Wishing you a peaceful and nourishing fall! 🌇☕🍂

Late October

Carefully
the leaves of autumn
sprinkle down the tinny
sound of little dyings
and skies sated
of ruddy sunsets
of roseate dawns
roil ceaselessly in
cobweb greys and turn
to black
for comfort.

Only lovers
see the fall
a signal end to endings
a gruffish gesture alerting
those who will not be alarmed
that we begin to stop
in order to begin
again.

What are you letting go of that is no longer serving you this fall? What are you making room for that allows your heart more gratitude, more compassion, more joy?
How are you slowing down this season to deepen your capacity for connection, presence and accessing joy in the midst of it all? ❤️❤️❤️

When a toxic person can no longer control you, they will try to control how others see you. This is COWARD behavior. The misinformation will feel unfair, make you angry, but stay above it, it's poison that you want no part of, let them rot in their own venom. Trust that others will see the truth, just like you did. This behavior is a desperate attempt to regain power and influence over someone who has broken free from their manipulation.

Toxic individuals often resort to smear campaigns, spreading false information, or manipulating others' perceptions to discredit their target. This can be a challenging and frustrating experience, especially when it involves people you care about. However, it's essential to maintain your integrity and not engage with the toxic person's tactics.

By staying above the drama and refusing to participate in their game, you're taking away their power. It's crucial to focus on nurturing positive relationships and surrounding yourself with people who support and understand you. Trust that those who matter will see through the toxic person's manipulations and recognize the truth.

It's also important to prioritize self-care and emotional well-being during this time. Surround yourself with positivity, practice self-compassion, and remind yourself of your worth. By doing so, you'll be better equipped to handle the situation and emerge stronger and more resilient. Ultimately, staying calm, confident, and authentic will help you rise above the toxic person's attempts to control your narrative.

🌸✨ 10 Somatic Practices for Everyday Wellness ✨🌸

Luna is a great reminder for us all--taking care of your body and mind doesn’t have to be complicated. Here are 10 simple practices you can sprinkle throughout your day to help your nervous system reset, restore, and glow:

🌬️ 3 Deep Breaths – Inhale through your nose, exhale slowly like you’re blowing out a candle.

🚶‍♀️ Mini Walk Break – Even 5 minutes outside can reset your body and mood.

👐 Butterfly Hug – Cross arms over your chest and tap shoulders gently, alternating sides.

🧘 Grounding Check-In – Place both feet on the floor, notice the weight of your body supported.

🎶 Shake It Out – Play one fun song and let your body move freely.

💧 Sip with Intention – Drink water slowly, notice the sensation of it nourishing you.

🌿 Nature Pause – Step outside, feel the air, notice one tree, cloud, or bird.

✍️ Hand-to-Heart Journaling – Place a hand on your chest, take a breath, write one kind sentence to yourself.

🕯️ Soft Gaze Reset – Instead of staring at screens, rest your eyes on something gentle in the distance.

🤗 Stretch + Yawn – Give yourself permission to release tension with a big stretch (bonus points if you smile!).

💛 Remember: Your body is wise. These micro-practices add up, creating steady wellness in everyday life.
