9. October mini-series: The Truth about October
from Little Bottles, Big Shifts: ADHD Wellness Podcast for Women · host Imelda Aspinall
Welcome to Spooky Shifts! 🍂 This October mini-series dives into the witchy, soulful side of the season — Samhain, Halloween, witches, and what all this has to do with ADHD brains, essential oils, and how we ride the wave of seasonal change. In this first episode, we explores why October feels so charged — that mysterious “in-between” energy that makes the veil feel thinner, our emotions sharper, and our routines… a little more wobbly. You’ll learn: ✨ The ancient Celtic roots of Samhain (pronounced SOW-in or SAH-win) and why we still feel its energy today 🌀 How seasonal change affects ADHD brains (and why clocks changing feels like jetlag!) 🌲 The element of Aether — the “space between” — and how it mirrors ADHD energy 🌿 Essential oils for spooky season: Shinrin-Yoku, Copaiba, and Cedarwood 📝 A calming reflection + journal prompt to help you reconnect with your body and your breath “The more you treat this life as a spiritual journey, the easier it becomes. Don’t live your life on hard mode!” Mentioned in this episode: dōTERRA Shinrin-Yoku (Forest Bathing Blend) dōTERRA Copaiba dōTERRA Cedarwood
