Summary

A practical, honest reset for anyone who wants to feel better this summer through food, matcha, meditation, movement, rest, better boundaries, supportive work, and more intentional living. This is about improving your health and wellness journey from June forward without making it complicated, fake, or overwhelming. Intro From Candice Happy June, and welcome back to Wabi Sabi. Today, I want to talk about the June reset and how we can use this month as a fresh start for our health, energy, and ease. June is the beginning of summer and the halfway point of the year, which makes it a really beautiful time to pause and ask ourselves: what is actually helping me feel better, and what do I want the second half of this year to feel like? I was recently asked at one of my speaking events a few questions that sounded simple, but were actually very honest. What does your routine look like? What do you eat regularly? What do you do to feel well? And what advice would you give someone who wants to improve their health and wellness journey from June forward? I loved those questions because I think they are the questions so many of us are quietly asking. How do I take better care of myself when life is full? How do I eat well without making it complicated? How do I create a routine that actually supports me? How do I rest when I have responsibilities? How do I begin again when the first half of the year did not go exactly as planned? For me, May was full and meaningful. It was AANHPI Month, and I was grateful to share my Japanese heritage, matcha, wellness, and culture through ABC News, speaking events, library events, wellness gatherings, and beautiful rooms where we could talk about the deeper meaning behind this work. But May was also very hard. Someone I used to be very close to passed away suddenly. And bad news came in a few areas-- So while I am grateful, I am also human. I have been processing grief, uncertainty, exhaustion, and the reminder that health is not something we can keep putting off. So this episode is not about pretending everything is fine. It is not about a perfect wellness routine. It is not about becoming a different person overnight. It is about simple things that actually help. Food that steadies you. Morning rituals that calm you. Movement that gives you energy back. Rest that restores you. Work and people that respect your health. And a summer that lets your nervous system breathe. This is your June reset. A summer guide to health, energy, and ease. Thank you for listening x ck

0:22.3

your life a little easier, getting that natural energy. I love June because it gives us something

0:29.7

that January doesn't always give us. January feels intense. It's cold weather, it's dark,

0:36.7

it can feel like resolutions, reinventions, discipline,

0:40.8

a bunch of declarations to become a new person. June feels different. This is a halfway point

in the year, the beginning of summer, the days are longer and brighter, they're full of more warmth,

Ask yourself, what is actually helping me to be a better person this June?

Not do I need to do more hard work or work smarter, how to prove yourself or check off every goal. Nope. This is actually going to help

your mind, body, health, energy, and peace. It's the reset that you've been looking for. And it's not

about becoming somebody else. It's about going back to becoming you and focusing on yourself and what you really want.

1:30.4

I was recently asked at one of my speaking events, a few questions that I thought were simple,

1:36.4

but very honest, and they could help to improve, not just those ladies that were in the room

that day, but yours as well. What does your routine

look like? What do you eat regularly? What do you do to feel well? And what advice would you

give to somebody who wants to improve their health and wellness journey from June forwards?

1:57.2

And I wanted to go through these today so that we can talk about food, easy rituals that restore us,
