Wholehearted Pink is a deep rich pink that makes us feel as though love is the essence of the universe itself, joining us together as one. Possessing all the wisdom of a big-hearted grandmother when it comes to matters of love and emotional intelligence, Wholehearted Pink represents the heart of the Higher Self. Our Higher Self is the wise inner elder we are continually in the process of growing into, especially when we take the higher path in matters of love and service to others.

We could even call this colour ‘the heart of God’ or ‘God loving through us’. The heart of the Higher Self is wise, compassionate, unconditionally loving and gentle. This colour is like a badge of honour for the heart. Heart Chakra maturity can develop at any age, but naturally tends to appear in later years, simply due to a wealth of life experience. Traversing the depths and heights of love in all its various shapes and colours, we tend to emerge with a wiser heart. Regular heart-based meditation, service to others and a heartfelt connection with nature also encourage the presence of this frequency....

Wonderful first day back at work today. I think I poured 6 bottles of herbs all up, mixing blends for all kinds of conditions such as chronic cough, allergies, inflammation, insulin resistance, menopause, and insomnia. And included in most sessions was a little somatic aura therapy. Love my job!

Spirit Guide Painting progress shot number two, of wombat blissfully rolling in meadow:

This is the base coat of paint, just mapping position of wombat and basic light/shadow. Next I will do the same with the meadow, and add some background shadows and more interesting shades of green/brown. Especially fun will be the edge between wombat and grass, with some deeper shadows, and stealing back a little grassy light territory at the top of the head.

Found some more sundew on the way home. We use this one in herbal medicine and homeopathy too, not just as a flower essence. It’s an anti-tussive. This means anti-cough. Quite different to an expectorant which helps us cough gunk up from the lungs.

You really only want a bit of cough suppression when it’s excessive (leading to vomiting for example) and moreso when it’s to do with an unhelpful tickle in the throat rather than congested lungs that need clearing. The cough reflex is, after all, a wise bodily manoeuvre needed to expel what doesn’t belong. But as with fevers, what is balancing in just the right dose can become problematic when it’s excessive or goes on for too long.

Isn’t this sundew gorgeous?! Made my husband stop the car so I could get some photos of this beauty. The flowers can be white, pink or yellow. It’s a carnivorous plant- the base is a radiant pinwheel of green leaves with wee horseshoe shaped “cups” or mouths on the ends.. each one lined with tiny hairs or filaments tipped with sticky globules to lure the insects in.

This is this first time I’ve ever managed to get the flower and the base in the same photo! Got a few beauties.

Pity I didn’t have my flower essence kit with me so I could make a fresh remedy for the clinic. I already have this one but it’s good to renew it every few years. I use it for grounding and courage, for rising above what might otherwise get you down, and being able to see things from a broader/higher perspective. It’s one of the ingredients in my Ground Yourself herbal blend, along with herbs like chamomile, which has a wonderfully soothing effect on the nervous system.

Grounding can be described in many ways, one of which is being able to relax into your own skin, letting go of tension so you can be present rather than needing to zone out, numb or distract yourself with busyness and other addictions.

My holiday so far has been full of baking, wondeful conversations with family, book reading, book-making and now I’m starting a new painting!
