Katherine May’s book Enchantment - asks a simple question: Ask yourself what brings you a sense of wonder?
As many of you know, I am a big believer in intentionality. Yes, you can do a fabulous ritual with aromatherapy, crystals, music, and chanting, but you can also do a powerful ritual by simply making your morning dog walk a meditation of exploration, or using your morning tea or coffee as a ritual of self-reflection and self-care.
And, as I learned many years ago, when you do something that makes you feel great, you tend to be more consistent with it. For example, I meditate every day (sometimes twice a day) because it makes me feel calm and connected, not because it is good for me. My friend Lavinia dances and exercises because it brings her joy, and my son Jourdan gets up before work to rock climb, because it energizes him.
So, as we move into the month of March and the Spring Season, ask yourself: what energizes me? What soothes my soul? What makes me happy? It can be looking at the stars at night, having fresh flowers in your home, taking a walk in the park or on the beach, visiting your local farmer’s market or having lunch with a friend.
As we take the time to discover what brings us joy, we boost our immune systems and become happier and healthier inside and out.
To learn more about creating your own rituals, join me on March 18th as I teach Transformation Through Rituals for Spirituality and Practice. You will learn easy practical steps to make life more sacred and to give you tools to move into this New Season.

Spring is around the corner, so it is time to clear out the old and make room for the new. If you set goals and intentions in January, now is the time to weed your garden and have room for the new sprouts to bloom. Consider booking one of my services:

Once you get clear on your goals, I have also found that 30-minute coaching sessions can keep you accountable and on track, so I have created a special 6 session coaching package to give you practical tools to move forward.
Until next time,
Barbara
