Fall Books & a Podcast

Hello!

It is Sunday, November 6, 2022 and it’s 76 degrees in Pittsburgh. The clouds rolled in and it has just begun to rain.

In October, I thoroughly enjoyed reading these two books by Paula Brackston. I found them to be perfect for Halloween time! Highly recommend if you like witchery, magic, inspiration, healing balms, time travel, and lots of other witchy themes. I’m still thinking about one of the chapters in The Return of the Witch that is set in the Sahara Desert. It has an empowering message that I’ve written about numerous times in my journal.

The Women of Chateau Lafayette is currently on my nightstand and I’ve read about 1/3 of it so far. It’s set in three separate time periods that alternate back and forth - all set in Historical Fiction around the place and evolution of the Chateau Lafayatte and the women that make it so.

The Thrive Together Network podcast is one of my favorites to listen to while at the gym. I particularly liked listening to the most recent episode “How to be an Empowered Artist” with some thoughtful suggestions on spending time with yourself, by yourself and getting clear on guiding values and goals.

To close, here are some topics I’ve been writing about in my journal of late. The prompts are three headings and then I make a list under each.

Gratitude - what am I thankful for today?

Release - what can I release that is no longer serving me?

Manifestations - imagining all the possibilities
