In my community program, I host a seasonal workshop every 90 days to reflect on and rebuild our intentions and goals. My clients are so gratuitous in welcoming me to play with various metaphors and embodied practices that I feel fit that current season and moment.
In our last one, I had just returned from the Wilding Women retreat and noticed the growth in my home garden after five days away. I used the metaphor of mid-summer gardening to guide our reflection and planning. We focused on what in our lives and work needs weeding, watering, harvesting, or pruning as we plan for the second half of 2024.
You’ll have an opportunity to reflect on your current 2024 metaphorical garden and your intentions for the year. You’ll identify where to weed, prune, water, and harvest as it relates to the first half of the year. Then do some visioning for the second half of the year and create a list of embodied action steps you can take in these next months.
