Here Comes the Sun

Hello, I hope this finds you well as we welcome April!

It’s finally Spring here in the Northern Hemisphere and even though there’s a lot of cold weather still happening for so many, the promise of warmer weather, sunshine, and new beginnings are here. I’m writing to you today from my home where it’s raining and cold but my tulips and violas are coming up and bringing with them a lot of joy, at least they’re bringing a lot of joy to me anyway. I think this is such a perfect analogy for this month and this time of the year. Even if things feel like they’re not shifting or maybe it feels like they aren’t shifting fast enough; when you take a look around you, you’ll see signs and messages letting you know that the shift is happening.

The beginning of Spring brings more light and length to our days and we find little markers here are there letting us know that the new season is upon us. You may notice that you’re beginning to have more energy, or that you’re feeling guided to get going on things that you’ve been meaning to do, or that you feel inspired to start something brand new. This is also a great time to dig into home projects whether inside or outside. You may feel that there’s almost an alarm clock ringing for you imploring you to begin some Spring cleaning. You may find yourself watching organization videos, or looking at home inspo photos to see what you’d like to incorporate into your own space. Maybe you’re feeling guided to start a garden this year, even if it’s a small potted garden on your patio. Maybe you’re being guided to increase your movement and you feel excited to try a new practice or go back to something you’ve previously enjoyed. All of these stirrings that happen at this time help us to re-set our homes and simultaneously help us to re-set our wellbeing. This is also a great time to re-set our goals or intentions for the year.

Moving into the beginning of Spring allows us to move with the energy in a really beautiful way. If you think of Winter as a season of being indoors and a time of rest, you can think of this first part of Spring as a time where we’re being guided to make shifts but also to take breaks. We may have days where we feel really inspired and energized and other days where we feel guided to rest and take it easy. We see this reflected in the seasonal changes too, rainy days and sunshine: cold days and warmer days. It’s like we’re being given this beautiful opportunity to move into this new season with built in structures for balance. Due to our modern lives and the demands that we’re all managing each day, it’s so nice to have an opportunity to practice balance as we start this new season.

Today, on this first day of April, I invite you to spend a little time tuning into the stirrings that you’re feeling or noticing within yourself right now. Are you being called to anything new? Do you feel guided to return to something that has been shelved for a better time, perhaps now? Do you notice or see any solutions to help you streamline any areas of your life? Do you know that it’s time to clear away some things, issues, or situations that are ready to be released? Are there things you want to bring into your life right now? Perhaps you’re longing for more joy, fun, and opportunities to spend time with people you love. Your answers to these important questions are your personal messages about how to move through this time and the beginning of this new season. You may share some similar experiences with other people in your circle which is fantastic because you can support each other during this time. You may also have some aspects that are just yours and that’s okay too. The messages, stirrings, and divine guidance that you’re receiving right now creates the personalized recipe for your needs. The more you can pay attention to the stirrings of your soul the more you’ll be able to nurture and cultivate the aspects of this season that are blossoming for you.

My wish for you this month is that you will allow yourself to honor the messages and wisdom you’re receiving while also enjoying this new season and the new opportunities it brings.

I’m sending you love and support from my teeny tiny corner of the world right to you!

With love and gratitude,
Kristy~ xoxo

Comes In Like a Lion, Goes Out Like a Lamb

Hello,
I hope this finds you well as we officially greet March and begin this brand new month, together. As I was sitting down to write this message today, I was thinking about the longtime folklore surrounding this month and I realized that it feels especially prescient right now. One of the big themes that keeps showing up for this month is a deep call, nudge, or feeling to get things done. It feels different than knowing there are things you’re wanting to work on, it feels more like being compelled to get things done and to get to work on them right now. You may be experiencing this in your life too.

For some people it may show up as a to do list that you begin to prioritize and feel drawn to take a closer look at what you’ve compiled since the last time you picked it up. You may have been adding things to your list for several weeks or even several months but all of a sudden you wake up and almost have the feeling that, today is the day, and begin taking action on list. You may notice that you feel inspired, energized, and on some level revitalized as you move through your projects. You may even find yourself wondering why it’s taken you so long to get going because it feels so good to dig in and get things done. If you notice some of those thoughts coming up, please try to be gentle with yourself. For many people, this is the right timing to get things done, so you’re right on time.

For others, this nudge may show up as frustrations, irritation, and even a little bit of discomfort in the body. Sometimes we may feel like no matter where we look there’s something out of place in the room, house, backyard, etc. We may feel that no matter what we’ve been doing, that things are just beginning to pile up and it feels physically uncomfortable to us. Often for highly sensitive people, when our physical surroundings feel a bit heavy or in need of some shifting, we feel discomfort on the inside too. Sometimes, if we live with other people they may not even see or understand what feels overwhelming because in the grand scheme, it’s not that big of a deal. However, it is a clear message that making some time to clear the space or spaces is important. When you honor this call within you to get some things shifted, you will feel a deep off loading of tension and stress and your home will feel lighter, gentler, and more peaceful too. Maybe you’re experiencing a little bit of both of these aspects showing up for you right now.

Maybe you’re physically beginning to feel stronger and ready to hit the ground running on some ideas, projects, or things you haven’t been able to get to because you’ve been in a healing phase for a while. (Raises own hand.) If you’ve been in a healing phase too, please be gentle and let your body tell you when it’s time to move forward and when to take it easy. Even seemingly small projects will feel great and enjoyable, you don’t have to do everything all at once or all on the same day.

No matter how this nudge or surge of energy is showing up for you, it’s a powerful time to harness this momentum so that you can work with the energy coming through right now. I see a clear delineation between the beginning part of the month, often referred to as the Lion aspect of March and after the 20th which is the first day of Spring here in the Northern Hemisphere also known as the Lamb aspect of the month. There’s this guidance to get going now during this first part of the month, to make progress, to go for it, to make changes, to create and cultivate solutions and streamline so that we can greet and enjoy the gentler energy when Spring arrives and have a little extra time to play, enjoy, and celebrate the shift from Winter into Spring.

If you’re wondering if this means you must finish everything on your list in the next 20 days, please take  a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth. Please release any tension or tightness you may be feeling in your neck, shoulders, or tummy. This doesn’t mean that you need to do everything, all at once. It just means that the feelings, messages, and guidance that you’ve been receiving about this new energy coming in right now are accurate. If you’re receiving these messages in any ways, please just let me confirm them for you. I see and feel them too, and in any ways that you feel guided to move forward right now, you’re moving in the right direction. Things that have felt stuck or sidelined may feel like they are getting movement, momentum, and motion again. As you honor this call to action in any of the ways that are right for you, you’ll find that you receive support from this current energy right now too. As you take action, you’ll find that you’re able to get more accomplished than you may have realized. This is a time of opportunity but you get to choose how and what you feel guided to work on during this time.

I’m wishing you a wonderful month filled with momentum, magic, and musings. I hope that the Lion and the Lamb aspects are equally rewarding and supportive for you. I’d love to hear what you’re being guided to shift, work on, and enjoy this month.

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

With all my 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

Moving Gently into the New Year

Hello, I hope this finds you well and enjoying the beginning of your new year.
Sometimes when we move into January there’s a feeling that we need to push into the new year quickly or jump into a lot of projects, tasks, or check things off of our to do list. Taking a little time to prioritize what you may be guided to work on or work toward this year is a wonderful way to set some intentions for your new year. However, there is also a deep holiday let down that happens at the beginning of the year which asks us to slow down a little bit so we can reset before we jump into all the things we have planned. If you’re feeling a combination of these extremes, you’re not alone. It’s natural to feel your body and your mind wanting to take a little down time to rest and restore. This call to move gently into the new year isn’t a reflection on your ability to make progress on your goals or intentions for your new year. You’re just connecting to your natural body rhythm and inner guidance about what you need right now. It’s okay to move gently, it’s okay to take it slow, and it’s okay to give yourself some grace as you move through the first month of this new year.

