I'm thrilled to share with you all the insights I've gained over my lifelong journey learning from the moon's cycles and how its energies have enhanced my own productivity and well-being. On this episode, I'll outline the gifts that each lunar phase offers - from using introspective New Moons to set intentions to tapping into the emotionally charged Full Moons to release what's no longer serving you. I'll also discuss ancient practices passed down from my farmer grandparents like planting according to the phases to maximise growth. Through sharing my experiences and wisdom, my hope is that listeners can discover how observing the moon each month creates regular opportunities for reflection, growth and new beginnings in tune with nature's rhythms.
