✍️ This month’s newsletter is out ✍️

I wrote about rest, where we’re placing our energy right now, and shared a quick update along with a couple of easy practices you can weave into your days between sessions.

If you’re on the list, it should be waiting in your inbox (or possibly your spam folder).

And if you’re not, and this sounds like your kind of thing, you’re always welcome to join. Sign up at www.thefootalchemist.com. Any questions just reach out 🤗

“You don’t have to fight alone. I’ll hold the light with you.”

This reflects the intention behind my work — creating a space where people can feel relaxed and supported, without having to carry everything on their own.

Sometimes that’s what mental health care looks like too. 🤍

Thank you for this beautiful sweater and all you are, be and do 😘 🤗

Hygge — a word that’s new to me.

A friend recently used it to describe the vibes of my home studio, and since then I keep seeing it pop up. Cozy, calm, and at ease feels like a good fit.

I’ll be at the Cedar Market today & tomorrow from 10–4 — the final market of 2025.

In celebration of 2025 I will be offering Foot & Hand Alchemy mini sessions for $25. Short, relaxing sessions using hand & foot reflexology, intuitive touch, plus a heart card and crystal to take home.

I will also have few Crystals plus an oracle card message for you to choose from for $5. As well as gift certificates and a few remaining Foot Alchemist & RISE cards by Luri Hoffman — available while they last.

Whether you sit back for a session or just stop by for a free heart card, it’s all about offering the gift of relaxation during a full season.

Come say hi, I look forward to connecting! Samantha

Foot & Hand Alchemy is one way I offer relaxation and healing.

I work primarily from a reflexology approach through the feet and hands, and may include other supportive elements depending on what feels helpful in the moment. Each session is a chance to slow down, breathe, and give your body space to settle.

I often hear people say they didn’t realize how much tension they were holding until their body starts to relax.

This weekend, I’ll be offering mini Foot & Hand Alchemy sessions at the Cedar Community Market if you’re curious and want to experience it for yourself.

Come say hello 🤍

Hello September 🌻💛

It’s my birthday month, which always feels like the perfect time to slow down, celebrate the things I love, and refill my own cup. 🍵

This month’s newsletter is all about that “teapot reminder” — when we keep pouring for everyone else, we eventually run dry. But when we take a breath, add in some rest, or do the things that light us up, there’s always more to give.

Inside I shared:
☀️ A simple September pause practice
☀️ A reflexology tip for energy and circulation
☀️ A few favourite ways I’m resetting this season
☀️ Local update (Cedar Witches Market on Sept 13!)

If you’d like little seasonal notes like this dropped in your inbox each month, you can join my newsletter by visiting: www.thefootalchemist.com

Here’s to slowing down, celebrating favourite things, and remembering to refill your cup. 🌻

I wonder if whales know how excited some of us get just from catching a glimpse of their tail or body out in the water.

And yes — even from way out there. Shoutout to my dad for getting us a great set of binoculars 😄

It made me think… maybe the same thing happens with us. We don’t always realize how much we can light someone up — just by being ourselves or showing up in a small way.

When was the last time someone made your day without even knowing it?

Tag them or share below — let’s pass that good feeling on. 🤗 ❤️
