Grounding Practices for a Joyful Season Ahead

As the holiday season approaches, it’s easy to get swept up in the rush. In this episode of The Giving Garden Podcast, we turn to the Brujas of Brooklyn, Dr. Griselda Rodriguez-Solomon and Dr. Miguelina Rodriguez, for grounding wisdom that reminds us joy itself can be a radical act of resistance. Known for their powerful work in ancestral healing, spirituality, and community wellness, the Brujas share practices that help us root ourselves in the present, care for our emotional landscapes, and reclaim joy even in the face of seasonal stress and societal pressures. Through daily rituals and collective care, they invite us to embrace joy not as an afterthought, but as a source of strength and a way to resist the forces that pull us away from ourselves. Whether you’re preparing for busy gatherings, navigating emotional transitions, or simply seeking more intentional moments in your day, this conversation offers tools to ground, nurture, and celebrate your spirit. Tune in and discover how grounding and joy can become powerful practices for thriving during the season ahead. To learn more about The Giving Garden, visit Loyalty Program | Dr. Hauschka
