Embracing Stillness: The Season of Deepening
October carries a quiet kind of magic. The leaves turn fire-colored, the nights grow longer, and there’s a collective slowing down as nature prepares for rest. This season invites us to deepen. Into stillness, into warmth, and into rituals that remind us of comfort and grounding.
At Ground & Grow, October is a month of replenishment. After the balancing energy of September, October is to soften, cocoon, and prepare the body and spirit for colder months. This energy is reflected in the treatment room and in the seasonal creations I’m sharing with you.
A quick reminder of this seasons specials (until October 31st).

🍯 Product Spotlight: The Baker's Pantry Wax Melt and Candles
The Baker’s Pantry opens with the nostalgic sweetness of pumpkin and brown sugar, wrapped in a swirl of cinnamon and clove. At its heart, creamy butter and warm vanilla fold together like a spiced confection, finishing with nutmeg’s subtle spice. Infused with natural essential oils including clove leaf, clove bud, juniper, eucalyptus, lemon, nutmeg, cypress, pine, and patchouli. This scent captures the essence of a cozy autumn kitchen. Like stepping into the warmth of home.
🌱 A Note of Stillness from the Garden
October's garden is quieter, yet still abundant with root vegetables, cabbages, and late harvest apples. This is the time to shift toward warm, grounding meals that support digestion and immunity. One of my favorites:
Roasted Carrot & Ginger Soup
~ 6 carrots, peeled + chopped
~ 1 onion, chopped
~ 2 tbsp olive oil
~ 1 inch fresh ginger, grated
~ 3–4 cups vegetable broth
~ Juice of 1 orange
~ Salt + pepper to taste
Roast carrots and onion until caramelized, then simmer with broth and ginger. Blend smooth, finish with orange juice. This soup is vibrant yet grounding. Warming the body, boosting circulation, and nourishing the skin from within.
Whether you’re soaking in a Harvest Glow treatment, lighting a Baker’s Pantry candle, or sipping on a warm bowl of soup, I hope you find comfort in the simple rituals that root us in this season of stillness.
Thank you for walking this journey with me.
