The air is growing thinner, daylight is shorter, and the waning crescent moon pulls everything a little closer to the bone tonight. It's not yet winter, but our bodies have already started to turn inward. Our energy levels drop lower in the day, our cravings shift towards warmth, and our nervous systems crave gentle input and simple support.

This is the season when subtle care matters. Small adjustments that help our bodies reorganize before the deeper cold sets in rather than rigid protocols. Our circulation needs a boost, our immunity needs nourishment, and our digestion needs warmth. Even our minds follow the same pattern, sorting through what's ready to let go.

Plant allies fit in naturally during this phase. Roots steady our systems, mushrooms offer grounding and clarity, and berries help fortify us. Mineral-rich teas warm our inner terrain, keeping everything moving instead of stagnating. These kinds of supports work with the season's pull, not against it. The shop is stocked for this transitional time. We have teas for warmth and flow, mushrooms for focus and grounding, elderberry syrup for immune support, and other autumn offerings designed to help our bodies stay steady as the days shorten.

Open Friday through Monday, 9am to 3pm, at 2542 US Hwy 101, just outside Seaview, next to Buoy 10 Espresso. This weekend is a good time to gather what the season is asking for.

The deeper we move into the dark season, the more we can feel into how much of our inner work is held in the body long before it reaches concious thought. The darker months pull everything inward making it easier to notice the tension we've been carrying, the stories that loop beneath awareness, and the contraction that becomes so familiar we forget it is there.

Yesterday I had a session with Dissolve Therapist, Jordan Lavigne and it arrived in perfect timing. Jordan’s work is rooted in the understanding that the stress responses we have not only live in the mind but show up in the body as well, as patterns of tightening in the fascia and breath. Even in the way our awareness narrows & tightens around old stories. He guided me into the places where my body had been holding tension and allowing it to disolve was nothing short of profound. His method offered a moment of seeing clearly and letting my body reveal what had been waiting to be integrated. Jordan’s approach teaches a different relationship with stress entirely, one built on softening instead of bracing. His work helps you meet life from a place that's responsive, and rooted in awareness rather than reactivity. When the habit of contraction loosens, what rises in its place is a kind of peace that feels ancient, like something we were always meant to rest in.

Imo, this season is made for this kind of work. The earth stills so we can hear ourselves more clearly and the body slows so we can meet what we have been holding. If you’ve been feeling the pull toward integration or stress releif Jordan’s work is highly reccomended. ✨️

There’s a certain point each year when the season stops asking us to push forward and starts inviting us to pay attention to what lives beneath our awareness. The truths we overlook are often subconscious, shaping our choices long before we notice them. They rise more easily in this darker season, when life slows enough for us to finally sense what has been there all along. This is the time when our awareness sharpens in a different direction. Instead of scanning outward, the mind begins to turn inward, noticing what's out of alignment, what no longer fits, and what's been asking for space. The darker months allow us to see our inner landscape with clearer eyes.

Emotionally, this often shows up as old patterns resurfacing so we can finally understand & feel them. Intellectually, it can look like questioning the beliefs that shaped us. Spiritually, it's the season of remembering innate wisdom. If you’re feeling this shift, you’re in step with the natural world. The trees are doing it. The animals are doing it. Even the land is settling into a deeper kind of listening.

We'll be open Friday-Monday 9am-3pm for anyone wanting to gather seasonal support, like teas for flow and warmth, mushrooms for grounding, syrups and tonics for resilience, and simple tools that help bring the inner work into the physical world. You’re always welcome to stop in.

The days are narrow now, and we've begun the turn toward the solstice. The air is crisp and full of instruction. Nature teaches that this season is about integration, the gathering and digestion of what the year has given us. It isn’t just a mental process tho, the body participates too. Muscles remember what was carried, the nervous system softens after long effort, the organs begin to draw inward and conserve. Emotionally, old patterns surface for sorting. & spiritually, there’s a call to listen for coherence.

