If you didn’t cook…
If you didn’t host…
If today is about rest instead of a full table—
you’re doing exactly what your body and spirit need.
Rest is sacred.
Rest is healing.
Rest is enough.

NYC friends: this poor dog was almost on his freedom ride out of the pound when his foster didn't show up on him. He's now in danger of being put down. Do you have space in your home and heart to adopt him? ❤️
Also, lots of animals at this NYC shelter who need a home.

Mugwort is a plant of deep spiritual resonance. Traditionally used for protection, dreams, and intuition, it supports both the nervous system and the spirit.
