What You Need to Know About the Autumnal Equinox // Seasonal Sessions

  • Summary

  • No matter what season it is, now being summer into fall, the shifting of the seasons provides an opportunity and an external trigger for us to reflect internally. I had my dear friend Rachael from Our Infinite Nature back on the show to help us navigate the upcoming season. If you've been following me, you know how magical she is—she’s my go-to for everything seasonal and spiritual. We’ve been doing these seasonal check-ins, and this episode is all about celebrating the fall equinox.Let’s chat about what’s going down this fall, not just with nature, but with us too. Time to chill, think things over, and gather what we've got. It’s time to slow down, reflect, and, of course, harvest.In this episode, we learn:[05:47] Nature rituals and Rachael’s parenting[08:05] The gift of a bird's nest[14:55] Wind River Chimes[16:38] Espoma Organic[18:56] How are our gardens, lawns, forests, and local ecosystems doing in the fall?[21:44] Death as part of nature's cycle[28:27] How to balance productivity and rest in the fall[29:14] How to balance elements of fire, water, and air[30:49] How Libra season correlates with the fall equinox[35:10] Why we should embrace the changes of eclipse season[37:01] Some personal practices to do this fall equinox[42:27] How do the elements of each season relate to our personal growth?[44:25] Meditation for the fall equinox[56:04] Connect with RachaelMentioned in our conversation:Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear, book by Elizabeth GilbertGrowing Joy Ep 242: Why You Should Care About the Summer SolsticeGrowing Joy Ep 229: Why You Should Care About the Spring EquinoxFor Rachael's insights on how to embrace the new season's energies,check out the full show notes and blog here!Follow Rachael:WebsiteInstagramTikTokFacebookYouTubeThank you to our episode sponsors:Wind River ChimesVisit windriverchimes.com and use code GROWINGJOY to receive free engraving on your chosen wind chimes.Espoma OrganicVisit espoma.com to find your local Espoma dealer or check my Amazon storefront.Follow Maria and Growing Joy:Order my book: Growing Joy: The Plant Lover's Guide to Cultivating Happiness (and Plants) by Maria Failla, Illustrated by Samantha LeungJoin the Bloom and Grow Garden Party Community Platform & App AKA the plantiest and kindest corner of the internet!
