Holistic Designs - September Updates

embracing the change

If a year was tucked inside a clock,

then Autumn would be the magic hour.

~Victoria Erikson

Magic. We all have magic inside of us. We just need to be willing to share it and let it shine. Somehow this season always brightens my spirit. Simultaneously throwing me into a melancholy memory of the distant past, while dreaming of the far-away future.Walking through the streets, or along a tree-lined path and my thoughts wander between long-ago and far-away at the same time. My dreams always start to take form in this season more than any other.

Life starts all over when it gets crisp in the fall.

~ F. Scott Fitzgerald

Last year, in September, I launched my first holistic retreat in Marrakesh, Morocco. It was a life dream and I had finally done it! But alas, in just one year, the world has changed and I am having to change too. No more exotic travel retreats for the foreseeable future. My business plan of 5 years just got stopped short before it even got a chance to really fly.

Just like everyone, even you. It is a new normal and our original life dreams & plans are now needing to be revised.

What has radically changed in your life in this past year? I am guessing you are replying with something like, "what hasn't changed?!" I know. I get it. It is a seriously radically new world we are all trying to navigate. Some are managing better than others. Others have less dramatic changes. Some even have had the luck of this bringing in positive change. Though, for the most part, this is not the case. Many of you are facing really hard times. If not with your finances, with your dreams. It is tough, I know. My one strong vision is that we are stronger together than apart. So let's get together and become stronger.

So, now I am re-focusing on my dreams in a NEW WAY. Adjusting my life-lens and my home to support me is going to be my main focus for me this season.

seeking deeper connections

The summer was a time of healing and re-grounding myself. A time to look within, and to embrace my new fur-family member, Chaplin. Typically a season of extroversion, this one was very different. Again, a new chance to embrace a new normal. Was your summer the same, or did you feel the shift too? Did you have to have a Stay-vaction instead of traveling to your favorite place? How did that feel?

So many of us are traveling on the same path, yet because we have been disconnected we are unaware that there is help in reach to assist with this challenging time. Maybe we are starting to recognize this due to the internet and our required online connections being our life-line in many areas of our lives now.

From what I can sense in the world, many of us are struggling with the changes and the uncertainty we are living in during this time. I know that personally it has taken a long time to come to grips with these radical shifts and to accept that many of them are here to stay. The COVID crisis is still here, 6-months in, and no one really knows when, how or in what way this is all going to conclude. Whew. That is heavy stuff to swallow yet it is our reality. So we have to just lean-in and start accept this. And most importantly, we must move on and start to redesign our lives in this new world.

There are no accidental meetings between souls.

If you have read this far, maybe something that resonates with you about my story or my passions. Maybe it is time we meet. Virtually of course. Let's connect.

Personally I feel one of the positive outcomes of this last year is the reconnection I am feeling with so many other humans. Some were friends or colleagues, but many are brand new into my world and it is so much brighter as a result of these connections...do you want to connect?