Many highly sensitive people, (like yourself) are noticing that they need more sleep than usual right now. (Maybe you’re noticing this too.) You may find you’re being guided to go to sleep a little bit earlier than usual and maybe even guided to rest or nap even if you aren’t traditionally a napper. Trying to honor your own needs to the best of your ability right now will help you to more easily move into a place of readiness when your energy stores are nice and full again. You’ll naturally find your energy begin to increase along with your desire to begin working on your intentions for your new year. There is no rush and no need to push yourself outside of your own limits, just take this time to honor your own inner knowingness about what is right for you right now. If you’ve been experiencing some unexpected forced rest like me, I hope that you’ll be feeling better very soon.

There are a lot of things happening right now including big energy shifts, intense weather, and what seems like big news stories nearly every day. Sometimes these situations even simply reading about them can impact sensitive people in similar ways to those who experience full moon symptoms. If you are noticing any of these symptoms, you may want to increase your hydration, increase your rest (to the best of your ability), try to treat yourself with tender care and listen to your body. You may feel guided to increase some of your favorite tools such as essential oils, listening to gentle music or an audio book, meditation, gentle movement, soft and comfortable clothing, and gentle foods and beverages. Even seemingly small acts of self care can make a big difference in helping with the big energy shifts happening.

However this new year has started for you, I hope that you are being gentle with yourself and allowing yourself some breathing room to go at your own pace. Taking time for rest is still doing something productive and it’s an important part of our overall health and wellness.

I’m sending you so much love and support from my teeny corner of the world right to you!

With love and gratitude,
Kristy~xoxo

Simple Self Care in Cold Weather

I hope this finds you well as we move deeper into the holiday season and closer to the first official day of Winter here in the Northern Hemisphere. There has been a lot of cold weather happening for so many people that it almost feels like Jack Frost has come early this year. If you’re anything like me, it may be a bit of an adjustment getting used to the cold weather and dreary days. I’ve included some of my favorite self care tips for cold weather below and I hope they will give you some comfort and support during this chilly season.
One of the biggest challenges that I have when I’m cold is remembering to drink water. I know, it seems so simple especially with every shape of water bottle available on the market but when it gets cold, I tend to forget to drink enough water. Staying hydrated is equally important when it’s cold as when it’s hot outside so here are a few ways that can help you increase hydration if you tend to forget to drink your water when you’re cold too.

  • Set up a room temperature water station in your kitchen so you can see it when you walk by and the water won’t feel too cold to drink.

  • Opt for drinking a hot water with lemon or orange instead of cold water. You’ll still be drinking water but it will really warm you up at the same time.

  • If you tend to drink coffee throughout the day to stay warm, try switching to herbal tea in the afternoon and evening. You’ll be drinking water and it will warm you up without dehydrating you.

  • Keep your humidifiers running (if you have them) so that your skin, scalp, and sinuses stay hydrated. The air in our homes can tend to get very dry when heaters or fire places are being used which can dehydrate and dry out our skin and systems.

  • Make a simmer pot on your stove to add hydration to you and your home while also adding some lovely scents at the same time. This option is for when you’re going to be home the whole time your simmer pot is being used. Fill a stockpot with water, add some of your favorite spices like cinnamon, clove, allspice, fresh rosemary, apple, lemon, and or orange slices and bring your pot to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and allow your simmer pot to fill your home with holiday aromas. Remove from heat when water is about ½ inch deep so you don’t scorch your stock pot.

  • Use your Netti Pot to keep your sinuses hydrated and clear. You can find these nasal cleansing pots at most health food stores or online. They are a big help especially if you experience sensitivity or challenges with your sinuses.

  • Allow your bathroom to get steamy when you take a bath or a shower, this will help your skin to breathe and open up. This will help you to breathe deeper and will allow your body oils, creams, and lotions to absorb more easily as well. (You may want to have some water in the bathroom in case you feel thirsty during your steam.) You can also hang a bunch of eucalyptus branches in your shower to help support your deep breathing.

If you find that as a highly sensitive person you experience symptoms of seasonal affective disorder during the cold season, you’re not alone. There are a lot of wonderful products and support systems available now. Here are a few things that I’ve found to be helpful, and I hope they will offer you some support too. Please remember you can reach out to a professional support person as well if you find your symptoms to be presistent.

  • Getting outside into full spectrum lighting when it’s possible for at least 10 minutes. Even if you have to get bundled up and stand in the one spot that has sunlight in your back yard, go for it. Even a little bit of sunlight can reduce symptoms significantly.

  • If you aren’t able to get into full spectrum lighting, you may want to consider purchasing a light box for extra support. The Happy Light (I am not affiliated with them in any way professionally) is a great option and they are really small now and you can set it up anywhere to get some extra light. You can find them online and the prices have come down a lot over the years. I find this extra light to be very helpful during this time of year.

  • Skin sensitivity can be an issue during this season, some highly sensitive people experience painful face swelling. You can gently massage your face and neck to help reduce swelling and discomfort. You can find images of the face map online which shows how to gently massage your face to help clear fluid and inflammation. You may also want to try using a Gua Sha stone or a Jade Roller to help soothe your skin.

  • If you experience body skin sensitivity, you may want to try Dry Brushing which can help with circulation, and movement of your lymph system. You can find body map images and videos online to help you understand how to use the Dry Brush to help reduce symptoms you may be experiencing.

  • Increasing your core body temperature is really important and many sensitive people have a tough time warming up and staying warm even if they are wearing layers and drinking warm drinks. Movement is the best way to get your core body temperature up and help you to stay warm even after you’re no longer moving. If you can get outside for a walk, you can bank some full spectrum light, get your circulation flowing, increase your oxygen levels, and maybe even work up a little sweat. All wins! If you can’t get outside, that’s okay, even doing a light exercise or stretching routine will help you increase your circulation, oxygen levels, and increase your core body temperature. If you have a treadmill, bike trainer, a yoga mat, or some light weights, give yourself permission to use them because it will help you to warm up and you will also benefit from endorphins from moving your body.

  • Insomnia issues can sometimes occur from being too cold throughout the night. If you have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep because you’re too cold even with extra blankets, socks, and flannel pajamas, you’re not alone. Your feet may be too cold (even with socks) which could be keeping you from warming up and sleeping through the night. If you have an electric blanket, you may want to get it out and see if that helps improve your quality of sleep. I highly recommend using a hot water bottle…yes, seriously, yes, the ones from old back and white movies. Okay, I know what you’re thinking but they are still available and in recent years I’ve seen them in a lot of stores with a variety of cozy covers in nearly ever fabric you can imagine. They really do work and they stay hot throughout the night so your feet will stay warm and you can have deeper, and higher quality sleep. They only trick with them is to double check that the top is screwed in all the way before placing it at the bottom of your bed. I recommend placing it in your bed 45 minutes to an hour before you’re ready to sleep but any time is great. You can find them online and in lots of home style stores too.

  • Bring plants inside your home to help increase oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide. We tend to spend a lot of time indoors when it’s cold outside and the air in our homes can get stale and stagnant. Bringing large leafed plants into the home can help to clear the air while also adding color and the beauty of nature. Color therapy with plants and flowers can help to add life to your home and the color can be very uplifting and supportive in more ways than one.

  • If you use diffusers to uplift your mood, the energy in your home, or to create a cozy environment, you may want to try diffusing citrus oils. Orange, Lemon, Grapefruit, and Lime are very bright and uplifting scents and can make a positive impact on you and your home. As you make filling your diffusers in the morning a regular practice, it will become natural for you and you’ll probably find that you enjoy using your diffusers regularly.

  • Say yes to cozy. This is probably my biggest tip for this season. Leaning into soft fabrics, gentle and warming foods and beverages, soft lighting, warm slippers, and winding down from the day when you feel guided even if it’s earlier than you would normally begin your wind down process. Honoring your body and rhythms to the best of your ability can help you more easily move through this season while also enjoying it too.

