September: A time to Slow Down, Streamline, and Settle In for the Seasonal Shift

Hello and welcome to September~
I hope this finds you well as we welcome a brand new month and a brand new energy. I don’t know about you but as soon as we hit this marker, the very first “ber” there’s a palpable shift that can be felt. Even if it’s still really hot in your corner of the world like it is in mine, there’s still a shift that can be felt today. I hope that you can take a nice long deep breath, in through your nose and out through your mouth as you let this new energy wash over you and your day. Even though it’s still summer in the Northern Hemisphere, the shift is already happening and Autumn will be arriving this month on the 22nd.

While we enjoy the remaining days of the Summer season, there’s a really strong message for us about slowing down, streamlining, and then settling in for the seasonal shift. When I asked about this, I could see that these 3 aspects were the key take aways to offer us extra support this month. September offers us this really unique gift of a gentle transition from the long warm days of summer into the gentle slow down of Autumn. While we have these next few weeks of summer, this is a great time to do a once over or to take another look at the things that you’re being guided to clear out, drop off, release, and tend to before the season shifts. This can be anything that’s been on your list or something that you know needs to be made a priority right now. Making time to streamline and to focus on ease, clarity, and simplicity in and around your home will be worth your time and energy.

This is also a powerful time to lean into a new routine or schedule, especially if you’ve been on a more relaxed summer schedule. Working with the natural rhythm happening this month can allow you to more easily move with the new energies coming through right now. You may already feel that there’s a big change happening; a deep call to begin focusing on turning inward, to slow down, and to prepare for a seasonal shift. I see a lot of changes coming in the new season and focusing on making your personal world a place that feels secure, supportive, and calm is a worthy investment of your time and energy. The more that you can clear away things, situations, and maybe even people that aren’t a fit for your personal peace the more that you’ll be able to cultivate the calm that we’re all being asked to focus on and prioritize right now.

By focusing on taking guided action and making space for your personal peace during these final 21 days of Summer, you’ll organically be ready for the shift into Autumn. You’ll notice that you naturally prepare yourself for the deep slow down, the focus on self care, and comfort that’s coming online as we welcome Autumn. So, while you work through the things you know need your focus right now, enjoy some of your favorite things about Summer too. Make some more lemonade, swim, hike, and watch the stars come out while you sit on your porch swing. This is one of the biggest gifts we get this month, we get to enjoy these last long summer days while we welcome the beginning of a brand new season. A new season which is fresh and filled with infinite potential, opportunities, and cooler weather. This is a magical time and a magical month. I’m wishing you a beautiful shift from Summer into Autumn and holding space for you as you make your personal peace a priority.

If you would like to work with me this month to focus on some personal themes, messages, and divine guidance coming through for you, I would love to support you during a private session. You can schedule your session by clicking the link below.

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~

Slow and Steady

Welcome to February,

I hope this finds you well as we officially greet the second month of the new year. While this month is the shortest month of the year it’s also a time of big shifts as it moves us from the final full month of Winter here in the Northern Hemisphere into the quickening and the preview of the next season. One of my favorite things about this month is that we can choose to focus on the themes of the winter season while simultaneously enjoying signs of new life popping up around us all month long. You may find crocus and snow drop peeking out of the snow this month reminding you to keep going one step at a time. These tiny but mighty little flowers over winter and then work diligently to bloom this month often in the snow adding a little color and hope for all of us to keep going, reminding us that change is coming soon.

One of the strong themes that I’ve been hearing from people is that they feel a bit exhausted or that they’re having trouble keeping momentum. Maybe you’re experiencing this too; the feeling of one step forward one step back. Maybe you’re experiencing some big swings in your energy levels or even some issues with your sleeping schedule. If these themes are hitting home for you, you’re not alone. The beginning of this year has proven to be really intense and almost like riding a roller coaster ride that just keeps going. In addition to the new year shifts, we’re being guided to continue to focus on themes like self care, slowing down, rest, comfort, and gentility. Even though we’re experiencing longer days, we’re still overwintering which means we’re still needing extra care, comfort, and quiet. Sometimes, we need a little reset to help us get back to a space where we can truly rest and almost remember how to take good care of ourselves if we’ve experienced a great deal of stress. The good news is that seemingly small shifts really do lead to big change.

February is a wonderful month to invest in a reset and a conscious overwintering practice. As the teeniest month of the year, it feels like it’s more manageable somehow to focus on a practice that will support you this month and hopefully all year long. Sometimes, what we need personally for self care and respite looks similar to others in our lives, sometimes it doesn’t. Taking a little time today, even a few minutes to get clear about what you need will help you to better understand how to cultivate your overwintering practice this month. There’s no one way to do this, just the way that resonates for you. You may know right away without even skipping a beat what it is that you need, great, you’re on your way. You may feel there are a few things that you want to focus on to support yourself in getting back to a place where you feel like you; great, you’re on your way. Maybe you aren’t sure what you need but you know something needs to shift, great, you’re on your way. You get to decide what it is that you want to nurture and how to take good care of yourself this month; and whatever you decide will be the right choice.

Sometimes, setting aside 15 minutes a day to do something for yourself can make a huge impact in the way that you feel. When you think about taking care of someone, you can probably imagine one person receiving and another person or group offering support. When you’re focused on taking good care of yourself, sometimes you are the person taking care and receiving care at the same time. Every act of care is an investment in your overall energy stores and sense of peace and comfort. Maybe making and enjoying a cup of tea without scrolling or listening to the news or answering emails is one way you can truly take good care of yourself for a few minutes during the day. Maybe getting outside into sunshine for a walk or bundled up on your patio or porch for a little while will help to soothe and support you. Maybe making sleep a priority is what you’re being guided to focus on this month. Maybe you’re being guided to eat nourishing simple foods this month to support your system and keep yourself warm with soups and stews. Maybe you’re being guided to take good care of your nervous system right now by reducing or removing things that are overstimulating or overwhelming to the best of your ability and enjoying quiet or gentle sounds. Maybe you’re being guided to stay in the moment and enjoy the season that you’re in right now knowing that you’ll be in a new season soon. Maybe you’re being guided to cultivate your own personal recipe of overwintering this month that resonates just for you; perfect that is exactly what we’re all being guided to do. Investing in 1 thing per day even for the time it takes to make and enjoy a cup of tea is 100% supporting you in this important work of self care and building up your stores during the winter season.

