Honoring the Pause, Embracing the Flow, and a Fresh Podcast Episode


Hello Reader.

As I write this, I’m watching the robins outside my office window. Their bright presence and morning song are a sure sign that the seasons are changing. Each time they bob for worms, I am reminded that the earth is reawakening . . . and in many ways, so am I.

After a season of softness, pause, and reflection, I find myself emerging once again. The winter solstice marked the last time I released an episode of Meet Me in Sacred Space, and it’s hard to believe that nearly an entire season has passed since then. While I have been quite busy playing with Clover (our American Eskimo puppy), holding space and stepping into ceremony in the Sanctuary, and working through a series of colds, this winter has been a time of deep stillness, quiet renewal, and inspiration . . . creating space for what is ready to bloom.

Today, I am so happy to reconnect with you and share that the podcast is back for another season! The new episode explores the Crystals for 2025—Copper and Star Cluster Aragonite—as well as the Crystal of the Month for March, Black Tourmaline. These stones bring powerful guidance for the year and the month ahead, offering support for grounding, resilience, and transformation. I invite you to listen and journey with me as we explore their wisdom and messages.

Last month, we also celebrated 15 years of Journey Jewels! I am deeply grateful for your presence on this journey, whether you’ve been here since the beginning or just found your way to this space. Your support means the world to me. This anniversary has been a beautiful reminder of why I create: to honor the sacred, to weave meaning into the tangible, and to share this path with kindred spirits like you.

Looking ahead, I’m excited to share that Spring Crystal Bundles (featuring the Crystals of the Month for April, May, and June) will be available later this week! Stay tuned for details. I’ll be sharing more very soon.

As we step into this new season together, I’d love to hear from you. What energies are you calling in this spring? Have you been working with a special crystal during the winter months? Hit reply and share . . . I always love hearing your reflections.

much love,
Lori


A little Clover update:

On Sunday, Clover turned five months old . . . it's amazing how fast she's growing! She’s full of curiosity, joy, and adventure, and it has been such a gift to watch her and Koda bond. Chris and I decided to create an Instagram account to share their journeys. If you’d like to follow along for some heartwarming pup moments and their latest adventures, you can find us here:
