The art of continuing

The end of January marks a threshold - a sacred pause to honour the version of you that you are leaving behind, and the one you are becoming.

With the last chapter of our Healing Garden campaign, the butterfly unfurls its wings: teaching us self-care isn’t a single month, but something we learn, nurture, and practice beyond January.

Wherever your year carries you next, we’re sharing this gentle ode to the Art of Continuing. A reminder that healing and growth is a place you can return to time and time again through small acts of self-care, beauty and intention. Feel free to dip into it any time that you need a little more healing magic in the months to come.

Honour your mornings 

Beginnings don't always need to be grand, they can arrive in tiny moments and be honoured in simple ways. Feed positivity into your mornings by rising slowly with the light. Pause to notice and be grateful for the simple moments that are woven into your routine - getting dressed, creating intentional time for your skincare, savouring the first sip of coffee or ray of sunlight on your windowsill. No matter where you are in the year, finding little moments of mindfulness and magic in the mornings allows you to honour nature, yourself, and the rhythms of the season. A touchpoint you can return to and ground in, time and time again. 

The spirit of our butterfly design 

For new beginnings big and small, butterflies remind us that transformation doesn't rush - it unfolds in its own time. Painted in dreamy blues, silvers and golds, in creating this design Elizabeth was inspired by the quiet, subtle ways nature encourages patience, growth, and gentle change. Whether you weave it into your daily routine or carry it with you on your travels, every time you see a butterfly, let it inspire you to honour your own journey.

For Gratitude & Grounding: The Butterfly Breath 

Place a hand on your heart and one on your belly.
Inhale gently.
Exhale twice as long.

Root yourself in a moment of gratitude, be it for something big and small - and let it unfurl like the wings of the butterfly. 

Tend to your inner voice with affirmations 

When you find yourself in a challenging moment, affirmations are a powerful way to steady the nervous system. Select phrases that feel natural, honest and nurturing - remember, you can change affirmations any time throughout the year. Here are a few ideas for affirmations to bring a moment of softness and gentle grounding when needed: 

I am allowed to move gently.
Healing is not in a hurry.
I welcome rest as part of my strength.
I honor my rhythms.
I hold space for my creativity and wonder.

Thank you for joining us in the Healing Garden this January - we hope it’s brought you a little lightness, joy and beauty that will continue into the year ahead!

Love,
Elizabeth Scarlett x
