Why subscribe to this space?
When you subscribe to Landing Softly with Dr. Mariel, you’re carving out space in your life to slow down and come back to yourself. This newsletter offers monthly letters that help quiet the noise—both around you and within you—so you can find clarity, stillness, and a gentler way of moving through the world.
Each post is grounded in reflection, personal moments from my own life (like tending my garden or learning to pause at age 40), and simple practices that support you in creating a life that feels more aligned and less rushed. Think of it as a soft landing spot—one that reminds you to breathe, notice, and reconnect.
When you subscribe, you’ll get access to an occasional newsletter of Landing Softly. Whether it's a reflection on creating quiet in a loud world, a story from my own journey toward balance, or a gentle reminder to take a breath—you’ll have a library of thoughtful, calming content to return to whenever you need a moment of respite.

Join the circle
You’ll be joining a community of thoughtful readers who are also looking for ways to slow down, stay grounded, and live with more ease. You’re welcome to share your thoughts in the comments, connect with others who are on a similar path, or simply read and reflect quietly. And if this space nourishes you, you can support it with a paid subscription—which helps me continue writing and building this space with care and intention.
A paid subscription will offer you weekly posts with sprinkles of personal reflections and healing practices, updated podcast episodes to my podcast, Break the Cycle, and monthly Tea Talks where we get to gather in community. A paid subscription helps to support my writing journey so that I can continue to show up for us. Thank you so much for your support.