I hope these self care tips will be helpful and inspire you to cultivate your own personal self care practice this season. I’d love to hear what’s working for you! I hope you are enjoying a very happy holiday season. 

I’m sending you so much love and support from my teeny corner of the world, right to you.
With deepest love and gratitude,
Kristy~ xoxo

Winding Down Within

Happy December, I hope this finds you well as we begin the final month of the year.

While I was thinking about this month and how it holds so much within it whether it’s holiday traditions, travel, time with loved ones, reflecting on the year, or preparing for the new year I was reminded how much polarity is held within December. There are so many things happening outwardly around us while we’re also being guided to slow down, to rest, and to enjoy the aspects of the season that speak to our souls. You may be feeling this experience already even though we’re at the very beginning of the month. If some of these things are already on your mind, that’s okay. This is a great time to take a few minutes to tune into your guidance about how you want to move through this time and this season.

You may have some special things on your list for this month that bring you joy, feel uplifting, and are restorative for you. Events, activities, and practices that resonate for you and that make you feel connected to this season; activities that are a definite yes for you. Your “definite yes” activities are wonderful and a powerful way to know which aspects of the season are calling to you this year. Sometimes, with so many invitations and activities, the things that can sometimes get set aside are the aspects of the season that involve quietly or gently nurturing ourselves. The cultivation of our inside care and comfort is as equally important as the other aspects of the season but often overlooked for a variety of reasons. When this happens, we can feel like we missed out on some of the joy or magic of the season because we weren’t able to fully experience it and take it in the way we hoped.

Something that can help is to think about ways you can honor your vision for the season and the things that are on your list while also taking good care of yourself; this can help create balance and a support system for you. I’ve included some exercises for you below to help you find the theme and aspects that are resonating for you this season. Please remember there are no wrong answers here and you can come back to this at any time you feel guided. This is just a way to connect to some ideas, inspiration, and guidance from your higher self about aspects of the season that are showing up for you this year.

Okay, let’s start with a deep breath, in through your nose and out through your mouth. Good, releasing any tension or stress in your neck, shoulders, or tummy, and one more breathe in and out. Good.

  • My Favorite thing about December is ___________________.

  • I look forward to ________________ all year because it makes it feel like the holiday season to me.

  • One of my favorite ways to comfort myself is to ______________________.

  • It wouldn’t feel like the holiday season to me without ___________________.

  • My favorite quiet activity to do during this season is ______________ because _______________.

  • The most meaningful aspects of this season to me include:_____________________________.

  • This month makes me feel_____________________________.

  • My favorite restorative practice right now includes_____________________________.

  • If I were to create a new tradition for the season this year, I would choose ___________ because _______.

  • I feel grateful for _______________ this year.

  • I am healing and continuing to work through ________________ this year.

  • I’m consistently caring for myself by______________ and I notice the impact it’s making because ______________.

  • If I could add one activity to my season this year it would be___________________.

  • A tradition I still honor each season is ______________ and it makes me feel ______________ because______________.

  • I feel like I need more Joy, Happiness, Love, Peace, Grace, or ______________ this season.

  • If I could let go of one invitation or activity this season, I would choose ______________ because____________.

  • I feel like I need more Gentility, Comfort, Understanding, Support, Rest, or ____________ this season.

  • My must watch movie for this month is __________________.

  • I feel called to spend time investing in ___________ this month.

  • If I could choose a theme for this season, I would choose______________.

  • My soul longs for _______________ this season.

  • I can honor my soul and theme for this season by __________________.

Great job! I hope this helped you to find some strong themes, insights, and inspiration into ways that you can honor yourself and your holiday season this year. Please remember that seemingly small shifts lead to big success. Investing in one or two aspects of the things that are meaningful for you this season can make you feel more connected, present, and joyful during this time. You don’t have to do everything all by yourself and it’s okay to slow down a little bit as you enjoy December in the ways that are right for you and yours.

I’m wishing you and your loved ones a beautiful holiday season and a very happy new year!
If you feel guided to work with me this month, I’m here and available to support you.

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

Making Space for Grace

Happy November!

I hope this finds you well as we move into a new month and deeper into this season. For many people this month begins a kick off to holiday gatherings, festivities focused on food, traditions, a change in weather, and a time change on November 6th. For those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, the days become shorter, the nights become longer, and the weather keeps us reaching for warm blankets, slippers, and maybe a cup of hot tea. During this time, we’re being given an opportunity to spend more time inside, to turn inward, to take care of ourselves, and to slow down.

So many people have been experiencing feelings of being burned out, exhausted, and in a lot of ways overwhelmed. Maybe you’ve been experiencing some of these things too. With so much going on around the world, it can be really challenging as a highly sensitive person to manage your personal calling to help where you can while also honoring yourself and taking care of your own energy. Sometimes it can feel like our personal contributions aren’t enough which can weigh on us; however, every action, no matter how seemingly small does impact others and does make a difference. It’s important to take good care of yourself as well as supporting or offering help where you’re guided. Sometimes I find that highly sensitive people (like yourself) can struggle with healer or helper burnout because they don’t realize the signs that their body is giving them to help them rest or recover from all of the activities they’ve said yes to without taking a break in between. Becoming comfortable with slowing down and making space for your own needs is very important and will allow you to have more energy and more bandwidth so you can help in the areas that are calling to you, without taking a tole on you or your health.

This month is bringing in a deep calling to slow down and to take more time for genuine rest. This is a beautiful time to move with the natural shift that’s happening so you can take good care of yourself and your loved ones while also making space for grace. You may find that you want to focus on a few core things throughout your day and that things that were on your to do list a few months ago seem less prescient for you. This isn’t something to fret over, it’s part of this energy helping us to clear the decks and get back to the basics or fundamentals of taking good care of ourselves. It doesn’t mean that those other things aren’t important to you, it just means that they’re taking a back seat to what is important for you right now.

You may want to take a few minutes to think about or feel out what aspects of grace you’re being asked to gift yourself this month. Maybe you need more down time, maybe you need more rest or better quality sleep, maybe you need more gentle foods, maybe you need more joy, maybe you need gentle energy to help sooth your nervous system, maybe you need_________________. There are no right or wrong answers, only the answers that are right for you. As you allow yourself to hear, feel, see, or know the answers that are showing up for you, you’ll more easily be able to align with your personal recipe for support, self care, and grace this month. Slowing down is a gift that we give to ourselves and to the people in our lives that we love. This will allow you to feel more like yourself and to have more energy, excitement, and enthusiasm when you’re guided to say yes to an activity or invitation. Most importantly, this time allows for a deep nurturing and a time to truly slow down and honor what is right for you.

I’m wishing you a very gentle and restorative month filled with gentle people and experiences. I’m also wishing you a very Happy Thanksgiving if you’re celebrating this month.

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

With love and gratitude,

Cultivating a Sacred Space

I hope this finds you well as we welcome, October.
Just like the quote above, I’m also glad that I live in a world where there are October’s. This month is full of change and tends to kick off the Autumn festivities (in the Northern Hemisphere) while also beginning the season of pulling our energy inward. This month creates a beautiful dance between celebrating the Autumn season and the call to bring our attention into that quiet space within.

You may have some things on your to do list that are quintessentially representative of October. Maybe you like to go apple picking, or to your local pumpkin patch. Maybe you like to photograph the colors of the leaves as they change this month. Maybe you like to host an Autumn hot cider porch party to mark the season or something else entirely that feels like October to you. In any ways that you mark this season, this month offers us a lot of opportunities to really integrate into the new season and to see the changes happening all around us.

You may notice that as the leaves are changing outside, you feel changes happening within you too. As we’re guided to spend more time indoors with the days getting shorter and the evenings getting cooler; you may find yourself releasing things that are no longer serving you. An increase in quiet time often allows us to hear the messages and guidance we’re receiving about changes we’re being guided to make within our own lives. You may find that you’re guided to invest in more rest, self care, and even creative outlets that have been on the back burner for you. You may also be guided to find ways to create more gentle and soothing spaces within your home. All of these things are supportive and nurturing for you and can help you to care and comfort yourself and the people and pets in your home.

