    A Moment of Peace

    Welcome back to Episode Three of the Seasons of Soul Podcast and it is time for something a little bit different.  The astrology has been astrologing over the last few weeks, and if you’re anything like me it’s been A LOT to process. In addition, there’s some significant forces at work in the world that are difficult to ignore, and then add in your day to day trials and tribulations and it’s no wonder some of us might be feeling out of sorts. This month is going to be all about wellness as nurture, flow rather than force, and enjoying the sunshine in those tiny moments of peace. On that note, this week, the Studio Laurenne family requested something calm and peaceful. A true break from the every day. Use it to dial out of a work day, fall asleep to, or enjoy as a family as you listen to a forest walk! Sending love from the studio and see you next week! In the midst of a crazy world, let Seasons of Soul bring some calm to the chaos.  Using the cycles and seasons of the natural world, as well as top tips and tricks to live a simple, intentional existence, let Els weave her magic and mayhem to bring some light relief to your busy days.  Recorded on location as a Studio Laurenne Production.  For all things Els and Studio Laurenne, head over to @studiolaurenne on Instagram or to Patreon patreon.com/TheSanctuarybyStudioLaurenne
