Loto Journal
An evolving exploration of consciousness, spirituality, relationship, and what it means to flourish together.
Through personal storytelling and curious inquiry, we explore consciousness and the Self, contemplative spirituality and mysticism, psychology and somatic healing, creativity and relationship, and our connection with nature and the living world. Along the way, our Founder, Jennifer, shares letters from her travels as a digital nomad, exploring the people, places, traditions, and sacred landscapes that continue to shape her journey.
Reader’s Note: In an attempt to bring a conscious sense of responsibility to our language (where inclusivity and equality matter), in our Loto Wellness Collective blog content, except for direct quotes, the pronouns often used for God are They/Them in reference to Great Spirit, the I AM, the Universe. Also, we have taken the liberty of capitalizing the term “True Self” or “Self” so you will know that we are not referring to the “false self” (psychological egoic self), but the foundational Self that we are in God, Imago Dei.
Honoring Indigenous Voices This Thanksgiving
When we listen to Indigenous voices, we're not being "political.” We’re being Christian. Not the empire-shaped version — the Jesus-shaped one.
My Cup Runneth Over
Biblical Feasts: Shavuot/Pentecost (Feast of Weeks) - Illumination
Shavuot is about abundance and revelation. The land yields its fruit, and God yields divine wisdom. The feast weaves together earth and heaven, bread and word, body and spirit.
Biblical Feasts: Yom HaBikkurim (Feast of Firstfruits) - Gratitude
The Feast of Firstfruits teaches us to begin from gratitude — not after we have gathered everything, but before. It is a radical trust in divine abundance, a refusal to be defined by scarcity.
