Today’s Magic: Today, as June’s heat ramps up, consider this:

“The Summer Solstice is less than three weeks away. In ancient traditions, June was a time to gather herbs at their magical peak and infuse daily life with small rituals of gratitude and joy. Try a morning herbal tea or take a barefoot moment on the earth—little things to root you in the season.”

Maybe pop a sprig of mint in your water today, or open a window and let a little sunrise in.
