September Newsletter

Warmest Greetings 
As we move into September, grateful for the beauty of August, fire energy, sunshine, warmth, blue skies and the welcome rain.The sun begins to sink lower in the sky and the colours of nature begin to change as we move towards the Autumn Equinox (23rd) also known as Mabon. Things are slowing down, August is a busy time in Devon! The leaves will begin changing colours and trees shedding what they no longer need. A beautiful time for you to reset and honor yourself and let go of what no longer serves you.
