What Autum Teaches Us About Life

A warm, eye-catching palette of reds, oranges, and browns. The taste of pumpkin spice in everything. The sound of crunching leaves beneath your feet. The chill breeze. Autumn truly is a beautiful season, and we believe it’s also here to teach us beautiful lessons.

The fall season is a great reminder of the value of change. We go from bright, buzzing summer to the dark, quiet, calm of winter. There is no better time of the year than autumn to reflect on change and letting go.

Change entails letting go of anything that no longer serves us – guilt for not doing enough, being too hard on yourself, or failing to take enough time to honor your feelings. We have to let go of all those things we've been holding onto emotionally in order to make room for new thoughts, feelings, people, experiences… whatever the next chapter brings!

We understand, however, that it’s not that easy. Maybe you're still working on letting go of something that happened in the past, or learning how to embrace change instead of resisting it. Maybe you've let go of some habits that have been holding you back, or maybe you're working on taking more risks in your life. Whatever the case may be, we hope this season reminds you of the beauty of letting go and gives you comfort that it is perfectly fine to do so. Letting go of what doesn't work for you, and learning to be okay with the fact that not everything is going to work out exactly how you want it to, can be incredibly freeing.

We all go through our seasons – celebrate them, take in their meaning, and live through them with care, always.

To letting go and embracing change,

Dee and Vee
