Why yes, that is my Christmas tree. 🎄 And yes, it is February 13th. And yes, I chose to dye my hair purple again today instead of tackling the tree…though I did briefly consider it for a solid 37 seconds. Because life is hard, the tree isn’t hurting anyone, and purple hair is fun. 💜

Whatever life currently looks like for you, may you remember to claim pockets of joy wherever and whenever you can. 💜

🌱 Mugwort • Integration
There is a rhythm and balance to all of life, a dance between physical reality and the spiritual world. Mugwort opens and expands your consciousness to embrace all that you are — light and dark, body and spirit — helping you to integrate all aspects of your multidimensional consciousness into your everyday practical life.

“Mugwort wants you to let go of perfectionism and embrace and integrate all aspects of your multidimensional self without labeling and judgment — to leap into the dark, with wild abandon.”

🌱 Lady’s Mantle • Nurturance
Like being held in your mother‘s arms, Lady’s Mantle brings feelings of gentle, reassurance and joyful contentment to your body, mind, and soul, especially during times of upheaval and change. Know that you are loved and fully supported in all ways. You have all the inner resources you need to be happy and whole.

“Lady’s Mantle shares that one of the most powerful, magical, and easily accessible tools of alchemy we all have is simply our imagination. Our imaginations have the power to change our perspectives and, ultimately, our experience of the world in an impressive way.”

From the Soulflower Plant Spirit Oracle by Lisa Estabrook

Some Saturday morning thoughts: yes, it feels like the world as we know it is crumbling. Just when we think we’ve perhaps reached the peak of what is possible, something else gets thrown at us. Many of us feel angry, scared, disillusioned, disgusted. We don’t know what the future may hold for us, our children, our neighbors. It feels like so much is out of our control. And yet…we are still here. Still waking up each morning. Still caring for those entrusted to us. Still giving hugs and washing clothing and ensuring mouths are fed. Still connecting with, and caring for, our friends, our families, our communities.

Years ago, I was working with a practitioner who said something that has stuck with me. She said that in the years to come, division would increase. Some would be pulled towards darkness. It would be our job to hold the light. ✨ And I think that’s what so many of us are doing, even if we don’t always realize it. These daily acts of care, of love, of intention. They matter. They are how we hold the light. We each have the power to decide for ourselves how we show up in the world, and to create the world we want to live in, even if it’s one small piece, one moment, one action at a time.

Just in case you have momentarily forgotten, You Are Magic. And you have the power to change the world. ❤️✨

Hi. ❤️ This morning, I had an oral surgery consultation, which I was admittedly completely anxious about, on top of a whole load of other things currently happening in my pocket of the world, and obviously, in the world at large. But then, the surgeon came in, introduced himself, and informed me that after reviewing my x-rays…I just have a thick chin. We both started laughing. Totally healthy, all is well, just a bit of a thick chin bone. 😅 So much worry and anxiety and spiraling over all of the “what ifs”, and all had been completely unnecessary.

As I drove home, I realized…for all of my talk about noticing good things and creating pockets of joy, I had most definitely slipped back into a place of letting fear drive the bus. Not to say that fear, worry, and anxiety aren’t warranted. They are all important emotions. But sometimes, I sink…into imagining all of the worst case scenarios, into assuming the worst, into an almost constant, panicked state. And I’m quite sure I’m not the only one.

And so, I made a conscious effort. To notice expanses of unmarred snow, the blue of today’s sunny sky, the joyful kindness of a drugstore employee. I remembered a gift card I had in my bag from Christmas, and made a last minute detour to treat myself to a warm, yummy drink and cake pops for my kids — a nod to our once weekly tradition of “Cake Pop Fridays”, during another pocket of time when life felt hard.

I was reminded that caring for ourselves doesn’t have to be big and extravagant. It can be taking a deep breath. Dancing in our kitchen. Playing a silly card game. Reading a good book or watching a feel-good show. All of those things I had listed just a few days ago. How quickly and easily I can forget. But that’s ok. It’s the remembering that matters, and the decision to do what we can, one step at a time, one day at a time.

No matter what darkness may come, there is always light. We just have to remember to look for it.

Sending lots of love out from my corner of the world, to you.

Take care of you. ❤️

Today, while my kids were finishing up sledding with friends at Art Hill (*the* sledding hill in St. Louis), a woman approached me to let me know that there was a bald eagle near the bottom of the hill, and that a woman was down there who observes and studies this particular bird. My kids and I ventured down, and sure enough, perched high in a bare tree, was this beautiful, magical being. Our national bird. A symbol of freedom. And nearby stood the woman who observes her, freely sharing her knowledge and passion.

What a gift, from the woman at the top of the hill and the woman at the bottom.

What a beautiful reminder…that most people are kind and good. That the world really is such a magical place. That we are all so intrinsically connected.

It really felt…like hope. ❤️

✨ A Little Boost ✨

Years ago, early in my motherhood journey, I came across the work of Shawn Fink at a time when I most needed it. Her then program, The Abundant Mama Project, taught me a plethora of useful tools, including various forms of supportive list-making. In this case, I sat down this morning, and quickly wrote down as many things I could think of that give me a little boost — of joy, of peace, of comfort. I wrote it on a magnetic notepad, so I can stick it on my refrigerator (a highly visible place), so when I find myself feeling weighed down, I can quickly skim this list, grab onto whatever catches my eye and is feasible in that moment, and go for it. I can also easily add to it if/when something additional comes to mind, and having this ready-made list takes the thinking out of it, which is immensely helpful in moments when I’m feeling overwhelmed, my nervous system is activated, etc.

Making lists like these (and posting them in visible places within your home) can help make pockets of self-care more easily accessible and attainable, especially in those moments when you really need them. ❤️

Wishing you a bit of lightness, a bit of hope, a bit of comfort, a bit of joy. ❤️✨

The start of 2026 has been rather heavy. Personally, collectively. And yet…there continue to be moments of beauty, pockets of joy, reminders that life contains so much magic and wonder. So much light.

Earlier this week, as I watched my daughters ride, one of the farm dogs running alongside them, other horse friends following along in their pastures, I was reminded... Yes, unexpected things happen that are heartbreaking, traumatic, horrible. But the unexpected can also arrive in ways that are joy-full and life-giving. In bigger ways, like, for example, I had never planned to homeschool. Or to own a horse. And yet, here we were, in the middle of a weekday afternoon. ✨ Sometimes, it is in seemingly smaller moments, like a vibrant sunset, lighting the sky on fire, on your drive home.

Light and dark, death and rebirth, joy and sorrow. They coexist. We try so hard to control…to avoid…to contain… To just live in the light without experiencing the dark. But maybe the key is knowing where to find the light, how to notice it, how to feel it, when darkness falls.

“In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer. And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger — something better, pushing right back.” -Albert Camus

Wishing you gentleness, comfort, and care. ❤️
