Are you using meditation to manage anxiety, but still feel disconnected or overwhelmed?

This conversation with artist and ritualist Day explores how meditation alone may not be enough to meet the intensity of our mental health needs — especially during major life transitions. Learn how ritual, connection to nature, and intentional rest can support emotional resilience in ways meditation can’t always reach.

You’ll discover:

- Why ritual is often the missing link in a meditation practice that's failing to soothe anxiety.

- How to create nature-inspired rituals that help you slow down and reconnect with your inner self.

- The real reason we struggle with transitions and how to build meaningful containers for healing.

Listen now to uncover a grounded, nature-connected approach to managing anxiety with more clarity, compassion, and resilience.
