Caught in the swirl of a transformational tide, Rachel found herself juggling the discomfort of a cold against an undercurrent of burgeoning excitement. This week on Reflection Fridays, we wade through the emotional juxtaposition of healing past wounds and embracing the promise of a new self. We invite you to join us, as we navigate the echoes of our past selves, the prickly brushes with month-end anxieties, and the financial and professional stresses that test our resilience. Together, we celebrate the growth that arises from trusting the universe and our ability to respond to life's challenges with a newfound maturity. Rachel and G Peoples share an enlightening conversation about the art of mental equestrianism, if you will—managing our wild thoughts with the same patience and understanding required to build trust with a horse. We explore the importance of presence when anxiety tries to take the reins and the transformative effect of showing ourselves the same kindness we'd offer a friend. By learning from our past without getting tangled in its thorny vines, we discover how to navigate our internal landscapes with a roadmap built on grace. Finally, we illuminate the week with the warm glow of gratitude and abundance, finding strength in our unique individuality, as Ralph Waldo Emerson once mused. Rachel shares how the astrological wisdom of our rising and moon signs can be a guiding star for our moods and emotions, and how grounding ourselves in nature or physical activity can be the anchor we need. As we close, we invite you to embrace your awkwardness and the power it holds—a strength that emerges not from perfection but from the authenticity of being unapologetically you. ☼ ☽ Join us on this journey of self-discovery and empowerment.  Next Soulful Sunday: Feb 4th in Santa Monica.  -  Go to the link below 3 Soulful Sunday Sign Up: https://forms.gle/KhLjDCwzUT4AQ3ug9 For further inquiry & questions about astrology, meditation and Soulful Sunday events please dm us on Instagram.
