Hi, Today feels like a special day… with the fall equinox right around the corner, I have some exciting news to share- My book, Radiant Rituals, (Shambhala/Penguin Random House) is available for preorder! I have imagined writing this email for a long time, and now that the moment is here, I am feeling so much gratitude (and also some nervousness) about putting my work out in the world.

What Transitions Might Be Teaching Us...
Hello, Let’s talk about transitions and what they might be here to teach us. It feels fitting as we too, begin to transition from summer to fall. The past few years of my life have been marked by a lot of change, with endings, beginnings, uncertainty, reinvention, and a constant need to reorient to what life was asking of me in each new chapter. Most recently came a transition that perhaps no one quite prepares you for - dropping my daughter off at college and returning home to an empty...
My favorite Summer ritual
Hello, Every summer I come back to the same ritual as it reminds my body what balance feels like. The night before, I place two or three strands of saffron into a glass of water. By morning, the water has turned a beautiful golden hue. Sometimes I'll add a few organic rose petals or a squeeze of lime. Then I take it outside. No phone or scrolling, just a few slow breaths before the day begins. In Ayurveda, saffron has long been treasured as one of its most precious herbs. Traditionally, it's...
Summer's Duality
Hello, Happy Summer! The end of the school year arrived before we knew it was here.

As one chapter closes, another one begin...
Hello Dear One, The air has shifted and with it my pace, a little slower and a little more intentional, and I wanted to meet you here from that place to share something tender and new - I recently, finished my book manuscript. It's headed into the next phase now with the publisher- edits, fine-tuning, and the alchemy that turns a document into a book you can hold in your hands and it will be out next fall. Writing these pages has been a pilgrimage of sorts, equal parts discipline and...
Summer Reflections
Hello dear one, This summer has been a season of resting in liminal spaces, time in nature, healing and deep personal transitions - and now, as I sit down to write to you again, I’m carrying both the warmth of those experiences and a sense of anticipation for what’s ahead. I hope your summer has held its own moments of joy, rest, and fun. There’s something about this time of year, as the days are slowly and slowly getting shorter, that calls us to slow down just enough to notice where we’ve...
