❤️🔥YOUR BODY IS THE BUSINESS
Unstructured Play Can Reduce Stress
It's easy to trade silliness and unstructured playtime as immature and replace it with seriousness. Play for adults is something we've kind of shamed out of your system both personally and as a society.
However, research shows that adults who engage in playful activities have more resilience to stress, can deal with challenges better, and experience more positive emotions.
Unstructured play can look like actually swinging on swings at the park, taking the scenic route, or doing anything just for the sheer pleasure of doing it.

🎴PULL A CARD, MAKE A MOVE
Excitement for What's Coming
OK, Universe, I see you. Before I sat down to write this email, I posted the weekly focus update in the Cosmic Collective. It was all about expecting magick, rather than waiting for it to appear. And now, I draw the 9 of Wands!
As we approach the Full Moon tomorrow, Wed. July 29th, it's the perfect time for a final push toward your goals & the moon is helping with that. This card is all about honoring that final push and optimistically looking forward to what's coming. The card of resilience, the 9 of Wands reminds us that we have a fire in our bellies and never-ending channels of creativity within reach.
Most of the time, our limitations are of our own creation.

🪄 THE WOO HAS RECEIPTS
"Feel-Good" Chemicals that are Good For You
You know I'm a huge fan of energy healing through Reiki, but what if play is also an energy healer? When we play, it stimulates new neural connections and helps improve cognitive function. And while we focus on these great effects for kids, it's important to remember that playtime can also help us do the same thing.
PLUS, when we play, we get a boost of dopamine, the "feel-good" neurotransmitter that's tied to our sense of reward and pleasure. Dopamine can also help us relieve stress, anxiety, and the weight of the world.

🌙COSMIC CORNER
The Full Moon is Bringing Us Together
Our Full Moon (Wed., July 29th) is in Aquarius and is centering on personal power, community collaboration, and connection with others. The lunar nodes just shifted to the Aquarius-Leo axis, bringing the vibes of shared solutions and group collaboration to our personal and professional lives.
This week, tap into the supportive, empowering people around you. How can they help you, and how can you help them, grow together?
Get ready for a confidence boost and more wisdom, too!
