“The words we speak become the house we live in.” —

Hafiz

Every sentence we whisper,
every phrase we repeat—
they’re not just sounds.
They’re scaffolding.
They’re shelter. Or storm.

I didn’t know I was shaping my world
with my own voice.
Calling myself behind,
and wonder stayed far.
Naming everything hard,
and so it was.

At first, I thought it was harmless—

And slowly, I learned.
To speak as if love were listening.
To speak as if healing were already happening.
To bless my days with words
that sounded like light.

Now I ask myself,
what kind of home
am I building with my breath?

Because what we say,
we start to believe.
And what we believe,
we begin to become.

So speak gently.
Speak bravely.
Speak as if your soul is listening.

You’re not just talking.
You’re building sanctuary.

Join us this evening for an interesting exploration of the elements from diverse perspectives - around how to live a more elemental life, rooted and in flow. 🔥🌿💧🌤️

What can the vital forces of Earth, Air, Water, and Fire teach us about being human in a more-than-human world? Explore this question and more when Elementals book club returns this Wednesday, May 21st.

The newest five-volume series from Humans & Nature Press, Elementals is a collection of essays, poetry, and stories from over 90 contributors that illuminate the dynamic relationships between people and place, human and nonhuman life, mind and the material world, and the living energies that make all life possible.

Join us this week to hear from contributors to Elementals Vol. 5, An Elemental Life.

🕸️ If the elements are kin to one other, then what does it mean to live in kinship with the elements? This volume brings the elements into confluence with one another, exploring diverse practices of what it means to live elementally.
