A heartfelt thank you to for the beautiful feature on winter wellness.
Honoured to share soul-warming ways to move through the colder months with grace, strength, and
the sacred opportunity to rest and recharge. ❄️🫖✨

You weren’t meant to fit everywhere ..you were meant to find your people. The ones who see your light and don’t ask you to dim it.

And how do you find the others??

You find your tribe by first being true to yourself.

When you stop shrinking, people who resonate with your full frequency begin to appear.

It’s not about searching, it’s about showing up as you really are.

The more authentically you walk your path, speak your truth, and honour your weird and wonderful essence, the more you become a lighthouse for the souls meant to journey with you.

Your tribe finds you when you stop hiding.

Just a little tune-up…
To soften jaw tension, clear the sinuses, and awaken mental clarity — this is what we call the mini lift.

Designed especially for women who carry their stress in the face, clench the jaw through the night, or feel mentally foggy from overwhelm, this quick acupuncture protocol works wonders with just three key points:

Yin Tang — the “third eye” point. Gently calms the mind, soothes the nervous system, and centres scattered thoughts. It brings a subtle radiance to the forehead and often induces a sense of peaceful clarity.

Large Intestine 19 — nestled beside the nostrils, this point clears nasal congestion, refreshes the breath, and lifts facial qi. It’s a favourite for women wanting to de-puff, open the sinuses, and subtly lift the cheeks.

Stomach 6 — located at the jaw muscle, this point melts away tension stored from unspoken emotions, teeth grinding, or mental pressure. It restores softness to the jawline and can even reduce facial tightness or asymmetry from chronic clenching.

Together, these points work like an energetic reset button for the upper face.
It’s not just cosmetic — it’s a moment of nervous system regulation, breath opening, and emotional unwinding.

At the first sign of fatigue or a scratchy throat, I turn to Jade Palace.🫖

When everyone around me is sick, I reach for the Jade Palace. 🤧

Before my body even has a chance to crash, I reach for Jade Palace. 🤒

Easy. 💫
Make a strong brew, add honey, 🍯 add 🍋.. 💫💫💫🌟

The Lung Meridian activation and
restoring “the broken link”,
where the grief that fragmented us can be stitched back together, thread by thread, breath by breath.

During the first workshop on Letting go, I taught that the purpose of the Lungs are not just about oxygen.

It is about inspiration; the courage to inhale life, and the grace to let go. 🤍

The Lungs transmit the quiet whisper of the soul that says:
“I am here. 😮‍💨I belong. 😮‍💨I am ready to breathe again.”😮‍💨

When activated with intention, acupuncture here can help the person:

🪽Release long-held grief — especially grief that isn’t fully conscious
🪽Restore a sense of inspiration and divine timing

🪽Open the heart-lung axis — allowing emotion to be felt and metabolised
🪽Aid those who feel disconnected from their body, their breath, or their worth.🌟

✨Your deepest pain can become your highest medicine ✨

Lately, I’ve been reminding my patients that this isn’t just poetic truth.

It’s spiritual alchemy. And yes, it’s possible.

Not by avoiding the pain.
Not by numbing or pushing it down.
But by gently transforming the relationship we have with it.
By listening. By honouring. By allowing it to reveal what it came to teach.

This is how the wound becomes wisdom.
This is how the pain becomes power.

And aren’t we here to become empowered?

You can’t receive with clenched fists.
You must open your hands — and your heart — to hold anything real.

In Taoist wisdom: the idea that grasping tightly leads to loss, while openness, surrender, and non-attachment allow us to truly receive or “hold” in the deeper sense.

So soften your grasp, when you let go of control or expectation, and create space.

Space for flow.

Space for trust.

Space to receive what is meant for you.

So Open your hands to receive.

To keep learning is to remain alive,
not just biologically, but consciously.

It’s a quiet rebellion against stagnation.
A devotion to curiosity.
An affirmation that truth is not fixed, but unfolding.

But learning is not only about adding. Often, it is about unlearning — and that can be confronting. Because when new information arrives that shatters the old, it can feel like a small death. A dismantling of identity. And yet, this is the very gateway to growth.

To relearn in the face of what challenges you is to practise humility. It’s to say: I am not my beliefs. I am not fixed. ✨I am here to evolve.✨

In Taoist thought, the flexible survives. The rigid breaks. The wise are like water — always moving, always adapting, never clinging.

So yes, one must never stop learning —
because the real beauty is not in having the answers,
but in becoming a vessel wide enough to hold new truths,
without fear of the old falling away.

Your Ritual is the Art of Returning … back to yourself.

So light that incense.
Soak your feet.
Sip that tea with your whole being.
Speak kindly to your inner child.
Trace the meridian lines with reverence.
Anoint your heart like it’s a sacred altar.

You don’t need more productivity hacks.
You need more sacred pauses.
More rituals that feel like a coming home.

Because in the end, ritual is remembering:
That even in the madness, you are still whole.
Still sacred.
Still worthy of beauty, stillness, and soul.

✨ May your rituals be your refuge.

With warmth and love,
Dr. Marina

The way you choose to spend your time shows what (or who) you truly care about.

Love isn’t just about words or feelings.
Love is shown through presence, attention, and action.
If you love someone or something, you’ll give your time to it.
Time is the real proof of what matters to you.

In short, please remember:

Where your time goes, your love flows…💫

Dr Marina’s Ritual for vibrancy…💫💫💫

More than a body exfoliant, The Awaken Scrub is a reawakening of your entire energy system.

Formulated with mineral-rich salts and a potent infusion of activating herbs, this scrub doesn’t just polish the skin — it purifies your field.

Did we mention that it also smells divine??

Each ingredient is chosen for its ability to stimulate circulation, invigorate stagnant energy and sweep away the energetic residue we unknowingly carry.😇

Use as part of your morning or evening self-care ritual
Best followed with your favourite House of Life tea or the Heart anointing oil.
