A SOFT SPRING LETTER - WHEN THE RHYTHM EBBS

This past month I spent some time traveling – stepping out of my usual rhythm and into something more open, spacious and alive. Going with the flow – even in unexpected situations – really brought me back to what is actually important in life. And in addition, I dug up some new inspiration along the way.
And yet, alongside that lightness, I also felt a deeper layer present underneath. A quiet confrontation with where I am, and where I feel called to go. Not as a problem, but as something asking to be felt with more honesty.
March and the realness of growth.
This month carried the energy of initiation – a sense that something new wanted to begin. Alltough, what
I learned during this month is that beginning doesn’t mean arriving. You can feel deeply in tune with a direction, and still not know how to walk the path. The in-between can feel overwhelming with all its infinite possibilities. But what became clear to me is that you’re never lost. You’ve just outgrown what was, while the next step hasn’t fully revealed itself yet. There can be pressure, doubt, even the feeling that you should be further along than you are. But creation is rarely effortless in the way we imagine. It's nature.
Every new beginning is uncomfortable and comes with its own growing pains. Even birth – the most natural beginning, is the most fruitful, yet painful experience. It can be intense, uncomfortable, and deeply transformative. This is not failure. This is growth taking place beneath the surface. Spring isn’t here to rush you into bloom – it asks you to grow a healthy stem first to become the most beautiful flower.
April breathes life into form.
This movement continues in April, but will change shape during the month. What was initiated now asks to become real – it manifests. There is a natural pull to move forward, to build, to create – but also a quiet check underneath: does this truly align? Not everything that felt right in the moment of initiation will stay, and that’s part of the process. This month invites you to refine, to adjust, to let go of what doesn’t hold, so that what does can actually grow into something stable. It’s not about doing more, but about taking inspired action toward what feels true – and allowing that to take shape in its own time. This is the time where your ideas finally find ground.
So, you’re not behind. You’re not missing anything. You’re in the part of the process where things are forming. And along the way, be assured that direction will deepen, choices will become clearer, and your core strengthens. Spring will make you grow. Let yourself move with that. You don’t need to have it all figured out to be exactly where you’re meant to be. Just start – especially if your not in bloom yet
Gathered for April...
A small practice for you
Pause for a moment and ask yourself:
What feels true for me right now?
What feels like pressure, and what feels like direction?
Write down one thing you want to move towards, and one thing you’re ready to release. No action needed – just awareness
"Energy is neither created nor destroyed. It just changes shape."
– Albert Einstein
