Autumn as a Classroom

Autumn, the time of year when leaves fall to the earth away from the trees that have been their home.

What are you ready to intentionally and consciously let fall away?

What do you no longer wish to carry?

What have you realized is too heavy, and are now ready to lay down?

As the leaves fall to the earth they decompose and become nutrients and nourishment for seeds to be planted in the future.

What can you release now to become food for the future?

Here are some prompts to consider, perhaps journal about, or share in your sacred circles:

Accepting life on life’s terms

Resistance causes suffering. Acceptance, non-resistance, allows me to freely move through the feelings as they arise. Judgement and criticism are the actions of resistance. Compassion and curiosity are the actions of acceptance. Awareness is the magical tool that assists me in knowing when I am in resistance or acceptance. Gentleness with myself and others has been most important, and I have kept it close at hand this week.
