It's school holidays! 🥳 I love a chill holiday at home with nowhere to be and nothing to do. Sweet freedom to potter in the garden 🌳🌺 My apothecary is open but I may take longer to reply to messages while I take a well earned rest. One of the many joys of running your own biz is the flexibility to flow with it, something I am always grateful for 🙏🌸

You know what to do. It’s human nature to be peaceful, kind & loving, yet some experiences teach us to harden. That’s about them not you. Stay soft. Keep your heart open. Go gently. Be the change you want to see in peace & love for all 🙏💜🌸

I really need to start growing Motherwort in my garden 🌿💚

Motherwort is a pretty amazing friend to have right about now for the collective nervous system regulation we're all in need of. Tea, tincture, capsule, whatever, would probably help a whole lot of us step back from these screens that keep us doomscrolling and fighting in comment sections.

One thing I really love about Motherwort when it comes to stress management is that she also supports the heart. I mean, her Latin name is literally Leonurus cardiaca, which means "Lion Heart".

When folks say stress k*lls, and it does, they really should say "Stress K*lls The Heart", because it factually puts enormous strain on our entire cardiovascular system. Of course, chronic stress is the most pervasive, but I don't know who the hell hasn't been under an insane amount of chronic stress for...oh..I don't know the last 5 years for some untold reason?

I also like that Motherwort is a gentle nervine that just helps us step and recenter in the body/our immediate surroundings vs knocking us over the head so we're just in a "don't think about it stupor" because legit, that doesn't really help anything.

What we all need is just a moment to step back, self-regulate, and help our body, heart, and mind realize we are safe in this moment.

Yep, Motherwort, and the cool thing is you really only need small amounts. She can be kinda paradoxical in the way that with large doses, you may not feel much, but with small doses?

Well, small doses of Motherwort are like getting the hug we all collectively need.

✨💧 Rose + Lavender Hydrosol – A Simple Ritual for Glowing Skin & Calm Moments 💧✨

Did you know your skin absorbs best when it’s slightly damp, just like a sponge? That’s why spritzing a hydrosol (flower water) before applying your serum or moisturiser makes such a difference.

My Rose + Lavender Hydrosol is steam-distilled, all-natural, and oh-so-versatile:

🌹 Rose brings hydration, softness, and a touch of heart-opening comfort.
💜 Lavender balances, soothes irritation, and helps the mind unwind.

Together, they create a gentle mist that:
💧 Prepares your skin to drink in your serum
💧 Calms redness & restores balance
💧 Uplifts mood while grounding the spirit

✨ How to use:
– Spritz on freshly cleansed skin as a toner
– Mist before serum to boost absorption
– Use as a cooling facial or body spray anytime you need a reset
– Spray on your pillow for sweet dreams

Sometimes the simplest rituals bring the most magic. 💫 Get yours in my Gentle Nectar Apothecary. Link in bio.

Calling all sensitives, empaths & intuitive souls — this one’s for you ✨🌿

💚 Yarrow flower essence is an empath's best friend as a gentle, yet powerful, vibrational ally. It helps you stay grounded, centred, and emotionally balanced, while offering a beautiful layer of energetic protection.

🍀 If you tend to absorb the moods or energies of others, Yarrow acts like a protective shield — keeping your own field clear so you can walk your path with strength and clarity 🌟

Add this plant medicine to your daily rituals and feel the shift 🌟 Yarrow is available in my apothecary as a single essence, and it's in my PROTECT Flower Essence Blend along with Rosemary, White Sage & Eucalyptus. Link in bio.
