Fall Reflections: A Mindfulness Exercise for the Season of Change

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!


That unmistakable shift in the air signals more than just the
turning of seasons—it touches something deeper within us. The
angle of sunlight, the rustle of leaves, the crisp blue sky—all
converge to create what I call that inescapable fall feeling.


In this episode, I guide you through a simple mindfulness
exercise to reflect on the past year—what was hard, what came
easily, what surprised you, what sparked curiosity, and what
amazed you. This practice offers a new vantage point for
self-reflection and reveals insights that might otherwise remain
hidden.


I also share a reading from my book on fall’s unique duality—how
it feels like both an ending and a beginning, holding space for
nostalgia and new possibilities. Remember how as children, fall
brought excitement and uncertainty in equal measure? That wisdom
is still available to us.


So, as you feel that unmistakable fall feeling, consider it an
invitation to slow down, embrace your inner child, and fully
inhabit the present moment—with your favorite sweater, a good
book, and permission to simply be.
