Loto Journal
Thoughtfully created blog content about somatic healing practices, nervous system self-regulation techniques, and faith-based spiritual practices, Loto Wellness Collective’s blog focuses on the art and science of rest and renewal, drawing inspiration from the life of Jesus, monastic wisdom, and modern science.
Through personal storytelling and letter writing, follow our Founder, Jennifer Axcell, as she travels the 🌎 globe as a digital nomad and Desert Mother, exploring cultural expressions of rest and self-care.
Reader’s Note: In the Loto Wellness Collective blog content, except for direct quotes, the pronouns often used for the One True God are They/Them in reference to the triune personhood of YHWH. When referencing Jesus specifically, the pronouns He/Him are used. In keeping with the canonical New Testament, God is also referred to as Father.
Seasons of Nature and Spiritual Growth: Fall 🍁
Fall is a season of abundance, a time when the fruits of our labor are ready to be harvested. Just as the farmers gather the crops they have nurtured throughout the year, as believers, we can also reflect on the fruits that the Holy Spirit is producing in our lives.
Seasons of Nature and Spiritual Growth: Summer 🌻
Summer in spiritual growth represents a time of spiritual dryness. It is a time of needing more spiritual food and Living Water to stay replenished.
Seasons of Nature and Spiritual Growth: Spring 🌱
Spring in spiritual growth represents a time of joy and glory after dormancy and hardships. It is a time of pruning, when God shapes and molds his people.
Seasons of Nature and Spiritual Growth: Winter ❄️
Winter in spiritual growth represents a time of introspection and examining our hearts and motives. A time of allowing God to make changes in us. A time for strengthening and maturing in Him.
