Mabon Body ￨ Skin You're In

As the air starts to cool, it's tempting to pile on the layers and forget that we live in a body for a while. Without the pressure of donning a swimsuit, many of us disconnect from our bodies to avoid (the sometimes complex) relationship we have with our physical form. But what if the colder months actually offer an opportunity to nurture a new relationship with the skin we're in? Perhaps we can use this time to explore what we, as individuals, want from our bodies away from the gaze of others. Rather than focusing our energy on arbitrary scale numbers or clothing tags, we instead shift our focus to how our bodies feel under our own hands. How much muscle feels good to you? How much softness do you prefer? Forget what other like, it's your body, what do you like? As we stroll through the forest, imagine an autumn connecting with your sacred vessel, it's not too late to embrace the skin you're in. What am I reading?The Crescent Tearoom by Stacy Sivinskihttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9781668058398Bohemian Magick: Witchcraft and Secret Spells to Electrify Your Life by Veronica Varlowhttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9780063027381https://bookshop.org/shop/witchywomanwalkingWhat am I playing on repeat?Zombie by the CranberriesWhat's for dinner?Vegetarian Sweet Potato ChiliIngredients:1-2 tablespoons olive oil2-3 sweet potatoes1 onionGarlic (as much as you like)2 1/2 cups vegetable broth1 can diced tomatoes1 can black beans1 can chick peas1 cup frozen corn2-3 cups chopped spinachCumin Chili pepperTurmericSalt and pepper (season to taste)2 cups cooked quinoaInstructions: Drizzle olive oil in soup pot, sauté onion until translucent, add garlic, sauté until fragrant.
