Hello, my friends, It's been a little quiet in here lately, and I wanted to take a moment to check in with all of you. September was quite a month! Between the intensity of eclipse season, some unexpected twists and turns in life, and dedicating time to my own spiritual growth and learning, I found myself needing to step back from a few things and give my attention to what was right in front of me. Sometimes life reminds us that we need to practice the very things we encourage others to do. Slow down. Listen to ourselves. Honor what we need. And recognize that it's okay to take a little space. With October now upon us, we're moving into another interesting period energetically. Venus is preparing to station retrograde, inviting us to reflect on our relationships, our values, our sense of self-worth, out boundaries, and the ways we give and receive love. And as we move deeper into autumn and approach the time of year when the veil is traditionally believed to be at its thinnest, there may be a natural pull toward reflection, release, and exploring the deeper parts of ourselves. If things have felt particularly heavy for you lately, I encourage you to be gentle with yourself. Not everything needs to be figured out right now. Sometimes the most meaningful thing we can do is simply acknowledge what we're feeling and give ourselves permission to move through it. A quick update on The Light Collective: We won't be gathering live on October 4, as I have some scheduling conflicts that day. But I want to remind you that this community is so much more than our monthly gatherings! This is YOUR space, too. 💜 I would love to see more of us connecting here, sharing experiences, asking questions, offering encouragement, and supporting one another. Whether you're navigating something challenging, celebrating a breakthrough, exploring your spiritual gifts, or simply looking for connection, you're welcome to share. If you haven't already, I encourage you to download the Skool app so you can easily stay connected and participate in discussions.

Thank you again to everyone who joined me yesterday for our Guided Meditation & Distance Reiki gathering. It was such a beautiful, peaceful experience, and I loved hearing from those of you who shared what you felt and experienced afterward. 💛 The replay is now available in the Classroom tab for you to experience anytime. Whether you joined us live and want to revisit it, or weren't able to make it, find a comfortable place to relax, grab a blanket, close your eyes, and simply allow yourself to receive. And remember, Reiki meets you where you are. Your experience may be completely different each time you return to it. ✨ With love & gratitude, Julie 💛

Hi Friends! I wanted to share a little update about The Light Collective. Normally we gather on the first Sunday of each month, but to be completely honest... July knocked me on my ass a little. 😅 It turned into one of those months that asked me to slow down, feel deeply, and move through some unexpected healing. While it wasn't what I had planned, I know it was exactly what I needed. Because of that, we'll be gathering next Sunday, August 9, instead, for a Guided Meditation & Distance Reiki experience. We'll begin with a gentle guided meditation to help you relax, ground, and settle into a beautiful healing space. From there, you'll simply rest and receive while I offer approximately 30 minutes of distance Reiki to everyone joining us. No experience with meditation or Reiki is necessary. Just come as you are, get comfortable, and allow yourself the gift of slowing down, breathing, and receiving. After the month many of us have had, this feels like exactly the kind of space my heart is craving... and perhaps yours is too. I'll have the registration page posted shortly, and I hope you'll join me. 💛