To tend ourselves through this time is to meet all of it with care. Nourish the body with warmth and minerals. Move slowly. Support the drainage pathways so emotion and matter alike can release instead of stagnate. Let herbs, mushrooms, and roots guide the way, they already know how to adapt to the deepening dark. 🫶🏼✨️

Freedom goes beyond the physical experience. It’s the ability to generate our own thoughts, free from inherited conditioning or societal programming. It’s about moving beyond the consensus and connecting with the essence of who we truly are, our purest selves. It's what allows Life to flow through us, unimpeded by external influences or pressures, and manifests in the authenticity of our actions, expressions, and deepest values.

This freedom is also the wisdom to understand the laws of polarity and relativity: opposites exist on a spectrum between poles, and we get to choose where we align along them, or beyond them altogether. We aren’t enslaved by extremes; instead, we can navigate them with emotional intelligence and sovereignty. True freedom is the ability to honor another’s existence beyond our preferences, to witness various expressions of Life without judgment or attachment clouding our ability to truly see others. 🫶🏼✨️

This is the time of year when the body asks for a little extra tending. The air grows colder, the light shifts, and our systems begin to draw inward just like everything else in nature. Herbs, syrups, and tonics become allies now, gentle reminders of the body’s own wisdom to strengthen, clear, and restore balance.

Roots build resilience, berries bring vitality, and mushrooms weave intelligence and innate restorative properties. Each sip or spoonful is less about fixing and more about fortifying as a way of working with the body rather than against it.

It’s a good season to rest deeper, eat warmer, and return to the rituals that remind the body it’s supported. You’ll find plenty of those here in the shop, handcrafted syrups, nourishing blends, and plant medicines meant to keep you grounded and well through the turn of the season.

Find us at 2542 US HWY 101, just outside of Seaview next to Buoy 10 Espresso. Friday- Monday 9am-3pm.

There’s a wisdom that moves beneath everything living. We can feel it in the tides, in the intelligence of the forest, in the way the body knows how to find balance when we stop trying to control it. Beneath all the chatter, something older is still guiding us. The body isn't separate from that knowing. It listens, responds, and remembers. When we nourish it with what comes from the Earth, we begin to move intune again. Herbs, mushrooms, & minerals, all speak a language our cells understand.

In the shop you’ll find teas to restore flow, balms and salves made from elemental ingredients, and smudges to clear and steady the space around you. Each piece was created to help you reconnect with the natural intelligence already working within you, and to reclaim a little more sovereignty with every ritual of care.

We’re open Friday through Monday from 9 to 3, just outside Seaview at 2542 US Hwy 101 beside Buoy 10 Espresso. Come by and see what calls to you.

Time on Earth moves in cycles, breathes in patterns, and unfolds in its own way. Tides rise and fall, forests sleep and wake, the light returns and fades again. Humanity is part of the same current, though we often forget. We measure progress in straight lines, while the natural world teaches us of expansion in circular patterning.

As a collective, we've been in a season of individuation, a great separating. Each soul learning to stand in its own awareness, to see through its own eyes, to Know Itself apart from the whole. It's a necessary stage in the evolution of consciousness, though it can feel heavy. Separation is where we encounter choice, where we begin to see the spectrum of what it means to be human. Some cling to old ways, some seek new ground, & others are beginning to remember that individuation was never the destination, only a passage. We are being asked now to mature, to hold our individuality without turning it into isolation. To let difference refine us rather than divide. The Earth shows us how this works. The leaf, in all its wholeness and beauty, completes its cycle. It releases, falls, and becomes part of the soil, yet the essence of the tree remains. The leaf, though it appears to separate, never truly departs from the whole.

Not everyone is in the same season of this cycle, and that's alright. What matters is that we keep listening for the guidance beneath it all, the one that belongs to something far older & far wiser than the world we have built around ourselves. 🌀🍂🫶🏼✨️

The shop will be open today until 3pm for conversation, connection, and gathering what you need for the season. Hours are Friday through Monday, 9am to 3pm. You can find us just outside Seaview at 2542 US Hwy 101, next to Buoy 10 Espresso.
