Meet our friend Brook Albrigo. As an energy healer, intuitive guide, and visual artist based in Long Beach, she combines her background in energy work with practices such as astrology, tarot, and shamanic healing to help individuals reconnect with their inner selves and align their energies. She’s here to help us settle more deeply into fall and the seasons ahead.

Caring for our energy and well-being throughout the seasons mirrors the rhythms of nature. By embracing the natural shifts that occur during fall, you can feel more aligned, supported, and energetically balanced. When you flow with the season’s changes, you nurture both your inner world and overall sense of well-being. Here are four things you can do to shift your energy.

Connect With Nature

Connect with the grounding energy of fall by spending time in nature or simply observing it. Whether you’re taking mindful walks, enjoying a warm drink on your porch, or gazing out the window, immerse yourself in the sights, sounds, and crisp air of the season. Grounding in this way helps you stay centered and balanced as the energy shifts with the changing season.

Let Go

Just as trees shed their leaves, fall is the perfect time to release what no longer serves you. Write down what you’re ready to let go of and safely burn the paper in a fireproof container as a symbol of renewal. You can also clear out physical or digital clutter from your home or phone, creating space for fresh energy to flow in.

Surround Yourself With Warmth

Embrace warmth and nourishment by sipping on herbal teas like ginger, cinnamon, or chamomile to soothe your energy, taking baths with salts and fall-aligned essential oils like Rosemary or Cedarwood to cleanse your energy, and wearing earthy colors—deep reds, oranges, and browns—to energetically align with the season.

Protect Your Energy

As fall sets in, we may become more sensitive and easily drained by others or external events. To safeguard your energy, use grounding crystals like Smoky Quartz or Black Tourmaline, which serve as energetic shields and help maintain balance and boundaries.
