the joys of autumn

This is a picture of me after harvesting my first rhizome in a subtle herbalism class.

​Ahh, Autumn...  Time to send energy into the earth through our roots. We have had so many new experiences throughout this year. It is time to enjoy the rewards of our growth, the bounty of our efforts and the sweetness of life. Time to slow down, focus inward, enjoy our home and our loved ones as the temperature cools and daylight wanes.
