Flowing gracefully into 2026 🦢 🦢 🦢

My interest in research of late has been on NRF2 (nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2) and how it pertains to gut health and how that pertains to/influences neuroimmunity, endocrine and metabolic health in regards to neuroplasticity, cognitive function & disease, endocrine health (specifically the hypothalamus pituitary ovarian axis) and female reproductive diseases.

For reiki and t.4ntra, I find so many cross overs and want to expand more into how these modalities subtend through the energetic framework and see how that moulds my offerings within these modalities.

I think a lot of people are intimidated by t.4ntra as a practice, because of western bastardisation of the s3xual elements within modern white washed offerings.
As a philosophy it harks simply the essence of loving understanding of self, to bridge that towards all we meet and share with in life. Sharing love with others is the sweetest and greatest gift and we all know that feeling clearly.

Reiki and t.4antra explore these themes organically as they both show us what is bubbling internally. So that is something I am eager to explore and expand in 2026, as my own interests lays deeply in autonomy and self awareness.

The reason I began my herbal medicine journey all those years ago was birthed from the same idea; of knowing how to treat yourself as so you can make sound decisions about your own health rather than pouring time energy money into external sources when it may not be necessary at that time. Knowing when and when not to call upon these external sources, etc.

Knowing what is important and what isn’t.

So within this framework are my offerings, authentic and personally inspired.

I am going to continue creating products within the origins collection - as needed. Meditation balm is sold out and there are a few moontide steams and Voluptas oleums left. The response to these products has been grand and well received and my deepest gratitude for their reception. The idea to make affordable, multi use herbal medicines for those who need them is a blessing.

“My hair was beat from years of sun and salt and coconut oil on repeat, not showing any signs of growth until I took an inch off and started using the way of healing’s rosemary hair oil. I think it’s been a month and my hair feels so much healthier, and I’ve got at least an inch of growth back and my curls are lush as and it doesn’t look like it’s gonna stop anytime soon, I’m so into it”

• OUT OF OFFICE • FULL MOON MUSINGS •

I will be away from the apothecary from the 18th of May and returning on June 24.

If you would like to make an appointment for reiki, herbal medicine or enquire about 1:1 reiki teachings before I depart to the northern hemisphere for a soul driven vigil and teachings, please head to my website to book 💌

I will also be running another community clinic day in honour of this Scorpio full moon arriving in the s.hemisphere tomorrow 24-4 🏹🌕 (Date TBC).

I don’t even have to question whether or not we are all feeling the full embrace of this lunation. Seatbelts have been tightly fastened this Aries season with a celebratory marriage of Uranus and Jupiter in Ta**us. A major celestial event bringing revolution on all fronts. What we invest our time in, what we love and how we move through the world is expected to be fundamentally rocked.

Wrapping up the first half of the years seasonal eclipse events and walking (running?) through April into Ta**us season. May offers some reprieve and notes of the changes we wish to connect in with. The culmination of desires, dreams, achievements, connections and authentic expressions in self and the mirror of relationships will begin to trickle into effect in the 3D shortly.

This full moon is about dropping over the cliff edge all the baggage that suddenly rocked up on your doorstep with a bad attitude demanding a home cooked meal and place to sleep. Wait, the problem is and was always you? You have the opportunity to change your ways and no one else holds that autonomy? Yup.

If you’re like me and had that W(`0`)W moment where the veil was lifted, disintegrated and shot up in flames right in front of your eyes.
Where now you have been shown what’s been lying under all that egoic discomfort of trying to get you to act in the same patterns you always have, clinging to the unruly discomfort of comfort in similarity while it quite truly depletes your vital force and distances you from your true alignment soul self, well this moon is for you to get down and familiar with your chord cutting ceremonies.
