A bit of Aster Medicine for us ~ even though I’d add more to this video & change a few things I still wanted to share.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They are unique in their own way (w/o comparison to Goldenrod, which), and lovely & as we’ve deepened our relationship I would change a bit how I understand their Medicine. They are much more calming & sedating, and to me, evoke a deep sense of calm in the body + mind + nervous system. Mmmm. So good 💜 Regardless, still hopefully a supportive video from Fall 2019! xo {Also, please do your research, see a trusted practitioner/medicine person before working w Plants, especially for things like Asthma shared here!}

Entraining w the Earth, Sun, Stars, Water is a necessary part of returning to ourselves. To Creation. Of protection, sovereignty & living our original instructions.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve noticed for myself, the more attuned w Natural rhythms & ways I become, the more sensitive I am to dissonance - things being off. My body becoming like a musical tuner, notifying when resonance is lacking. When the outside, words or displays, are not in Harmony.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Attunement allows us to flow w our own rhythms & cycles; vs pushing our bodies, minds, spirits in an unnatural way. Honouring our path, trusting our pace, timing & details, even if they don’t look exactly as we thought. We can FEEL Truth. Releasing what others expect, society expects of us. Not abandoning ourselves.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve noticed, for me, Mothering & Medicine Making requires constant alignment. When I am off Center, destabilized, my little one picks up on this & expresses the energy.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Working w the Plants requires us to come back too. To attune. Harmonize w Creation. Making Medicines as a vibrational song of Love, Creating & Healing.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We must remember, embody, what it means to be attuned to these rhythms & ways. Letting the Stones & Water show us. In our ‘modern’ world of inauthenticity, quick dopamine, noise & air pollution, GMO food & dissonance - returning to the Land, ourselves, is vital in keeping aligned to our path-our Medicine-our unique vibration & song.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This harmony guides us, allowing what is to be, to be. What we are meant to share & create, to flow. How we are meant to contribute to Creation, to have space.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Time w the Plants, Stars, Sun, Water - reminds our Cells & Blood how to function. There is ‘Science’ behind this. But the energy is one of being in divine communion w all that is. Allowing what we receive & perceive, to flow out through our interactions w the World.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our intuition & ability to SEE increases as we become more sensitive to these subtle energies.
{{Behind the scenes - what you don’t see is me in my comfy clothes setting up photo shoots 🤪}}

Like many of you creative beings - I am a one Humxn show. It’s just me. I grow the Medicines, vision the formulas, craft the Medicines in Ceremony, do the write ups, take the photos, edit the photos, package, ship, ‘market,’ etc. I drew my logo by hand & taught myself how to make a ‘vector’ (first I taught myself what a vector was lol).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I also run all of the online courses solo. The courses also come through in visions. So, I have to have space to see. I do all of the backend - I taught myself Teachable, the platform I use. (I’m not tech savvy) All of the writing, all of the bundling of Medicines, etc. I am customer service, ‘marketing’ director, etc.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Whew!! It’s a lot. I’ve never shared this, but I think it’s important to see all that goes into behind the scenes of this screen. It may be tempting to look at others work & think it looks easy. My 3.5 year old is only in childcare part time & I’m also the financial provider for my Home.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some days I am hard on myself bc I forget to think about dinner & we end up eating whatever I can pull together, or my home is a mess, or laundry piles up, etc. I’m Humxn💕
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
People sometimes ask for business advice - or, balancing ‘work’ + ‘home.’ For me, it is listening to my body + spirit. I don’t feel like a ‘business’ or ‘entrepreneur.’ I create from my Heart. I listen deeply. And I pray that I have the energy + time to bring these visions to Life. To share with you all ✨ I don’t even have a website, but I’m hoping that comes soon.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, if I ever forget to reply, miss an email, or shipping is a little slow - just know I’m doing my very best to honour being present here, w myself, the medicines, the Garden & Home - while also being in integrity w myself & path, in order to share from a very clear + aligned Space💕🌸
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I am so grateful for you all! I see each of you, also balancing the needs o
Goldenrod abundance, healing, traditional ways of working with this being. Video cuts off ;) Let me know if you sit w them or make any Medicine!!
Spring is on its way - sharing about growing Ashwaganda & starting other seeds indoors ♥️
