We are held between
summer’s fatigue
and summer’s fire,
there has been a blooming
and a ripening,
and now a harvesting and a fading,
as the time comes
to turn the page.

This Toolkit for Sacred Pauses, also known as the "Take a Break Resource Kit" was compiled for you by Molly at Brigid's Grove with help from the Creative Spirit Circle .

Note: these resources are being shared via my Patreon page and will revert from “public” back to “private” on September 1, so make sure to explore them during August.

We hope you enjoy this collection and come back to dip into the resources repeatedly through the Lammas season.

May you be inspired by some time in cauldron,
may you be inspired by time with yourself,
may you be inspired by that which surrounds you,
connected to Goddess,
connected to the earth,
connected to the animals, plants,
the wisdom of the wind,
the song of branches,
and the symphony
of river, stone,
leaf, and breath.

Take it to the Cauldron and listen to the deep within.
