Link in the bio.

Over on Substack. I’m moving my words off this platform as I don’t want to share my heart with Meta, so if you’re interested there’s a link in the bio and you can subscribe if you’d like to.
