Feel Them on the First 🩷

It’s the first of the month & your reminder to check yourself

A gentle reset for the year, awareness is one habit worth keeping

Take a few quiet moments today to check your breasts and chest area
Not for fear — but for awareness

Your body is changing all the time. What matters is knowing what’s normal FOR YOU!

Men can get breast cancer too
Partners matter. Know your own normal, and your partner’s too

Know the 8 signs and symptoms of breast cancer
It’s not just about lumps. Changes in skin, shape, ni**le, pain, or swelling all count

🤍 If something doesn’t feel right, get it checked

You owe that to yourself 🩷
Save it. Share it.

2025 you really were the cherry on top

Just when I thought I had reached the lowest ebb, I was still not quite there and you had one more lesson for me.

Things I’d not considered before, something taken for granted, assuming tomorrow will be intact and our bodies will keep on carrying us like they’ve always done. Until overnight, they don’t.

The profound loss of your health is truly devastating, when your body becomes unrecognisable, unreliable, where you once innately trusted without a moment’s thought, suddenly you’re fractured, cracked wide open between looking at who you are and the vessel that holds you, your body no longer a refuge but a place of uncertainty.

And as if this isn’t enough, you hand your body over, placing your life in the hands of others, the paradox of surrendering control in order to survive, while still trying to keep a firm grip on your destiny.

The brutality of treatment, taking you to the darkest of places, the depths of fear, relentlessly testing your spirit, your nervous system, your courage, your capacity to keep breathing. Stripping of your vitality, identity, momentum, the emptying out of you.

And then the adjustment, the permanent life changes, the reshaping of your existence and reworking of your very soul. A clarity that arrives uninvited and refuses to leave.

Tomorrow is not guaranteed. Not for any of us. And once you have stared that truth in the face, you cannot unsee it.

2025 I think… I thank you… I am still processing… 🎀

I carry this year in my bones now
Etched into every cell
I am not the same
And I never will be

F O R A G I N G 🌿🍂

✨ September the threshold where summer’s sweetness tips toward autumn’s depth. The hedgerows are glowing and the plants are whispering: gather now, store me, carry me through the darker days ahead.

🌱 Grateful for feeling able to get out and forage this week, before the blooms fade.

🌿 Elder, rosehips, nettle seed, yarrow & hawthorn – each one a guardian for this seasonal shift. The herbs of the turning, the bridge between light and dark, abundance and rest.

🍎 The last flush of the freshest herbs and the first gathering of autumn’s medicine chest. A time of gratitude, of careful storing, of honouring the plants who walk with us into the darker half of the year.

✨ September whispers: harvest wisely, give thanks, and trust that what you gather now will carry you through the turning.

🍂 How are you honouring this shift of season? What’s calling you from the hedgerows?

H E A L I N G 🤍✨

✨ Five full days in the most magical container with these special earth angels ✨

We first met 27 years ago, in the desert, living in a Bedouin village at the foot of Mount Sinai. What began there has blossomed into a lifelong, enduring spiritual friendship, one that has carried us through challenges, distance, new families, loss, grief, and love.

This week, we reunited. We looked deeply into the whites of each other’s eyes, exactly when connection and healing were most needed. Together, we went deep into faith, cleansing, releasing, gathering, and manifesting miracles. We have been held. We have been healed.

Illness may have sparked this realignment, but wellness is what will result. We dreamed and planned what comes after illness — and the future feels so full of light with these magical humans in union with me.

As I move through the final treatment hurdles in the month ahead, I feel deeply blessed to be held by their medicine, love, and care.

This journey has also revealed the extraordinary kindness and support of so many other beloved friends and circles. I am humbled, grateful, and profoundly blessed.

I honour this extraordinary friendship

I am healed 🤍

Amen. ✨🙏

🌿💜 Gentle Strength for the Overwhelmed Heart 💜🌿

Lavender isn’t just a pretty scent or a calming cup of tea. She’s a steady hand on the shoulder, a deep breath in chaos, a floral balm for the frayed edges of your being. ✨

Soft yet strong, she weaves her way into the nervous system like a lullaby — comforting, cooling, and kind. When the world feels too much, lavender says: come home to yourself.

💤 Nervine relaxant – Eases anxiety, tension & overstimulation
🩷 Soothes emotional unrest – Especially grief, fear, or heartbreak
🌸 Gentle sleep support – Without the heaviness of deeper sedatives
🔥 Calms inflammation – Especially where stress is stored in the body
🪻 Balances the mood – Especially for sensitive or empathic souls
💜 Uplifts the spirit – When hope feels far away

Lavender is especially powerful when the nervous system is exhausted yet alert — the kind of wired-tired that comes from holding too much for too long. She doesn’t push or sedate — she invites rest, co-regulates with breath, and reminds us that we don’t have to carry it all.

