🌕🦁2/1 - This Full Moon in Leo felt heavy, creating feelings of tenderness and rawness. In the safety of nature we were invited to lean into release, to feel where we have been dimming our light, holding back, softening, or seeking permission to fit in, and to notice what truly wants to be expressed. The fresh snow became our blank canvas where we carved our own paths with footprints and imprints, writing down what we have been hiding and what lifts us toward the light. In ceremony we released these old weights, letting the papers burn as we sipped tea and reflected.
It is no surprise that January felt heavy, both internally and externally, given the way the world has been. This Moon asks us to be gentle with ourselves. It holds the energy of shift as the final shedding of the old before the Fire Horse year begins. It is an uncomfortable space between what is no longer working and the unknown of what comes next, yet it also brings a quiet readiness for change.
This Moon invites us to step into our authenticity, to honor our hearts, our creativity, and our joy, and to allow ourselves to be fully seen. May we move forward lighter, braver, and more fully ourselves.

🌕The February Snow Moon invites us into deep winter stillness—a time to rest, reflect, and tend to our inner landscape. Known as a moon of endurance and quiet strength, the Snow Moon reminds us that rest is not stagnation, but preparation. In the hush of winter, we are called to slow down, release what no longer serves us, and gently plant intentions for the renewal ahead.

During our gentle moonlit winter walk, we’ll explore:
🌕 Where your body and spirit are asking for rest and patience
🌕 What emotional or energetic layers are ready to be cleared
🌕 Inner strengths that have supported you through this season
🌕 Intentions and “seeds” you wish to plant for the coming months
🌕 The grounding support of community and quiet reflection

We’ll close with a calming guided meditation, a simple intention-setting ritual inspired by the Snow Moon, and warm herbal tea—creating space to soften, cleanse, and welcome the quiet transformation unfolding within.

Back in November, I had the joy of collaborating with the White Mountain Hotel & Resort in North Conway, NH to lead two forest bathing experiences during their Girlfriends Weekend 🌲✨

They generously put me up for the night, welcoming me into a space I’d admired for years from nearby summits. After settling into my room, I headed out for a sunset hike before returning to a cozy lobby, warm lights, and mountain views.

Dinner was a true treat. I was told to order anything I wanted from the menu, and enjoyed a relaxed, nourishing meal overlooking the mountains, followed by time under the stars, the outdoor heated pool, hot tub, fire pit, and sauna.

It was the perfect way to rest and reset before guiding forest bathing the next morning.

Part 2 shares that experience 🤍

🎄Christmas came early this year when I received a package of Swell Lab’s new body wash collection! These body bars are built on the same principles as the shampoo bars, but in addition to the gentle coconut cleansers, there’s added ingredients like kaolin clay and ultra-fine pumice to lift away sweat and daily buildup without disrupting your skin’s natural barrier.

🫧These body wash bars come in all the same scents as the shampoo bars, which I love so much! There is even a mini variety pack so you can try each scent before committing to a full one. These were the perfect size to gift to my family and friends so they can start making a sustainable and healthy switch, too!

♻️The packaging is eco-friendly and doubles as a cat toy, which I quickly found out. (My cats really liked these!) The bees wax coating on these works the same way as the shampoo bars, with a built in sharpener on the spruce-wood cap, making them just as travel friendly for those looking to cut out those typical plastic travel bottles.

✨Make your New Year’s resolution one that helps the planet and switch to Stem.

🌲📸Back in October, I had the honor of photographing Bianca for her senior portraits in one of my favorite trails in the woods.

She admitted that she was feeling a little nervous, having never had professional photos taken before, so I reminded her we’re just here to have fun. I invited her to close her eyes, tap into her senses, and settle into the present moment, calling in feelings and memories that made her feel excited and happy. I also asked what made her feel most comfortable and what one of her favorite things about herself was. Her answer was her hair.

🤍So I encouraged her to interact with herself in that way, running her fingers through it, fluffing it, playing with it, and having fun before opening her eyes. Right before I clicked the shutter, she opened them, fully present and relaxed.

As we wandered, I asked her questions and got to know who she is beyond the titles she holds, beyond being a daughter, friend, student, or girlfriend. The forest naturally held the space, softened the nerves, and allowed her to open up in such a genuine way. What unfolded were these beautiful, grounded, authentic moments that I’m so excited to share. 🌿

If you’re looking for a different approach to photography, one rooted in nature, presence, and connection, I blend elements of forest therapy with photography to create images that feel less posed and more you 🍃
