3 Priorities ￨ Directed Energy

Have you ever felt like life was one long to-do list? Do you scramble from one activity to the next without taking a breath in between? Do you long for a life of presence and intention? There's no denying that modern life is full of distractions, responsibilities, and expectations, but sometimes we're simply just trying to do too much!

As we listen to the summer morning sounds, consider the "big rocks" in your life, with an intentional shift in focus you can create space for more magic to shine through. Support the Show & Stay Connected 🌙 Sign-up Monthly Newsletter🔥 Join the Hearth📚 My Bookshop.org Page☕ My Buymeacoffee Site📪 [email protected] am I reading?Strangers by Belle Burdenhttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9780593733318A Confluence of Witches edited by Casey Zabalahttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9781578638451The Black Bird Oracle Deck by Deborah Harkness, Hester Aspland (Illustrator)https://bookshop.org/a/111301/9780593976227What’s playing on repeat?World on Fire  by Dolly Parton  https://imaginationlibrary.com/What’s for dinner?Late Summer Vegetable SoupIngredients:2 tablespoons olive oil1 medium yellow onion, diced2 carrots, sliced2 celery stalks, sliced2 cloves garlic, minced3 medium ripe tomatoes, chopped2 cups fresh sweet corn kernels2 medium zucchini, diced4 cups vegetable or chicken broth1 cup green beans, choppedSalt and black pepper to tasteFresh basil leaves for garnish Instructions:Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.Add the onion, carrots, and celery.
