October Offering
As the colours change all around us, this is a beautiful time to head out for a mindful walk with the trees and conkers on a crisp autumn day. It's time to prepare your house for nesting over the coming months.
Samhain
Marking the half way point between autumn equinox and winter solstice, Samhain is a celebration of the end of the harvest and the start of the coldest half of the year. Some folk also see Samhain as the beginning of the spiritual new year. This is the real mid-point in the seasons and although unusually mild this year, with the clocks going back we can feel and see we are well and truly in Autumn.
Here are some lovely suggestions on how you can honour the season and step into your light.
Meditation
Here is a wonderful meditation from Susanna to connect with your ancestors
Liz and Susanna's Autumn read
The world has never been more connected, yet people are lonelier than ever. Whether we feel unworthy, alienated, or anxious about our place in the world — the absence of belonging is the great silent wound of our times.
Most people think of belonging as a mythical place, and they spend a lifetime searching for it in vain. But what if belonging isn’t a place at all? What if it’s a skill that has been lost or forgotten?
With her signature depth and eloquence, Toko-pa maps a path to Belonging from the inside out. Drawing on myth, stories and dreams, she takes us into the origins of our estrangement, reframing exile as a necessary initiation into authenticity. Then she shares the competencies of belonging: a set of ancestral practices to heal our wounds and restore true belonging to our lives and to the world.
With love,
Liz & Susanna
