The moon has been waiting for you.

What if you saw the moon not as an object in the sky but as a companion through the journey of midlife and beyond?

Moon Pause invites you into relationship-with the moon, with the rhythms of your changing body, and with the wisdom you've gathered through decades of living. Using the four primary lunar phases as monthly touchpoints, this field guide offers practices for rest, reflection, pleasure, and returning to yourself.

Each moon phase offers a garden of gentle practices to nourish your connection with yourself and the world around you. These include:
Meeting the Moon: guidance for finding the moon in the sky during each phase
The Invitation: an invitation to explore and feel the energy of each phase and discover new ways of thinking about rest, growth, wholeness, and wisdom
Reflective prompts: questions to reflect on during each phase, through journaling, art, or simply by being
Meeting Myself: a practice for deepening your relation ship with yourself
The Pleasure Practice: an experience to reconnect with your beautiful body
Moon Magic: a practice to develop kinship and connection with the moon
The Rest Ritual: a short meditation to return to yourself

Born from the author's journey through cancer and menopause, this book offers new ways of thinking about rest, growth, wholeness, and aging - grounded in kinship with the natural world and alive with enchantment.

Whether you've tracked lunar cycles for years or barely notice the moon's changing face, Moon Pause invites you to look up, pause, and rediscover who you are beneath all the doing.
