What can I share with you about Vetiver?

The first thing that comes to mind is Vetiver is the oil of Centering and Descent. What does that mean? This oil when you smell it, has a root, earthy smell to it. So with that in mind, its naturally grounding to our heart and soul. Deepening rest that you possibly so deeply need. From the book Emotions & Essential Oils, the negative emotions that this oil will help support are feelings of apathetic, despondent, disconnected, scattered, split, stressed, ungrounded, need to escape or feeling in crisis. The positive properties of this oil, will bring about feelings of centered, grounded, present, discovering deeper facets of being, emotionally connected and rooted.

Vetiver Oil

The roots of the vetiver plant are unique in their ability to grow downward, creating a thick tangle of roots in the ground. The root of the hearty vetiver plant is the origin of Vetiver oil, and produces a fragrance that is earthy and strong. This aroma has been used among many perfume industries and is a notable characteristic of Vetiver oil. Vetiver oil is composed of multiple sesquiterpenes, giving Vetiver oil a grounding effect on emotions. This grounding effect makes Vetiver oil a commonly used essential oil in massage practices and topical and aromatic uses. Vetiver oil can also be taken internally to support a healthy immune system.*

Emotionally, Lavender is known as the oil of Communication and Calm. This is a beautifully light essential oil that as you can see can be used for a variety of ailments both physical and emotional. The negative emotions this oil will support is feeling blocked communication, fear of rejection, feeling unseen or unheard, constricted, tension, emotional dishonesty, fear of self-disclosure. The positive emotions that Lavender will promote is open communication, relaxed, expressive emotional honesty and feeling heard. (Source: Emotions and Essential Oils)

The Power of Divine Timing | Sourdough Bread

One thing I forgot to share in my interview yesterday with @theempathhealer is that within our 3 mth intensive together the last third of 2021 is that she helped me heal some major emotional eating challenges that had been plaguing me since my teens. I now have a COMPLETELY different understanding, love and appreciation for cooking AND more important, how I was numbing my body with food. It was also at a time when I was just diagnosed with various allergens and food sensitivities and it simply felt like I could eat nothing…

Fall of 2022 during one of our Chakra Mastery calls we were each challenged to lean in and do/learn something. I had casually mentioned about how I’ve wanted to lean how to make sourdough bread. To which I was told to lean in and DO IT! As someone else was taking their turn I looked up the person on Instagram that someone I know had shared her profile…not only was she less than 30 min from me she had a course coming up and had 1 spot left.

I signed up while on the call.
Then resistance hit…
As it likes to. Doubt, anxiety of not knowing what to do and it would be too complicated.

That day arrived and the morning didn’t go as planned. I received news a family member wasn’t well and I went immediately to see what I could do. While there I kept thinking I’m going to be late, see you shouldn’t have signed up, you need to be here. I trusted. Divine timing. If it’s meant to be, it will.

I honestly do not know how, but I arrived at @lohambleton studio on time, slightly frazzled but READY to lean in! We prepped 2 loaves and an apple pie! Plus enjoyed a delicious appetizer style lunch with fresh bread and other goodies.

Weekends are now for bread, it’s probably the only time I eat bread now and trust me it doesn’t last long 😉 We have even expanded, the one photo with the 4 “loaves” those are for pizza tonight! Sourdough used for pizza is outstanding! For my husband to compliment AND ask for it LOL I know I’ve done something right!

So big props to Avalon for helping me find myself, this has been quite the journey but one I am happily here for 💖🙏✨️

The Power of our Intuition | Trusting Ourself

I’ve had a powerful few days, beginning with a Reiki and Energy share with some other very talented energy workers, a Reiki Treatment with my Reiki Master, some deep realizations learned… Speak from the scar not the wound.

Then my Empath Healer, Avalon Starlight contacted me to speak live with her on Instagram on Saturday morning. I instantly said yes, and then the resistance set in LOL!

I was triggered last night, my previous video shows how I handled that, in such an effective way!

This morning during our call, I briefly spoke of my attachment to the phone and always needing it with me. I explained how I was able to free myself from this. Although, I didn’t allow myself to “go there” deeper to where I needed to be.

This share, is why listening to our intuition is not only crucial it helps us develop our own trust within ourself.

