January Newsletter Highlights

2026 is giving big transformation…

A special offer to help you through the darkness to the light // + creative writing workshops!

Hey, babes!

Are you doing the thing? Celebrating the new year? It’s just a man-made, Gregorian construct.

Happy new year! if that jives. Happy day! otherwise.

New year, new day, all are great to continue with your self exploration, self care, and self transformation.

What do the stars say about 2026? Cory Nakasue, a New York-California gal, is part of the Planet Dust community. She writes in an accessible, cogent way about the new year. You can expect a lot of shifts. Read her forecast on Chronogram magazine by clicking the link here.

I have a new deal to share with you. Time Capsules are for sale during January – $500 for three, one hour individual sessions with Anastasia ($750 value). Schedule the first session in January to assess goals and create a container. Receive a reminder and priority booking for an hour-long session in June and then a reminder and priority booking for an hour-long session December. Deal comes with a time-capsule sheet to fill in and track progress and accessibility to Anastasia throughout the year. To take advantage of this deal respond back to this email or contact my Client Manager, Jenny at pde@anastasiawasko.com.

It’s also a new Gregorian calendar year and I’ve got three new workshops for you! See below:

The writer behind The Reflection

Hi there! Thanks for reading. My name is Anastasia. I’m a writer, editor, and mental health practitioner who helps you find your joy and authenticity through the fire of inner transformation.

In that light, my writing is service — the stories I share about my own psychospiritual growth, the process of self-transformation, and the ways culture affects how I value my lived experience of mental illness. In a time of polycrises and too much information, I offer a grounded perspective. 

And, I explore the deep stuff–when our souls live at the edges between life and death; when we have exceptional experiences; how we understand the archetypal across time and space.

  • If you are a person with a mental illness who is in recovery, a caregiver of someone with a mental illness, or a mental health professional who is exploring being human and being and want to ignite more joy and authenticity, start a conversation with me here 

I offer consultations, workshops, and a group program through my online business Planet Dust. It’s a global community for individuals who are navigating inner growth in an outer world on fire. The signature program Self-Regulation Mastery is for GenX individuals with mood disorders in recovery, their caregivers, and their mental healthcare professionals. 

BTW: I love tattoos and coffee.
