The Autumn Quarterly Newsletter
Hey There! Hi! I am Carla, from Pure Life Healing.
Finally having the opportunity to reach out and say hello to such an amazing community. Welcome to my new subscribers. I would like to thank all those for following me and supporting my work in wellness. My goal every quarter is to provide a newsletter to share insights and inspirations to help guide and support your wellness journey.
Preparation, Transition and Release
Summer is slowly, gently, as if hesitating at the threshold, winding down and releasing softly. Autumn is just around the corner.
The name "Autumn" is derived from the Latin word "autumnus," which refers to the season of fall.
The term has its roots in ancient agricultural practices, where it signified the time of harvest and the transition from the warmth of summer to the chill of winter.
I personally believe that it's a special time where the buzz of back to school energy is present. Summer allowed us to relax, Autumn brings potent creative energy and stronger motivation, inviting inner knowing .
Autumn whispers the wisdom of release. In the forest, the trees soften, surrendering their leaves to the wind. What was once vibrantly green and blossoming is now returning gently to the earth, enriching the soil, nourishing the unseen life beneath the canopy. To make space for new growth, the trees must let go. Growth and evolution are the gifts of release.
It's a reminder to live intentionally with the season. September's energy means using the seasonal shift to realign goals, habits, and mindset for the year's final stretch. For me, September is a fresh start, a chance to become more creative, releasing old energy and embracing new opportunities.
Are you adopting new strategies? What does that look like for you?
Take the opportunity to adopt new strategies and habits.
This season invites contemplation, simplicity, and letting go; not just of material things, attachments, expectations, and old patterns that no
longer serve us. Autumn's quality of letting go reflects the Taoist concept of ‘Wu Wei,’ or effortless action, which is a reflection of autumn's quality of letting go. The practice of allowing things to fall away naturally without resistance encourages a meditative flow that aligns with deep connection to the seasonal rhythm.
Search for tools and practices to steady you through this season of preparation, transistion and release.
"Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree."
Emily Bronte
What autumn practices will you adopt in your every day?
Creating new patterns and habits for the Autumn season is a wonderful way to add new practices.
Keeping Active - Dont't allow the weather or the shorter days to upset your exercise practice. Embracing the cooler weather purchasing new gear to stay warm. Maybe becoming a mall walker early in the morning. Going to a zumba class or adopting yoga. Dance in your living room! Create a diary of new ways of allowing movement.
2.Seek out the Sun - Take a walk during peak daylight hours, especially around noon when natural light levels are highest. Even on cloudy days, outdoor light is significantly stronger than typical indoor lighting. Look up and be mindful of the blue sky.
3.Nourish -When we eat foods rich in the colors of the season - we are absorbing the freshest, most nutrient dense offering of Mother Earth. In Autumn seek out: pumpkin, zucchini, dark leafy greens, and cook up hearty soups and stews. Enjoy visiting the local farmers market for super fresh produce, or meal prep and plan for your meals ahead of time.
4. Write it Down - Autumn is a natural time for reflection, and journaling is an excellent tool for observing habits, moods and thoughts. It's not that difficult, I promise you! Simply write about your day, the moment, or current feelings or thoughts. I encourage pen to paper, we actually gain a much deeper understanding of how we are managing. You may notice patterns in your writing, and a better sense of what activities positively support you and your energy levels.
5.Gratitude Practice - A moment to acknowledge the goodness in life. To connect to something larger than ourselves. Five minute daily practice of gratitude can increase our long-term wellbeing by more than 10%. It can be magical!
My husband and I try to do this exercise where we tell each other what we are grateful for and keep it going until one is finally done! Avoid becoming competitive during the exercise, but it can be very revealing what the other person is grateful for.
Essential Oil Corner
Here is an idea for a fresh essential oil diffuser blend that I created for the Autumn Equinox. It will bring the scent and softness of the last blooms of the season and bring a grounding essence to your space that can shift anyone's mood.

As the fall season inspires new beginnings, an inner knowing, reset, and resilience through personal growth, letting go, and embracing creation energy.
Inviting us to pause, consider what is resonating, and align our lives to create new daily rituals and be open to learning new ways of being. How vital it is to embrace the present. Be open to learn and enjoy nature, that piece of music, great read or podcast. As always I really wanted to connect with all of you and how I can assist you on your spiritual journey.
What We’re Up To
I have been contemplating on many initiatives. However,
the summer became a quiet and reflective. I had many plans and they just were postponed for good reason. The law of resonance - understanding that it just didn't have any wings to fly in any direction; An inner knowing it wasn't time just yet.
September has come up with so many initiatives that I am working on.
Stay tuned to a long awaited ask adding Substack as a vehicle to host my Blogs, publishing a library of Meditations and Podcasts. Coming later this fall!
If you would like to be featured as a guest please reach out to get you on the list.