There was one evening that is in the past 8 approx years, I’m trying to detach from dates being embedded in my mind, that was emotionally very transformational, in a negative way. I know I did not properly deal with what I was faced with.

Also a few other awesome Intuition hits that make me smile.

What Do You Do When Triggered?

How do you react when you feel triggered?
The old me, wouldn’t have been so motivated.
The new me… when I said to myself “what should I do…” (had some alone time at home for a few hours), my voice suddenly said “let’s work out”.
The confusion that crossed my face haha 🤣
Ok let’s at least go change out of jeans and into comfy pants. I walked in my closet and grabbed my workout shorts. So I went with it!
I layered on some Deep Blue on my thighs (feeling it from Thursday) and put some Frankincense on my temples – The Oil of TRUTH! I also put Breathe on my chest, the oil of Breath. This oil can help also with “grief” and sometimes triggers and grief go hand in hand of what you need to release to heal. 💖
After working out I journaled, and allowed my heart to fully release and lean in. Nourished myself in the kitchen with a delicious bowl for dinner and put in an outstanding intuitive diffuser blend! ✨️
Ok… I guess this IS how my soul wants to face the triggers.
It worked.
Talk about rising up and realizing that, the trigger is not me, and does not resonate with my core values and ethics. I also cannot change a single other person… just ME!
Grateful I leaned in and listened to the voice that suddenly appeared. 🙏

I go more in depth in this video of handling the process!

TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY

TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY 💖

I shared this over on Instagram… where I’ve spent most of my digital days between many avid breaks of “social media” since Novemeber of 2020.

As I am healing I am realizing the toll that my husband’s accident had not only on him physically and mentally, but also for me (and the kids) mentally.

I am SO grateful to my parents and father-in-law to be able to communicate with them and know they could pass on as they saw needed. The pain of being told I couldn’t be with him (yet I was with him before) and the thought of having to repeat over and over to people as I sat bawling in the halll of the hospital, was heart wrenching. Truthfully looking back I’m not sure how I functioned and yet I had to. The what if fear circled my mind more times than not. We were tested beyond belief and even as his healing was rounding the finish line the Universe just needed to be sure of our commitment to our all of our health, heart and soul as we ended 2022 and into 2023. I am so proud of me, as a woman, I am so proud of my husband and I am so proud of our kids. Something that very well of could have broken us in so many ways, actually pulled us together, stronger than ever and trusting fully in the divine. 💖✨️

If you are a part of our life today, thank you 🙏

Not sure why this is causing my stomach to literally do flips and tie itself in knots…

I feel like I’ve literally LOST 1/2 of me and while during that transformation FOUND my truth, my heart and soul!

I have held strong at the 75lbs loss that I reached in… 2021. Lord only knows why as that may have been the most stressful year of my life.

Also where I FOUND MY STRENGTH, MY VOICE, MY TRUTH!

I celebrate the woman on the left, she thought she was fine, she thought she was strong, she thought she was “healthy”… I honor her and how far WE have come together. It’s been a journey.

A journey I once thought I couldn’t do. I stressed about loosing weight and having to buy ALL new clothes. [That’s a massive investment – um hello bras and underwear – remember in 2020/21 when WOMEN literwlly couldn’t walk in a store to try on a bra… seriously what 🤯] I stressed about finding a sports bra that would fit, then after loosing one that would now fit different. BUT I didn’t let it hold me back. I did this for ME, I held strong for ME and when needing to literally replace my ENTIRE closet (over time), I shopped smart… sales and also local!

Prior to becoming Reiki certified I had no idea the impact of our physical (and mental) health when our energy body is dense, feeling stuck or we have ignored/pushed away things, emotions, feelings, people. Feel, to Heal. It can be a DEEP journey, but it’s one I’m HERE for 🙌

Do it for YOU, whatever “it” is.
And tell the naysayers to take a seat in the back where they belong ✌️💖

