November: Lighting Your Heart Lamp

Hello and Happy November to you. I hope this finds you well as we begin a new month. I know that yesterday was the first day of the month but I wanted to wait until today to send you this note. I hope you enjoyed a gentle and restorative Sunday as we welcomed November.

Here in the states when November arrives, we start to think about Thanksgiving and gratitude. The theme of grace, gratitude, harvest, and abundance are big themes for this month and even though the holiday itself is celebrated toward the end of the month, these themes are prescient all month long. Maybe you’re already working on a daily gratitude practice or have started to shift your home for the change in the energy that comes in with November. Maybe you’re already planning for your holiday meal or holiday travel. Maybe you’re focusing on something else entirely this season and are trying to find a way to connect with that quiet space within you while also marking this season. In any way that this month is inspiring you to shift into the themes of November, I invite you to take a moment or two to connect with your heart space.

By taking a little time to get quiet, to breathe, and to tune into your own heart space, you’ll find that you can receive a lot of insight from your soul about any particular issue. This is a powerful time to honor this practice. As the days become shorter, darker, and colder in the Northern Hemisphere, it’s a time where we spend more time indoors, focusing on the gentle care of ourselves and our loved ones. We tend to engage in quieter activities, pick up hobbies or artistic outlets that we set down during the summer season, and maybe even enjoy more sleep. There are lots of ways to incorporate the care, comfort, and coziness of the season into your month as we dive deeper into the fall season. As a highly sensitive person, it can be easy to feel a bit overwhelmed about all the things that you want to do and the things that you have to do while finding ways to release the things that aren’t a fit for you this month.

Sometimes, I find that sensitive souls (like yourself) are very clear about how they want to enjoy their season or holiday but they feel that their desires aren’t “enough” to be prioritized. So, they may defer to the party line of doing something because it’s been done a certain way for a long time. Or, maybe they feel like it’s easier to go along to get along. Or, sometimes they feel like if they do something they don’t want to do for a long time, eventually they will be able to choose something that’s important to them and they patiently wait for that elusive day. If any of these resonate with you (or a similar theme) please know that you aren’t alone. However, as a highly sensitive soul, you most likely know exactly what feels right for you, what you want to do, and what that looks, feels, and sounds like. It’s also important to know that no matter what dream you have in your heart for this season or any season, it’s valuable, it’s enough, and worthy of enjoying now. Maybe one of the shifts you can make this month is prioritizing the experiences, values, and themes that are important to you and your vision for your quality of life. You can add seemingly small things to your days throughout the month that will help you to sink into and immerse yourself in the season as well as saying yes to some bigger activities or invitations that resonate for you. It’s not about how big or small the action is that you choose to enjoy, it’s that you choose to invest in the experiences, practices, and quality of life that resonates for you and your soul.

Choose this season as the season that you’ve been waiting for to say yes to the dreams that you hold inside your heart. Choose today to begin enjoying the things that have been quietly on your list of things that are meaningful for you. You don’t need to wait for another year or another month or another season, this is the right time to honor your inner knowing of what is right for you. This is the right time to light your heart lamp and let it lead you to the people, places, and experiences that resonate for you. You are enough and this is the right time to say yes to the calling in your heart.

As always, I’m sending you so much love and support from my teeny tiny corner of the world straight to you!

With love and gratitude,
Kristy~xoxo

Creating a Peaceful Holiday Season

Welcome to December~

It’s official, we’ve arrived at the final month of 2025 and I don’t know about you, but it feels a bit surreal to me. I hope that wherever you are, this finds you well as we begin the last month of this year. December often brings with it lots of plans, parties, and places to go and people to see. You may already have a list of things written down on a notepad or in your notes app about extra things you need to get done today. I hope that taking a few minutes to read this particular note will help to support you in remembering to make your personal peace a priority this month too.

