Episode 33: Summer is sizzling with energy — and if you’re anything like me or my students lately, you might be feeling a little too fired up. Overstimulated, overbooked, and overwhelmed. That’s because summer is outward, expansive, and fiery by nature. Without awareness, that high energy can quickly lead to burnout.

In this episode, I’m sharing 12 soulful, seasonal self-care tips to help you cool the flames, reset your nervous system, and actually savor the magic of summer (instead of just surviving it). These practices are simple, intentional, and deeply nourishing — think slow mornings, midday matcha, and Nidra naps 😴

This is the sister episode to my winter wellness one (Episode 12!) and offers the same blend of yoga wisdom and real-life honesty. Whether you’re craving a reset or looking for inspiration to soften your summer pace, this one’s for you!

Grab your iced tea, your journal, and let’s slow the funk down — it’s Slow Girl Summer, and you deserve to feel good.
