Soul Recipe by Sophie Wolf
October arrives as a season of renewal, urging us to reset our relationships and rediscover the truth of who we are.
It guides us to break free from old patterns and grow into higher expressions of love, peace, and authentic confidence. This month asks us to walk the delicate balance between integrity and boundaries, while learning to embrace difficult conversations—with others and ourselves.
Resistance has no place here. In this season, we must surrender our need for control and release the urge to overanalyze. It's a time for deeper honesty. Confrontation need not be a battlefield; perhaps October is teaching us that confrontation can be a doorway to meaningful discussion.
This month, we are transforming, liberating our feelings, shifting the dynamics of our relationships, thoughts, and communication. We are invited to be gentler, more authentic, and to welcome challenges with grace, knowing they are essential to the human journey.
By making space for what arises, we draw closer to a softer experience of life, one where things aren't just black or white, but a spectrum of rich, varied shades.
October invites us to reacquaint ourselves with our bodies in the most sacred, poetic way — by breathing deeply, anointing our skin with reverence, and honoring the passage of time within this magnificent temple.
The Soul Recipe for October is to listen—deeply—to our bodies. Our bodies are the oracles of our truth. Where do we feel stuck? Where do we need to breathe deeper? What happens when, instead of chasing the clock, we allow ourselves to relax? What if this month, we let our bodies take the lead, guiding us toward what we need to release and where we need to heal?
1. Soul: Morning Intention Ceremony
Begin each day by lighting a candle or Incense Sticks and sitting in quiet reflection. Ask yourself: What does my soul need today? Set an intention for the day that aligns with this inner wisdom, and write it down. This simple ritual invites deep listening and connection to your true essence, allowing your soul to guide you throughout the day. Use Love Letters for inspiration.
2. Body: Sacred Self-Anointment
Each evening, take time to honor your body. Use a nourishing oil, lotion or cream, and as you anoint your skin, repeat affirmations of love and gratitude for your body’s strength and beauty. Breathe deeply, tune in to areas of tension, and give them extra care. This ritual reconnects you to your physical being and helps release any stress or stagnation.
3. Mind: Reflection and Release Journaling
At the end of each day, spend 10 minutes journaling about any thoughts, emotions, or challenges you faced. Write freely without judgment, allowing your mind to pour out its clutter. Close the ritual by writing one thing you're grateful for and one thing you're ready to release. This helps cleanse the mind and create space for clarity and peace. Try a spritz of Sacred Mist to uplift your aura.
