Welcoming All

Thank you for being here.

For choosing to drift away the busyness of your virtuality and reality, the comfort of your social homepages, and home spaces to sit for a moment with me.

A place of reprieve away from the hyper stimulation where you can come to find inspiration, motivation, and hope.

A space that honors the natural way.

A place where we can all peacefully coexist.

A space where you can be you and I can be me, and we can each be respectful and free.

This is no man’s land for you freelance peaceful warriors who don’t want to claim a side and can sense the dangers of extremism erupting from all around.

Maybe, you too, can see community crumbling with the pressure of needing to step right or step left.

Perhaps you also recognize there are matters more important at hand, like the health of our bodies, this greater Earth body, and it is only through healing the soil, water, and air that then we too can heal.

So here we are, a band of outliers coming together to connect in a softer way to restore health the greater good.

Choosing to recognize that we can feed the calamity or create the calm.

Seeking to add back in the kind in humankind.

Looking to bring harmony and balance to our inner and outer ecosystems, naturally.

If you’ve followed me on Instagram, this will be very much so a reflection of the content I’ve posted there which is true holistic health & wellness, holistic herbalism, natural parenting, seasonal living with a splash of spiritual musings, yoga, and whimsy. A melding of thousands of years of ancient wisdom and evidence based modern science.

As much as I have and do enjoy creating content on the gram, I’ve been feeling that it’s slowly pulling from me negatively, taking more than I care to give. That my hand is being forced in a sense, align with one or stand with none. I was noticing more and more the disconnect from the sacred arts of healing in pursuit of this new age western, greed driven, trendy spirituality and alternative health movement that has sells retreats, gimmicky products, thinness, restrictive diets, poor quality herbs, & under/overconsumption all in the name of herbalism and holistic health.

Deconstructing traditional wisdom, sacrificing quality for infamy.

Consumerism over Conscious Connection.

Some have never or no longer personally touch the plants that they present.

It has been leaving a poor taste in the mouth and a dark cloud over my spirit. I want to shout… Are there any out there who hear the plant calling? Can hear the language of the birds and the trees? Hold reverence for the wise ancestors who came before? Remember to first do no harm, and take only what you need?

I find the takeaway from this over abundance of information + influencers, is only fueling confusion, generating further fear and mistrust in both alternative and conventional health and medicine. Yet very few are truly healing.

If I had to state my mission purpose here, it would be to promote true holistic living, health and wellness, naturally. To educate and share in an organic way that makes you feel empowered in your health journey, where you feel safe to not just heal, but to thrive. Most importantly to share Nature in a way that bridges any separation.

Because Nature is here with and for you, for us.

And I’m here with and for you.

Awakening the Healing Roots Within

Growing together

Reciprocity