One of the reasons you may feel like you need more rest or that you aren’t finding your energy to be consistent is that we’re still in a season of rest and refueling. Every time you have an opportunity to slow down or to take a moment for yourself, you’re investing in your energy stores. While we’re living in a time where we work pretty much around the clock, we still need to rest and on a deep level our soul and our bodies know that winter is a season of rest. You can invest in your rest while also getting the things on your to do list checked off. This month is the final full month of winter, give yourself permission to lean into all the things that make you think of winter. Choose to overwinter like the natural world around us. You and I are part of this cycle too, and sometimes we have to remind ourselves of this truth. When you think of winter and what winter means for you, you can find gems of what you’re personally being guided to focus on this month.

So, this month, during the shortest month of the whole year, maybe you can choose to invest in something each day that supports and uplifts you even if only for a seemingly small amount of time. I promise you that you’re worth it and that it will add up to big change. Just focus on one thing at a time and go at your own pace. Slow and steady is a beautiful theme for this month and for this reset that we’re all being guided to experience together. If you would like to work with me this month to gain some clarity about how you can personally make the most of this theme, I would love to support you. If there’s something else you would like to focus on, I would love to support you in any way that I can.

I’m wishing you a slow and gentle February, filled with kind people and things that rise up to greet you and comfort you. 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

January: A Gentle Reset and Time For...

Hello and Happy New Year!
I hope this finds you well as we officially move into a new year and a brand new energy for 2025. I hope you and yours had a restful holiday season and that your new year is off to a good start.

One of the big themes that shows up for this time of year is a message about getting going and moving full speed ahead. I’m sure you’re already being inundated with these messages in emails, commercials, and other ad spaces. While a new year is a wonderful marker for a new beginning and a fresh start there’s also this additional energy happening right now that you’re probably experiencing too which is called holiday let down. (In the Northern Hemisphere we’re also experiencing the beginning of the Winter season as well which is all about rest and healing.) This combination of energies and themes can create a bit of a wobble in the way we feel. If you’re feeling a bit of this wobble or a mix of energies, you’re not alone. If you find yourself excited about the new energy for 2025 but your body wants to take it easy and you’re still decompressing from holiday stress, there’s no need to feel guilty or like something isn’t lining up for you. In fact, you’re right where you’re meant to be and you’re completely connected to the energies that are happening right now. It’s a bit of a mixed bag which is okay and actually it’s more than okay. You can capitalize on this mixed bag by leaning into how you’re feeling from day to day or even hour to hour to maximize your success right now. Yes, maximize your success.

January is a wonderful time for reflection and gaining insight into what you may want to focus on this year. It’s also a time where your body is letting you know what it needs too. Sometimes, we can get focused on one thing over another and then it can get things out of balance or lead to burn out. However, this is a time where all these systems are very prescient allowing you to have a clear understanding of how to prioritize your physical well being while also honoring the things you would like to experience, release, complete, create, grow, or continue to nurture during 2025. This experience can support you in gently moving into this new year while also finding your natural rhythm at the same time. As you move (to the best of your ability) at the rate that’s right for you, you’ll more naturally know or gain clarity about what you’re being guided to focus upon this year. There’s no need to push or to rush, as you already know what you’re being guided to do. Allowing yourself to move at your own pace, you’ll find that you’re ready to go again…when you’re ready to go again.
(I know, but it's true.) This is where the blessing of leaning into the way you’re feeling at any particular time can really support you in the present while also helping to plant seeds and even action steps that will yield results throughout the year. There’s no right way to do this, there’s only the ways that are right for you right now. You may feel guided to journal or make a list. Maybe you will want to look over the things you accomplished last year to help you gain confidence and clarity about this year. Maybe you will feel guided to do some meditation around these issues or reach out for some support. Maybe you’re going to tune into how you’re feeling and make choices based on what you’re experiencing right now. Maybe you will find that a combination of these tools will work for you…or something else completely. It’s not about what you do it’s about doing something that works for you.

Maybe you can think of this time as an opportunity for a gentle reintegration into your new year. A gentle reset and an opportunity to really connect with what you want and even need at this time. After a season of festivities and goings on, maybe one of the things that you need is quiet, gentle, respite. Cozy socks, warm mugs with tea, quiet mornings or evenings where you can spend a few moments just letting yourself be. January gives us this gift; it’s almost baked right in as a time for reflection and rest. Often, we pass it by for one reason or another. Maybe, this year you can allow yourself to receive this gift and its blessings even if it’s only for a few minutes here and there throughout your day. Remember that every little bit of self care adds up to big change over time. Taking a few moments here and there to honor yourself is a worthy investment and will make a positive impact on how you feel and will support you in many ways going forward. As you give yourself permission to be gentle with yourself this month, you’ll find that you’re ready to move forward in a way that’s right for you, at the time that’s right for you too.

I’m wishing you a gentle and supportive January and a beautiful new year. I look forward to working with you and supporting you throughout this new year. Thank you so much for being here, I’m so grateful to be able to connect with you. I know that you’re very busy and it means a lot to me that you take time out of your very busy schedule to connect with me and share your life with me.

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
