stop. breathe. listen.

welcome October

with all your gorgeous colors

and freshness

with lessons of letting go

and coziness

happy new month my friends!

books and books

new or old

all of them leave paths

in our mind

new feelings

new discoveries

new wishes

old memories

each single petal
a luscious softness and dream
waiting for the night

autumn equinox

12 hours of light, 12 hours of darkness

as the sun crosses the equator

today

bring your focus and your energy

inward

as the outside world changes

set an intention for the months ahead

happy equinox!

farewell to the summer

yes, you were a hot and humid one

somedays i got upset with you

but others i just loved that you were here

i’ll remember you as mornings and evenings

in my garden

 vegetables and flowers

smiling at me

and the sun bathing my golden skin

thoughts

they abruptly come

stealing a space in the mind

a space that wasn’t empty at all

but they are ruthless

they take us down without asking permission

isn’t worth to try controlling them

they become stronger with each block

the best is to let them come and go

we aren’t our thoughts

early mornings in the garden

a meditation per si

each step

each breath

each tiny droplet

bath me with joy

sharing the space

each stage has its own

beauty and fragrance

little by little

transforming

and gifting our senses

stop. breathe. listen.

to the sounds of nature

to your intuition

to the tiny bits of joy blooming around you

happy weekend!
