This month’s Soft Girl Meditation is designed to help you gently transition from the high energy of summer into the grounding balance of fall. Through breath, stillness, and mindful awareness, this practice invites you to release what no longer serves you, restore your sense of ease, and reconnect with your inner rhythm. Tune in whenever you need a reset and allow yourself to soften into the season.

As we begin to flow into the fall season and prepare to take on more structure and responsibilities - we want to check in to make sure we’re aware of the root of our “Why” - Enjoy this self-exploration curated by our lovely Erin Wiley to help you create a baseline as we navigate shifts and changes ❤️

This Journaling Practice was curated by our lovely Erin Wiley and is designed to help you empower your inner critic to be more gentle and loving to yourself. Grab your pen and paper and nourish that inner critic, and your inner child.

Welcome to the  First Born Daughters Colletive — where softness is sacred.
This meditation was created with love to support your journey through Soft Girl July — a month of leaning into our natural creativity, embracing our soft strength , and allowing ourselves to experience the fullness of joy.

Take this time to slow down, breathe deep, and return home to you.
🎧 Find a quiet space, grab your journal or simply sit in stillness, and allow this moment to nourish your soul.