When you think about enjoying a peaceful holiday season, what comes to mind for you? Maybe you have great memories that show up for you from previous years. Maybe for you it’s more of a feeling that you remember and want to recreate each year. Maybe it’s acts of service that make the season special for you. Maybe it’s the people, places, traditions, decorations, or special foods that really mark the moments for you during December. Maybe it’s a bit of everything but just the right amount of each so that you can actually be present and enjoy the experiences that you’re participating in while they’re happening. Whatever that perfect blend is for you this season, the big take away here is the combination of being present, enjoying the experience, and peacefulness. I know that it may not be possible to have all three of these at the same time; however, these are powerful intentions to set for your holiday season. If you’re experiencing a season that’s a bit different than you expected for whatever reasons, know that you can still create and experience a beautiful season in ways that resonate for you. Maybe in a few quiet moments today or tomorrow, you can check in with yourself to get clear on what aspects of this season are priorities for you this year. This doesn’t have to take a lot of time, in fact, you probably already have a good idea of what feels right for you. Taking a few extra moments while you have a cup of tea or coffee to set your intentions for the season can be a really powerful way to support yourself in creating the experiences that you really value this December.

I know that you already know this so please take it as a gentle reminder that this month is going to pass by very quickly; almost like a blink and another day is coming to a close, all month long. There’s a collective energy that tends to build and pick up speed as we arrive at the first day of December and you can feel it moving more and more quickly each day. With this knowledge, we can use this to support ourselves in remembering to make the most of the moments here and there each day as we move through this final month of the year. Choosing to take in the quiet moments in the morning or throughout your day. Enjoying the golden lights from decorations or the fireplace inside your home while the days become shorter and the evenings become longer. Listening to the quiet that comes from a very gentle rain or a soft snow outside your window. Enjoying the scent of mulling spices or your favorite simmer pot on the stove. All of these things and so much more are all part of what makes this time of year special, magical, and seasonal. Giving yourself permission to enjoy and invest in the aspects of the season that are special for you will help you to slow down and experience the season in the ways that resonate for you. Remember, it’s not possible to do everything, all the time, so go ahead and set that down and choose to say yes to the things that you want to do this December in the ways that are meaningful for you.

I’m wishing you and yours a very happy, healthy, and peaceful holiday season.
I look forward to working with you this month if you feel guided to schedule a session with me.

As always, I’m sending you love and support from my teeny tiny corner of the world, straight to you!

Thank you so much for being here, it means so much to me.
With deepest love and gratitude,

Kristy~xoxo

P.S. I’m planning on cozy socks, baking, hot drinks in festive mugs, and watching some favorite old movies as things I’m especially looking forward to and prioritizing this season. I’d love to hear some of the things on your list as well.

Inspiration Meets Action

Hello and Happy June!

I hope this finds you well as we move into a new month and a new energy. If arriving at June feels like a combination of shock that it’s actually June but also like it took forever to get here, you’re not alone. So much of this year has felt a bit like trying to move through a swimming pool filled with pudding. Maybe you’ve found yourself working toward a goal or chipping away at a project and found that it took much longer than you anticipated. Maybe it has felt like you’ve invested time and energy to create plans and then find yourself going back to the drawing board or needing to pivot again and again because something just won’t work. If so, again, you’re not alone and things are beginning to pick up the pace and movement is happening.

You may already feel the increase in energy within yourself and within those around you. There’s a quality of things feeling lighter and that things are moving easier and more quickly. You may notice that you feel excited and inspired to circle back to one or more of the projects that you have tried to get going this year and find that things begin to line up for you. One of the positives of resetting and reviewing is that you can really focus on how you want something to be so that when it’s time to take action you are confident in bringing your dreams into reality.

What are some of the things that have been showing up for you this year as themes, inspiration, ideas, or divine guidance that has moved you toward action? If you look back over your year so far you will be able to see or connect with themes that have been important to you. Even if your efforts have felt a bit like taking one step forward and one step back, that’s okay; just take a minute to think about what you’ve been interested in or guided to focus on this year. This is a great time to reconnect to these areas of interest and inspiration for you; and to begin taking action. The combination of knowing what you want to do and moving forward in that direction is very timely this month. You don’t have to do everything all at once and you don’t have to know how to do everything all on your own. Just start with one or two steps and you will see how the momentum begins to move you forward. If you need help or support, please ask for help from someone who can be of service to you. You may find that friends or colleagues have information or support for you or that they can direct you to someone who can help. You may want to reach out to a professional as well so that you can keep your momentum building and experience success in your endeavors. Whether you are building out a garden, a new website, a business, learning a new skill, preparing for a move, working on your meditation practice, increasing your spiritual gifts, or __________________: you can reach out for support when you need it knowing it will help you continue to move forward.

