Way of Elmod

Dare to care for yourself

If you keep letting fear stop your voice and actions, you will forever spiral into self-doubt and more chaos. Rather than letting fear dictate, listen to it. It has wisdom to communicate. Give the fear space to be seen and understood. Create a foundation on Truth and allow yourself to correct course. Without this, you are building your life on Sand. 

This is the Rock and foundation of the river. From there, let the currents of your river be formed from values that match where you feel called to flow. I am forming my river from Seasonal Living, Regenerative Community, Wild Self and Radical Integrity. Find your own, but choose them yourself. Without the currents, the water flows everywhere, with no direction. 

To feel deeply aligned with the seasons, you have to start doing the work. Dig in the soil. Walk in the woods. Feel the raw sensation of the cold northern wind on your skin. Bathe in the river. Celebrate the shift of the seasons. Stop being inside all the time and go OUT.

To regenerate yourself and a community, you have to take care of yourself FIRST. Eat whole food. Exercise. Sleep well. Ice-bath. Do sauna. Open up the body and let go of tensions. Take many small steps and integrate it into your body. Then extend this outwards with a community.

Your heart yearns to open up from all the years of closeness. Your inner wild self is inside a cage and only wants to feel free. To open up the heart, you have to open up the body's tensions and allow your heart to express its own truth. Dare to be wild. Run barefoot in the forest. Dance naked around the roaring fire. Speak what burns inside you.

Be radical with your integrity. Set healthy boundaries so that you protect your energy and capacity. Align your thoughts, words, and actions so they represent who you feel like becoming.

Celebration of the Seasons

I know you forgot the rhythm. I did too. Anchor your life with gratitude and make it your baseline. Mark the turning by celebrating the shifts of the seasons. Follow the Wheel Of The Year and honor the 8 Sabbaths. Cycle with the Earth: From the dark and cold winter solstice, flowing towards the equinox of spring, peaking at the bright and warm summer solstice, falling down towards the equinox of fall and returning once again back to winter solstice. This is the rhythm of the seasons. Live inside them, and feel how it heals your relationship to yourself and Mother Earth.

The Next Turning: Litha (Midsummer)

Slørstad | 21st of June 2026 | 14:00 - 22:00

Litha marks the peak of summer where the day is at its longest and night at its shortest. At my collective we celebrate it with having an open day for both children and adults. Playing games, marking the turning with rituals that grounds us with gratitude and a connection to the garden, having a long table with abundance of food and dancing together with music.

The Rune of the Seasons

I am carving a rune for each turning of the seasons. For anyone who forgotten the rhythm and feels called to connect back to it. It will be ready before Litha.

The Runes

I am carving these runes to find my own way. Written for my younger self, but open to all who needs to remember.