___________________________________________

Unapologetically

There are no perfect pictures or perfect moments.
Because EVERYTHING IS perfect in its own way, whatever that is.
Not much is “perfect” to what “perfect” is in this picture.
Bed is not made perfectly.
My bag and journals, books on the bed.
Most likely various oils as well. Probably don’t have any blankets without oil stains!
Garbage is sitting promintely behind.
A random charger hanging.
What IS perfect…
The mindset that continues to heal and expand every single day.
It’s a shame it taken almost 40 years to learnt this…
The peace thar arrives is beyond what one could have imagined. Regardless of what anyone thinks or the “shoulds”.
What if…
What IF, we ALL just leaned into OUR true selves and said… fuck the rest!
That… THAT is peace!
I find so much peace within now, but it wasn’t that way not long ago.
Finding peace in your truth, finding peace in SPEAKING your truth and aligning your heart and soul.
Incredible peace and abundance will surface ✨️
Until then… we keep building on this strength, the kind of strength that is beyond what you could imagine. Until you deep dive into you, and set aside every single other person.
There IS perfection in being unapologetically YOU!
✌️

Cycles & Self-Worth

Its kind of bittersweet how things we choose to not deal with or push down thinking it will go away, comes back, sometimes much stronger, sometimes with a vengeance, to actually feel through this and heal.

Taking our power back from these cycles and re-gaining our self worth! Ive personally had some cycles coming up and closing, which is exciting. The emotions that come up, eh not so much, however the transformation through that cycle coming up and then being able to feel, to heal. Is pure power!

I hope you enjoy this video as much as I did 🙂

March 11th | 2023

Three years ago today, was our last “normal” day in this current world we are living in. Thankfully our today life is drastically different than the days following March 11, 2020.

I woke up this morning and was hit with this realization. First step, get the diffuser going! This blend is 👌

Green Mandarin – Pure Potential
Peppermint – Buoyant Heart
Rosemary – Knowledge and Transition
Wild Orange – Abundance
Litsea – Manifestation

Its incredible to think, in these 3 years how significant life has changed and shifted, for some it was extremely drastic, for others mildly affected and for many it was in between.

I look back on MY 3 years and here is what rises for me.

The world was going SO fast, we needed a slow down. Something so drastic, no – however its also been significant in what has transpired with the “speed” and slow down.
People began re-thinking their current life and living – do I need this “stuff” or do I need space (out of the city into smaller communities). Value trade proposition was definitely a key driving factor.
Lean in to what lights you up! ✨️ Personally that was my photography, being out in nature, learning to enjoy silence. Moving my body. Enjoying health and fitness. Spending time as a family. Deeper understanding of my draw to essential oils on an emotional and physical health level. Working with energy and diving deeper within. Pausing more. With gratitude.
Mental Health – we were all living a life that was literally go, Go, GO! Although I was tending to my own mental health, and had been consciously since 2016, I hadn’t realized the depths that I needed to go. This was for many.
We need to Feel, to Heal. With this slow down, MANY people were suddenly faced with an abundance of alone time – whether you had people you lived with or not. There was something about this unknown lull that really pulled me in, my soul knew we needed a deeper dive on this and this was the opportunity to really begin to lean in, do some deep healing and re-connect with spirit. The more we ignore our feelings, push them down and away, the more they compound until one day the dam bursts, that could be a breakdown, an injury, addiction from food to booze to drugs and anything in between.
The importance of knowing MY truth, MY values, MY ethics and knowing those so deeply that I trust myself first, over anyone or anything else. This was pivotal over the past 3 years. Deeply and completely. I got to know myself and was challenged, tested in fact over where I would push aside MY truth, values and ethics for someone else. Truth always prevails.
Being self sufficient as much as possible within our own homes, including sourcing local healthy foods, drinks, home and body care and cleaning to be free from contaminants, toxins, chemicals etc. that cause irreparable harm (at times) to our health and physical body.
The power of our own words. If there is one thing that has been pivotal, its recognizing the ultimate power of our words.
Never sacrifice myself, for someone else.
When change needs to happen, listen and follow my heart of what I know my truth is. Trust in knowing that it IS OK to stand up for what I know is right.
MY health, is in my control. That’s it. I choose what is right for me, no one else. I feel how my body feels, I honor the path of my physical and emotional healing.
Just because someone says something is needed or safe, my heart, mind, soul and body will decipher if that is our truth or not.
ITS OK TO SPEAK UP. In various situations however what comes up was a doctor gaslighting. “You are trying to do too much, go home take this prescription muscle relaxers and put your foot up more.” With a broken leg, broken medical metal and screws touching with a shifted bone. Just because someone has medical credentials, does NOT mean they know more or should make decisions for your body, that do not feel in alignment. This was a very pivotal point for me. Literally hearing God’s words saying ‘My child it’s time to STAND. You are needed.’ May 2021, the spring my voice strengthened and backbone lengthened.
Home IS where the heart is 💖! Wherever that is for each of us, the opportunity (with multiple pauses) to continue the customization of our house that was almost complete as our home. As much as I was beyond frustrated in the spring of 2019 when we were told we had 6 mths to begin our 3 home additions… the summer of 2020 proved, spirit ALWAYS has our back. It may seem totally fucked up and senseless at times, alot will not make sense. Had we not been forced to begin the additions, my husband healing journey would have been much harder and more challenging for him.
Institutionalized school is ok, it’s important for socialization… but it’s NOT the be all, end all. In 2020, although emotionally charged in SO many ways, our kids learned SO.MUCH.MORE! Being home, outside, in our shop, experimenting, being OUT in nature. Real hands on learning vs sitting and listening, albeit some of it was this, in front of a screen. There are many still also healing from this.
Eyes wide open. Humanity has been reaching this boiling point for a while. A go-go-go society is simply not sustainable. Mother Gaia is shifting in big ways, more of humanity is beginning to see this.
Truth ALWAYS prevails. It doesn’t matter what “truth”, it always rises higher than the dark dense energy. Feel, to Heal, involves shining the light on this darkness, ✨️ within yourself first, always. You are the only thing within your control. Yup even if you have kids. Instead of pushing emotions down, dig deep, prepare yourself, and be open to what surfaces, be compassionate with your energy body to process, Feel, to Heal. Lean in to living YOUR truth, whatever that may be. With gratitude and appreciation.

