Affirmation: "Right Relationship begins to Flow with Self Love."

Water teaches us that before we can nurture others, we must first nurture ourselves. This Mother's Day, let's celebrate self-love and self-care, knowing that a healthy flow of love within ourselves allows us to build strong and loving relationships with those around us.

Whether it’s taking a quiet moment by the water, immersing in a soothing bath, or simply hydrating our bodies with a refreshing drink, let's embody the gentle strength and adaptability of water, as we honour mothers everywhere.

Reflect on this beautiful affirmation and share the flow of love today. Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible moms who fill our lives with endless love and care! 💙🌊💐

✨ Pause for a moment. Take a deep breath, and let your mind expand. Allow that expansion to welcome cleansing, purifying clarity and inspiration into your life. Envision the highest and best version of yourself and see that vision so clearly, that you can feel the air move . 🌟

The necessity of breathing deeply is foundational for healthy central nervous systems. Oxygenate your mind with pure, clean air and feel your body’s buoyancy. Fill your body with air by intentionally breathing into specific places. Study forms of Pranayama to learn how to increase your breathing capacity. Your respiratory system and your nervous system are tightly connected primarily through the brainstem, which houses the respiratory centers that control and adjust your breathing rate to meet your bodies needs.

Our breath is our life and is connected to our spirit and to our prayers. Whether we are singing, speaking, praying, or blowing our prayers onto offerings for the water or fire, recognizing the sacredness of your breath feels like a communion with spirit, a divine alignment of life and breath. 💫

May 5th is the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls.
The ReDress Project was created by Jaime Black to raise awareness of MMIWG. It draws attention to racialized and gendered violence, and serves to create a visual, emotional impact and a reminder of the thousands of Indigenous women and girls who have gone missing or murdered in Canada and the US.

There is a permanent display at the Canadian Museum for Human Rights In Winnipeg, Manitoba.

We remember today and everyday. 💔

Learning to craft botanical incense has opened a beautiful way to share my collection of attars, specialty aromatics, gums, resins, and mica. It’s one of my favorite creations. There is just something so deeply satisfying about working with each ingredient individually, and honouring its unique character.

Resins and gums such as frankincense, copal, palo santo, agarwood, and dragon’s blood are carefully crushed and powdered, then gathered into one bowl.

In another bowl, a blend of powdered flower petals, leaves, and needles is prepared, followed by the addition of drops of essential oils, attars, and specialty aromatics. Once both blends are complete, they are gently combined, becoming a unified, fragrant incense.

Botanical incense can be used in a few different ways:

Placed in a crucible over a hot charcoal puck, or atop a bed of dried sage, which helps to release a rich, sacred smoke (always use a fire-safe vessel).

Gently warmed in a copper bowl incense burner with a tea light, allowing the aroma to unfold without smoke.

Invite the rich and ethereal notes of frankincense, copal, dragon’s blood, palo santo, sandalwood, agarwood, cedar, calendula, lavender, rose attar, jasmine attar, and neroli/petitgrain into your space. Let their ceremonial presence encompass you in a deeply grounding and luxurious aromatic experience.

During my studies with Rosemary Gladstar, I began making this most nutritious and delicious herbal tea. One of our assignments was to create a wellness program for ourselves and I created this recipe as my coffee substitute. I make this tea for groups that I run, for friends and family. Everyone is always asking me to make it when they come over. I always have some in the fridge for guests.

Dandelion root is considered an Alterative, also known as a blood purifier. Alteratives alter the condition of the blood and support assimilation of nutrients. They also help to eliminate metabolic waste and they neutralize acidic conditions in the body, aiding in protein assimilation as well as being high in minerals and vitamins.

Chicory Root is a wonderful caffeine-free coffee substitute, rich in antioxidants and nourishing for healthy gut bacteria. Roasted Chicory root adds a robust toasty coffee flavour - without caffeine, reducing stress on the nervous system and helping to improve sleep.

It’s important to add that if you are pregnant or breast feeding it is best to avoid chicory root.

Cinnamon, Clove and Cardamom are all circulatory stimulants, which will support to cleanse and increase blood flow in the body, warming the digestive system and strengthening the cardiovascular system as well.

I like to add oat milk and honey or you may prefer to have it as it is if that is your preference. When storing in the fridge, you will keep it black.

Feel free to reach out with any questions on how to make the tea or suggestions on double decocting.

Essential oils are concentrated plant essences produced mainly by hydro/steam distillation, and also by expression (squeezing the rind of a fruit).

The definition of an Essential oil, as far as the industry goes, is that essential oils are extracted in as pure and natural a process as possible.

Other important considerations include how the plant was grown, harvested and distilled. Temperature is a factor in the distillation process so as not to damage the plants odiferous molecules by boiling at too high of a temperature. Slow and steady with a sanitized still and meticulous care are of utmost importance. After distillation, the trip to suppliers and ensuring integrity is upheld to not add, stretch or adulterate, compromising the purity of the essential oil is paramount. I have been told that a large portion of the essential oils on the market are stretched and adulterated.

There are a number of methods to extract aromatics from a plant and some involve using chemical solvents. In Aromatherapy, these products are not considered essential oils specifically, but may have more of a place in the perfume industry. C02 extracts have gained popularity and have been in use more frequently, however they are not specifically considered essential oils.

Over the past few years, I have enjoyed collecting absolutes and C02 extracts for my collection of aromatics. There are many absolutely beautiful essences that can be used to create signature scents, perfumes and colognes. Although I cannot speak for everyone in the aromatherapy industry, it is my belief that a differentiation is important in terms of defining what an essential oil is, as opposed to an absolute or a C02 extract. Thoughts?

Are there any aromatherapists out there interested in weighing in on this topic with me?

The quiet glow of a moonlit night holds a powerful invitation to slow down and restore. 🌙

The Moon’s steady 28-day cycle does more than govern the ocean's tides; it gently guides our own internal rhythms. Its cooling, receptive energy encourages us to pause, reflect, and embrace a more balanced, intuitive way of living.

At Amaru Aromatherapy, we draw deep inspiration from these natural, lunar cycles. Our ethically sourced essential oils and curated blends are intentionally crafted to help you harmonize with this nurturing energy. Whether you are diffusing calming notes of clary sage and lavender to prepare for a restorative night of sleep, or massaging our nourishing botanical blends into your skin, our products are designed to support your physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

By aligning your evening routines with the Moon, you can transform a simple habit into a sacred ritual of self-care.

We invite you to deepen your connection to these celestial rhythms. Read our latest blog post on the Moon's profound effects on our bodies, and explore our soothing collections at the link in our bio.
