đ Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered
October brings with it the magic of Halloweenâmystery in the air, pumpkins glowing on doorsteps, and that sense of playful mischief. But beyond the fun, many of us feel bewitched by endless to-do lists, bothered by daily demands, and bewildered by the state of the world around us.
Are you feeling angry, overwhelmed, or maxed out over the smallest things lately? Youâre not alone. In a season where everything tugs at our attentionâphones buzzing, errands piling up, responsibilities multiplyingâit can feel almost impossible to breathe.
⨠But hereâs the secret: you can reclaim your calm through tiny acts of resistance.
Step outside for five minutes. Let the autumn air kiss your face.
Put your phone in another room while you drink your tea.
Allow yourself a pause between one task and the next, even if itâs just three deep breaths.
These micro-pauses are not lazinessâtheyâre lifelines. They remind us that stillness is not wasted time, but a way of reconnecting to ourselves.
đŻď¸ A quick journal prompt for you this month:
Take five minutes and write down three tasks you carry in your head all day. Just noticing them can help you set them down, even for a little while. Ask yourself: Do I even remember what it feels like to have nothing demanding my attention?
When we create moments of stillness, we find space for clarity, for peaceâand for the magic of life to flow in again.
đ And rememberâthere are other ways to soothe your nervous system too. Reiki gently calms and restores your energy, while even a few minutes on my chakra mat can help bring your chakras back into balance. Both practices create the grounding we often forget we need.