Light is often a big topic during this month as the beautiful golden light is so prevalent throughout October. Many people intuitively cultivate this golden light within their homes as well. You may notice that you pull out warm lighting whether with twinkle lights, candles, or even by lighting your fireplace. There is a deep calling for us to cultivate sacred spaces within our homes, and that call is often increased during this time of year. You may already be answering that call naturally without even thinking about it. Creating a space or spaces that feel calming, cozy, and comforting allows for you and those in your home to truly let down and to decompress while also being supported at the same time. Sometimes, the simplest shifts like a small table next to a chair can be an invitation to enjoy a good book or a great place to journal. Bringing out some soft throw blankets, coloring books, a knitting basket, or that pile of books that you’ve been meaning to read and placing them in arms reach can help to cultivate spaces that are supportive and calming. These are subtle additions to a space that won’t take up a lot of room but will bring so much to you and to your home. These are simple but effective ways that we can cultivate and invest in sacred spaces within our homes and within our daily lives.

People often mention to me that they experience more messages, guidance, or connection from their angels, guides, or departed loved ones during this month. (You may notice this too.) Some people ask why I think this may be; and I think there are several reasons for this experience. I do find the veil to be quite thin during this month which can increase our connections with our spiritual support team and departed loved ones. I also find that as we become quiet and begin to focus inward, we more easily hear or experience the connection that’s happening within and around us. The more that we take care of ourselves and clear away the things that are no longer serving us, we also clear the decks so to speak and find it easier to notice the messages that are coming through for us throughout the day. All of these aspects contribute to an increased connection for us which is why I think people tend to experience more messages or connection during the month of October. By cultivating a space that feels supportive for you this season you also intuitively create space for you to increase your own personal connections. You may notice that you see repeating angel numbers like 222, 444, or 11:11 more frequently. You may find feathers, coins, hear meaningful songs, or see images of angels. You may interact with people who have the same name as a departed loved one, or even experience dreams about your departed loved one. If you want to increase these kinds of connections, you can ask to experience them and then when you do, simply notice them and say thank you. You’re not alone, and when we can clear away some of the excess noise from our busy and modern lives, we can more easily hear, see, feel, know, and experience the connections that are happening all around and within us.

I’m wishing you a beautiful and magical month filled with things, people, and experiences that feel uplifting and supportive for you. I’d love to hear how you’re cultivating your sacred spaces this month. I’m looking forward to adding warm lighting to my home, baking bread, and making lots of soup, stew, chili, and all the things in my little Dutch oven, plus lots of knitting.

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

Preparing for the Subtle Shift

Hi, I hope this finds you well as we welcome September.

We’ve finally made it to the months I affectionately refer to as the “bers.” Each year reaching September feels like a palpable marker and the beginning of the quiet and subtle shift that begins to move us into a new energy and a new season. Turning the page on the calendar for this month seems to bring with it a promise and a knowing that we are shifting not only the season and temperatures but we’re also beginning to shift within ourselves as well.

Even if you live somewhere like me where the temperature is still in the triple digits (yes, seriously) there is a feeling that we’re already inside the shift. We can look around and see aspects of this in our daily lives with the days beginning to shorten, the garden harvest being brought in for processing, and the cooler and crisp morning air. You may also have little ones back in school or you may be back in school too. There are all these little whispers around us letting us know that the summer season (for those of us in the northern hemisphere) is coming to a close.

When we think about the season of summer, it holds a lot of outward energy. We think about being outdoors, visiting with friends, taking a trip or two, working on projects, or even things like cooking or grilling outside. As we move through this in between time of the last few weeks of summer with autumn in our sightline we can take this time to reflect on what our summer themes and takeaways were for us and begin to think about moving gently but steadily into our next season.

I find this time of year to be a bit magical, the in between time of these two seemingly different seasons. We can use this as a way to prepare for something that we want to focus our attention on as we move into this next part of the year. Was there something showing up for you this season that has been on your list to invest in a bit more? Maybe slowing down is a theme showing up for you. Maybe pulling your energy inward and focusing on some inside activities or personal passion projects are beginning to tug at your heart strings. Our bodies and souls understand the rhythm of our seasonal cycles and we can feel those shifts within us too. Sometimes it shows up as a feeling of being ready for the next thing or rather feeling a bit done with the current energy. However the message shows up for you; it’s that same wisdom, you know it’s time for a change and mother nature delivers that shift right on time. Part of the magic for me (and maybe you find this for yourself too) is that even with one season being about outward energy and the next season pulling us inward, they are really working together hand in hand to support us in finding and experiencing balance.

As we move toward this new season on September 22nd; you may feel guided to tune into the way you’re feeling each day to get a sense of where you’re being guided to shift and prepare. This doesn’t have to take a long time, even a couple of minutes in the morning will give you a clear message about how you’re feeling and what you’re being called to do to honor your personal shift. Maybe you’ll receive messages about pulling out an extra throw blanket for the sofa or your bedroom. Maybe you’ll be guided to pull out some books that have been on your reading list and set them out where you can enjoy them. Maybe you’ll be guided to look through some of your favorite hearty recipes for inspiration. Maybe you’re already itching to fill your home with the scent of apple spice simmer pots, diffuser blends, or candles. Perhaps, you’re being guided to get your fall garden sewn, chop a little more wood for your wood pile, and put up a few more jars of food. These seemingly small messages lead to the shift we’re moving through together. As you honor the guidance that you’re receiving during this magical in between time, you’ll find that you’re ready for your new season and that you’ll be ready right on time. While your messages may look similar to someone else you know, they may also be different, because your messages are yours. If you feel like you could use some extra help in hearing your messages, you can always ask your angels and your guides for a clear message in your physical world that you’ll easily notice and understand. That is one of my all-time favorite ways to ask for a message, and I’ve found it to work great. You’ll also know by the way that you feel, trust yourself and please give yourself permission to lean into this magical time as we move from summer into autumn.

I’m wishing you a beautiful shift and I hope that it is filled with messages and guidance of support as we move through this change together.

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

We Need One Another | Especially as Highly Sensitive Souls

Hi, I hope this finds you well as we arrive in August.
I don’t know about you, but this summer feels like it’s moving really quickly for me, especially since we’re now officially in August. I hope that your summer has been good to you so far and that you’ve been able to take some down time here and there for some gentle self care, rest, relaxation, and fun.

One of the big themes that has been showing up for me lately has been about the importance of personal connections. As a highly sensitive person, it can be easy to settle into a quiet gentle space in our personal lives to help off set some of the intensity of daily life. Sensitive souls often feel guided to take a lot of down time or alone time to reset and refill their energy stores. Sensitive souls often need more recharge time than other people and need to find ways to decompress and come back to center as part of their daily routine. Cultivating this balance of outward energy and restorative self care is a dance that sensitive souls do daily throughout their lives. One of the challenges is to find that balance for themselves which allows them to have the downtime they need without pulling away from personal connections in a way that can lead to isolation.

Over the last two and a half years with varying degrees of restrictions and in person connections changing from week to week and from county to county this experience of cultivating balance has become even more challenging for people. There almost seems to be another layer of needing or craving connection showing up for people right now; even after mastering all the zoom meetings, and all the changes we’ve been through, this message about connection is coming through in a big way. Maybe you’re noticing this theme showing up in your life right now too. Maybe you notice that you’re being called to be the gentle kind listener to people while you’re in the grocery store who come up to you and want to tell you something about their personal life. Maybe you’re being called to be the person to offer a kind hello, or a smile, or a compliment to someone as you walk in the park. Maybe you’re being called to tell someone that you appreciate their help while looking into their eyes and making a genuine connection with them. Maybe you’re being called to practice a random act of kindness for a stranger or for a friend or for a family member.

