In this episode we discuss how attuning to our own cyclical nature as well as nature's cycles happening around us shifts our lives. We discuss the Spring Equinox energies, planting seeds of intention in our lives and how old self-limiting beliefs and societal conditioning can block our manifestations or our progress, what it feels like when we receive intuitive hits and how fear can get in the way, and the importance of integration for embodiment. We also discuss how to use the power of the Spring Equinox to manifest, and more. I offer an oracle card reading for the Spring Equinox and a guided journaling practice with smaller practices spread out in between.

Tuning in and deepening our process of coming home to ourselves can help us identify what our needs are in any given moment, and from there, offer those needs back to ourselves. In this episode I dive deeper, sharing bits of my own personal experience within our cyclic nature, and how I'm holding myself through the tender and raw rebirthing process that I am in.
Join us for today's discussion around caring for ourselves energetically, physically and mentally within our own cycles of rebirth and transformation that each of us are continually cycling through, as well as throughout the upcoming holiday season - as an able-bodied person or as a person living with illnesses, energy limiting conditions, or varying support needs.