✨ My favourite ways to work with her:
💧 Lavender hydrosol mist for emotional first aid
🫖 Infusion or tea with lemon balm for daytime calm
🌙 Essential oil in a diffuser or pulse points before sleep
🛁 Bath blend with magnesium & rose petals to unwind
🧘🏽‍♀️ Combined with breathwork, journaling, or sacred rest practices

Lavender whispers: Softness is not weakness. It’s where healing begins.

She’s a true ally for anyone moving through hard news, big emotions, or just trying to make it through the day with grace. 🌿

💜 Have you called on lavender lately? How does she hold you?

✨ You are not here to shrink, to dim, or to be boxed in by fear, prognosis, or expectation

✨ You are here to rise — even when it feels hard, even when your strength looks different than it used to

For anyone facing battles no one else can see...
For the souls carrying news that shook the ground beneath them...
For those that face daily limiting boxes others put you in…

THIS ONE IS FOR YOU

I hear you, I see you, I know it!

“Do not be limited by the boundaries others have set for you.”

Did you need to hear this today? 🌿💛

🌼☀️ Calendula: Sunshine in a Flower, Healing in Every Petal 💛🌿

My skin needs this beautiful healer now more than ever—her soothing, gentle medicine to calm dry, sore skin. Gentle yet powerful, calendula is one of the most versatile healers in herbalism. She brings warmth, movement, and deep restoration—inside and out. ✨

Her energy is like a hug from the sun: bright, cleansing, and full of love.
Calendula is a true herbal multitasker. 🌼

✨ How I love to use her:
💧 Infused oil for skin healing & massage
🌿 Tea to support lymph, gut & immune health
🌼 Tincture for gentle detox + mood support
🧴 Salves & creams for cuts, bites, scars & rashes

Calendula reminds us that healing doesn’t have to be harsh.
It can be soft. It can be slow. It can come with golden petals and the smell of summer. ☀️💫

Do you grow calendula or work with her medicine?
She’s truly one of the herbal world’s greatest gifts. 🌿

💫
We must learn to listen
To the land beneath our feet
To the stories woven in its soil
💫
The trees, the rivers, the winds
All have something to say
Listen
💫
What does the earth need from us?
What wisdom does she whisper in the quiet moments?
💫
“We must learn to listen to the land, to hear its stories and its needs.”

☀️ Sun Stand Still — the longest day, the peak of light, the turning point in the wheel of the year 🌻

At this sacred time, the sun traces its highest, longest path through the sky — and we, too, are invited to rise. 🌅

☀️ Harness the light. Embrace your power. Step into your full radiance.
This is the time to tune into your inner fire and the polarities that dance within and around you — light and shadow, yin and yang, rest and action.

🔥 Light a fire (literally or metaphorically) to honour the sun, to burn away what no longer serves, and to celebrate the warmth, the fullness, the abundance.

🌿 Reclaim your connection to the wild world — she is in full bloom, speaking in petals, in birdsong, in sunrays. All is visible now. All is illuminated. For the seekers, the healers, the dreamers: receive her wisdom.

🌾 Cyclical Living Practices remind us: we are not separate. We are woven into this rhythm.

Take a moment.
Breathe in the golden light.
Speak your truth aloud.
Dance. Sing. Rest. Be witnessed.

✨ The solstice is a portal — what will you leave behind, and what will you call in?

🌞🌸🔥

💫
We must learn to see
The beauty in all things alive
Not just those that serve us now
💫
Every leaf, every creature, every root
Has a purpose, a place, a story
Listen
💫
What do we miss when we only see what serves us?
What wonders lie in the unseen, the unappreciated?
💫
“We must learn to see the beauty and value in all living things,
Not just those that serve our immediate needs.”

Love Thy Liver 💛

In challenging times, I feel blessed to be able to call on my training as a herbalist, and call upon our abundant plant allies for gentle herbal support for life’s heavier seasons 🌿

And so Love Thy Liver has birthed, a tender offering for our body’s inner alchemist. ☕🌿

🦁 Dandelion Leaf
🌱 Burdock Root
💚 Linden Leaf
🌼 Lemon Balm
🌾 Milk Thistle Seed
🍃 Nettle Leaf

Carefully chosen not to push, but to support—offering nourishment, resilience, and grace in times of strain.

Our liver is not just a physical filter—it’s deeply connected to how we process the world. Love Thy Liver honours that, helping to come home to ourself with clarity and care. 💛

💫 The body knows what to do—with a little help from her friends.

Thank you Thank you Thank you 🍵🌿
