Kitchen renovations are underway. 🤎

We are going for an unfitted Kitchen in our 110 year old house. If you aren’t familiar with what that is, it’s often characterized by its use of freestanding furniture, second hand or antique finds, and a look of individual workstations rather than built-in, wall-to-wall cabinets.

This style suits us better and offers us much more creative freedom. It takes time to gather or to build in this way and I plan on doing both. To be honest, we don’t have much of a budget for it at all, so it will have to take us time. Luckily I am a rather wild and unhinged scavenger, a ridiculously determined treasure hunter, and a self taught builder ~ DIYer so thankfully this lessens the financial burden tremendously.

I’ll begin building our workstation for the sink area soon with some beautiful super wide planked wood that I picked up from an old barn in Frenchtown. Excellent Facebook Marketplace find ✔️ if I do say so.

Things will come together over time and finding this first piece at to house our daily dish ware is a beautiful starting point and my inspiration to the look and feel of what’s to come.

did you know that Rose 🌹 is in all three products in our 3 part organic skincare routine?

Rose has always felt like both medicine and ritual…soft, but powerful. Using it on the skin in different forms allows its gifts to meet you in different ways.

🎨 𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐤 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐐𝐔𝐈𝐂𝐊𝐒𝐀𝐍𝐃

we grind and powder our Rose and blend it alongside other helpful herbs, this form becomes deeply soothing and gently toning. Rose is naturally anti-inflammatory and mildly astringent, helping calm redness, soften irritation, and refine the look of pores. It draws heat from the skin while leaving behind hydration and a subtle glow. A rose mask feels like a reset…especially when skin is stressed by weather, hormones, or fatigue.

💦 𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐭 𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐌𝐈𝐑𝐀𝐆𝐄

our rose hydrosol mist is pure refreshment. It instantly hydrates, balances pH, and supports your skin barrier throughout the day. Rose is helps reduce the appearance of puffiness and dullness, while its aroma gently steadies the nervous system. A few mists morning and night can soften fine lines by increasing surface hydration, and it layers beautifully under our Soma serum, Moon Drops, and Sun Drops.

💧 𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐮𝐦 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐒𝐎𝐌𝐀

When rose is infused into oil and blended into a botanical serum like our Soma, it becomes restorative and nourishing. Rose helps support elasticity, balances uneven tone, and encourages that supple, dewy texture we all love. It pairs especially well with all the other special herbs in our Soma blend, enhancing their absorption and bringing a long lasting luminous finish to the skin.

Rose works on more than the surface. It softens, strengthens, and invites radiance…always reminding us that our skincare is as functional as it is devotional. ♥️

Do you find Rose as helpful as we do?

Moving thought these final days of winter, when the grey skies and the soft light lingers just a little longer but the chill still settles deep in the bones. This is when I reach for my Desert mood balancing mist because it’s perfect for this in-between time, not quite winter, not quite spring…where patience and presence mean everything. 🖤

A soft veil of our Mood Mist can feel like a breath of brightness on these heavy Kapha days. Our BHAV mist is a warming + slightly spicy and 🍊 citrus forward blend of plant allies that lift, steady, and soothe the nervous system.

This little ritual 💦 helps bring me back into my body, back into the present moment, and back to enjoying the space in between.

Close your eyes. Mist above your crown, on your face, over your heart and then inhale slowly.

Allow it to carry the scent and the energy of the 🏜️ desert through the shadows. Let it be a reminder. As I sit here and watch the rain wash away the snow, I can feel both the light and myself returning. ✨

Manifesting Restful Sleep 🌙✨

Becuase we know it can be a challenge.

There is something sacred about preparing for sleep with a ritual of special herbs. It’s like coming to an agreement between your body, the rest it needs, and the night. 💫

Have you tried our SLEEPY HEAD tea? Please allow me to introduce you.

🍃 Passionflower gently untangles racing thoughts, and eases the nervous system into stillness.

🌼 Chamomile cradles the heart and belly, inviting in comfort and calm.

🌿 Mugwort whispers to the dream world, opening the doorway to deeper, more intuitive rest.

🪾 Licorice root nourishes and supports when you’ve been running on empty, helping the body feel steadied and replenished.

🪻 Lavender quiets the chatter and softens the edges of anxiety, like like dusk settling over the land.

🪵 Cinnamon bark brings warmth to the blend, improving circulation and helping the body feel safe and grounded.

🌱 Catnip soothes tension and quiets irritability, softening the edges of the day especially when stress has lodged itself in the belly or chest.

🌾 Oatstraw feeds a weary nervous system, mineral-rich and restorative for long-term resilience.

🌿 Lemon verbena lifts heaviness and melts stress, leaving a gentle brightness behind.

Together, these plants create more than just a tea, they create intention. When we sip them slowly, we are telling our bodies…it is safe to let go.

I wouldn’t want to renovate a kitchen along side anyone else. ♥️ Especially not while one is finishing up their Master’s Degree and the other is going through Perimenopause 😂

Happy Valentine’s Day my love. You’re the nails to my hammer, the screws to my drill, and the croissant 🥐 to my morning ☕️

As I navigate Perimenopause, I have found that with the right plant allies, this transition can feel grounded, supported, and even empowering. 🌿

As my estrogen and progesterone ebb and shift, my body is asking for deeper nourishment, steadier rhythms, and gentler support.

Hormonal changes can ripple through our nervous system, our sleep cycles, mood, skin, metabolism, and even our sense of identity. Am I right?!