In addition to things moving more easily and a feeling of lightening; you may also notice that you’re being guided to lighten the things that you’re eating and drinking too. You may notice that you feel guided to drink more water or gentle teas and pass on that extra cup of coffee, soda, or energy drink. You may feel like you want to get your juicer out of the cupboard and start juicing again. Maybe you are craving greens, salads, and herbaceous foods. It can feel almost like a switch has been flipped and all of a sudden you want or feel like you need to have all the Phyto-nutrients. This doesn’t mean you won’t want to enjoy other foods and beverages too; it just means you may notice this call to increase lighter foods and beverages in addition to enjoying your other favorites. As a highly sensitive person, this shift in eating will also support you in working with this new energy and help you to move with the ebbs, flows, and shifts that are happening. You’ll find that this combination of lightening your body and the lightening of this energy will support you in more easily gaining traction on your goals and projects.

This is a powerful time to move forward and to enjoy the process at the same time. You’ve been working so diligently all year building the foundation for the changes that you’re bringing into your life and this is a beautiful time to bring those dreams into reality. So, take a breath, let go of any tension or stress that may be trying to hold space within you and give yourself permission to move into this new month with a renewed sense of excitement and inspiration. Focus on doing one thing today to support yourself in moving forward and remember to ask for help when you need it.

If you feel guided to work with me this month, I would love to support you during a session.

As always, I’m sending you love and support from my teeny tiny corner of the world straight to you!

With love and gratitude,
Kristy~xoxo

February, Tapping Into the Magic

Hello, I hope this finds you well as we welcome February and a brand-new energy.
This is one of my favorite times of the year because even though it’s still technically winter in the Northern Hemisphere, signs of new life and new energy begin to make themselves known every day. You may already feel the palpable energy that is happening all around you and within you too. As the days continue to get longer and the bulbs begin to bloom, you may notice that you have a renewed energy, inspiration, and excitement about your life. This increase in momentum, joy, or energy is mirrored back to us by Mother Nature as we all collectively move toward the quickening and into Spring.

This month is like magic because while it’s the shortest month of the year it provides us so much change in such a small amount of time. Each day of this little month will increasingly offer us more of this renewed energy and spirit as we move though this last part of the winter season. You can tap into this energy and February magic simply by allowing yourself to notice and enjoy this shift that is happening right now within and around you. There is no one way or right way to enjoy or work with this energy, it’s just about finding the ways that resonate for you.

This month is also noted for its themes around love, friendship, and kindness. I think these two seemingly different themes work beautifully together. You see, as you naturally lean into this energy of forward motion, you’ll automatically be connecting to this February magic. As you take good care of yourself, you’ll also be loving and honoring yourself too. As we take good care of ourselves, we have more energy which allows us to take good care of the people in our lives that we love, too.

I encourage you to have fun tapping into this new energy this month, even for a few minutes each day and see how it makes you feel. Maybe you’ll feel guided to begin this new month with a few goals in mind and invest a little bit of time each day to working on them. Maybe this month you’ll feel guided to do something kind or thoughtful for someone you know, even if that means sending them a note letting them know you’re thinking about them. Maybe you’ll feel guided to make time for a quiet cup of tea each day and a little self-reflection. Maybe you enjoy looking for signs of the quickening like I do and make an effort to look for the subtle but real signs that things are waking up all around us each day. I like to go for walks even if I have to bundle up and look for new bulbs, birds, and grasses showing up in places they weren’t only a few days before. This month always feels like it’s holding onto a little secret somehow and it’s filled with gifts for each of us in infinite ways as long as we allow ourselves the chance to see and receive them.

