A lot of factors lead me to this beautiful moment. For years I have struggled with depression and anxiety, causing a lot of stress, and as result my body was showing me how detrimental all of this was. I had terrible eczema (that I always had as child, it ran in the family) but it would flair, and spread like wild fire, through my anxious stress. I lost energy, I had headaches, terrible stomach aches. Throughout this experience, I sought many ways to heal. What I discovered...what I always had...what is innate...was my spirituality. I took to eastern philosophy, yoga, meditation! Then noticing the supplies I used in my practice (incense, anointing oil, candles), I felt a rapidly increasing interest in the scents and how they made me feel, how they changed my mood. What does Sandalwood do? What about Vetiver, Myrrh, Chamomile. Once I found out there was no turning back. I've become obsessed with herbs, oils, and resins! Learning more and more about them and there uses in spirtuality, gardening, medicine, and beauty. Understanding that my physical plane (hippy dippy for body), this open vessel, that readily receives everything you give it and since I always had issue with my body internally and externally. That was my way of healing. I took to my Salem once a week, getting organic herbs, and oils, and supplies, tending an indoor and outdoor garden and took over the kitchen like a mad scientist. I made herbal products, of skin care, aromatheraphy, and oral tinctures and teas, for friends, family, my teachers, and they love them! More and more people became interested in what I do and supported my efforts to the fullest. So here I am trying my hand at selling on Etsy and sharing my true creative expressions with as many people as I can. I have found incredible natural benefits of healing the body in ways I couldn't imagine. I'm always discovering and always learning and I love every minute of it. Embrace your personal power and your beauty, and give what you wish to receive. Be Natural.
