My name is Laurel I. Brooke and I’m an author, storyteller, and creator of mythic spaces for modern seekers.
I bring together story, ritual, playful magic, and embodied practices to help you reclaim your creativity, explore your inner landscapes, and live a more enchanted, sovereign life.
I’m currently completing my debut novel, a romantasy retelling of
The Marriage of Sir Gawain and Dame Ragnelle—a story of sovereignty, desire, and the power that awakens when we choose our own truth and decide to write our own story.

A gift for you…

One of the most powerful things I’ve learned as a writer—and as a human—is how to work with the nervous system. This year I wrote over 100,000 words–something I couldn’t have done without the following regulation practice, which I now offer to you.

🌬️ Sovereign Breath is a free, grounding practice designed to calm the nervous system and restore creative flow. When you sit down to create and you notice that you’re blocked, distracted, suddenly irritated, or sleepy… these are all signs that your nervous system has registered your creative life as a danger, and switched to the sympathetic–fight/flight/freeze/fawn.

When you notice this happening, you can download and follow along to a simple breathwork based guided meditation for 6 minutes. This will shift your nervous system back to the parasympathetic–rest, digest, create.

Ritual and rhythm transformed my creative life.

This year I called in my finished book, made space for it on my altar and giving it offerings.

I slowly learned how to hold and expand a creative container—what began as a small, weekly practice grew into a daily relationship with the work, whether at my desk or on the move.

Mythic Living is a free community where I share more of these practices and invite you to share your own. It’s a free community devoted to ritual, story, myth, and creative presence—a place to explore what it means to live in relationship with your creativity, your deeper narrative, and your mythic self. Inside, you’ll find simple rituals, mythic reflections, glimpses into my author life, and space for genuine conversation and connection.