With this theme of personal connection coming through so strongly right now, I want to gently remind you that as a sensitive soul it’s important to remember that your needs are important too. It often feels more natural for sensitive people to raise their hands to help others. It can sometimes feel awkward or out of the comfort zone to ask for support or to let people know that you need something. Sometimes sensitive people can intuitively feel that their circle of support is going through a lot and they don’t want to add anything else to their plates so they don’t let people know what they need. Sometimes, it feels easier to pull inward to recharge since it’s a daily support system we use already. However, it’s also important to allow yourself to receive support and connections too. While many, not all, but many sensitive souls consider themselves to be introverted and maybe have small circles of friends, or maybe even consider themselves to be loners; we all still need some personal connections.

We need one another.

People need people; it’s part of our core support system, we need connections.
We can regularly practice all the things that help us within our lives whether that be working toward a new goal, learning a new skill, meditation, yoga, artistic endeavors, or _______________________. But, even with all the things that are supportive and nurturing to us and help to bring a breadth of support and joy into our lives, we still need one another. You matter and it’s important to let people know what you need, even if it’s just a phone call or meeting up for a cup of tea. You don’t have to wait for something really big to happen to feel justified in letting someone know you could use some support or just to spend some time with someone you care about.

In the same way that you would be there for someone that you care about, please know that people in your circle feel the same way about you. Let people be there for you in the same way that you are there for them. If you feel like you want or need some gentle people to come into your circle, please know that you can ask for those souls to be brought into your world. You’ll know them by their gentle energy, kind heart, and sensitive souls.

At this time where this deep calling for personal connections is making itself known again; please give yourself permission to balance your call to help others with allowing others to help you too. You’re not alone. We’re all in this together, and we need one another.

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

With deepest love and gratitude,
Kristy~ xoxo

Schools Out for Summer: Tapping into the Magic of the Season

Hello, I hope this finds you well as we welcome July.

It feels like it’s been so long since we last connected, I don’t know about you but June felt like a really long month this year. We’ve officially arrived to summer here in the Northern hemisphere even though it’s been pretty hot in my little corner of the world for a while now.

When I think about summer I often think about summers as a child and how exciting it was to have time off school, long summer nights, and lots of fun with friends and family. As a grown up, summer can sometimes feel a bit different with most of us working during this time and maybe some extra responsibilities too especially if you have little ones at home. I was thinking about ways to keep that whimsical summer energy woven into the season even with the responsibilities of being an adult. While there are lots of ways to do this, I was thinking that it could be helpful to think about a few of the seemingly simple stand out memories or favorites that you hold dear. You may be able to find a common theme for yourself when you do this. You may find there’s favorite foods you enjoy making because they represent summer to you. Maybe you like to do certain activities like making smores in the back yard because you have fond memories of doing that as a child. Maybe you really look forward to setting up an outdoor movie night with popcorn and other favorite snacks. Maybe for you it’s all about the swimming or maybe you’re already creating piles of summer reading books. The options are endless, it really just matters what stands out to you when you personally think about the energy of summer.

Taking a little time to find the theme or themes that are a fit for you can help you to bring that experience into your summer this year. You don’t need to pack every day with activities or spend lots of time away to enjoy the experience of summer. By choosing your theme and setting the intention to bring your personal brand of summer into your season this year, you will find that it allows you to open the door to the things that feel like summer for you. It can also add a little excitement, whimsy, and magic to your season too. You may find it helps you to tap into that childlike joy you had when you thought about an entire season of time off from school to play and have fun.

Here are a few questions you can ask yourself to help you find a theme that feels like a fit for you this summer. You may want to write down your answers if you feel guided and you can come back to the exercise at any time you choose. There are no wrong answers, so you can just relax and have fun with this process.

Take a couple of deep breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth. Good, letting go of any tension, tightness, or stress that you may feel holding space inside your body. Go ahead and take another breath, and let go of any to do lists, or other things that may be holding space around you; knowing that you can go back to them when you’re finished.

  • When I think about my 3 favorite summers; these are the summers that come to mind:_____________________________________________________________

  • Why do these summers stand out as favorites for me? __________________________________

  • How did these experiences make me feel? ___________________________________________

  • Were there similar aspects to these summers or are they special because they are each unique? ___________________________________________________________________________

  • Who was with me during these favorite summers? ______________________________________

  • What kinds of activities did I do?_______________________________________________________

  • What were some stand out moments or aspects that felt special to me? ______________________________________________________________________________

  • How would I describe these experiences of my favorite summers? ____________________________

  • What aspects or themes stand out when I look back over those summers? ______________________________________________________________________________

  • If I had to choose 3 words to describe my favorite summers, what would they be? ______________________________________________________________________________

  • How do these words make me feel? ____________________________________________________

  • How can I incorporate these words or themes into my summer season this year? __________________________________________________________________________

  • When I think about using these themes as an intention for this summer, I feel______________________________________________________.

  • My personal theme for the summer of 2022, is the season of _____________________________________.

Great job, now you can take a moment to just sit with any emotions and memories that you’re experiencing around this or you can continue to write down any ideas or inspiration this created for you; whatever feels right for you.

I hope this will help to bring a little spark of excitement, joy, and even some childlike wonder to your new season this year. In any ways that feel like a fit for you I hope that you will enjoy celebrating the themes and aspects of the season that resonate for you and yours this summer.

I look forward to participating in some of my favorite summer activities too; things like riding bikes, early morning hikes, making popsicles, more canning, swimming, and yes, getting through some of my piles of summer reading books. I would love to hear about your personal theme for the season if you feel guided to share it with me. I’m wishing you a wonderful summer!

I’m sending you lots of love and support from my teeny tiny corner of the world right to you!

With love and gratitude,

A Shift In Season | A Shift Within You

Happy June!
I hope this finds you well as we round the corner on the middle of the year. I hope that this retrograde cycle has been gentle to you and has given you some time to rest, reflect, and reprioritize. We have two more days of this cycle plus the little after period which is sometimes called the shadow, haze, or the whip; but we’re almost there.  This month also brings us into a new season; in the Northern Hemisphere we’re moving into summer on June 21st and will experience the longest day of the year.

As we move through this remaining retrograde energy and closer to the summer solstice you may notice that you have an increase in your personal energy and enthusiasm. You may also notice that projects, plans, and priorities that felt stalled, slowed, or stunted begin to pick up traction for you and gain momentum. This is an exciting experience because you can almost feel a surge of energy within you that gets you excited to get going on the things that have been on your list. One of the things that can show up for people at this time is analysis paralysis. This feeling of not knowing which action to take because you aren’t sure which thing you should start with or which task is the most prescient for you. While knowing that something needs to come first, the sensitive soul (like yourself) can sometimes get bogged down with not making the wrong choice. If this resonates with you, take a breath…you’re not alone. Sometimes this will show up as needing to over research what needs to be done, other times it shows up as distractions keeping you from sitting down and making a choice, and sometimes it can show up as good old fashioned fear or nervousness. All of these experiences are natural and nothing to feel bad about.

The great news is that you can move through this experience and begin taking action on your priorities. There’s no one way to do this, it’s a personal process for everyone. However, often the project that is most important to you is the one that has been on your list the longest or that you hold close to your heart. It can be something seemingly small or big; it’s not about what it looks like to someone else, only how it measures up for you. As you begin by acknowledging what that project is for you, you can begin moving forward. You may notice that by just saying it out loud or in your journal you’ll feel a wave of relief and for some people even a decompression from within and around their body.

Here's some things to ask yourself to help you get clear on what may be a great starting place for you right now. There are no wrong answers here and no one is going to see what your write and no one is going to ask you to tell them what you wrote down for your answers.

Take a moment to breathe, and if you feel guided to write your answers down, great but you don’t have to do that. You can come back to this exercise anytime you choose.

