Summer solstice journaling
Whilst I wouldn’t describe myself as a Pagan, I do like to use the wheel of the year as part of my nature connection practice; it gives a pleasing rhythm to life and helps me celebrate each season for what it brings and teaches.
Midsummer, or Litha, is a celebration of the start of summer and the peak of the sun's power. It's a time of light, abundance, joy and energy. It’s a great time to go for a mindful walk in nature, noticing the sights, sounds, textures & scents of the season. Then, make a summery drink of your choice (I’m currently obsessed with Bird & Blend cold brew teas, not an ad!) and grab your journal for some seasonal reflections & self care.
Summer Solstice journal prompts
Pause for a moment of celebration - what are you proud of? What have been your 'peak moments' recently? How would you like to celebrate this?
What/who is bringing light into your life at present? What/who is making you light up inside? Where do you feel this in your body?
What could bring you joy this summer season? Think of people, places, experiences.
Start to plan how you can make space for this joy in your life this summer.
What is full of life in nature right now that you are drawn to? What do you like about it? Does this plant, tree, insect or animal have a message for you?
