The iconic Monarch butterfly is now officially an endangered species in North America. 🦋😔

Among the causes of their steep decline, the lack of milkweed (their caterpillar's host plant and exclusive food source) in undeniably the main one and by far. Together, we can reverse this course. Together, we can plant milkweed seeds and give monarchs a much needed breather.

Fall is the best season to plant milkweed. Our cold winters create physical and chemical reactions in milkweed seeds and increase their germination rates the following Spring. 🌱

You can order milkweed seeds now from our partner Lasclay (a great company by the way) on the link below and get an exclusive 30% discount with the following code: MONARCH30 (4 or more seed packets).

It's a small but very useful gesture, plus it makes a great gift for your loved ones!
Monarchs will surely thank you for it by paying you a visit next Spring 🦋🧡💪

A lot of questionable donation sites are going to pop up to help the Asheville area. This one is from my sister and some friends of hers who
Are living there right now. Please help! It is unbelievably horrible and is going to be decades before they are back. Jackie says it will be weeks, if not months, before they have Water, electricity, Internet, etc.

Hurricane Helene unleashed devastating flooding in the mountains of North Carolina. Here are ways to help local flood victims in Western North Carolina by donating relief funds or volunteering.

I don’t use a puppy - a puppy!! - during the massage of these typically ouchy places, but it *is* an idea! 💜

Thank you! Morti has his thunder jacket, puppy “pot” pulls for relaxation and a plan of action, in place by his humans, to help him make it through the insanity.

“My neck hurts.” Look at the complex network of muscles in this area; the work they’re asked to do for us kind of blows my mind!

Something to contemplate, for the many who arrive at my studio and entrust me with their hidden “stuff.” I invite you to metaphorically set it down while you’re here, and just be in a state of zen and self-care.

I just started reading a new book.

That in itself shouldn’t be too monumental except, 18 years ago when my son was born – a traumatic, NICU-filled start for him, and a post-partum filled time for me – I went from being a voracious reader to barely reading anything. It was like the anxiety of it all consumed my ability to find inner stillness. (Ironically, a time when I needed it most.)

AnyWho… The book that caught my eye is by Sarah Wilson, “First, we make the beast beautiful.” The cover is sublime and I’m on an octopus-kick, and it’s about anxiety, my BFF. 

But, I digress: it hooked me, page 3 with the following, “when God was handing out the Guide to Life, I was on the toilet.” I practically dropped the book and whipped off my readers (a lovely indicator of aging), and laughed aloud with a sense of relief. I have said virtually the same thing, since I can remember… and the reading of those lines makes me feel like my inner crazy doesn’t make me so different after all.

Can’t wait for page 4!