  • When you think about goals or dreams you have for yourself this year, where do you notice any pressure or energy holding space within your body? _______________________

  • How has your progress been going so far this year in the direction of your goals or dreams for 2022? ____________________________

  • What actions have moved you forward and worked out well for you this year? ______________________________

  • What did you notice about the situations as things came together, worked out, or made forward motion? _______________________

  • How did you feel? ____________________________

  • Which things, if any seem to have been stalled or gone off course a bit? _________________________________________

  • Are any of these items still on your list or have they been shelved? _________________________________

  • If so, why? __________________________________

  • How does this make you feel? _____________________________

  • If you could make a significant impact on one area, project, or dream on your list this year, which one would you choose? _______________________________________

  • Why? ___________________________________

  • How would this forward motion impact your life in 2022? ______________________________________

  • How would it impact you on a personal level? ________________________________

  • What kinds of feelings would you attribute to this experience? ___________________________

  • Take a moment to visualize yourself experiencing this achievement…good. How do you feel when you visualize yourself taking action on your dream, goal, or project? ________________________________________

  • Take a breath and focus on where you feel any pressure or energy holding space within your body. Where do you feel or see this energy holding space for you? ______________________________________________

  • Does it feel different than at the beginning of this exercise? _________

  • If yes, how? ________________________________________________

  • Ask yourself: What is one action step I can take now to begin making forward motion on my dream, goal, or project ________________________________________

  • Do I need to contact anyone to receive help or support to take this first step? ___________________________________

  • Can I begin today with the resources that I have around me right now? _________________________

  • Can I invest 15-20 minutes toward the realization of my goal, today? _____________

  • What can I do today to move forward? ___________________________________

Okay, great job!
You may notice that you feel a bit of an energy release just from moving through this exercise. Taking a few moments to connect with our own higher self about what’s important to us can help us to get clarity while also releasing stored tension or stress in the body we may not realize is there.

Hopefully this also helped you to focus in on an area that is really meaningful to you right now and gave you some insight on how to begin moving forward in the ways that are right for you. Sometimes I think that we believe we have to do all the steps all at once when we’re starting something new and it can feel overwhelming, especially as highly sensitive souls. The truth is that we only need to start with one step, even if it feels seemingly small, it gets us moving forward and begins to create traction for us.

Highly sensitive people (like yourself) can sometimes experience elements of perfectionism which can exacerbate feelings of analysis paralysis. Take a breath if this resonates for you. If you notice this showing up or any style of delay tactics, simply acknowledge it, breathe, and when you feel ready continue taking action on that first step. The magical aspects of getting started on something is that once you take action on the first step, you’ll be given the next step and so on. You only have to focus on doing one thing at a time. If you feel like you need a little refocus, or some insight into the next step, you can return to this exercise if you feel guided. If you need support or help from someone else, you’ll be guided to reach out for help.

As we move into this new month, new season, and new surge of energy I hope you find yourself enjoying forward motion and momentum with the things that are important to you. Just focus on one thing and go at your own pace. It’s not a race or a competition, and forward motion is still forward motion even if it seems like 15-20 minutes here and there isn’t a lot; I promise you, it adds up quickly.

I hope that you’re able to make some time for joy this month too. Leaning into things that bring you joy also fills your well, allowing you to make progress on your dreams and goals.

I’m wishing you a wonderful new month and I look forward to working with you if you feel guided to schedule a session with me.

This month, in between work I’ll be making jams, jellies, sauces, mustards, and all the things as I eagerly await the fruit season all year and look forward to spending some time in the kitchen canning my little heart out. All you fellow canners out there, I see you!

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

Soothe. Soften. Support. Setting Yourself Up for Success

Happy May!
I hope this finds you well as we move into a new month and into this new energy that’s already showing up in little ways. You may already feel these shifts happening as we approach the Mercury Retrograde beginning on the 10th. This retrograde will be with us through the entirety of the month and into the first two days of June.

I don’t like to focus on this time of year as something to be afraid of but I do like to prepare myself for the bumps that may come up during this time so that I can be set up for success to the best of my ability. As a highly sensitive person, (like yourself) I’ve found some common themes and experiences that can make themselves known during this time, almost like a cycle or pattern. I wanted to share some of the common symptoms I’ve found for myself as well as for others. I hope this will help to offer you some additional support so you can create a system that works for you as we move through this time together.

When we think about the Mercury Retrograde, it can be easy to get nervous about things like technology, communication, and potential blips or bumps in projects or travel. These are natural feelings as this cycle can impact these areas of our lives. There are often opportunities to focus on what I call the Re words as well, things like: review, revisit, restore, renew, replenish, rest, and relaxation. When we cultivate or create ways to lean into gentle support systems during this time, it can help to make it easier to move through this retrograde cycle.

I’ve also found some common physical symptoms that show up for myself and for other highly sensitive people. These may be things that you’ve experienced as well or maybe something that shows up for someone you love. Highly sensitive people can experience these physical symptoms and often think it’s just something they are experiencing, or that it’s connected to something else and they just can’t quite put their finger on it but they know something is out of balance. These symptoms can sometimes receive less coverage because not everyone experiences them during a retrograde cycle.

Symptoms can include but are not limited to:

  • Bloating

  • Tenderness in joints

  • Increased skin sensitivity

  • Feeling of cloudiness in thinking or being in a bit of a fog

  • Exhaustion or Lethargy

  • Low grade fever

  • Low grade headache

  • Feeling parched and needing more water than usual

  • Sensitivity to foods and beverages, potential upset stomach even to foods and drinks you normally enjoy

  • Food cravings for sugar, salt, and carbohydrates

  • Sleep Challenges including insomnia and/or dream disturbances

  • Needing more sleep than usual; including needing naps even if you aren’t someone who usually naps

  • Increased emotional sensitivity

  • Increased frustration or irritability

  • Repeating thought loops

  • Increased overwhelm in large groups or environments (grocery store etc.)

  • Feeling drained when in social situations

  • Increased sensitivity to lighting and noise

  • Increased or heightened spiritual gifts and or connection with guides, angels, and departed loved ones

  • Increased desire for quiet, calm, gentle environments and activities

  • Increased desire to wear soft, comfortable, and loose fitting clothing

  • Increased focus on self care, comfort, and self soothing

These are some of the symptoms that can show up for highly sensitive people. You may experience some or none of these symptoms but it can help to know that these symptoms are very real so that you can identify them if they show up. This can also help you to create a support system for yourself or someone you love.

The great news is that knowing what to expect allows us to prepare so we can experience a smoother and gentler retrograde cycle. There are some really easy yet impactful things that we can do to help make this time as supportive as possible. I’ve included some ideas for you below; by no means is this a be all end all list. Please use this as an inspiration so you can create and cultivate the personal support that is best for you and your loved ones.

  • Place large leafed plant near the bed to help increase oxygen and clear you and your bedroom while you sleep

  • Use a humidifier to increase oxygen while also soothing sensitive skin, scalp, and sinuses

  • Use dimmers or gentle golden or low lighting. (Edison bulbs create a gentle golden glow and can be found at big box stores and online outlets.)

  • Use a sound machine or gentle music to help soothe and calm the nervous system

  • Sage or Smudge your home to clear any heavy or dense energies

  • Edit or clear spaces near your bed so you can more easily rest

  • Set out art supplies or other creative outlets so you can easily reach them

  • Set out workout mats, tennis shoes, and workout equipment so you can easily reach them

  • If you plan to work on your garden or plant a garden, find out what you’ll need so it will be easier to begin your garden project

  • Treat yourself to your favorite tea, bath supplies, or cozy blanket

  • Take a little time to back up your computer and other devices

  • Have a little cash on hand in case there are any tech issues at the grocery store

  • Have a little bit of extra food and water on hand in case you feel guided to avoid crowds and stay home due to your sensitivity level on any particular day

  • Say no to extra demands on your personal time and energy to the best of your ability

  • Make extra time for rest, quiet, and comfort

  • Make time for meditation or spiritual practice

  • Make time for reading for pleasure, listening to or playing music, or journaling

  • Lean into activities that feel gentle to you; this can include watching your favorite movie while wearing comfy jammies.

