Greater calm and well-being await with this soothing self-care practice that’s as easy as looking up at the night sky.

As our ancestors knew, being guided by the phases of the moon can lead us to a sense of peace, harmony and connectedness to the universe. In this uplifting production, learn how to bring this ancient mystical practice to your own life to soothe your spirit from modern-day stresses.

As renowned astrology writer Valerie Tejeda explains, each lunar phase is a cosmic guide for rebalancing our energies and attuning to our deepest needs. The unique power of each phase offers new opportunities for self-care, so we can refill ourselves when we feel depleted. Don’t miss this powerful invitation to reconnect with the unseen forces all around us - and with our own most vital needs.

Dear Listener,

Why should you listen to this story now?
"So many people move through life putting their needs on the back burner, not making the time to take care of themselves or even believing they are worthy to do so. You might’ve heard of the term 'self-care.' It’s a big buzzword these days, but self-care is so much more than a hashtag on social media or a one-and-done day at a spa. At its core it’s about prioritizing ourselves, loving and respecting ourselves, and giving ourselves permission to put our needs first. Self-care is not an indulgence; it’s essential for our well-being. And the good news is there’s an ancient practice that can help us stay on top of our self-care—attuning to the moon’s cycle. When we align with the lunar phases and home in on the energy that each phase represents, it can act as a cosmic guide for self-care and give our practice an extra dose of magic. Just like the moon, our lives also wax and wane. But with self-care we are reclaiming our power and reminding ourselves that we are always allowed to have our peace." –- Valerie Tejeda, writer and performer of Self Care by the Moon

I will be keeping this book! It’s rich with helpful information about each moon phase, with particular tools to connect with the cosmos and oneself. I’m looking forward to re-listening, taking notes and finding more resources/books written by this author.

Wonderful resource and very through, yet concise and compassionate

There's a lot of self-care practices in "Self Care by the Moon" that work something like a proverb, where the longer you practice them the more you get out of them. They work well for beginners who have never heard of or tried any meditations at all, and they work well for seasoned yogis too. Ultimately, the self-care practices found in these pages have ancient roots with modern dressings; most of them are backed by modern science in one form or fashion as well.

What I found most unique about "Self Care by the Moon" was the lunar lens through which these meditations and self-care practices are viewed. But more importantly, I appreciated the overarching message of empowerment and encouragement.

The age of science has brought us a seemingly unending string of technological marvels, and also ever-increasing levels of complexity. The world we now inhabit can at times be difficult to navigate and quite overwhelming. Books like "Self Care by the Moon" help to remind us it's okay... in fact it's even GOOD... to press pause on life and focus on taking care of ourselves.

Why? The author puts it well: "You can't pour from an empty cup."

One of those reads that can benefit everyone

This was such a great introduction to living by the lunar cycle with self-care! My only thing is I wish I could save these meditations to a playlist because they are so good and relaxing. I could listen to Valerie read and lead meditations all day! I hear there is a second book coming next year and I will be listening.

A beautiful listen about lunar living

I’ve always longed for some kind of deeper connection with the moon but didn’t know where to start. Many other books were either over or underwhelming. This one hit the spot! Excellent explanation of the moon phases and examples of how to relate self care practices to that specific phase. I can’t wait to get started!

PERFECT Guide to self-care connectedness

I bought this book for a cozy fall read and it was exactly that. Very calming with lots of great information on lunar cycles and moon astrology. What I loved the most was being reminded to take care myself. I needed that. Thank you Valerie Tejeda for the inspiration!

Beautiful! What a great way to start a new season🙏🏽