This is why tending to this shift in our hormones during menopause isn’t about “fixing” something, it’s about restoring balance and I feel this is what we do best at Bhava. 🤎

Herbs have long walked beside women through this threshold. 🌱

Nourishing tonics like nettle and raspberry leaf paired with steadying Adaptogens such as Rhodiola and Eleuthero Root help buffer stress, which directly impacts hormonal balance.

We use herbs 🌱 like Black Cohosh, Vitex, and Wild Yam that have traditionally been used to ease hot flashes, mood fluctuations, and cyclical irregularity by gently supporting the endocrine system.

And then we mix in calming nervines like Spanish Sage and Motherwort that cradle the heart and soothe those anxious edges when sleep feels elusive.

Menopause is deeply connected to the nervous system. I feel this like no other. When my stress runs high, my symptoms often intensify. Do you agree?

I’ve found that herbal support works best not as a quick fix, but as part of my daily rhythm. Over time, my body has responded to consistency and nourishment.

This is the season of wise woman energy, a special time in our lives when intuition sharpens and clarity deepens. Our Second Spring herbal tinctures reminds us how to find equilibrium again.

Adaptogens work like steady hands 🍄‍🟫🌱 on the nervous system, helping the body meet stress without being pushed to the edge.

Taken as a💧tincture, like in our ADAPTOGEN MAGIC, these plants are delivered in a potent, easily absorbed form that the body recognizes quickly, offering gentle support when and where it’s needed most.

In the body, adaptogens help balance the stress response, supporting the adrenal system and encouraging more stable energy throughout the day. 🌀

Think less wired, less depleted. 🫶🏽

In the nervous system, they help soften the sharp edges of chronic stress, promoting resilience, mental clarity, and a deeper sense of calm. ✌🏽

Over time, they can support better sleep rhythms, improved focus, and a nervous system that feels less reactive and way more rooted.

Our Adaptogenic tincture doesn’t force the body in one direction. It helps restore balance by meeting you where you are, reminding the body how to regulate, adapt, and return to center.

Always Gentle. Restorative. Deeply supportive. 🌿

Rituals for this special threshold. We are a few days past the midpoint between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox. Which means we are that much closer to Spring 🌱

Winter is deep and present here. Even though we’ve been promised the return of the light, the shadows, the stillness, and the fatigue of the dark months are all still lingering. AND within the very same breath, something fresh is stirring below.

I often feel that living well and balanced is practicing the ability to hold two truths at once and this threshold is a perfect opportunity and reminder of this dance.

Cheers to the season of gestation where we SLOWLY begin to clear just enough space for what comes next.

In a society obsessed with over doing, here is a simple and slow counter-ritual, a candle lit meditation to remind us of that space.

🕯️
In a circle loving clockwise ⭕️ light a candle 🕯️ for each person + animal companion in your home as well as one to bless your home.

🥛
In the center of your circle place a cup of milk + milk alternative representing the abundance, new beginnings, and the fist stirrings of spring

❄️ or 🧊
In the center of your circle also place either snow or a cup of ice representing Winter’s end and the letting go of what you no longer want to carry

🔥
Light the candles one by one while setting your intentions for the upcoming Season

🫙
Once the candles have burned down, drink the milk, share it with your loved ones, or pour it over the earth 🤎

Does this sound like something you might try?

“I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship.” - Louisa May Alcott

Deep Winter has settled in the bones here on the east coast and I’m always reminded how much more it asks of our skin.

The cold, the wind, the dry indoor heat 🌀 all of these things pull moisture away, leaving our skin extra thirsty and tight. This is where a good serum like our MOON 🌙 DROPS becomes a helpful daily ritual.

Light yet deeply nourishing, it sinks in like rain 🌧️ to parched earth, delivering our herbal infused oil straight to where your skin needs it most.

This serum helps seal in hydration, protect the skin’s natural barrier, and keeps that soft, living glow ✨ intact all winter long.

It’s an extra layer of care during the dry and coldest days.

The scent alone will make you weak in the knees 😍

Put on my green linen dress and all my celebratory regalia for for Imbolc. 💚

It’s a crisp 19° degrees outside but I’m not fooled, the green world is slowly stirring beneath the snow.

Roots are remembering the sun and the bulbs are beginning their slow rise.

Today marks the midway point to Spring where the plants begin to awaken in spirit. Not just yet in leaf and bloom. I find this time to be a slow and meditative time of deep reflection, mystery, and magic.

I’m honoring Imbolc today by listening closely to the rosemary and the lavender still awake in my snow covered garden. To the dried nettle, catmint, and lemon balm steeping in my cup, and to the medicine of all the seeds I’ve collected that are resting patiently in the dark.

Did you know that our Elderberry carries the wisdom of thresholds and some of its story is printed for you to read on the back of the bottle. 🍇

Imbolc is a time to cleanse gently and bless intentionally. I’ll be burning smoke of mugwort 🌿 and rosemary to clear some of the stuck and stagnant Winter energy.

Lighting candles, infusing oils, enjoying a fire, making a feast, crafting, journaling, and wrapping myself up in warm wool today.

tend the fire, tend the body, tend the promise.

days like today help us remember that through all the pain, the grief, and all the sick and sad layers of unacceptable injustice that’s happening in the world… that we carry light, softness, and love within and that remembrance will help us light the way forward.

A celebration of slow awakening.
Of the light returning. 🕯️

Imbolc blessings my friends. May the ashes of our fires replenish, and the soil stir with the seeds of a brighter, softer, and more compassionate future for all. We desperately need it.
