November marks the start of the holiday season here in America. While this time of year brings joy, it can also mean added chaos - shopping trips, party planning, cooking, traveling, visiting loved ones. With so much hustle and bustle, it's easy to let self-care fall by the wayside when we need it most. So as you dive into the festivities ahead, be sure to pencil in small acts of me-time. Maybe it's five minutes of mindful breathing, a brisk morning walk, or a soothing soak in the tub. If you can, book that massage or salon service you've been eyeing for some pampering. However packed your calendar may be over the next few weeks, don't forget to recharge your own batteries each day. Finding even a few moments of calm will prepare you to cherish this special season. #selfcare #thestillpoint #wellness #spa #spaindustry #spaandwellness

The hunter's moon 🌕 is one of several full moon names associated with seasons, times of year, and agricultural events. While it's not bigger or brighter than other full moons of the year, the hunter's moon often appears more dramatic when it rises due to its position close to the horizon. Some of the "Moon Rituals" practiced in all cultures are: *Moon bathing - Sitting or standing directly under the light of the full moon to bathe in its energy. Often done in the nude to "absorb" the moonlight. *Charging crystals - Cleansing and energizing healing crystals by leaving them in moonlight overnight, especially in full moonlight. *Moon meditation - Meditating as the full moon rises or reaches its peak to receive insight and energy. This may be done solo or in a group. *Moon rituals - Gathering with others on the full moon for drum circles, dance, or chants to celebrate and harness the lunar energy. *Moon water - Collecting water during the full moon (e.g. in a bowl) and using it for cleansing, manifestation, fertility, or other magical practices. *Moon gardens - Planting moon gardens that utilize flowers that bloom at night under the full moon. *Writing down intentions - Writing out goals, wishes, and intentions on paper and burning them under the full moon for manifestation. Let the luminous Hunter's Moon work its magic this Halloween, brightening the darkness with its mesmerizing autumnal light. 🍁 🎃 🌝 #spaandwellness #spaindustry #moonphases #halloween2023 #meditation #wellness
On Halloween, a day of tricks and treats, we watch kids run from house to house collecting goodies until their sacks are full. This year, trick-or-treaters will be able to enjoy their festivities under the light of an almost full Hunter’s Moon, adding to the mystery and intrigue of this already alluring holiday. So, in true traditional Chinese medicine fashion, we bring that intrigue back within. #tcmworld #bodyneverlies #fullmoon #halloween #intrigue #messages #mystery #signs #symptoms #trustyourbody #intuition #tcm #traditionalchinesemedicine https://lnkd.in/eDa5Wxv8