  • Take breaks throughout the day even if only for 3-5 minutes to get up and walk around and clear from your work and devices.

  • Create room for more downtime and rest when and where you can to honor your body’s needs to the best of your ability

  • Breathe, and go at your own pace

  • Remember to ask for help if you need it


And…anything else that feels like a fit for you and that will support you in experiencing a more gentle and smooth retrograde cycle this month. I hope this helps to inspire and support you as we move through this time together. Remember, you don’t have to do all the things all the time, just do what feels right for you on any particular day and please give yourself grace. You’re doing amazing, and you’re not alone.

I’m sending you so much love and support from my teeny tiny corner of the world right to you.
With all my love and gratitude,
Kristy~xoxo

Cultivating a Soul Salve

Happy April,

I hope this finds you well as we begin a new month and lean into a new season.
I was trying to find a theme to focus on for this newsletter by tuning into the messages I’ve been receiving, the energies that have been showing up lately, and the recurring issues that seems to be really prescient for people right now and nearly everything was pointing to a deep focus on ways to honor, soothe, and comfort the highly sensitive soul (like yourself). So, grab a cup of tea or something soothing and let’s look at ways that you can cultivate a Soul Salve for yourself this month which you can use at any time when you feel like you could benefit from some extra support.

When things get stressful, overwhelming, or intense; whether these things are coming from within your own personal life or on a larger scale outside of your personal life it can have an impact on the nervous system which can create some additional stress responses. As a highly sensitive person, this natural experience can be felt on what seems like a magnified level. While there are so many wonderful things that come with being highly sensitive, the deep feelings and empathy can make stressful situations well, feel more stressful. (I know that you know this all too well as a fellow HSP.) The good news is that there are things that we can do to honor our sensitivity while also helping to soothe and support ourselves even if we’re experiencing big shifts and intense energies.

The great news is that there’s no right way or one way to do this, there are just the ways that are right for you on any given day. This means you can change, shift, and update your support system at any time which removes any pressure to choose something that you’ll use forever. So, take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth…good, letting go of any stress that you may feel holding space in your chest or stomach, good…remembering, this is something that is personal to you and meant to be a support system, and it can also be fun.

I’ve included a little exercise for you below which can help you to pin point a few things that may want to be added to your personal support system right now. You may want to get some paper and something to write with to jot down the things that come through for you. There’s no wrong answers and I promise you that you will receive messages and answers to the questions below. Just relax and breathe and have fun.

Imagine a space that’s just for you, it can be anything that you want it to be.
Maybe it’s a room that’s just yours, an office, a music space, a sunroom, a garden, an open air building at the sea, or something else completely, but it’s just yours. A space all for you.

Inside, fill it with the things that make you feel uplifted, calm, relaxed, soothed, and like you.
The you that feels peaceful, healthy, focused, happy, and __________________.

  • What does your space look like?

  • What does your space feel like?

  • What sounds do you hear in your space?

  • How does your space make you feel?

  • What items do you have in this space?

  • Why does this space feel calming and supportive for you?

  • Is there anything else you would like to add to this space?

  • How can you integrate these things into your daily life now?

  • What one thing can you do right now which will offer you some additional comfort in your daily life, now?

  • Is there anything else that you feel guided to do to support your overall sensitivity at this time?

Taking a few minutes to go through this exercise can help give you some insight into some things that your soul is personally wanting or needing at this time. You can use it as many times as you feel guided. Remember, seemingly small shifts lead to significant results. There’s no need to do all the things all at once, focusing on one or two things that resonate with you can cultivate a deep support system for you.

Some other things that have been coming up for many people lately and they may resonate with you too include, but aren’t limited to:

  • Needing to drink more water

  • Eating gentler foods, feeling guided to eat lighter and or healthier foods

  • Desire to move the body through gentle exercise

  • Participating in a gentle cleanse or fast (gentle being the key word here) This can include reducing refined sugars and alcohol.

  • Increasing full spectrum sunlight

  • Increasing vitamins and minerals

  • Reducing screen time and increasing listening to music or audio books

  • Beginning or revisiting breathwork whether it’s square breathing, yoga, deep breathing, or any kind of conscious breathing to help soothe and calm the nervous system.

  • Revisiting creative outlets to reduce stress and increase calm, this can also include coloring, gardening, and reading books for pleasure.

  • Removing clutter or items that are ready to be donated or recycled.

  • Increasing salt baths, hot tub time, or swimming

  • Focusing on your personal energy and cycles and honoring them to the best of your ability.

  • Rest and Sleep: if your body needs more of these things right now, please try to honor them to the best of your ability.

  • Journaling to help release and reset

  • Deep focus of making your inner circle and your home a place that’s calm, peaceful, and gentle.

I hope this very prescient theme about taking good care of ourselves is something that resonates with you right now. I know that it really resonates with me. As a deeply sensitive soul, sometimes it can be easy to focus on ways to help, support, and soothe others because it’s so natural for you. Sometimes, during this process, it can be easy to forget to do the same kindness for yourself. Please let this be a gentle and loving reminder that you are worthy of support and care too. I see you. I see you taking care of all the people you love in your world. It’s important to give yourself some grace, love, and care too. This month, please give yourself permission to cultivate your own soul salve in the ways that speak to you.

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

With all my love and gratitude,

Kristy~xoxo

I’ve included a special for you below that will last through Monday the 4th ending at 5pm pacific time. You can schedule your session for any day you choose. (one per person, please.)

Preparing to Paddle Out | Watching and Readying for your Wave

Happy March…can you feel it? The waves of change are up on us.
Maybe you can physically feel the energy rising up inside of you and maybe you can see it all around you; but no matter how it’s showing up for you, the energy is officially shifting. Here in the Northern Hemisphere, we’re on the cusp of Spring, new beginnings, and a surge of new energy. You may notice that you’re beginning to feel this building of strength, anticipation, and forward motion with you more and more each day. Maybe your energy and enthusiasm are beginning to rise and you’re being guided to line up some of the plans that have been on your list. This is a powerful time to take a deeper dive into what those priorities are for you and to get ready to paddle out so that you can ride your wave.

Have you ever watched (or maybe you’ve experienced this yourself) people paddling out into the water to catch the wave that is right for them? There’s a clear pattern of preparing, patiently waiting, allowing the timing to be right, and then giving themselves permission to go for it when their wave lines up for them, their personal timing, and skill set. This series of preparation and readiness is something we can apply within our own lives right now too. You don’t have to live near the sea in order to ride the waves of life in a way that supports, soothes, and serves your path, calling, or life purpose.

During this month while we’re continuing to foster our own energy, personal growth, and readiness we can begin to prepare for the wave we’ve been waiting for and working toward riding. This is an exciting time; one that can be a catalyst for forward motion and fun. Sometimes it feels like we have to choose either forward motion or fun, and sometimes that’s true; however, there are ways that we can increase fun, joy, and happiness even when we’re moving toward a goal or moment we’ve been working toward for some time. Each aspect is important, worthwhile, and a contribution to our overall experience.

So, this month as you’re noticing your own shifts, alignments, and opportunities opening up for you, I invite you to take a little time to prioritize your planning and playfulness. Tune into your own messages, divine timing, and inner knowing of what is right for you right now so you can ready yourself to paddle out to catch your wave. Your wave is the one that feels and looks like yours; it’s the wave you’ve been waiting for, the wave that you’ve been working toward, and the one that you’re ready to ride into this next phase of your life. This one is taking you to the next part of your year and into this new energy of fresh starts, new beginnings, and new possibilities. Remember you don’t have to force anything to happen nor do you have to go against your own grain. Seemingly small yet significant shifts lead to big positive change. Focusing on one or two things that you can do right now, today, will help to align you with this shift that is happening all around us and within us.

