The moment you realize this isn’t it

I just got back from an autumnal trip to Maine. I grew up in New England, just north of Boston, and lived in and around New Hampshire and Maine from age 24 to 34 before moving to California. When I first moved, I can’t tell you how homesick I was.

Lately, it’s been harder for me to get up and do yoga and stretch in the mornings. This always happens in autumn, when the sun rises later, and I’d rather spend my usual yoga time snuggled under warm blankets, reading a book.

Have you ever been part of a circle where each soul brings their own unique journey, yet there’s this beautiful flow of support and encouragement between everyone? That’s the kind of magic I’ve found in the Soul-Nourishment Coven.

You are unconventional. To me, that means you’re someone who desires a life that looks different from the societal norms you grew up with or live within now. I’m unconventional, too. Although, my life might not seem like it to some.