Alignment is an interesting thing. The more I lean into ME, my heart and soul, regardless of anyone else, the insights become crystal clear. The soul moves, heartled and patterns to paradise reveal themselves to a peaceful, graceful and ease in life. Alignment is an interesting thing.

The only person in this life who can truly support me, is ME. The more I lean into that, the more magic unfolds. Through the pain, challenges, discomfort, hurt, anger, sadness to the love, beauty, peace, growth, transformation, fun, laughter.

In more ways than one.

Deep Healing – Forever Consciousness | March 10/23

A favourite empath Healer of mine, Avalon Starlight – The Empath Healer shared this with me and I am truly grateful 🙏

“There is a big astrological energy calling up old wounds to be healed once and for all. If you are experiencing feelings from the past, know that this is part of a big transformation for you.

This article by Forever Consciousness goes through the Jupiter Chiron conjunction and it really helped me to see that I’m shifting some big energies over here.

I hope it helps you too 💕”

Intuitive Astrology: Jupiter Conjunct Chiron March 9-15, 2023

Lean in, allow yourself to surrender.

Visualize your chakras coming into alignment and lighting up. Physically ‘clear’ them or use oils or Sage to cleanse.

Brain dump, a tip I heard from my Reiki practitioner, Krystal reminded me the other day the power behind this.

It’s incredibly powerful!

Also, leaning in to YOU. Feel, to Heal. Sometimes this means allowing yourself more ease and grace in your life ✨️ in whatever that means to you.

Personally, I’ve felt this energy. As I learn more about the planets and energy, I am realizing and feeling first hand, I am quite connected. Energy shifts, are significant.

One thing to remember is our Triggers are our Teachers! Especially when it’s from wounds that were left unhealed. That is what will surface. It’s ok, truly. Feel into whatever it is.

How do you support your mental health? What makes YOU feel good?

For example, for me, I know when I use my essential oils that helps me SO much, whether its topically or aromatically in the diffuser. Or cozy home cooking that’s good on my tummy, delicious and my body is happy with! My photography, my heart just lights up, in a very big way. Means so much! Writing, as I mentioned the brain dump is powerful! Pulling oracle cards for messages from spirit! Movement, I’ve never been a committed avid athlete, but daily yoga or BODi workouts have been pivotal in my shifts. Also honoring the down time, honoring when I need extra sleep or asking for help.
