Spring Reset

Send us Fan MailWe’re sharing a real-time update from our home life and using it to talk about what we care about most: peaceful living, joyful rhythms, and daily habits that help us step away from stress, even when we only have a small window of capacity.We walk through what we’ve learned after a full year of backyard pool ownership, from winter freeze-protect settings to the reality of spring “pollen season” where everything looks dusted in yellow. Pool maintenance is not glamorous, but we’ve found an unexpected mental health win in it: skimming and cleaning can become a mindfulness practice. When we treat a necessary chore as contemplative time, we get a cleaner pool and a quieter mind, which is the kind of practical stress management that actually sticks.Then we head into the garden for a spring growing season check-in: building out a robust herb garden with basil, parsley, chives, sage, lavender, lemon balm, and a whole experiment of mixed mint varieties. We talk raised bed gardening with dahlias, tomatoes, and cucumbers, getting our irrigation system running again, and watching fruit trees and berry bushes wake up while birds try to steal the harvest. We also share our excitement about a GreenStalk vertical planter and the learning curve that comes with trying something new.If you’re craving a calmer pace and a few grounded ideas you can try today, press play.
