A gentle companion through the changing season
Each April morning, I opened this book before anything else. The entries are soft, stirring, and spoke to a deeper longing for emotional renewal. By the time May arrived, I felt more present in my own skin. This volume feels like walking barefoot through new grass - grounding, opening, alive.
Unfolding wisdom for the soul
The metaphors in this volume – especially the blooming, the softness, and the vulnerability – guided me through a time of deep self-inquiry. I returned to several June entries over and over. It’s rare to find something this tender and spiritually practical at the same time.
Heat & Flame ~ A Soulful Journey Through Courage, Connection, and Conscious Emotion
By Jason A. Solomon
When the outer world begins to bloom, so too does something within us. We feel it in the softness of our breath, in the quiet ache for clarity, and in the moments we long to be more fully present in our own lives.
Origins of Opening is Volume 2 in the 365 Days of SOUL series, guiding you through the expansive emotional landscape of April, May, and June. These months, positioned at the threshold of seasonal shift, offer fertile ground for reflection, renewal, and awakening. This book doesn’t rush you forward. It walks beside you, page by page, with presence, tenderness, and inner warmth.
Drawing on the element of Fire, these entries shimmer with emotional truth and personal revelation. They speak to the flame we all carry - the one that flickers when we’re vulnerable, grows when we’re honest, and lights our way when we’re ready to change. Through poetic stories, symbolic metaphors, and soul-based practices, each day invites a gentle opening. You are encouraged to soften, not to perform. To feel more, not to fix. To ignite without burning out.
This volume honours the delicate moments between decisions, the thresholds of becoming. With archetypes like The Vessel, The Flame Tender, and The Gentle Mirror, the book helps name what you’re feeling and offers space to befriend it. You’ll find emotional rhythms that align with the natural world: blooming after long stillness, releasing what no longer nourishes, and discovering that softness is not the opposite of strength, but its beginning.
It is a book for anyone learning to feel again. For the one who’s spent years in survival mode, the one who’s just now learning how to name what hurts, and the one who wants to bring more warmth into their days without losing themselves in the process.
You don’t need to be healed to begin. You just need to be present.
