Today is one of my favorite days of the year — Winter Solstice.

Rather than focusing on it as the shortest day, we celebrate it as the turning point.
The moment when the light begins to return, and each day after grows just a little longer.

If we allow it, this day offers a welcome pause in the midst of holiday chaos.

I know this season can feel stressful for so many. I can feel it — the rush, the obligations, the overstimulation — especially as I continue to deepen my meditation and energy practices. It’s easy to get swept up in it all. I do too.

So today, I’m making a conscious choice to slow down.
To do less.
To be present.

There are many ways to honor the solstice, but for us, it’s beautifully simple. We wake up and wish each other Happy Solstice. We take time to reflect on the meaning of the day. We make a cozy, uncomplicated dinner.

And our favorite part — we light a fire on the deck.

We gaze into the flames, sip something warm, and soak in the quiet glow. Often, we reflect on how this day may have felt for our ancestors — imagining the feasts, the gatherings, the shared warmth of fire — not so different from how we sit together now.

We feel especially grateful for the modern comforts that hold us through winter, even as we honor the ancient rhythms that still live in our bodies.

Today, we choose to be still.
To move slowly.
To step outside and remember our place in nature.

Wishing you a gentle Winter Solstice and the soft return of light. 🤍

There’s something so tender about making these…
a mama necklace + a mini necklace,
both infused with intention,
both carrying the softness of rose quartz.

As I create, I’m thinking of the bond they’ll hold —
the quiet moments,
the little hands,
the love that grows between them.

Heart Openers, for mothers and daughters. 🩷
DM me if you’d like a set.

Lately I’ve been working really hard… creating, building, showing up…
but not always seeing the results yet.
And sometimes that in-between space can feel sticky — like I’m moving, but still somehow stuck.

But yesterday something shifted.
Something finally clicked into place, quietly but undeniably.

Later that afternoon, while running errands, I caught myself getting swept up in the noise around me — the rush, the pressure, the energy that wasn’t mine.
And I remembered…
we get to choose our frequency.
Like tuning a radio, we can change what we’re listening to.

So I put on my playlist.
And when the song “Thank You for the Simple Things” started playing, I began to sing —
and immediately choked up.

Not from sadness,
but from this overwhelming, full-body wave of gratitude.

The kind that rises from your bones.
The kind that catches you off guard.
The kind that feels like truth.

I cried and sang the whole way home… letting it all move through me.

When I walked in the door with two bags of groceries and glossy eyes, Keefe looked a little concerned.
I told him, “These are happy tears. Gratitude tears.”
I gave him a big hug, and of course… the tears came again.

It’s wild how a single moment can open your heart wider than you expected.
A reminder that even when things feel unclear, even in the waiting…
there is so much to be grateful for.

Thank you for the simple things.
Always.

Grief and growth can live in the same breath. I know I’ve been sharing a lot of fun dance videos and other light hearted moments but it’s definitely not always rainbows and butterflies around here. We have experienced massive change in the past year and we suffered a deep loss in our family this July.

This weekend we will honor the life of Charles Jaten, my father in law. And this week leading up to it is big and heavy, but I’m also finding time to move my body, and be still.

This season has really felt like being in a tumultuous ocean. One moment I’m feeling uplifted and ready to grow and then I get swallowed whole by waves of grief and depression. Also as an empath, it’s hard to separate my feelings from those I love… so I’m literally feeling it allll. Everyone’s allll.

I can’t help but connect this to the energy of the year we are in…. The year of the Snake, which is symbolic of the cycle of death and rebirth—shedding skins, starting again. Over and over and over and over it feels like.

This is part of the story of Awakening Alice, one I’ll share more of soon. But For now, I just wonder—how are you holding grief + growth in your own life? 💔✨
