October 1st is here!

I’m super excited for the changes happening, not only in the weather but also the energy. There’s something really special about October, just after the fall equinox the energy seems to shift and feel welcoming.

I don’t know how this year has been for you but for me - it’s been brutal. There have been so many wonderful changes and also so many emotions. I’ve been anxious, depressed, angry, excited, motivated…just all the feelings.

Not that a new season is going to completely make any emotions shift but the energy around me (us) already feels better, more supportive, open and potent.

My intention for October is to make space - I have a few house projects to work on and I’m excited to decorate + clear out clutter. I’ve packed my summer clothes and put them away. In my recipe queue I have soups and stews. There’s a lot of simplicity to look forward to and having space to enjoy it is my primary goal.

As we go further into October — ask yourself what you need, what you want, and how you can get it.

I’m hoping to continue reading good books and getting even cozier on my couch, with my dog Toro.

Until we chat next take good care of yourself: hydrate, rest, laugh, sex it up, eat well and breathe deeply. I love you.