If I had to choose a theme for this month, I would choose, expect miracles. It may seem like a big theme for such a little month, however miracles happen every day. This is a month that can breathe new life into the places and spaces which may have felt stagnant for you; allowing for shifts and changes that you can see and experience. My wish for you is that you’ll allow yourself to open up to all of the gifts that are available to you during this magical month of February. I hope you’ll enjoy every single day of the teeniest month of the new year. If you feel guided to share how you’re tapping into this energy, I would love to hear from you!

I’m sending you so much love and support from my teeny tiny corner of the world straight to you!
All my love and gratitude,
Kristy~ xoxo

If you feel guided to work with me, I’m here for you.

The Season of Light

Happy December~

I hope this finds you well as we welcome the season of light together.
This time of year brings with it lots of extra light; some in the form of teeny lights, fairy lights, lights on homes, in trees, and even in windows. Maybe you’ve already added extra light to your home too. There’s something special and almost magical that happens when you add light to extra spaces in your home. Those little extra lights help to stir something within in us on a soul level. Maybe you’ve noticed this happening for you too; the feeling of deep calm, comfort, quiet, and sometimes a welling up of love and fond memories. Maybe you’ve noticed how these extra lights have a soothing effect on the people in your home and if you have little fur babies, how they’re impacted by the extra light as well.  

Often the light in combination with longer nights and darker days (for those of us living in the northern hemisphere) can create windows of opportunity for deep reflection, slowing down, and a focus on simplicity, and peace. There’s a calling from deep within us asking us to get quiet and to focus on the things that resonate with us on a core level as we prepare to move into a season of rest, renewal, and rejuvenation. While living in a modern world where the cyclical shifts of the seasons can feel like they’re happening next to us while we’re often living in a perpetual forward motion can be challenging. However, we can find ways to work with this push pull dichotomy so that we can integrate these experiences into our own lives in ways that work for us. We’re part of those cycles too and as we find ways to lean into them, we can find a place that feels more like us and feels more enjoyable.

Like most things, there’s no one way or right way to create this experience, there are only the ways that are right for you and your lifestyle; and you’re the only person who knows which ways are the right ways for you. If we think about lighting our lamp from within, we can focus on the aspects, areas, themes, or values that feel soothing, comforting, and like coming home as great places to start. Please remember that there’s no wrong answer here, and you can change your answers by adding to your list or removing things at any time you choose.

You may want to ask yourself the following questions to help you get started:

• What do I know that I need to do for myself right now?

• What is my body telling me that I need right now?

• How can I nurture my soul right now?

• In what ways can I create a space that feels supportive, soothing, and peaceful to me right now?

• What kinds of sounds, scents, and textures feel like the right fit for me right now?

• How can I cultivate a feeling that represents me right now?

• Are there any things I can let go from my to do list right now? If so, what?

• How can I lean into this season of light right now?

• What does the season of light mean to me?

• How can I light my lamp from within right now?

• Is there a theme I want to focus on for this season of light? If so, what?

Some of the things that showed up for you may be things that you expected to find while others may be a surprise for you. Please know this isn’t another thing to add to your to do list but rather an opportunity to understand which areas or aspects of this season are speaking to you. The areas that are prescient for you may be similar to someone else’s but they may be entirely tailored for you. Give yourself permission to lean into your season of light in the ways that resonate for you. This can help to create a season that feels uplifting, supportive, and meaningful for you in a special way. It can also help you to slow down a bit and to feel the experience of the season, the cycles, and the celebratory qualities of this time of year.

This season can bring up lots of big feelings, emotions, and experiences. Sometimes, by taking a little time to cultivate and nurture your own light, it can help ease any big feelings that come up at this time of year. As the days grow darker and the nights longer, we’re given an opportunity to increase our own light and the light we have around us. My wish for you this season is that you allow your light to shine in full spectrum not only for the benefit of your loved ones but also for yourself. Feed your light with the love you have for your life. Fill your light with the things, people, situations, and activities that you love. You may want to add some intentions you have for yourself as well as you continue to light your lamp from within all season long.

In deepest gratitude and love, thank you so much for being here and being part of my life this year.
I’m holding you and yours in my thoughts this season. The light within me honors the lights within you.

I’m sending you all my love from my teeny tiny corner of the world right to you.

Love,
Kristy~ xoxo
