Summer Intentions:Welcoming Expansion, Joy, and Connection

Summer has a rhythm all its own—a season of expansion, vitality, and pure enjoyment. The days are longer, the light feels warmer, and the energy around us is vibrant and

alive. Nature is in full bloom, and we’re invited to bloom alongside it.

This season encourages us to slow down and savor, to be present in the moment, to move our bodies, breathe deeply, and connect more intentionally—with ourselves, with others, and with the world around us.

As we step into this lively and luminous season, why not weave the theme of Adventure and Exploration into your summer intentions. Here are a few suggested ideas you might consider:

• Try Something New: Let this be the summer you say yes to something unfamiliar. Whether it’s a road trip, a new class, or simply taking a different route on your daily walk, stepping outside your comfort zone is a powerful way to grow.

• Get Outside: Summer is nature’s invitation to reconnect. Make time for hikes, beach days, forest strolls, or backyard picnics. The more we engage with the natural world, the more grounded and alive we feel.

• Leave Room for Spontaneity: Not everything has to be planned. Let yourself be surprised. Say yes to a last-minute outing, dance in the rain, or follow a whim. Some of the most joyful memories are made in the unplanned moments.

As you move through this season, remember: summer isn’t just a time—it’s a feeling. Let it energize you, stretch you, and soften you. Set intentions that feel good in your body and true to your heart. You don’t have to do everything—just what brings you alive. Drop me a line with one of your intentions.

Here’s to a season of warmth, wonder, and well-being.

With heart,