It’s happening within you…right now, right this very moment.
You’re ready.

  • Take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth and ask yourself:

  • “What action can I take today to bring me closer to my goal, dream, or calling?”

Give yourself permission to hear, see, feel, or know your answer; and then give yourself permission to go for it.

There’s no right or wrong here. Your message may look similar to someone else you know or it may be something completely unique for you. Your answer is the one that matters, and you get to decide how to integrate your messages into your life right now. Take a minute to write down what’s coming through for you and then grab your board and get into the water; your wave is waiting for you.

I’ve included some ideas that may help you to move through this time, but please feel free to adjust them, personalize, them, and create your own list. This is just a starting place to give you some ideas and inspiration to get going.

Lighten Your Load

  • If there are things that have been weighing you down, this is a great time to let them go. This can be physical items that you clear out of your closets, pantry, garage, or other nooks where things tend to collect. Donate, gift, and release the things that you’re finished with as a way to create and open up space within and around you. You may notice that you physically feel lighter after this clearing which helps to clear any clutter from your thinking space as well. If there are other things weighing you down, including ways of living, relationships, or old dynamics that have come full circle, it may be time to release those as well.

Shift Your Space

  • Sometimes simply moving things around in your home, on your desk, or outside can help you shift the energy in your space. This can help to shake things up and even create a shift in perspective for you and anyone else who lives with you.

Deep Breaths

  • Are you holding your breath throughout the day? Do you find your shoulders up around your ears around 3 pm? Do you find yourself taking mouth breaths? You may be holding your breath when you feel overwhelmed, under pressure, or in stressful situations. When you notice this happening, it’s okay, it’s not a judgement, your body is trying to give you signals that it would like some deep breaths and a little reset. Take a moment and do a few deep breaths and move your shoulders a bit so you can put your body back into a gentler state. You may also feel guided to start or resume a meditation practice which can be very beneficial for your overall health and wellness.

Ask for Help

  • When you feel like you need some insight, support, or additional hands on deck, please ask for help. Asking for help is a strength and not a weakness. You don’t have to do everything all by yourself all of the time. Ask people in your inner circle for support or reach out for professional support if you’re being guided to do so.

Listen to Your Inner Voice

  • Your inner voice is rooting for you. The real you is always on your side, in your corner and sounds and feels like love. You’ve been able to overcome all of the challenges in your life up to this point; and even if you’re venturing out on a brand new experience, keep going. Every step forward is still forward motion and you can do it. If you need help, insight, support, or expertise as you’re moving forward, ask for help. Remember you don’t have to do everything all by yourself all of the time.

I’m wishing you a wonderful month of new beginnings and new opportunities rising to greet you.
I’m sending you oceans of love and support from my teeny tiny corner of the world right to you.

With love and gratitude,
Kristy~xoxo

Easy DIY Sugar Scrub

You Will Need:

  • 1 Cup of Sugar

  • Oil of Choice
    (Fractionated Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, and Apricot Oil are some great options.)

  • Essential Oils (Optional)
    (Lavender, Frankincense, and Grapefruit are some great options.)

  • Bowl

  • Mason Jar or Tupperware style Container

How to Make Your Sugar Scrub:

  • In a mixing bowl add your sugar and oil of choice to combine.

  • Add a little bit of oil at a time so you create a consistency which feels almost like wet sand.

  • If you add a bit too much oil, you can just add a little more sugar.

  • If you want to add essential oils, simply add 7-10 drops of your favorite oil to your mixture and mix to combine.

  • Then, pour your sugar scrub into your Mason Jar or Tupperware style container

To Use:

  • Gently apply your scrub all over to exfoliate your skin.

  • The sugar will clear away anything ready to be released while the oil will polish and hydrate your skin.

  • Rinse the scrub off your skin, making sure that you get all of it, including from the bottoms of your feet.

  • After you’re finished, pat dry and enjoy your rejuvenated skin.

 

  • You may want to use your scrub in the bathtub because the bottom of your feet may be slippery from the oil. If you’re not a bathtub person, just be careful when using in the shower.

  • This also makes a great gift or a fun project to make with a friend. Enjoy!

The Magic of February: Tapping Into the Quickening

Happy February!
I hope this finds you well as we move into the shortest month of the year.
While it may be the smallest month, it brings with it new energies and one of my favorite things of the year, the quickening. If you live in the Northern Hemisphere, you may notice that little signs of the quickening begin showing up around you here and there. The quickening is that quiet burst of energy that begins to push through the soil, plants, and even us.

You may notice that you start to have an increased energy, enthusiasm, a burst of creativity, or desire to move forward on some new projects or goals that have been on your mind or on your list. Just like the crocus, hyacinth, and orchards start to make their presence known; you may find that you have a renewed sense of zeal for the new things blooming in your life.

While we’re still in the midst of winter, there’s a feeling that things are slowly but surely picking up speed as we gently move toward a new season. You may feel this push pull within you this month too; one day you may feel guided to go slow and the next day you may feel a pull toward taking action. This ebb and flow is one of the things that I love about this month because we’re in that in between space that allows us to tune into our natural rhythms while we prepare for the new season.

If you’ve been experiencing a slow start to some of your new year things, that’s okay. In fact, this is a powerful time to review some of the things on your list and reassess how they feel for you and it’s a great time to add, subtract, or adjust accordingly. Remember, you get to decide if something is a priority or if it’s being set to the side for whatever reason.

This is also a good time to invest a little time in self care, especially if you’re wanting to increase or reintegrate self care into your routine. There are 28 days in February this year which means that if you choose to focus on doing something for yourself each day this month, it will be a healthy habit that you can more easily honor all year long. Research shows that it takes 21 days to create a new healthy habit, so by the end of the month, it will feel natural for you to continue your practice.

Sometimes when people hear the term self care it can create a little sense of pressure or feel like it’s one more thing to add to your daily list of tasks. However, it doesn’t have to be something that takes a lot of time in your day and there’s no one way or right way to cultivate a self care practice. Your way may look like someone else’s or it may be something that is uniquely yours. The only thing that really matters is that it’s an action that is supportive for you.

Here's a few simple and quick practices that can help you get an idea of some things that resonate for you.

  • Morning Mantra or Focus for the Day

  • 5 Minute Morning Meditation

  • Filling your Diffuser

  • Listening to or Playing Music

  • Journaling

  • Coloring

  • Reading for Pleasure

  • Going for a Walk

  • Drinking Water (maybe with lemon, or mint)

  • Saying yes to an activity that feels uplifting or supportive to you

  • Saying no to things, people, or activities which feel heavy or draining to you

  • Affirmations

  • Going to Sleep Early

  • Asking for Help if You Need Help

  • Baking Some Cookies

  • Making Your Favorite Meal

  • Learning Something New

  • Planting Some Flowers or Herbs

  • Clearing Out a Closet, Pantry, or Dresser

  • Starting a New Project or Working on an Existing Project

  • ______________________________

These are just a few ideas to help you get started on cultivating self care in your own daily life this month. You can choose something that takes only a few minutes or something that takes a bit more time. Sometimes, I think we forget that drinking water, remembering to breathe, and taking down time are very important parts of taking good care of ourselves; and they definitely count as self care. Just like adding money into a piggy bank, it adds up quickly and you are 100% worth the investment.

As you begin your new month, I invite you to tune into your own rhythms each day and connect with this energy of the ebb and flow that’s happening right now. It’s such a magical time of the year and it goes by quickly which adds to the whimsical quality of February. I hope your month is filled with forward motion while also being balanced with things, people, and activities which feel soothing, supportive, and honor your self care.

I’d love to hear how you’re moving through the quickening and the ways that you’re taking good care of yourself this month. I’m planning on doing a little bit of garden preparations, baking, and some winter canning too.

I’m sending you so much love and support from my teeny corner of the world right to you.
With Love and Gratitude,
Kristy~xoxo
